Nehring, George (p. 692), who owns and until recently operated a farm of
150 acres in section 21, Chester Township, was born in Hanover, Germany,
February 21, 1863. He grew to manhood in his native land, where he was
married December 22, 1882, to Magdalena Zuhling. In 1905, with his wife
and family, he came to America, and to Wabasha County, Minn., settling in
Chester Township, where until 1912 he operated different farms. He then
bought his farm in section 21, Chester Township, on which he successfully
carried on general farming and stock raising until August, 1920. He then
rented the farm to a tenant and moved to section 19, where he is now
living retired. He is a member of St. John's Lutheran church. Mr. and Mrs.
Nehring have had ten children, all of whom were born in Germany, as
follows: Henry, November 30, 1883; John, December 30, 1884; Christ,
December 26, 1887; George, April 18, 1890, Mary, July 26, 1892; Henry,
November 26, 1894; Gesiana, December 13, 1896; Katherine, January 12,
1899; Sophia, June 12, 1902; and Louis, April 13, 1904. The second Henry
mentioned died April 30, 1910, at the age of 16 years. Katherine died
October 23, 1918, in her nineteenth year. Gesiana is now the wife of
Albert Grote, a farmer in Bear Valley, and Mary the wife of Fred Arendt of
Zumbrota.
