347            HISTORY OF WRIGHT COUNTY

Benne Rozenberg, an enterprising farmer of Corinna township, was born 
in Paterson, N. J., June 18, 1869, son of Henry and Dirky (Dykhausen) 
Rozenberg, who had come to America the previous year, and in 1873 moved 
to Pella, Iowa, where they still live. Benjamin Rozenberg received a 
good education in the schools of his neighborhood, and for several 
years worked out as a farm employe in the vicinity of Pella, Iowa. 
Then he rented various farms in Marion county, the county in which 
Pella is located. It was in 1908 that he came to Wright county and 
bought 120 acres of land in sections 13 and 14, Corinna township, 
where he now resides. He has brought his characteristic energy to bear 
upon the problems of farm life, and success in abundant measure has 
crowned his efforts. He has remodeled and repainted the house, and 
has built a splendid new barn. This barn is 36 by 60 feet, with a 
basement, equipped with eighteen patent stanchions, a litter carrier, 
and other conveniences. The capacity is thirty-five cattle, eight 
horses and sixty tons of hay. Mr. Rozenberg carries on general farming 
and makes a specialty of Shorthorn cattle. While living in Iowa, Mr. 
Rozenberg served as a member of the school board. Mr. Rozenberg was 
married March 9, 1896, to Jennie Hulleman, daughter of Rick and 
Henrietta (Mol) Hulleman, who lived on a farm near Pella, Iowa. 
Mr. and Mrs. Rozenberg have six children: Henry, born December 3, 
1896; Hattie, born September 20, 1898; Rick, born April 12, 1902; 
Dirk, born November 7, 1904; Albert, born April 26, 1911; and Mary, 
born March 7, 1914.
