PETER HAGGEFor over a third of a century this gentleman was a resident of Deep Creek township, and was numbered among its leading citizens. He was born in Schleswig, Germany, on the 14th of September, 1845, and was a son of Peter and Lena Hagge, who spent their entire lives in that country. Our subject grew to manhood in his native land, and in 1864 came to the United States. On first locating in Clinton county, Iowa, he worked as a laborer for five or six years, but was at length able to purchase a farm in Deep Creek township, and at the time of his death owned considerable property. On the 23d of April, 1868, Mr. Hagge was united in marriage with Mrs. Bridget (Kruse) Seick, a native of Germany, and a daughter of Paul and Bridget Kruse. In 1847 she sailed from Hamburg, Germany, to New York, and on arriving in the latter city proceeded at once to Clinton county, Iowa. She first married John Seick, who was also born in Germany, July 3, 1824, and died in Deep Creek township, this county, in 1859. By that union she had three children, but Peter died young. Celia is now the wife of Henry Rohweder, of Jackson county, Iowa, and they have six children; John, Vertus, Martha, Henry, Alfred and Viola. Anna is the wife of Henry Hagge, of Andover, Clinton county, and they had six children; Hans; Ervin; Herbert; Helmut; Arnold, deceased; and Algona. In politics Mr. Seick was a Republican. Unto Mr. and Mrs. Hagge were born seven daughters, as follows: Martha, a resident of Goose Lake; Helena, wife of August Vorbeck, of Waterloo, Iowa; Tiena, wife of Peter Kruse, of Center township, Clinton county; Emma, Amelia, Matilda and Gertrude, who are all at home with their mother. Being successful in business affairs, Mr. Hagge was able to leave his family in comfortable circumstances, and his widow now owns a well-improved farm of one hundred acres on section 27, Deep Creek township, upon which she makes her home, though she rents the land. Mr. Hagge was injured in a runaway October 5, 1883, his right leg being hurt, and he was confined to his bed for eleven weeks at that time. Later, in May, 1886, and again in September of that year, he went to Chicago to have operations performed upon the limb, as he had never recovered from the injury, and four inches of the bone above the knee were removed. In 1893 he again met with misfortune by falling in the village of Goose Lake and breaking the same limb. He died of Bright's disease August 25, 1899, and was laid to rest in the Center township cemetery. In his political views Mr. Hagge was a strong Democrat, and always took quite an interest in public affairs. He was a man of the highest respectability, and those who were most intimately associated with him speak in unqualified terms of his sterling integrity, his honor in business and his fidelity to all the duties of public and private life. His death occasioned the deepest regret through the community, and his township thereby lost one of its most valued citizens.
