Andrew J. Kryder lives on section 30. His farm of 160 acres is a part of the land entered by Daniel Baxter in 1836. His brother, John J. Kryder, who lived on the same section, also has a farm of 160 acres, a part of the land bought by Baxter at the same time. Andrew J. Kryder also owns another farm of eighty acres on section 31, adjoining the homestead. Mr. Kryder settled here in 1862, coming from Stephenson Co., Ill. He was born in Clinton Co., Penn., May 16, 1831. His father, John Kryder, brought the family to Stephenson Co., Ill., in 1847, where he now lives, in the town of Lancaster. The mother died there in 1866. Andrew J., the subject of this sketch, was married in Buckeye township, Stephenson county, Dec. 28, 1857, to Lavina Zimmerman. She was born in Lycoming Co., Penn., Sept. 16, 1831, and came west with her father's family settling in Buckeye in 1846. Her father, Mathias Zimmerman, died March 2, 1875. Her mother, Catherine Zimmerman, died in May, 1862. Mr. and Mrs. Kryder lived on his father's farm until they made their removal, in 1862, to their present residence. They have had three children--Catharine Ann, born Oct. 30, 1858, and died in infancy; Charles Wesley, born Oct. 25, 1860; Clara Alice, born Oct. 23, 1863. Both are living with their parents. Mr. Kryder is one of the thorough practical farmers of Spring Grove.
