Fred A. Berg, farmer, section 20, Maple Grove Township, was born on the
place where he now lives, Sept. 13, 1882, son of Anton and Mary Berg. He
received his early education in Hillsdale Village and worked for his father
until 1911. Then in 1912 he bought the home farm and has since devoted his
time to its improvement and development. He now carries on mixed farming
and dairying, making a specialty of a fine herd of Holstein cattle and a
good drove of Duroc-Jersey swine. Mr. Berg was married December 16, 1908,
to Emma Horn, daughter of John and Alie (Romaine) Horn, natives of Indiana,
who now live in Arland Township, this county. Mr. and Mrs. Berg have five
children: Mildred G., born June 27, 1909; Anna E., born Nov. 3, 1910; Lyle
E., born June 21, 1912; Thora, born Aug. 19, 1917; and Lloyd M., born Feb.
4, 1920. The family faith is that of the Baptist Church.
