         MARTIN ALLEMANN, one of the leading farmers of Montana township,
       Buffalo county, owner of a farm of 400 acres, his residence lying
       in section 25, was born in Switzerland, March 16, 1868, son of
       CHRIST and URSULA (MEILI) ALLEMANN. His parents, who never came
       to this country, are now deceased. Their children were: GEORGE,
       now deceased; ELIZABETH, deceased; CHRIST, who resides in Montana;
       FRANK, who is living in Switzerland; URSULA, who died in Billings,
       Mont.; ANNA, residing in Switzerland; ROSA, deceased; two who died
       in infancy; MARTIN, subject of this sketch; a son, who died in
       Switzerland, and MARGUERITE, who is living in Switzerland. MARTIN
       ALLEMANN grew to manhood in his native land, where he served some
       time as a soldier in a cavalry regiment. He was in his twenty-second
       year when he came to the United States, locating in Buffalo county
       in 1890. He engaged in farm work here and for a while was similarly
       occupied in Billings, Mont., where his eldest child was born. In
       1903 he returned to Buffalo county, Wisconsin, and bought the farm
       on which he now lives - a farm of 400 acres, 150 acres of which are
       cleared, the remainder being covered with timber. Here MR. ALLEMANN
       is engaged in general farming, making a specialty of dairying and hog
       raising, his cattle being of the Red Poll variety. He has made exten-
       sive repairs on his buildings, which are now all in good condition,
       and has taken rank among the successful and substantial farmers of
       his township. He is part owner of a threshing outfit and is a stock-
       holder in the Garden Valley Creamery. On April 16, 1898, MR. ALLEMANN
       was united in marriage with URSULA CHRIST, who was born in Montana
       township, March 18, 1878, daughter of CONRAD and MARGARET CHRIST. He
       and his wife are the parents of 8 children: LILY, born Dec. 26, 1899;
       CONRAD, March 23, 1902; EMIL, April 14, 1904; CHRIST, April 29, 1906;
       ROSE, Dec. 14, 1908; URSULA, Sept. 6, 1911; MARTIN, July 15, 1914,
       and ALLEN, born June 12, 1918, all of whom are residing at home.
