He served in the German wars of 1848, 1864, and 1866. His mother also passed away when 76 years of age. Mr. Poeppe spent the first 18 years of his life in his fatherland and came to America in August 1881, settling in Carroll County. He had acquired an education in Germany and after coming here followed the profession of teaching for 19 years. He was then engaged in business as a general merchant of Mount Carmel for eight years and also served as postmaster of the town for a period of six years. Upon abandoning mercantile pursuits, he began farming in Kniest township and devoted his attention to the work of the fields until 1907, when he became deputy county auditor, servicing in that capacity for four years. On the expiration of that period in 1911 he was elected county auditor and served for three terms. Miss Lena R. Werniment became his bride on Feb. 11, 1890. She was a native of Dubuque and a daughter of John and Catharine Wernimont. Mr. and Mrs. Poeppe were the parents of nine children. Cecelia and Loretta have passed away.
