| Abstract | Translation of the memoirs and testimony of Friedrich Herman Konrad Bueker (Fred Harmon Conrad Buker), "a progressive and successful farmer of Section 19, Warner Township," Clark County, Wisconsin. Born in 1840 in Langenholzhausen, Fuerstentum Lippe, Germany, he came with his parents and siblings to Quebec in 1847 (a sister died on the voyage and was buried at sea). From Quebec the family traveled to Milwaukee and from there to Sheboygan. In 1862, he enlisted in Company C, 27th Wisconsin Volunteers, serving for three years. In 1865, he married Charlotte Schaper, also a native of Germany. |
