Read More	Son of Fred & Mollie (Noltenmeier), Orig. From the 1911 book Past and Present of Hardin County Iowa, pp. 613-615: Wilhelm Kuhlmann The gentleman whose name heads this paragraph is widely known in Hardin county and is one of the honored citizens of the town of Hubbard , where he is living in honorable retirement after a strenuous life of activity in connection with agricultural pursuits. His well directed efforts in the practical affairs of life, his capable management of his business interests and his sound judgment have brought to him prosperity, and his life demonstrates what may be accomplished by any man of energy and ambition who is not afraid to work and has the perseverance to continue his labors in the face of any disaster or discouragement that may arise. In all the relations of life Mr. Kuhlman has commanded the confidence and respect of those with whom he has been brought into contact and a biographical history of this locality would not be complete without a record of his career. Wilhelm Kuhlmann, like many of the leading citizens of Hardin county, was born in Germany , having first opened his eyes to the light of day in Snaubeck, on February 5, 1843 . He is the son of Fred and Mollie (Noltonsmeier) Kuhlmann, natives of Lour , Germany , where they always lived on a farm. They were members of the Evangelical church and there were eight children in their family, namely: Fred, who lives on the old home place in Germany; Wilhelm, of this review; Mollie and August both live in Germany; Carl is farming in the vicinity of Hubbard, Iowa; Henry is farming in Grant township, this county; Amelia is deceased; Augusta lives in Germany. Wilhelm Kuhlmann was educated both in German and in English. He remained at home until 1868, when he came to America, first locating in Cook county, Illinois, thirty-two miles from Chicago, at Barringston, living on a farm there until 1868, when he came to Hardin county, Iowa, having had an uncle in Tipton township. In the spring of 1870 he bought eighty-seven acres of land in Tipton township. It had been partly improved, including a small house. He set to work with a will and in due course of time had improved the place, established a comfortable home, and as he prospered added to his original purchase until he is now the owner of three hundred acres of as valuable and productive land as the county can boast. He carried on general farming and stock raising in a most successful manner, lived well and laid by an ample competency for his family and his old age, bringing his place up to a high state of cultivation and improvement, and there he remained until the spring of 1900, when he retired from active work and moved to Hubbard, where he has a beautiful, modern and elegantly furnished home. He is deserving of a great deal of credit for what he has accomplished, having started out with nothing, not so very many years ago and having accepted assistance from no one but his faithful wife, who was known in her maidenhood as Christina Weichmann, and whom he married in Cook county, Illinois, on October 28, 1869. She was born in Lippe-Detmold , Germany , the daughter of Henry and Maria (Wenicka) Weichmann, both natives of that place. This family emigrated to America in 1870 and settled in Boscobell , Wisconsin , where they procured land, but later they came to Tipton township, Hardin county, Iowa , and the father's death occurred in 1894, his widow surviving until 1900. They were members of the Evangelical church, and eight children were born to them, namely: Henry is farming in Grant township, this county; Christina, wife of Mr. Kuhlmann, of this review; Louisa is the wife of Christ Draw, of Hubbard, Iowa; Mary married Fred Bickman and both are now deceased; Lottie is the wife of Herman Bornemeier, of Grant township, this county; Minnie is deceased; Fred lives at Lake Park, Iowa; Annie is the wife of Henry Kuhlmann and they live in Hardin county. Five children have been born to Mr. and Mrs. Wilhelm Kuhlmann, namely: Mollie is the wife of Ernest Schlue, of Benton county, Iowa; Christina is the wife of August Hoelscher, of Hubbard, Iowa; Augusta is the wife of William Hoelscher, of Hubbard, Iowa; Fred, who married Minnie Kuhfus, is farming in Tipton township, this county; Minnie is living at home. Mr. Kuhlmann is a Republican and he has held a number of township offices, always to his credit and to the eminent satisfaction of all concerned. He is a worthy member of the Evangelical Association of Hubbard and he assisted in building the first church here, and he has always been a liberal contributor to the same. This is one of the prominent families of Hardin county and merits the high respect in which it is held. -------------------------
