Conrad, Paul, farmer, was born in the same place as his brother above
(Frank Conrad), in April 1848. He was but eight years old when his father
brought him to the United States, and his training has been the same as
that of his brother, described above. In 1872 he bought a farm near Lake
City, in Goodhue county, where he lived six years. He then sold out and
purchased one-fourth of section 20, Chester, where he now resides. He
began in this state with nothing but his hands, and is now independent. He
was married in February, 1872, to Catharine Poncelet, a native of
Luxemburg. Their children were born as follows, William, April 27, 1873;
Frank, March 22, 1875; Mary, February 14, 1877; Annie, March 31, 1879;
Rosa, December 13, 1880; Susie, January 21, 1882. All are baptized in the
Roman Catholic church.
