PHILIP ZWIEBEL, was a large land owner and prosperous farmer of Sarpy county, Nebraska, is also an old settler, as he located within the borders of Sarpy county in 1856, and since that year he has labored constantly, pursuing the vocation of a farmer.

Philip was a large land owner and prosperous farmer of Sarpy county, Nebraska, is also an old settler, as he located within the borders of Sarpy county in 1856, and since that year he has labored constantly, pursuing the vocation of a farmer. He was born in France, in 1836, and is a son of Michael Zwiebel, who moved with his family to Ohio, where he carried on farming until his death. When Philip was a lad of fifteen years, he started to learn the trade of a blacksmith, but as he did not like it, he went west, in 1856, and located in Sarpy County, where he bought a pre-emption of 160 acres for $150. He afterward bought about 160 acres in sections 19 and 30, LaPlatte precinct, and 371 acres from J. F. Payne. All of this property is in one farm, upon which Mr. Zwiebel has spent much time in putting it in a fine state of cultivation. Besides general farming, he raises a record for corn raising which is a hard one to beat, having raised 100 bushels to the acre, and his oats also yield more per acre than the average farmer raises. This goes to show what a thorough state of cul-tivation the land is in, and accounts for the reputation which Mr. Zwiebel bears throughout his community as an up-to-date, progressive and contentious farmer. Mr. Zwiebel wedded Annie Barbara Elsass, of Ohio, and they have seven children, namely; George; Frank; Christina; Sophia; wife of J. Seefus; Caroline, the wife of W. Jackson; Benjamin, deceased; and Tilda. Politically the subject of this sketch is a Democrat. He has served on the school board, and he and his family are members of the Lutheran Church.
