Surname: Glisch, Kuhn, Huey, Theobold, Robinson History of Rush County Indiana 1888 Brant & Fuller Chicago Frederick J. Haehl, a prominent farmer of Walker Township, was born in Merchien, Germany, December 26, 1834, being the son of Conrad and Mary B. (Glisch) Haehl, both natives of Germany. When six years old he immigrated from his native land with his parents and came to Rush County, Indiana; stopping, however, about five weeks in Shelby County, Indiana, while in the wilds of the forest, on the farm where our subject now lives, a small log hut was being built for them to live in. In 1850, his father died, and three years later he went to California, crossing the plains in wagon. He remained there three years and returned to this county, where he has since lived, a prosperous and respected farmer. He now owns 240 acres of good land, in a high state of cultivation and well improved. His mother died February 14, 1861. He was married January 6, 1859, to Barbara Kuhn. There was born to this marriage one son, Edward, born January 26, 1861, who on October 23, 1883, was married to Wilhelmina Huey.
