The representatives of the agricultural industry in Butler county, classified by their efficiency, industry and progressiveness, measure up in their standards to an equal position with the farmers of any section of the Miami valley. Among them there are leaders, who, in their work and their citizenship, are entitled to more than passing mention, and among these is found August W. Burkhardt, of Hanover township, the owner of what is known as the old Smiley place, of 209 acres. Mr. Burkhardt was born on a farm in Lemon township, Butler county, Ohio, near the town of Monroe, January 8, 1865, being a son of Mathias and Kate (Lutz) Burkhardt. The parents were natives of Germany, but were single when they emigrated to the United States, meeting and being married at Hamilton, Ohio. After their union they removed to a farm in Lemon township, where they resided for several years, then goingto Lesourdsville, where they lived nineteen years. Eventually they located at their present home, in St. Clair township, this county, where they are living in comfortable circumstances, as a reward for their long years of faithful and industrious agricultural work. They are the parents of the following children: August W.; Christian, and Edward, who reside with their parents; Louisa, the wife of George Brotzman, of Hamilton; Catherine, the wife of William Phillips; Ernest and Fred, residing with their parents; Jacob, who married Emeline Manrod, also at home; and Amelia, the wife of William Hentzlemann, of Hamilton county. August W. Burkhardt attended the country schools of Butler county and remained under the parental roof, assisting his father with his agricultural operations, until he was twenty-six years of age, at which time he was united in marriage with Mary Betz, of Reily, Ohio, daughter of Jacob and Mary (Snider) Betz, both of whom are now deceased. Mr. Betz was for some years a Butler county farmer, and in later life removed to Preble county, where he and his wife passed away. Mr. and Mrs. Burkhardt became the parents of four children: Louisa, who married Cecil Keller, a farmer of Oxford township; Edward, associated in farming with his father, who married Elsie Beckmire; Eleanora, the wife of Roy Beckmire, of Hamilton, with one son, Robert; and Elsie, the wife of Henry Brandly, with one son, Earl, living near Kitchell, Ind. After his marriage, Mr. Burkhardt located on a farm in St. Clair township, where he resided for several years, then going to Fairfield township which was his home until 1911. In that year he purchased the farm upon which he now resides, in Hanover township, a tract of 209 acres known as the old Smiley place. He has made numerous valuable improvements on this property, upon which he carries on general farming and stock raising. His progressive methods and capable management of his affairs have given him the well-merited reputation of being one of the skilled farmers of his region, and his high business principles have been ample proof of his integrity. He has taken some interest in politics, and is a Democratic voter, and he and his family are members of St. John's church, at Hamilton. Source - Rootsweb - Memoirs of the Miami Valley
