HENRY A. DANNENMILLER
Copied from: "History of Skagit County" published by The Interstate Publishing
Company dated and copyright 1906. Copied from pages 580 and 581.
Henry A Dannenmiller, a prosperous hop grower residing three and one-half miles northwest of Mount Vernon, was born in Summit County, Ohio, July 31, 1859, the son of Henry and Mary (Gross) Dannenmiller.
The father, a farmer, was born in Germany, and died in Seneca County, Ohio. Also a native of Germany, the mother grew to womanhood in Canton, Ohio, which state is still her home. She is the mother of nine children, six of whom are now living, and are as follows: Joseph and William, living near Mount Vernon, Andrew, near Seattle; Elizabeth and Frank, in Ohio, and Henry A., whose name initiates this biography.
Having spent the early years of his life on the farm and in the schools of his native state, Mr. Dannenmiller learned the carpenter and cabinet making trade, beginning at the early age of fifteen to assist his father in the support of the family.
In April 1883, he decided to seek his fortune in the great Northwest of which he has read so much, locating in Seattle where he followed his trade until 1887, at which time he removed to Mount Vernon. Here he purchased his present place, together with the adjoining one, the latter purchase being made for a brother.
The country was very wild at that time, bears being frequently seen on his farm, and occasioning much annoyance by carrying off pigs and chickens. Those were years full of hardships and dangers that would have brought dismay to one less courageous than Mr. Dannenmiller. The flood of 1894, so well-remembered by those who were at that time living near the Skagit river, carried off much of his property, destroyed part of his orchard, and rendered it necessary to move his house to another part of the place in order to save it, the former site being now some seventy—five feet out in the river.
He and his brother Andrew worked the two places together for two years, at the end of which time they made a division, each farming separately since that time.
The culture of hops claimed his attention very soon after coming to this locality, and having built a hop house for his neighbor, Mr. Wilds, he used that for drying his product until he was in position to build one for himself. Increasing his hop area from year to year he has now seventeen acres devoted to that business, and will add five acres this fall. With an annual yield of about one ton to the acre, he has been successfull, though he was at one time forced to sell his product at three and one-half cents a pound when the actual cost of production was eight cents a pound. Selling his sheep and cows that year to make good the loss he resolutely continued growing hops, reaping the reward in later years when the price advanced to twenty-six cents a pound.
Mr. Dannenmiller was married June 2, 1891, to Clara Riplinger, born near St. Paul, Minnesota, March 22, 1871, the daughter of Nicholas and Kate (Einswiler) Rilpinger. The father was born in France, July 12, 1832, and died at La Conner, June 7, 1895. The mother, a native of Germany, died in 1877.
Seven children have been born to Mr. and Mrs. Dannenmiller as follows: Alphoncius [William Alfonsius?], [born in August, 1892] who was accidentally killed in August, 1892 [in 1902?], by a falling stump that had burned off at the root; Paul, attending school at home; Hilda E., Leo, Howard, Herbert and Francis, all still at home.
Mr. Dannenmiller is a prominent member of the Catholic church at Mount Vernon. An enthusiastic member of the Democratic party, he was a candidate for county commissioner in 1896, but owing to the Republican landslide that occurred that year, the entire ticket was defeated. Realizing the vast importance of maintaining good schools, he has advocated every measure that promised better advantages, serving for some time on the school board. Mr. Dannenmiller has recently built a fine new house, equipped with all the modern conveniences, a convincing proof both of his prosperity and excellent taste. Thrifty, industrious, and a man of sterling character, he enjoys the confidence and esteem of his wide circle of acquaintances.
