    Among the representative and highly respected citizens of Turotownship is Joseph Krumm, a native of Franklin county, whose birthoccurred in Mifflin township March 1, 1839. His father, Martin Krumm,was born in Wurtemburg, Germany, and on coming to the new world took uphis residence in Franklin county, Ohio, about 1818. His first purchaseconsisted of forty acres of land in Mifflin township, to which hesubsequently added a tract of fifty acres, and to the improvement andcultivation of that farm he devoted his time and attention for half acentry. He was about eighty years of age at the time of his death.
    Joseph Krumm aided his father in the farm work until he attainedhis majority, and then rented the farm and operated it on his ownaccount for one year. During the following four years he worked for hisbrother-in-law, Henry Geisick. In the meantime the Civil war had brokenout, and in 1864 he enlisted at Columbus in Company F, One Hundred andThirty-third Ohio Volunteer Infantry, which was first ordered toParkersburg and later to New Creek, Virginia. The regiment next went toWashington, D.C., and from there proceeded down in the Potomac river toCity Point, being under the command of Generals Grant and Butler. Theyparticipated in the engagement between Petersburg and Richmond, and werethen ordered to Fort Powhattan. While there Mr. Krumm was taken ill andsent to Fortress Monroe, where he was confined in the hospital for atime.
    On receiving an honorable discharge he returned to his home in thiscountry and entered the employ of the Baltimore & Ohio Railroad Companyto oversee the making of ties and other timbers for railroad use, havingcharge of one hundred men, and remaining with the railroad company twoyears. It was during this time that Mr. Krumm married Miss MinervaWoodruff, a native of Franklin country, and a daughter of BraceWoodruff. They made their home in a little cabin while he was with therailroad company. On leaving the employ of that corporation Mr. Krummoperated two rented farms one of which belonged to H. M. Carper, theother to Robert Trimble. Subsequently he bought Mr. Carper's farm,paying for the same fourteen thousand dollars, and after owning it eightyears sold the same to Joseph Bernhardt for twenty-one thousand dollars.He next purchased the H. C. Taylor farm in Truro township, which he nowoccupies. It contains one hundred acres, all of which is underexcellent cultivation, and in its operation he is meeting with welldeserved success. Mr. and Mrs. Krumm have had eleven children, eight ofwhom are now living; Noble, Myrta, Robert, Lulu, Blanche, Lyda, Emma andBessie. Those deceased were William, Joseph and Rolley.
    By his ballot Mr. Krumm supports the men and measures of theRepublican party, and for twenty years he most creditably filled theoffice of school director, resigning the position at the end of thattime. For thirty years he has been an active member of the MethodistEpiscopal church, and has given freely to its support. In his socialrelations he is a member of the Independent Order of Odd Fellows and theGrand Army of the Republic, having been connected with the latter orderfor fifteen years. Having started out in life for himself with nocapital and only about three months' schooling, Mr. Krumm deserves greatcredit for the success that he has achieved. He has ever made the mostof his opportunities, and his success is due entirely to his ownwell-directed efforts. In the operation of his farm and sawmills he hasemployed as many as fifty men, and his life illustrates what can beaccomplished through industry, perseverance, good management and adetermination to succeed."

  24. ↑ "the most prosperous was Joseph, born in 1839, who "aided his father inthe farm work until he obtained his majority, and then rented the farmand operated on his own account for one year." The year was 1859;Martin was 75. Joseph saw service with company B of the 133rd regimentof the Ohio national guard at the siege of Petersburg, Virginia, duringthe summer of 1864. Before and after the war, he worked for severalemployers until he bought from David Krumm a hundred acre farm in TruroTownship. There he also operated sawmills, employing as many as 50 menin the two enterprises. The author of his biography praises him forhaving achieved so much, having started in line with no capital and onlythree months of schooling. Presumably Joseph educated himself inseveral ways by working with his father."
