He grew to manhood in his native land and June 26, 1874 was joined in wedlock to Miss Catheria Bebecia Wittee. The following year Mr. and Mrs. Brockman immigrated to the United States, shortly after her two brothers, Henry and John Witte came to America, and similar to the latter two settled in Freeport, Illinois. Mrs. Brockman was born February 17, 1852 at Holder, Germany, and continued her residence there until her marriage. The couple was married at Holder. Her parents and younger brother also came to this country when she and her husband settled in the U. S. While in his native land Mr. Brockman took up the shoemaker's trade, and he continued this occupation in Freeport. Four children were born to this union while they were residing in Illinois, namely Mrs. J. J. Whittaker, Henry Brockman, Cathina Brockman, and William Charles Brockman. In the year of 1882, the family moved westward into Dakota Territory, arriving here February 13. Shortly after being here the youngest child passed away. Five children were born to Mr. and Mrs. Brockman during their residence here, including: William C. Brockman; Tena Brockman (Mrs. Matt H. Meyers) of Fulda, Minn.; Bertha Elnora Brockman, who died when she was only nine years old, and twin boys who succumbed in infancy. Mr. Brockman continued his shoemaker's trade while in Lennox. Mrs. Brockman passed away February 21, 1917 at the home of her daughter, Mrs. Jesse J. Whittaker, after an illness of eight months. Mr. Brockman died at his home in Lennox April 14, 1917, seven weeks following the death of his wife. Mr. Brockman's death resulted from injuries sustained when a cement wall, which he and another resident were trying to level, fell without warning and crushing him. He was survived by two daughters and three sons, Mrs. Jesse Whittaker, Lennox; Mrs. Matt Meyers, Fulda, Minn.; and Henry, William and Carl Brockman, Lennox.
