Theodor Raubach, another of the energetic and prosperous farmers of Pierce township in the county of that name, has acquired a fine farm by dint of good management and perseverance, owing five hundred and twenty acres in various tracts. He is all old settler of that region, and has gained hundreds of friends in his home community. Mr. Raubach is a native of the province of Rhine, Prussia, born on November 26, 1840, in the village of Stoszdorf. He served in the German army his allotted time, and was called into active service as a soldier during that country's short war with Denmark in 1864, and Austria in 1866. On August 4, 1866, he took passage on the "Theresa," a Russian sailing vessel, and after a voyage of seventeen days, landed in New York, Coming directly west and locating in Wisconsin. He obtained employment at Hurricane, working in the hotel and livery barn through one winter and later was with John Austin, a mill builder in the lumber woods. Mr. Raubach came to Nebraska in March, 1868, stopping in Stanton county, and remaining for a few days. He finally selected the northeast quarter of section one, township twenty-five, range two, as a homestead, and going to Dakota City where he filed his application, returned to Wisconsin, paying his last dollar to cross the river at Council Bluffs, and being obliged to work his way to his destination. He came back to Nebraska and started to build up his farm, using drift logs for his shanty, and extended his hospitality to all who were settling in the locality and needed shelter until their shanties were built. He was kind to the Indians who traveled the plains, feeding them whenever they asked for food, and they soon made this their stopping place. Mr. Raubach has passed through every form of pioneer existence, going through grasshopper raids, etc. His first crop of wheat he hauled to Omaha, receiving one dollar and seventy-five cents per bushel for it. He was at that time given credit for one hundred and fifty dollars worth of provisions, which he paid for out of his next crop. He prospered wonderfully, and, now has over three hundred acres under cultivation, his farm is supplied with good buildings of all kinds and he is classed among the wealthy men of his vicinity. Mr. Raubach was married in 1876, to Barbara Sukup, and to them have been born eight children: Joseph and John, who are the father's helpers on the farm; Henry, now teaching in the Sioux City schools; Frederick, of Valentine; Elizabeth, Frank, Martha and Cora, all in school in Pierce. The family are popular in their community, and all are members of the Catholic church. Mr. Raubach is a democrat. "The Compendium of Nebraska History"
