1916, v 2, p 64

George W. SCHNUCKEL, one of the younger representatives of agricultural 
interests in Pleasant Prairie Township, Kenosha County, Wisconsin, was born 
08 April 1881 in Kenosha, a son of Charles and Julia (SWANTZ) SCHNUCKEL. He 
attended the public schools until fourteen years of age, and early became 
familiar with every detail of farm work, giving his father the benefit of his 
services until 1905, when he rented some of the home place and started out in 
business for himself. He has since met with marked success in the operation 
of his land, and is regarded as one of the leading farmers of his community.

On 18 April 1912 George W. SCHNUCKEL married [Miss] Maude COLBY, daughter of 
Nahum COLBY of Beecher [Will County], Illinois. To George W. and Maude 
(COLBY) SCHNUCKEL have been born two children: (1) Carl Nahum; and (2) 
William George, now deceased [text published 1916]. Mr. SCHNUCKEL is 
independent in politics, and has been a member of the school board one term. 
Religiously he is a member of the German Lutheran church, and his course has 
ever been such as to commend him to the confidence of those with whom he has 
been brought in contact.
