Jacob J. Sailer

Jacob J. Sailer owns three hundred and twelve acres of land on section 3, Grant township, one hundred and sixty acres on section 34, Reeve township, and two hundred and forty acres in Geneva township, and in the cultivation of this property follows always the most progressive and practical methods, surrounding himself with a gratifying degree of prosperity. He has lived in Franklin county since 1882 but is a native of Germany. His birth occurred May 9, 1856, and he is a son of J. J. and Louisa Amelia (Off) Sailer, also natives of the fatherland. The parents came to America in 1885 and settled immediately in Franklin county, where they resided until their deaths. The father passed away in Osceola township September 14, 1913, and the mother December 28, 1910. Among their children were: Jacob J., of this review; Caroline, the wife of Thomas Sesler, of Osceola township; Charles, a resident of Germany; Fred, of Osceola; Louisa, the widow of G. Hofmeister; John, of Osceola township; and Paulina, the wife of Christ Sailer, of Osceola.

Jacob J. Sailer came to America in 1882 and settled immediately in Franklin county, Iowa, where he has since resided. Two years later he bought eighty acres in Osceola township and cultivated this until 1894, when he purchased three hundred and twelve acres on section 3, Grant township and one hundred and sixty in Reeve township. In 1894 he also purchased one hundred and sixty acres in Geneva township and later purchased eighty acres more in that township. He cultivated this until 1907. His farms have become under his able management among the most valuable in this vicinity.

On the 24th of January, 1888, Mr. Sailer was united in marriage to Miss Anna Marguerita Welland, a native of Germany, and they have become the parents of six children: Louisa, the wife of Louis Kreimeyer, of Geneva township; John H., Maria M., and John Jacob, at home; Charles F., deceased; and Caroline T., at home. Mr. Sailer is a member of the Evangelical church and gives his political allegiance to the republican party. He is now serving as township trustee and in the discharge of his official duties has been found capable, conscientious and trustworthy. Well known throughout Franklin county by reason of his long residence and the extent of his agricultural interests, Mr. Sailer is accounted one of the leading farmers of this part of the state and has the unqualified esteem and confidence of the entire community.
