Read More	Taken from a clipping in the Waukon, Iowa newspaper 1924: Mr. Klemme was born in Brosen, Hohenhausen, Lippe, Germany on Dec. 29, 1835. At the age of 20 years he left his native county and after landing in New York, he traveled directly to Sheboygan, Wis. where he secured employment at $4 per month as a farm laborer. After a year his ambition prompted him to accept an offer in the brick yards in the city of Chicago. About the year 1857 he came to this state (Iowa) and worked on a farm near Waukon. In July 1863, he was united in the bonds of holy matrimony with Miss Louise Krumme and they established their home on a farm three and a half miles east of Waukon. They lived on the farm until about nine years ago when they retired and moved to Waukon. Of the 12 children which God blessed their union, two daughters, one son and the mother have gone to their eternal home. Nine children, four daughters and five sons, still enjoy the father's presence in their midst. Mr. Klemme has proven himself an industrious citizen of this, his adopted country, and has been a kind neighbor and a friend in need. Although he has already seen 89 winters, Mr. Klemme is still hale and hearty and attends to the duties of the house, even to baking and other work incumbent upon the housewife. He enjoys nothing better than a visit with his children, relatives and friends whom he delights to tell of his early years in the state. On Christmas day, the sons and daughters as usual, braved the cold wintry air and gathered at his home to express the love and regard they have for him.
