My grandmother was Clara Ausgusta Zabel. Her parents were William and Caroline
(Hollander) Zabel. They lived in Crystal Lake Township/ Newton Township, Marquette
County, Wisconsin.
William was born 1848 and died 1921. Caroline was born 1850 and died 1929. They also had
a son named Carl who died 12 Mar 1887, age 1 year.
I think they are buried in St. Paul Lutheran Church (the Stone Church) Crystal Lake
Township.
According to my information, William's father was a tailor for the military before
emigrating to US. Originally their name was Zabelgaard.
Their living children were named: Albert, Emma, Ida, William, Fred, Henry, Paul,
Reinhold, and Clara (my grandmother).
The farmland of both William and Paul is now owned by the DNR, the buildings gone and the
fields now forest. The farms were on Dover Rd. not far from Hwy. 22.
I have more about each of the children also.
