John Vandeberg
February 4, 1858 - April 29, 1929
John
Vandeberg was an early settler of York Township who came to Clark County from
Fond du Lac County. The 1870
Federal Census for Fond du Lac County shows a John Vandeberg (12) living in Alto
Township as a son to Chris Vandeberg. He
married the former Lillian Lawrence, a daughter of
Horace A. Lawrence, an early
York Township pioneer and Civil War veteran, and his first wife, the former
Lorinda Windsor (a daughter of Anson Windsor, another York pioneer). Horace Lawrence was a son of Jesse and
Almeda (nee Benedict) Lawrence, who also came to York Township in the 1870s.
John was a brother to Abram Vandeberg, who married Lillian’s
half-sister, the former Lois Lawrence. Four
of John and Lillian Vandeberg’s children are also buried in York Center
Cemetery: Alvin Vandeberg, Manley
Vandeberg, Horace Vandeberg, and Ida
Voight.
