   HENRY KORUPP was born in Germany, January 6, 1852, and came to Wisconsin in

1880. He came to Faulk county on October 26, 1885. He married Miss Ida Kahn, who

was born of German parentage, in the state of Wisconsin. To them have been born

six children, four of whom are now living. Hulda, is married to William Wagner,

a resident of the township of Myron, in this county; Leo, Florence and Alone,

who are yet a part of the family circle.



    Fifteen years ago Mr. Korupp purchased one quarter section, a part of his

homestead. Here the drought, the hot winds and hail destroyed the crops, the

cold stormy winters, the scarcity of fuel to keep warm, made one continuous

struggle. But a heroic effort was made and today there is a change of

conditions. To that quarter section he has added four more and erected a fine

set of buildings. Four hundred acres are under cultivation, all necessary farm

machinery, fifteen fine horses, and forty head of neat stock and twenty hogs,

help to keep up the fertility of his well improved farm.
