         RICHARD GAGE, hotel, Hilbert. Born in Oneida Co., N.Y.,
       Feb. 25, 1822. He came to Wisconsin in 1847, settling in 
       Green Lake County first, but removing to Calumet in 1848, 
       he bought a farm in town of Chilton, which he held till 
       1873; while there he was elected to several of the town 
       offices. Having bought a farm in Rantoul Town, he moved 
       to Hilbert in 1872, being one of the first settlers in 
       the place. Besides his farm here he owns 620 acres in 
       Oconto County, and valuable property in the village. He 
       is also proprietor of the Junction House. In 1853, he 
       married Miss SIMMONS of Oakfield. They have a family of
       ten children - ELLEN, ANGY, LAWSON, CLINTON, IDA, ALICE, 
       ORVILLE, RHODA, ADDIE and HENRY. Mr. GAGE has held some 
       school offices since coming to Hilbert.
