Diming, Jr., Frank (page 367), who is engaged in mixed farming, including
stock raising and truck farming, in Elgin Township, is a native of Wabasha
County, having been born in the City of Wabasha, December 8, 1881, son of
Frank and Margaret (Knoll) Diming. He acquired his education in a district
school in Oakwood Township, this county, and was trained to agricultural
pursuits on his parents' farm, working for his father until 1907. He then
rented his present place, a farm of 120 acres in sections 11 and 12, Elgin
Township, which he bought in 1911. He has improved the farm by repairing
the house and buildings, and has also built a garage. His operations have
been industriously pursued and have netted him good returns. Mr. Diming's
marriage occurred September 22, 1908, his bride being Mary Angelbeck,
daughter of Mr. and Mrs. Henry Angelbeck of Conception. This union has
been blessed by six children: Margaret, born August 19, 1909; Raymond,
November 15, 1910; Dorothy, March 27, 1912 (died June 17); Leo, April 27,
1914; Eleanor, November 16, 1915, and Alvin, October 18, 1918. Mr. Diming
and his family are members of the Catholic church, and he belongs also to
the Knights of Columbus.
