Children
Note: There is a little
difficulty lining up the order of the children because the 1900 US Census for
McMillan, Marathon County, Wisconsin
is smudged on the part where the family is listed. I used the dates of the births of the
children of the children to try to put them in correct order.
Mary Louise
Mannigel (1876 - ?)

25, 1876 (“1 o’clock A.
M.” (certification of birth record: May
14, 1938)
On May 14, 1938,
Mary Louise Mannigel received a certification of birth record. Birth certificates were uncommon before 1900,
so in order to register for social security later in life,
one had to prove one’s birth: Mary
Louise Mannigel, White, Female. Father
was William Frederick Mannigel, deceased at the time of the certificate, a farmer
all his life, borne in Siecher, Brandenburg,
Germany; Mother was
Bertha Louisa Potter, born in Brandenburg

25, 1876 in the Town [township] of Clyman, Dodge

Proprietor of Bakerville
General Store
Emil W. Hintz was born February
5, 1883, at
Mannville, Marathon
County, Wisconsin, son of William Hintz and Minnie Katz. He
attended the public school at Mannville and the Immanuel Lutheran School in this city, studying in the latter school
during the last two years of his educational training. After completing his
education, he remained on the home farm until he reached the age of 19, when he
went to Milwaukee, where he worked a year in a brass foundry.
Next he was employed two years at the Tiffault‑Kamps Store. Then he
worked two years at the Soo Line Freight Depot and a similar length of time for
the Sparr Cereal Company, as a delivery man at the latter place. Leaving the

which he purchased a year later, and he has been the owner of it since, 14
years.
Mr. Hintz was married to
Miss Irene Mannigel by the Reverend Paetz in Saint Peter's Lutheran Church in
1919 [This must be a typo since Emil and Irene were married by the 1910
census.] . Their children are Reuben and Anita.
In public affairs he has
been prominent in his community as a justice of the peace, an office he has
held the past eight years, and as clerk of School District No. 3, town of Lincoln, and notary public, each of which positions
he has held the past six years. In other circles he is identified with the
First National and Cloverland State Banks of this city as a stockholder, with
the Lynn Mutual Fire and Storm Insurance Company, as agent, and the Immanuel
Lutheran Aid Society as a member. Politically, he is Independent. His hobbies
