Holzer, Edgar R. (page 361), who is obtaining good financial results from
the energetic cultivation of a farm of 160 acres in section 2, Elgin
Township, was born in Oakwood Township, Wabasha County, Minn., in
December, 1884, son of Adolph and Chloe (Marshall) Holzer. He was educated
in the school of his district in Oakwood Township, and subsequently until
1906, worked for his father. He then rented 280 acres of the home farm,
which he operated as a general farmer for two years. After that he took a
farm of 120 acres in Oakwood Township, which he operated under rental for
a year, at the end of that time coming to his present place, which also he
rented. In section 1 he intends to make his home for the future. He has
begun a series of improvements, having erected a fine basement barn, 38 by
76 feet, the erection of a house being planned by him for next year. He
was married November 20, 1907, to Catherine Harlan, daughter of Mr. And
Mrs. Charles Harlan. The issue of this marriage is five children: Byrl A.
born August 17, 1909; Eunice M., December 25, 1910; Ruth R., May 25, 1912;
Harlan M., October 8, 1914, and Thomas E., January 20, 1919.
