Gregor, James A. (p. 334), a prosperous farmer residing in section 16,
Oakwood Township, was born in Elgin Township, Wabasha County, Minn., July
15, 1882, son of John and Rose (Wurst) Gregor. His education was acquired
in the district school, and he worked on his parents' farm until he was 21
years old. Then he bought his present farm of 230 acres in section 16,
Oakwood Township, which he has improved considerably, having put up every
building on the place except the house and the barn, which he remodeled,
making it 36 by 80 feet, with a full basement. His farm is well stocked
with Shorthorn cattle, Duroc-Jersey hogs and a good grade of sheep, and he
follows diversified farming with good financial results. He is a member of
the Farmers' Shipping Association, and is affiliated in either a business
or fraternal way with the Massachusetts Mutual Insurance Co., the
Equitable Fraternal Union of Wabasha, and the Modern Woodmen of America at
Millville. Mr. Gregor was married February 23, 1905, to Elizabeth Shade,
who was born in Glasgow Township, Wabasha County, June 23, 1884. He and
his wife have one child, Beulah R., who was born October 30, 1916. They
are affiliated religiously with the Evangelical Lutheran church.
