Notice biographique

Herman A. Wegner was born in 1877. Around 1923, he moved to St. Cloud, Minnesota from Montana. He resided in St. Cloud from that time until his death in 1947. He had worked on the Flathead Indian Reservation in Montana as a teacher. He also worked on the Blackfeet Reservation as an engineer. He owned some rental property, from which he secured an income. He also worked in Minnesota at the Veteran's Administration Hospital, and did some extra carpentry work.

Wegner married Christine M. Clausen (1889-1980) in around 1912. The couple had two children: Henry Wegner, born in 1915 or 1916, and Rose Wegner, born in 1918. Henry lived in St. Cloud all his life. Rose resided in St. Cloud until about the age of 19. She then moved to Washington D.C., where she worked in the Census Bureau, and later moved to Chicago and Minneapolis, working in federal government agencies. She was with the Department of Interior office in Minneapolis for many years. She returned to St. Cloud around 1973, and died there in 1984.
