He is a son of Corbin Wygle. The father was a native of Union county, Ohio, and grew to manhood there. He moved to Iowa in 1854, purchasing a tract of land in Dayton Township, Butler County. This he cleared, fenced and improved and for many years thereafter carried forward the work of its development and cultivation, becoming one of the well known and substantial farmers of this locality. He died in February, 1898. Lemuel Wygie was reared upon his father's farm, acquiring his education in the district schools. He made his first purchase of land in Jackson Township, where he purchased eighty acres, which he was obliged to break before beginning the work of cultivation. At the end of five years he sold this property and bought one hundred and eighty-nine acres on Shell Rock River, in Dayton Township. He located upon this place and farmed it for twelve years, after which he sold his holdings and bought the farm which he now owns. He has two hundred acres on section 34, Dayton Township, and this he has improved with a neat residence, a large barn, a granary, cribs and other convenient outbuildings. He has fenced and cross fenced his fields and has a fine natural grove of native timber, making an effective wind-break around the house and buildings. He raises a good grade of Durham cattle, Duroc Jersey hogs and heavy work horses, and is also interested in dairying, all departments of his activities being important and profitable. In Jackson Township, this county, on the 18th of December, 1888, Mr. Wygle married Miss Nellie Leete, a daughter of A. N. Leete and a sister of H. A. Leete, of Greene, of whom further mention appears elsewhere in this work. Mrs. Lemuel Wygle was born in Wisconsin, but was reared in Butler County. She and her husband became the parents of six children: 1 Abbie 2 Clarence 3 Arthur 4 Fannie 5 Bernard 6 one child who died in infancy The parents are members of the Methodist Episcopal church of Packard. Mr. Wygle gives his political allegiance to the Republican Party and served for a time as road supervisor and for two terms as township trustee. A resident of Butler county during practically his entire life, he has witnessed a great deal of its growth and development and has done his full share in promoting its advancement. He is numbered today among the influential men of the county and his worth as a man and a citizen is widely acknowledged. Source: History of Butler County
