HERMAN & ANNA HAGEMAN FAMILY

Herman Hageman, son of Fritz and Dorothea Hageman, married Anna Gress on November 11, 1911. They lived on the Burckal farm on Warrenville Road for 3 years. In 1914 they moved to the Hobson farm on Hobson Road, and lived there for 5 years. The Emma T. Wood farm was their next move in 1918, and they bought the farm in 1949. They had 25 dairy cows, fed steers, raised hogs, chickens, ducks, and geese; at one time they even had goats. When they retired in 1955, they built a little Cape Cod house on the farm.

Herman passed away on June 17, 1968, and Anna still resides in her house on the farm. Their son Delbert works the farm since his parents retired. 

To this union were born five children: Maybelle (deceased), Dorothy (Arthur Stafeldt), Clara (LaVern Jackson), Delbert (Beverly Baish), and Bernice (Ken Yeater). There are 5 grandchildren and 3 great-grandchildren.
