Son of Joseph and Emelia Doll, he was born in Eastman township Jan. 17 1872.
He was married to Magdalene Schoeffer of Prairie du Chien, Jan. 17, 1898 and to this union five children were born. They lived on a farm near Wauzeka until 1912 when they moved to the village and the box factory was erected.
