Biographical Record of Whiteside County 1900, page 231.
HENRY WETZELL, who lives on section 35, Hume township, Whiteside County, Illinois, owns and operates a fine farm of one hundred and sixty acres, whose neat and thrifty appearance well indicates his careful supervision. Substantial improvements are surrounded by well tilled fields, and many of the accessories and conveniences of a model farm are there found.
Mr. Wetzell was born in Tuscarawas county, Ohio, November 11, 1843, a son of Jacob and Susanna (Beidler) WETZELL, also natives of the Buckeye state. The paternal grandparents, John and Margaret (Reese) WETZELL, were born, reared and married in Pennsylvania, and the latter lived to the advanced age of over ninety-six years. The father of our subject followed farming in Tuscarawas county, Ohio, until 1855, when he came to Whiteside County, Illinois, and bought one hundred and sixty acres in Genesee township, which he converted into a good farm. Subsequently he purchased more land and now resides on the second farm at the age of eighty-five yearsÂ-an honored and highly-respected old man.
The subject of this sketch was a lad of twelve years when he came with the family to this county, and he assisted in opening up and improving the home farm. When his services were not needed at home, he attended the common schools of the neighborhood, and the knowledge thereby acquired has been greatly supplemented by subsequent reading and observation. On the 11th of May, 1864, he enlisted in Company A, One Hundred and Fortieth Illinois Volunteer Infantry, for one hundred daysÂ’ service, and was with the Army of the Tennessee. He participated in some skirmishes, but was mainly engaged in guarding railroads in Tennessee and Mississippi. For six weeks he lay ill in the field hospital, and was then honorably discharged in November, 1864.
Returning to his home, Mr. Wetzell was married in Genesee township, January 19, 1865, to Miss Catherine Overholser, a native of Holmes county, Ohio, and a daughter of Martin Overholser, who came to this county in 1853. Mr. and Mrs. Wetzell have a family of ten living children, namely:
James Frank, who is married and engaged in farming in Hume township;
Cerena, at home;
John L. and William, who own a farm and also rent land, so that they now operate two hundred and forty acres;
Christopher, a successful teacher, who died at the age of twenty-four years;
Jennie, wife of Frank Milligan, of Tampico township;
Rebecca, Lloyd, Oscar P., Lillian and Henry L., all at home; and
Lola V., who died at the age of seventeen months.
After his marriage Mr. Wetzell continued his residence in Genesee township until 1872, when be removed to his present farm on section 35, Hume township, though at that time he only owned eighty acres. He built a good residence, which he has since enlarged, and also erected a barn and other outbuildings, and later purchased an adjoining eighty-acre tract, so that he now has one hundred and sixty acres of well-improved land.
At national elections Mr. Wetzell has affiliated with the Republican party since casting his first presidential vote for Abraham Lincoln in 1864, but in local politics he is independent, always supporting the men whom he believes best qualified to fill the offices regardless of party lines. He has been honored with a number of offices, having served as highway commissioner two or three years, assessor two years, and supervisor for nine consecutive years. While a member of the county board he served on a number of important committees, including those on equalization, claims and the poor farm. He has also been an efficient member of the school board twenty-one years and is now president of the district. Socially he belongs to the Grand Army post of Sterling and the Knights of the Globe, and religiously his wife is a member of the United Brethren church, and most of his children belong to the Methodist Episcopal church. He is widely and favorably known, and is one of the most popular and influential men of his community.
