Paul LORENZEN, farmer; P. O. Frankfort Station; one of our early settlers; was born in 
Germany, Jan. 13, 1816; came to the United States in 1836, and to this State in 1852; from 
his boyhood until his settlement on his farm in Frankfort, Will Co., his pursuits have been 
those of a sailor, during which time he spent ten years on the salt water, and the balance 
on our lakes; his farm consists of 176 acres, valued at $50 per acre. He was married to Miss 
Gustena HERRE, who was born in Germany. Since his residence in the township he has held the 
office of Constable one year.
