Notes - It states in the History of Outagamie County: "Henry Jansen, who is engaged in extensive agricultural operations on a finely-cultivated tract of seventy-six acres situated in section 26, Buchanan township, is a native of the Province of Gelderland, Holland, and was born October 3, 1840, a son of Jacob and Christina Jansen. They came to America in 1850, settling in Kaukauna township, where they purchased forty acres of wild land, and Mr. Jansen cut the trees and he weed the logs for a little shanty. He had nothing but his ax to start work with, but as the years passed by he gradually added to his stock of equipment, and at the time of his death was the owner of about 100 acres of excellent land. Both he and his wife died on the farm and were buried in Little chute Cemetery. Henry Jansen was the sixth of a family of fourteen children, and he remained at home until he had attained his majority, at which time he started working for wages, and so continued until he was twenty-seven. He then bought the place which he is now operating, at that time all wooded land with no improvements, and he now has it all under cultivation. He was married in 1867 to Miss Nellie Williams, of Outagamie county, daughter of John Williams, and she died in 1869, after eighteen months of married life, and is buried in Little Chute Cemetery. One child was born to this union and it died shortly after its mother's death. One year later Mr. Jansen was married to Miss Mary Ruvenrink, born August 26, 1838, and died April 4, 1911, whose parents spent their lives in Holland. Five children were born to this union, of whom two are still living: Mary, who married George Kamps, and now lives in Buchanan township, having nine children; and Henry, who is married and lives with his father, having one child. Mr. Jansen is a Democrat in politics and the religious connection of the family is with the Kimberly Catholic Church."
Immigrated from Holland to the U.S. in 1853.
