Peter W. Null, farmer, P O Ironwood, Barron county, was born in Canada, April 28, 1852, and is a son of Edmund and Libby (Sweet) Null, who early came to Houston county, Minn., and still follow farming. Mr. Null early in life learned the carpenter's trade, and when Rice Lake was still in its infancy (1875) he came here and for ten years there were few men who worked more faithfully than did he. For several years while in Rice Lake he was in the employ of Knapp, Stout & Co. as carpenter. Six years ago he moved on their Cedar Lake farm, which comprises 1,000 acres of tillable soil. He employs ten men the year round. August 29, 1879, he married Miss Bertha Heuer, whose parents have resided here for about fifteen years, and now live south of Stanley. To this union have been born two children: Frank and Mabel. His wife is a member of the Lutheran church, while he is a Presbyterian. He is identified with the I. O. O. F. and the A. O. U. W. In politics he has ever upheld the principles of democracy. -Transcribed from the "Historical and Biographical Album of the Chippewa Valley Wisconsin, 1891-2", page 922.
