  LAMBERT BROMMER owns and farms a half section of land in Grand Prairie

township, where he has lived for the last eleven years. He was born in Emden,

Germany, Oct. 18, 1860, the son of Lambert and Mattie (Foss) Brommer. The

father, who was a farmer, was born in 1813 and died in his native land in 1897.

The mother is still living in Emden. She was born in 1826.



  Lambert was raised on his father's farm, secured an education in his native

land and resided there until 1882. He landed in New York on May 23 of the last

named year and located permanently in Logan county, Ill., where he resided seven

years, working out at farm work. After spending one year working in Barton

county, Kansas, he returned to Logan county and for two years more worked on the

farm. He then returned to his old home in Germany, and after spending the winter

there, came back and made his home in Lyon county, Iowa. He farmed on rented

land there five years. Coming to Nobles county in 1897, he bought the half

section of land on sections 15 and 14 and has ever since been engaged in farming
it.



  Mr. Brommer was married at Rock Rapids, Iowa, Feb. 13, 1891, to Lena Freeks,

who was born in Illinois. She died Oct. 30, 1903. To Mr. and Mrs. Brommer were

born eleven children, all of whom live at home with their father.
