Strotman, William, Valley p. o., Elk, is a farmer, and was born in Hanover, Germany, on December 22, 1823. He was a son of Conrad and Charlotte (Wherman) Strotman, who settled in Elk township in 1833, on what is now known as the Timmerman farm, where they died. They had two children, William and Louisa. William Strotman settled on the farm which he now occupies in 1846, and cleared and improved the same. He was married in 1845 to Lovina Dahle. They have had ten children, seven of whom are now living -- William, Henry, Amos, Jane, Mary A., Samuel and Edward. Lovina was a daughter of Jacob and Sarah Dahle.

Conjecture
