From the 1925 History of Dunn County.
 
EMIL LINK, a well known farmer in the town of Spring Brook, was born in this 
town Feb. 3, 1896, son of Henry and Lena (Nehm) Link.  The father, Henry 
Link, also was born in this town, attended school here, and helped his 
parents on their farm until he grew to manhood, after which for a number 
of years he operated different farms in the town of Spring Brook.  In 1914 
he bought 160 acres in Section 12, a farm that he had conducted for seven 
years.  Selling it in 1921, he moved to Black River Falls, where he resided 
for one year, moving at the end of that time to St. Paul, where he is now 
living.  He and his wife were the parents of three children:  Albert, born 
Jan. 9, 1892; Ben, June 24, 1893, and Emil, Feb. 3, 1896, as already mentioned.  
Emil Link was reared and educated in his native town of Spring Brook and 
remained at home assisting his parents until his marriage, Dec. 22, 1921, to 
Elizabeth Ausman, daughter of John and Elizabeth (Schweitzer) Ausman.  He and 
his wife are the parents of two children, Irma L. and Kenneth J.  The family 
are affiliated with the M. E. Church in Menomonie.
