Born in Teunz, near Oberviechtach in Schwandorf, Bayern, Deutschland, he came to America as a young man, traveling with his godparents, Adam and Anna Pregler. They brought him West to their homestead, and he became a farmer near Herndon in Rawlins County, Kansas. When he couldn't marry his first sweetheart Gertrude Schutz, he found another and married Anna Kleidosty on October 8, 1889.
A true pioneer, he lived in a "soddie" until after World War I, when he built a wooden house for his first wife Anna Kleidosty. She died soon afterwards and he remarried to his former sweetheart Gertrude Schuetz Schmitt in 1923, who was by then a widow. Gertrude died in 1945 and Adam followed her to heaven in 1953. They were survived by a large blended family.
Adam was friends with Lorenz Goltl, memorial #47375643.
