JOHANNES BROCKMANN....Johannes Brockmann, a prosperous farmer and stockman of Muscatine county, is the owner of seven hundred and forty acres of valuable land in the state of Iowa and also has property in other parts of the country. His birth occurred in Holstein, Germany, on the 7th of August, 1856, his parents being Claus H. and Anna ( Sindt ) Brockmann, who were likewise natives ot that country. They crossed the Atlantic to the United States in 1881, settling on a farm of two hundred and eighty acres in Scott county, Iowa, which the father operated until called to his final rest on the 20th of July, 1898. The mother still lives on the old homestead in Scott county. Their children were seven in number, as follows : Wilhelmina, who is a resident of Grinnell, Iowa ; Johannes, of this review ; Henry, living in Scott county ; Adolph, who makes his home in Colorado ; Emil, living on the old homestead place ; William, who passed away at the age of twenty-one years ; and one who died in infancy.
Johannes Brockmann spent the first twenty-six years of his life under the parental roof and then began the operation of a part of his father-in-law's farm, which he has cultivated to the present time. He and his wife are now in the possession of the entire homestead place of two hundred acres and have added to their holdings by purchase until the present day they hold seven hundred and forty acres of rich and productive land in the state of Iowa. In connection with the tilling of the soil Mr. Brockmann has made a specialty of handling good grades of stock and feeds hogs for the market on an extensive scale. His property holdings include three hundred and twenty acres of land in Minnesota and likewise a tract of one hundred and sixty acres in Osceola county, Iowa, all of which is under a high state of cultivation and improvement.
On the 26th of January, 1881, Mr. Brockmann was united in marriage to Miss Louisa Stoltenberg, who was born in Scott county, Iowa, on the 26th of January, 1857, her parents being Henry and Katrina ( Lamp ) Stoltenberg, natives of Germany. The father crossed the Atlantic to America in 1846, while the mother came to the new world a few years later. They were married in Scott county, Iowa, where Henry Stoltenberg purchased land and became identified with agricultural pursuits, operating the same farm until the time of his retirement. He spent the last fifteen years of his life in Davenport, there passing away on the 28th of April, 1893. His remains were interred in the Oak cemetery of Davenport, as were also those of his wife, who was called to her final rest December 4, 1899. They were the parents of five children, namely : Mrs. Amelia Stahl, who is a resident of Davenport, Iowa ; Mrs. Brockmann ; Adolph H., living in Davenport ; and Agnes and Henry, who died in infancy. Mr. and Mrs. Brockmann have four children, as follows: Harry A., whose birth occurred April 23, 1884, and who pursued a course in africulture at the Ames ( Iowa ) State College ; Malinda, whose natal day was July 23, 1887, and who attended the Catholic academy at Davenport for two years ; Louis, born June 20, 1890, who is a graduate of the Davenport business College ; and Hulda E., born November 1, 1893, who is a student in the high school at Davenport.
In politics Mr. Brockmann is a republican but his aspirations have not been in the line of office holding. Fraternally he is identified with the Knights of Pythias, belonging to Lodge No. 312 at Walcott. He and his family belong to the Lutheran church and take an active and helpful interest in its work. Coming to the new world when a young man of twenty-five years, he has since worked his way steadily upward to a position among the most substantial and respected citizens of
his community.
