The Mick Family from "Before Today"

From: Before Today, A History of Holt County Nebraska
By Nellie Snyder Yost
Published by Miles Publishing Co, O'Neil Nebraska 1976

Peter Mick, came to Wisconsin from Germany in the 1860’s, married there in 1870 and had two sons, Peter and Mathew. The mother died at Mathew’s birth and the father remarried. Peter Weber a settler from southeast of Atkinson, went to Wisconsin to visit relatives at Mineral Point, Wisconsin, where there he met and married Susan Mick, one of Peter Mick’s 6 children by his second marriage. They returned to Holt County to live on Weber’s place. Soon after ward, Mathew Mick decided to move to Atkinson and join his sister. He came by train, found work in the Valley and became friends of the Seger family.

In Nov 1901 he married Caroline Seger at St Joseph’s Church. Later he homesteaded one of the few remaining quarters of unclaimed land, some 6 miles southwest of Atkinson. About a year after Mathew’s marriage a neighboring homesteader, Bernard Bonenberger, went to Wisconsin, married Caroline’s sister, Mary Mick and brought her back to the valley.

Mathew and Caroline were the parents of 4 children, all of whom are married and living in or around Atkinson. Caroline died in 1945, Mathew stayed on at the home place until his grandson came home from the Army in 1947 and bought the homestead. Mathew died 2 years later.
