| (Witness) Bio | 1912 History of Linn County, Missouri - page 273 WILLARD WOLFE Having devoted the whole of his life from his youth to farming, and made a study of the business in all its bearings, Willard Wolfe, of Brookfield township, has become a master of his occupation and one of its best representatives in Linn county. Side issues have never diverted him from his main purpose, and his devotion has therefore been wholly given to that; and, as he has looked upon it as his work for life, he has been energetic and thoughtful in his efforts to secure the best returns for his labors and make his farm yeild up its full tribute of productiveness in obedience to his masterly and persuavise hand as a husbandman. Mr. Wolfe is a native of Knox county, Illinois, where his life began on March 16, 1870. He is a son of Warren and Sarah E. (Buck) Wolfe, and a brother of Frank M. Wolfe, postmaster of Marceline, in a sketch of whom to be found in this volume, the family history is given. He was but four years old when the familyh moved to this state, and as he grew to manhood, was educated, married and has passed all his mature years in Missouri, he is practically a Missourian, and is as devoted to the institutions, the people and the enduring welfare of the state of his adoption as he ever could have been to that of his birth. No worthy undertaking involving the good of his thwnship or county, or the benefit of their residents ever goes without his active and effective aid. No public interest of any kind in his locality fails to engage his attention and his energetic service in its behalf, and no mental, moral or social agency at work among its people for their betterment lacks his cordial and servicable support. He is a public spirited citizen, even though a modest one, and the residents of the county warmly esteem him as such, in as great measure as they admire him as an excellent and representative farmer, whose work is a credit to the whole region in the midst of which it is carried on. Mr. Wolfe was married on March 29, 1893, to Miss Lila J. Curtis, a daughter of T. J. and M. C. (Witt) Curtis, residents of Linn county for over fifty years. Eight children have been born in the Wolfe household, and all of them are living. They are: Inez, Jasper, Elmer, Earl, Ethel, Otis, Ralph and Grace. To the present time (1912) the family circle is unbroken, as all the children are still living under the shelter of the parental rooftree. In politics Mr. Wolfe votes with the Republican party and works for its success, but he is not an active partisan with any desire for the rewards of party service in the way of public office. He is a Republican from the firm belief in the principles of the party, and works for it on the conviction that its supremacy would be the best thing for the county, the state and the nation, and in their welfare he is always deeply and intelligently interested. He and the members of his family are well and favorably known in all parts of the county and enjly the good will and respect of all its people of every class and condition, which they fully deserve from every point of view and in reference to all the relations of life.5 |
