William R. Cuthbert, Section 23, Barron Township, is said to have one of
the best equipped farms in Barron County. It consists of 80 acres of well
tilled land, on which he has erected a fine set of buildings, the house
being modern in every particular, with electric lights, running hot and
cold water and other conveniences, while the barn has electric lights, and
James and Drew equipment. His fine herd of registered and high grade
Holsteins is headed with blooded sires, and his Poland-China swine are of
registered breed. He is a stockholder in the Barron Co-operative Creamery
and is interested in other public ventures. He has done good work as a
member of the schoolboard and also did capable service in filling out an
unexpired term as town supervisor. Mr. Cuthbert was born in La Crosse
County, this state, son of William and Isabelle (Hemstock) Cuthbert. He
received his education in his native county and came to Barron County with
his parents in 1897. In 1901 he rented the home farm and in 1903 bought it,
and the next year rented it out, returning to it in 1905. He cleared 25
acres of the place and made various improvements. In 1908 he sold out and
purchased his present place. Mr. Cuthbert was married Nov. 28, 1901 to
Millie Gilbertson, who died Nov. 13, 1904, leaving a daughter, Lillian I.,
born Jan. 21, 1903, who now lives with the grandmother in Colorado. Mr.
Cuthbert was married Oct. 18, 1905, to Anna L. Voll, who was born Aug. 30,
1879, daughter of Louis and Emma (Mogler) Voll, natives respectively of
Germany and Wisconsin.
