         EDWIN ACCOLA, a well-known farmer and dairyman of Alma town-
       ship, Buffalo county, having a fine farm in section 16, was born 
       in Alma township, Jan. 5, 1881, son of PAUL and MARIE (SAXER) 
       ACCOLA, his parents being natives of Switzerland, who settled 
       in Alma township, Buffalo county, in 1856. He resided with them 
       until arriving at the age of 23 years, and then began an indepen-
       dent career by purchasing a farm in section 16, Alma township, 
       this county, on which he lived for about six years, taking his 
       present farm in 1909. Its buildings and equipment are all in 
       modern style, the former including a cement basement barn, 40 
       by 70 feet in size, and a good tile silo. MR. ACCOLA devotes 
       considerable attention to dairying and has a good herd of milch 
       cows. The farm contains 416 acres, of which about 100 acres are 
       under cultivation. MR. ACCOLA is numbered among the enterprising 
       and well to do citizens of his township. In politics he is a 
       Republican. He was married, Oct. 29, 1904, to CLARA LEHMAN, who 
       was born in Alma township, Jan. 3, 1884, daughter of HENRY and 
       URSULA (WALD) LEHMAN. Her father was a native of Saxony, Germany, 
       and her mother of Alma township, Buffalo county, Wisconsin. They 
       are now retired and are living in Alma, but still own the farm on 
       which they resided for about 37 years. Their children were: ELLA, 
       CLARA, ANNA, HENRY, OLIVIA, ROY, AUGUST, MAY, ALVINA and WILMA, 
       all of whom are now living.
