One of the truly representative citizens of southeastern Idaho, one who
has attained popularity and prominence in connection with industrial
activities and the business life of his section, Mr. Haderlie is now
energetically engaged, not only in ranching and cattle-raising, but also
in the manufacture of lumber, the center of his operations and his
residence now being located three and one-half miles northwest of
Freedom postoffice, Wyo., which is his address, and lying in Bannock
county, Idaho. Mr. Haderlie is one of the generous contributions the
virile republic of Switzerland has made to the development of the Great
West of the American union, since he was born in that fair land of
magnificent scenery on March 28, 1859, a son of J. V. and Anna H.
(Zollinger) Haderlie, both parents descending from a long line of hardy
Swiss ancestors who well assisted in preserving the liberties of their
native land.
Here his parents attained mature life, married, and
passed years of productive industry, until occurred their emigration, in
1866, when, becoming members of the Mormon church, they took up their
line of march for Utah, where they located at Providence. They were most
valuable acquisitions to its population, the father laboring diligently
at carpentry and farming, and still there making his home, consistently
and very usefully performing the duties of his office of high priest of
the Mormon church, his faithful wife crossing the river of death in
1901, at the age of sixty-nine years, being the mother of twelve
children.
Until he was twenty-two years old did the subject of
this sketch remain at or near the parental homestead at Providence,
gathering instruction and practical wisdom from schools and his varied
experiences in the different occupations in which he engaged, following
carpentry for nearly twenty years in Utah. In 1888 he came to Idaho and
to Bannock county, after a successful mission to Germany and
Switzerland, and located homestead and desert claims to the amount of
320 acres, engaging here at first with his accustomed energy and ability
in prosperous farming and in stock-raising. In addition to his extensive
interests in these lines, Mr. Haderlie has erected a sawmill, a
much-needed institution here, which is now in successful operation,
cutting an average of 5,000 feet a day. A sterling Democrat in political
creed, Mr. Haderlie has projected his individuality upon the political
field of this vicinity with his accustomed energy and spirit, and has
for some years creditably filled the office of justice of the peace; for
eight years he was the capable trustee of his county, while in the
circles of his church he is one of the Seventies.
Mr. Haderlie
united in marriage with Miss Anna B. Schiess, born on June 30, 1882, a
native of Switzerland and a daughter of John and Anna (Kurtsteiner)
Schiess, emigrants from their native land to Utah, where in quiet
pastoral life they located at Providence until the death of the mother,
the father thereafter being the recipient of the loving care of his
daughter, as a member of the family circle of Mr. Haderlie. In this
Idaho home is a family of sixteen children: Henry W., Lillie B., John
J., David A., Herman L., Anna, Lula, Ida M., Edward (deceased), Milford,
Austin, Frederick W., Charles M., Clifford, Corlett, Oliver, Roy and
Herman.
