Author: History Grundy County 1882

Daniel Roeder, farmer, P. O. Dwight, was born in Prussia, Germany, and came to 
America in 1857, and lived in La Salle County, Ill., for nearly four years, 
when he returned to Germany, coming back to America in 1861, bringing his 
family with him. He rented land and farmed in La Salle County until 1869, when 
he moved onto his present farm, which he had bought the year before. He now 
has 240 acres of well-improved land, which represents the result of his 
industry and frugality since coming to America. He was educated in the German 
schools, and is Republican in politics. He is a member of the Lutheran Church. 
His father, Henry Roeder, was a farmer in Langenstein, R. G. B. Z., Cassel, 
Germany. Mr. Roeder has nine children - seven boys and two girls. Those by his 
first wife, whom he married in Germany, are Stephen, born in 1843; and Henry, 
born in 1851. The remaining seven are by the present wife, viz., John, born in 
1855; Balcer, in 1857; Elizabeth, in 1861; Lena, in 1864; William, in 1866; 
Leonard, in 1870; and George, in 1873.
