Albert Fredrich Toll
b. 3 Dec. 1893, d. 1923
Albert Fredrich Toll was born in Metomen, Wisconsin in 1893 to Elizabeth Schroeder. His father is unknown, but when Albert was about one year old, Elizabeth (age 18) married William Toll joining us to the Toll branch of the tree.
Albert grew up in Lamartine township around the area of Metomen, Wisconsin with his two step-brothers Edward and Fred.
Agricultural School
Albert attended the Ag school in Ripon to learn about farming. This photo shows Albert with some of his classmates. He's standing on the left, behind the sawhorse.
1916-1923
On September 27th 1916, Albert married Martha Scheer from Green Lake, WI. Martha was the youngest daughter of Ferdinand and Albertine Scheer. Martha’s sister Ida Scheer and Albert’s brother Edward Toll signed the marriage certificate as witnesses.
Albert and Martha farmed on land owned by William and Elizabeth Toll. Lloyd recalls stories of Albert being a people-person, very interested in others perhaps to the detriment to his own health. He registered for the World War I draft, but he did not serve.
Albert died in 1923, possibly of Bright’s disease and/or pneumonia. He's buried at Hillside Cemetery in Ripon, Wisconsin.
