Descendants of Nathaniel Piper

622. ALBERT⁹ PIPER (HIRAM HARDING⁸, EZEKIEL⁷, DAVID⁶, ELISHA⁵, SAMUEL⁴, SAMUEL³, NATHANIEL², JOSIAS¹) was born April 01, 1875 in Malden, Illinois, and died January 19, 1960 in at the home of his son, Clifford E. Piper, Crookston, Minnesota. He married ELLA M. TURNER October 01, 1896. She was born September 18, 1874 in Bureau County, and died April 25, 1958 in Crookston, Minnesota.

Notes for ALBERT PIPER:
      The broad Acres which constitute the farm of Albert Piper are well cultivated, and golden harvests are annually gathered as the reward of his labors. He is one of the most progressive agriculturists of his community, and that he keeps in touch with modern progress is indicated by the fact that among his possessions is included a fine automobile, whereby he is enabled to cover the distance of twelve miles between his home and the county seat in thirty-five minutes. Born in Bureau county on the 1st of April, 1875, he is a son of Hiram H. and Amanda (McWilliams) Piper, who were married December 18, 1859. The father was born in Harveysburg, Ohio, December 11, 1828, and the mother's birth occurred January 16, 1841. Hiram H. Piper arrived in Bureau county in 1836, and has since lived within its borders, taking a prominent part in shaping its agricultural development. He is now one of the Venerable citizens of the county, and wheel deserves mention in this volume as a pioneer who has aided In subjugating the wilderness and extending the frontier.
      Albert Piper at the usual age became a public school student, and through the winter seasons mastered the branches of learning usually taught in the public schools, while in the summer months he was trained to farm labor, with which he became thoroughly familiar, gaining accurate knowledge of the best methods and time of planting his crops and of caring for the fields during the season of development and of harvest. As a companion and helpmate for life's journey he chose Miss Ella M. Turner, who he wedded on the 1st of October, 1896. She was born September 18, 1874, in this county, and her parents, Clarence L. and Mary A. (Palmer) Turner, were also natives of this county and are now living retired in Princeton at the age of sixty years. Like her husband, Mrs. Piper was educated in the public schools here. They attended the Methodist Episcopal church at Malden and contribute to its support, while Mr. Piper follows in the political footsteps of his father and gives unfaltering allegiance to the republican party. He belongs to the Knights of Pythias fraternity, his membership being in Dautless lodge, No. 150, and is also identified with the Modern Woodmen of America.
      While his is a well rounded nature, in which due attention is given to the various interests bearing upon man's physical, mental and moral development, his time naturally is given mostly to his business affairs, and he is now the owner of two hundred acres of choice land, in the management of which he displays excellent business foresight and sagacity. He is seldom at error in matters of judgment, is capable and honest, and success has come to him as a result of well directed effort. He bids fair to repeat the work of his father, who has long been numbered as one of the prosperous and leading farmers of the county. Already he has a fine farm, in the midst of which stands a handsome residence. Near by are good barns and outbuildings for the shelter of grain and stock and these in turn are surrounded with broad fields, giving promise of golden harvests. No modern equipment of a model farm is lacking and he is always interested in everything that pertains to agricultural progress. Fifty years ago people were riding to town in this part of the state behind the slow plodding Ox. Today Mr. Piper covers a distance of twelve miles in thirty-five minutes in his automobile. Equally pronounced progress has been made in other departments of farm work and with all Mr. Piper has kept in touch. Money making is not the sole end and aim of his life, for while he is successful hospitality reigns supreme, the Piper residence being of a favorite resort with the many friends of the family.
