Otto W. Schiele (1853-1927)
Carl Schiele, native of Germany, came to America in 1854 and settled in Montpelier Township, Muscatine County, Iowa. He wed Wilhelmina Wattenburg, also a native of Germany and two years later (1856) the family came to the new world.
He settled upon a tract of eighty acres of timber land which he converted into a fine farm, at once undertaking the difficult task of clearing away the trees and preparing the soil for cultivation. That he succeeded is evidence by the fact that at the time of his death he was the owner of 280 acres of valuable farm land in this state. He continued to reside upon the farm in Muscatine County, until called to his final rest.
His widow afterward made her home with her son, O. W. Schiele and for over twenty-four years she lived with him. The family of Carl and Wilhelmina Schiele numbered four sons and a daughter who reached mature years.
