OLE LECY (1879)

Ole Lecy has spent almost his entire life in Sioux Agency township, where he
is now engaged in farming. He was born in Adams County, Wisconsin, and when
less than one year of age was brought to the county by his parents, Jens C.
and Annie (Quam) Lecy.

Ole was educated in the district school and lived on his father's farm until
1903. Then he went to Saskatchewan, Canada, took a homestead, secured title
to it, and engaged in farming there six years. The he returned to Yellow
Medicine, although he still owns his land in the north country. Upon his
return Mr. Lecy lived at home a short time, erecting buildings on his
present place, the northeast quarter of section 9, which he rents from his
father.

Mr. Lecy was married January 26, 1902, in Sioux Agency township, to Annie
Waller who was born in the township September 21, 1882. They have six
children named Elmer, Alfred, Etta, Orien and Orda (twins) and Kermit.
