Valentine Hauck, (b. 1837), merchant, Rolfe, was a native of Coburg, Germany. In 1852, he came to America and located in Jo Daviess county, Ill. In 1856, he married Maria Kehl (b. 1847), a native of that county, and two years later became proprietor of a grocery store at Marshalltown, Iowa. Later he located at Glenwood, Mo, and in 1882, associated with Martin Weible, a brother in-law, opened a general store in the new town of Rolfe. The firm, Weible & Hauck, did business in Rolfe, though August Weible, in 1894, became the successor of his father as a member of the firm. This was one of the oldest business firms in the county, and it grew stronger financially and in favor with the people as the years passed. He was the owner of the store building, considerable other town property and 480 acres of farm lands most of it in the vicinity of Rolfe. He served several years as a member of the Rolfe school board, and was a democrat. His family consisted of two children one of whom died in childhood.

George Otto Hauck, his son and associate in business, in 1894, married Hattie May, daughter of Ross and Juliette G. Potter Dennis, and his family consisted of four children: Ida May, Esther, Margaretta, and Valentine.
