CHARLES F. HOLLENBECK, a native of Herkimer County, New York, was born August
6, 1850, a son of Francis and Margaret (Emery) Hollenbeck. He was married
August 23, 1870, to Hulda Hunsaker, daughter of Bradford and Lao (Stice)
Hunsaker. They have two children: De Loss W., born February 9, 1876; Auda
E., August 10, 1878. One child, a daughter, Clara E., born August 16, 1873,
died December 20, 1873.
Mr. Hollenbeck came to Adair County with his parents in April, 1868. His
father bought a farm, and he lived at home till grown and married. Besides
farming, he has also worked at blacksmithing, wagon making and carpentering.
Of late years he has devoted his entire attention to farming. He and his
wife and son De Loss, who makes his home with his parents, own 120 acres,
three and one-half miles southeast of Kirksville. The farm is well improved,
and their home is very pretty. It is a part of the old Hunsaker homestead,
on which Mr. Hollenbeck was born.
Mr. Hollenbeck is a Prohibitionist in politics, and a member of the Christian
Church.
