      December 13, 1851 - June 7, 1925

      Author: Acme Publishing Company, 1889

      HENRY F. SACKETT, who resides on section 29 in the town of Osceola, has
      resided upon that farm almost his entire life. He was born in the Buckeye
      State, and is a son of Alzara and Sarah A. Sackett. His father was also
      born in Ohio, but his mother was a native of Virginia. She removed with
      her parents to Ohio, however, when a child and was there reared to
      womanhood. Her maiden name was Sarah Harbaugh, and in 1843 she became the
      wife of Mr. Sackett, a farmer residing in the neighborhood in which she
      made her home. They became the parents of six children: Freeman, the
      eldest, who was born Nov. 5, 1847, in Champion, Trumbull Co., Ohio, and
      served in the Army of the Potomac as a member of the 28th Wisconsin
      Infantry under Col. Pier, is a printer by trade and is now living in
      Phillips, Wis.; Austin S., also a a native of Trumbull County, born June
      20, 1849, now makes his home in California; Henry, of this sketch, is the
      third in order of birth, he having been born in Champion, Dec. 13, 1851;
      Simmons E., who was born in Waucousta, Wis., Dec. 8, 1853, when last heard
      of was in California; Edith Adela, who was born in Waucousta, Sept. 23,
      1856, died in infancy; George E., who was born in the same town, June 12,
      1861, is a printer of Fifield, Wis.

      In 1852 when our subject was a babe, Mr, Sackett left his home in Ohio and
      emigrated with his family to Wisconsin, where he purchased a farm of 160
      acres in the town of Osceola, Fond du lac County. It became the homestead
      and there our subject yet resides with his mother. The land at that time
      was covered with a heavy growth of timber, only five acres of the entire
      amount having been cleared. In the opening, a little log cabin had been
      built which constituted the home of the family during these early days.
      With a resolute will and unbounded energy, Mr. Sackett began the
      development of a farm. Little by little the land was cleared of the forest
      trees and crops were planted. The work of cultivation and improvement was
      carried forward with such ceaseless industry that it was not many years
      before the Sackett farm was numbered among the best in the county, which
      rank it still occupies. In the month of October, 1869, the husband and
      father was called to his final rest, but his excellent wife still survives
      him, and makes her home with our subject.

      Henry Sackett was reared on the old homestead farm and in the district
      schools of the neighborhood acquired his education. With his family he was
      forced to endure many hardships and trials such as are incident to pioneer
      life, and at the early age of seventeen years, on the death of his father,
      he became manager of affairs. Though so young, he displayed much ability
      in the discharge of his arduous duties and is now numbered among the
      leading farmers of the community. Perhaps the care of the farm and family
      served but to develop his self-reliance and resolute character. The
      thoughtfulness and care which he evinced would have done honor to one much
      older, but he has been rewarded by great success in his undertakings, and
      is now numbered among the prosperous citizens of Osceola Township. In
      connection with general farming he owns and operates two cheese factories,
      one located on the old homestead, the other in the town of Ashford. These
      also yield a good income and are leading enterprises of the township.

      On the 13th day of June, 1880, Mr. Sackett was joined in wedlock with Miss
      Cora I. Marston, of Campbellsport. They now have two interesting children,
      both sons, namely: Ray Marston, who was born Nov. 9, 1883; and Herbert
      Simmons, who was born Dec. 30, 1885. Their first-born, a daughter, Eva
      Clair, died in infancy.

      Mr. Sackett is a stalwart advocate of the Republican party, which he has
      supported since attaining his majority, but though he feels a deep interest
      in political affairs he has never sought public office, preferring to
      devote his time and attention to his business interests. He does not hold
      membership with any religious organization, but contributes liberally to
      charitable and benevolent institutions, and is a worthy and valued citizen.
      As a business man he displays much ability, is careful and accurate in his
      methods and courteous and affable in manner.
