Bio
Web site: http://www.usgennet.org/usa/ne/topic/resources/OLLibrary/PlatHist/Vol_II/ppp2p364.html Among the successful farmers of St. Bernard township is E. J. Weidner, who was born in Cook county, Illinois, June 24,1869, a son of Jacob and Mary Weidner. The parents removed to Platte county, Nebraska, in 1883. E. J. Weidner came to this county with his brother, Adam Weidner, in 1884, a year after his parents had removed here. During the greater part of the time that has since intervened he has resided upon the same farm on section 14, St. Bernard township, and he has proven a very efficient agriculturist. He owns one hundred and sixty acres of land, which is well improved, and derives a good income from his farm. From 1907 until 1912 he resided in Lindsay, where he owned and operated the electric light plant. Subsequently he conducted a garage in Lindsay for two years but in 1914 returned to the farm, where he has since remained. On the 24th of November, 1891, Mr. Weidner was married to Miss Della Albrecht, a daughter of John Albrecht, and to this union have been born ten children, as follows: Mary, now the wife of Allen Broehle, of this county; and Anna, Henrietta, Herman, Anastasia, Raymond, Anthony, Alice, Luella and Clare, all at home. The political allegiance of Mr. Weidner is given to the democratic party, and his religious faith is that of the Catholic church. His has been a life of wisely directed energy, and he has won a gratifying measure of financial success. He has also gained the full confidence and goodwill of those with whom he has been brought into contact.
