He was born near the town of Nellingsheim, in the kingdom of Wurtemburg, Germany, January 25, 1831. He was reared under the compulsory education laws of his native land and when of age he learned the trade of a stonemason. The ways of the old world were too slow for the ambition of the young man and he soon bid adieu to his friends, and embarking in the sailing vessel "John of Prackle" for America, he landed in New York City in the month of June." From the great metropolis young Binder proceeded to Richland county, Ohio, where he sojourned two years; then pushing further westward he took up his abode in Mahaska county, Iowa, where he followed his trade some years, and then occupied two years in traveling. He finally decided to locate in Scott county, Iowa, and was there married to Miss Catherine, daughter of Michael and Mary (Shiner) Bald." In the spring of 1870 Mr. Binder moved his family to this county and purchased the farm where he has made his home since that time. Mr. Binder was the father of eleven children; his wife, five sons and three daughters survive him. He was reared in the Lutheran faith of the Fatherland. Funeral services were held on Tuesday, July 3d, at 2 o'clock p. m., at the Mount Hope church. The sermon was preached by Rev. I. B. Heisey, pastor of the Lutheran Church. After the services at the church the remains were taken to Riverside Cemetery, Waterville, and laid to rest in the family lot. The sterling qualities of Mr. Binder's character gained for him many friends, and they were present at the funeral services to pay their respects to his memory. So, then, another life is spent —I. B. H.
