The thrifty German element of Highland Precinct finds a most worthy representative in this young and enterprising farmer, who owns and operates 240 acres of fertile land on section 13. Of this 120 acres are in a high state of cultivation, and the farm is supplied with good buildings, fairly stocked with horses, cattle and swine, while our subject has the necessary machinery for carrying on agriculture after the most approved methods. Mr. Spellman became possessor of his property in 1878, at a time when a greater part of the land had been unbroken by the plowshare. The condition in which we find it to-day indicates the perseverance and industry with which he has labored, for he now has one of the best appointed farms in this section of the county. His birthplace was Scioto County, Ohio, and the date thereof Sept. 1, 1857. His father, Henry C. Spellman, who was of pure German ancestry. was born in the then little Kingdom of Hanover, and came to the United States when a young man unmarried. He took up his residence in Scioto County, Ohio, and there formed the acquaintance of Miss Elnora R. Reller, whose birth took place in the German Empire near the early home of her husband, and who came at an early age to the United States, settling in Scioto County, Ohio. After marriage the parents of our subject located upon a farm in the above county, of which the elder Spellman in due time became owner, at the same time also owning and operating an iron furnace and a store of general merchandise. He was successful in his labors and business transactions, and continued a resident of the Buckeye State until about 1863, then, resolving to push on further westward. he crossed the Mississippi into Clayton County, Iowa, and there also carried on general merchandising for a period of five years. Upon selling out again he came to Nebraska, and purchased land from the Burlington & Missouri River Railroad Company, which later he sold to his son, our subject, and removing to Cortland, Gage County, is there spending his declining years retired from active labor, and with his estimable wife, in the enjoyment of a competence. Both have passed their threescore years, during which they have built up for themselves a good record as hard-working, honest people, who have striven to do their duty wherever in life they have been placed. Both are members in good standing of the United Brethren Church. Our subject is one of the younger members of a large family, four sons and six daughters, seven of whom are living and are residents mostly of Nebraska. He was a little lad nine years of age when his parents came to this State, and completed his education in the schools of Centerville. He was early in life taught those habits of industry and principles of honor which form the basis of every worthy character, and, like his father before him, is one of the most highly esteemed citizens in his community. He worked with his father until approaching his majority, and when ready to establish domestic ties of his own was united in marriage, at the home of the bride in Centerville, March 31, 1881, to Miss Lydia Bohl. The wife of our subject was born near Muscatine, Iowa, Jan. 21, 1862, and came with her father, Nicholas Bohl, to Nebraska when a young child. Her parents are now living in this State. Her education was completed in the schools of Centerville Precinct, of which her father is a prominent resident and successful farmer. Of her union with our subject there have been born three children--George N., Nellie and Henry. Mrs. Spellman attends the German Methodist Church. and our subject, politically, is a solid Republican.
