Dieck
Family in Oconto County
The Dieck Family originated in Selchow,
Marienthal, Kries Greifenhagen, Pommern, which at the time of
their 1873 immigration, was part of the Prussian Empire. They
initially settled in Shawano and Waupaca Counties in Wisconsin. Three of the Dieck family resettled in Oconto County. They were Ernestina Augustina “Augusta” Dieck Johnson and her brothers Herman Dieck and Johannes "John" Dieck.
Sixteen year old Augusta Dieck immigrated to Wisconsin from Stresow, Greifenhagen, Pommern, Prussia, near Mechlenberg, now parts of Germany, with her parents and siblings in 1873. They settled in Shawano County where she met her husband Henry Johnson, that same year. Both worked for several years at the Shawano Hotel, which was owned by Tom Jennings, father of David V. Jennings, later a Senator. Priding himself on his fiscal austerity, the couple saved before marriage for homestead farmland in Oconto County. Augusta Dieck became Mrs. Henry Johnson in 1879, when they were able to purchase the land, mortgage free; 300 acres at $3 per acre. Augusta packed their tools, supplies and belongings for pioneer, frontier life and the couple set out by ox team directly after the marriage. Their first home was a 14 by 20 foot log cabin, considered roomy and well appointed in that time. The wilderness land was cleared by ax and since there was no market for the now valuable hardwood, it was burned in huge piles. Initial crops were planted between stumps, in the sandy loam that had been formed by the thousands of years of natural, undisturbed leaf composting. As the stumps were "pulled" they were moved to the edge of fields to form the first protective fences.
The work was hard, and again, the couple put off buying anything that they did not have the cash for. Working side by side, the new homestead gradually became a farm of value. Hardships for Augusta were many to overcome. Among them, the sudden deaths of their first three children from Dyptheria in 1886 within 2 days. When 6 year old Lydia and not yet 2 year old "Willie" were laid out in their coffins in the home parlor, a photographer was sent for, to take remembrance images. Before leaving, the photographer suggested also taking an image of daughter Caroline, who was dressed up for the visitation, while he was there. That being done, he went off to develop the exposures. Caroline died of Dyptheria the next day. Augusta and Henry had son John Henry the same year of 1886 and daughter Elsie in 1888, also losing two children in infancy, a son in 1890 and a daughter in 1891, during those first years of struggle to establish their home and family. Finances and family began to prosper rapidly as twins Leonard and Lillian were born, followed by Millard, Gladys, Myrtle and Violette, in all 8 children growing up in the household. The log cabin was replaced by a large Victorian house. The farm was profitable with their careful and diligent management and Henry Johnson began his professional climb that eventually lead him to being Wisconsin State Assemblyman. He was first elected in 1900 and served a number of years in that position. Later, he served as the eighteenth Treasurer of Wisconsin from 1913 to 1923. Henry Johnson was a highly respected Wisconsin state Treasurer who was known for his fiscal responsibility, openness in his work, and his abilities to work with others in a kind and respectful way that could be counted on. The family was also based in the state capital of Madison in later years, with a grown son and his family running the farm. Augusta focused her life on her family and in 1922 she was mother to 8 children and grandmother to 24 grandchildren. It was her hope to live to see 100 descendants, along with her husband. However, Augusta died in Madison in 1924 and is buried with Henry, who died in 1941, and 5 of their young children in Pleasant Hill Cemetery in Town of How, Oconto County, Wisconsin.

SURING SCHOOL
DISTRICT LOCAL HISTORY
1979 John Dieck, long known as “the hardware man”, originally came to Suring in 1896 and engaged in the saloon business. In 1900 he started a hardware business. Dieck and H. P. Sorenson were the first in town to sell automobiles. John Dieck built a brick garage next to his hardware store in 1913. The Railroad is Built
In 1896 the Chicago and North Western Railroad was built through Suring. At that time very few buildings stood on the present village site. They were the August Krueger shanty which stood on the location of the present Nolessen home, a partially underground barn constructed of cedar logs on the same site, a lumber shed just north of the John Dieck residence, a vacant store building which had been built by George High on the Oscar Wagner dwelling site, the present O’Connor and Hansen dwellings, some sheds and barns, and the Joe Suring saw mill. In 1898 Herman Groninger distinguished himself as being the first village barber when he set up a chair in the bar room of the hotel where he shaved his customers and cut their hair. He continued to practice his trade until sometime later, when a barber by the name of Bill Roderick built a small shop on main street just west of Dieck’s hardware store and went into business. Another early barber of the village was Charles Dunn who had a chair in the Otto Raisler hardware store, which was a frame structure located on the site of the present grocery department of the Farmer’s Mercantile Company.
In about the year 1899 or 1900 Dr. Jule Conard,
a young physician, decided to take up residence in
the village and practice medicine. He set up his
first office in the same building that had been
occupied by Dr. Goggins but later moved into larger
rooms provided for him above the John Dieck hardware
store. The doctor traveled by means of horse
conveyance throughout the surrounding communities in
attending the sick and visiting his patients.

SURING SCHOOL
DISTRICT LOCAL HISTORY
It is not until
1903 that it was thought necessary for Suring to
have an educational system of its own. The first
meeting of the present school district was held
April 20, of that year to elect officers and to
procure a suitable site for a school building.
At this meeting over which Christ Daniels
presided they choose as school board members
Harry B. Smith as Clerk, John Dieck as Treasurer
and Cornelius Serier as Director. They also
voted to raise $392.00 for maintaining the
school. Mr. Dieck served continuously as school
treasurer from 1903 until July 1928 when he
refused to accept the office again.
Miss Ella
Hanson was the first teacher to take charge in
this little brick schoolhouse. At that time
teachers were paid $40 per month and had to make
sure the fire was going every morning and that
there was plenty of drinking water on hand. The
school year began on October 4, 1903, with the
following students: Roy Dieck, Carrie Dieck
Winger, William Nelson, Meta Giese Stuewer and
Clara Grunnewaldt Wilson.

HISTORY 1908 Fire Suring - Fire spread rapidly from the burning cigar shop and completely destroyed Liberty Hall as well as William Zinglers Furniture Store to the east of it, and a store located where the bank now stands. This store was being operated at the time by Valentine Deeringer and William Thielke. To the west of Liberty Hall, and on the present grocery store department site of the Suring Farmers Mercantile Company, John Dieck had built a fire-proof hardware store. That building, in spite of the fact that the fire ruined it badly, stopped the destructive flames from spreading further westward along the street.
The residents of the
village organized a bucket brigade, but they
were practically helpless in battling the
flames, in their attempt to save the village. A
volunteer fire department, with John Dieck as
its first chief, had been organized that same
year. And, a pumper had been purchased and was
on its way from the factory to the village. But
that was of no help to the fire-fighters on the
evening of January 30,1908.
Becoming An Independent Village In December 1914 the residents of Suring applied to the Circuit Court of Oconto County for an order of incorporation as a village. Up until this time it had been a part of the town of How. On the 22nd day of the same month and year the court granted the order under direction of W. B. Quinlan, Circuit Judge. The electors accepted and approved the incorporation order on January 19, 1915 and on February 16, of the same year the first village election was held and the following officers were elected to direct the affairs and conduct the business of the new village. John Dieck, Trustee
1926 the
Mount Olive Lutheran Ladies Aid was organized
with Mrs. John Dieck as president, Mrs. Matt
Wagner as secretary, Mrs. Henry Jansen as
treasurer. Sometime prior to the organization of
the Mount Olive Aid a number of Lutheran ladies
organized a society to assist in raising money
to build a church and organize a congregation in
the village. This first group was served by the
following officers, Mrs. William Wagner as
president, Mrs. E.F. Buss as vice president and
Mrs. William Thielke as secretary/treasurer.
