Augusta immigrated from Germany in 1868, two years after her husband.
The couple settled on farmland in Hartland, Shawano Co., Wisconsin, near the larger town of Bonduel.
They had four children born there; August Charles 1875-1940, Wilhelm Frederick 1876-1962, Emma Augusta 1879-1977 and Martha 1882-1947. A fifth child died in infancy.
Fred and Augusta were able to remain on their farm until they passed, as their son August remained on the farm, and at age 44, still hadn't married.
