As one of the native-born sons of Dodge County, Henry Uehling has lived to see many wonderful changes in the development of his home community, both in numbers and class of residents and in importance as an agricultural center. He was born November 12, 1862, in Dodge County and is a son of Theodore Uehling, a pioneer who drove through to this region with a team of oxen. During the period of his boyhood, Henry Uehling was better acquainted with the Indians than with white people. The redskins were peaceable and friendly and frequently stopped at the Uehling home, where hospitality was extended them by Mrs. Uehling, and this familiarity did not tend to increase the youth's awe of the original settlers. Every year tribes of Indians would go west and north in the fall, on hunting expeditions, and in the spring would return to their camps, so that there was almost a constant procession of the tribes coming and going. There were very few settlers, the Uehling home eight miles north of Clark's Creek being the first house reached from that point. With no fences, when the early settlers desire to go anywhere they merely took the shortest route. Omaha was the closest city of any size, and it required three days to make the journey to that place, but of necessity all the grain was hauled there, as the nearest mills where at De Soto and Fort Calhoun. After the railroad was built to Fremont, that place became the destination and distribution point of the early farmers. The education of Mr. Uehling was acquired in the public schools of Dodge County, and as a youth and young man was associated in farming with his father. When he reached the age of twenty-five years he embarked upon operations of his own, first on his father's eighty-acre farm and later on eighty acres of his own. From this modest beginning he has extended his activities to cover farming and stock raising on 600 acres of land, all located in Logan Township. He is engaged in general farming and devotes a good portion of his time to raising of thoroughbred live stock, including Jersey hogs and Percheron horses. His labors have been attended by satisfactory results and he is regarded as one of the most substantial and prosperous farmers of his county. While energetic and progressive, he is nevertheless careful and systematic in his methods of operation, and his farm is one of he most productive and profitable in this section. He and Mrs. Uehling are members of the Lutheran Church, and as fraternalist is affiliated with the Masons. While he devotes his attention unreservedly to his farm, he is not indifferent to the duties of citizenship, and a number of years ago served his township in the capacity of treasurer. Mr. Uehling was married in 1886 to Miss Marquerite Snyder, daughter of John and Barbara (Krueger) Snyder, settlers of 1874 in Burt County, Nebraska, who are now living in retirement at Scott's Bluff. There were seven children in the Snyder family; one who died in infancy, Peter, Adam, Marguerite, Andrew, Conrad and Marie deceased. Four children have been born to Mr. and Mrs. Uehling: Arthur, who is engaged in farming in Dodge County; and Ira, Marie and Ernest, at home.
