General Notes: Husband - Jacob Keen


He obtained a practical education, partly in the local schools of his day, and partly through observation. Although he was not the oldest son, his capacity for leadership was made evident at an early age, as he always "went ahead."
He and his bride began housekeeping at the old homestead, and lived there until 1882, when he removed to Millheim, retiring from business cares. He was a lifelong Democrat, but no politician; although at one time he served as constable of the village of Millheim. In religious belief his sympathies were with the United Evangelical Church, to which his entire family belonged. At his death he left a large estate, including the old homestead farm of more than 100 acres and some mountain land, as well as the comfortable home in Millheim, where his widow continued to reside.
