Lloyd Newton Rezin, a respected citizen of Cranmoor Township, who is engaged in cranberry raising there, was born at Rudolph, Wood County, April 12, 1893, son of Richard and Pearl (Forbes) Rezin. The parents were both born in this county and were farmers in Rudolph Township for a number of years, but for the last 20 years Richard Rezin has been engaged in cranberry culture in Jackson County. Prior to that for ten years he was in the cranberry business in Cranmoor. They have six children living, Isabelle, Byrl, Leslie, Daniel, Russell and Lloyd. Lloyd Newton Rezin was reared on his parents' farm and at the age of seven years went with the family to Jackson County, where he attended school. He also spent one year in the high school at Wis. Rapids and one year in the Tomah High School. For a number of years, or until 1919, he worked in the marsh with his father, and during that period gained a thorough knowledge of the business. He then returned to Wood County and in Cranmoor Township bought 190 acres of cranberry marsh, the tract being known as the old Fitch marsh and including all the buildings. He has now ten acres in berries and has taken his place among the representative men of his calling in this county. His society affiliations include membership in the Wis. Cranberry Growers' Association and the American Cranberry Exchange. On June 21, 1917, Mr. Rezin was united in marriage with Iva Stallard, born Jan. 7, 1896, daughter of Frank and Delia (Bill) Stallard, her parents being old settlers in Humbird, Clark County, Wis. They are now living in the state of Washington. Mr. and Mrs. Rezin have three children, one son and two daughters, namely: Helen, born March 18, 1918; Douglass, born Nov. 19, 1919; and Jane, born Sept. 29, 1921.
