Clark Page is engaged in farming and stock-raising in the town of Berlin, Green Lake County, his home being on section 
23, in the house were he was born some thirty-three years ago.  His birth occurred on the 30th of January, 1856, and 
he is of English descent.  He is a son of Samuel F. and Susan A. (Fuller) Page, a short history of whom is given in 
the sketch of Albert Page.  The days of his boyhood and youth were spent in much the usual manner of farmer lads, he 
assisting in the labors incident to that life in the summer months, while in the winter season he attended the district 
school.  He afterward entered the Berlin High School, but was deterred from completing the course by the death of his 
father, who was killed by a runaway team.  His duty was then at home.  The management of a large farm devolved upon him 
and his brother Albert and they operate it conjointly still.

On Christmas Day of 1883, Mr. Page united his destiny with that of Miss Kittie M., the accomplished daughter of Dr. Miles 
Mix, whose sketch appears elsewhere in this volume.  She was born in Green Lake County, Feb. 5, 1859, and three children 
grace their union - Guy, Claude F. and Ethel.

Mrs. Page is a member of the Baptist church, to the support of which Mr. Page contributes liberally though he is not a 
member.  On attaining his majority he identified himself with the Republican party, but now casts his ballot with the 
Prohibition party.  He is the owner of 225 acres of land and in the management of his farm displays much ability.  He 
is engaged in raising cattle, Shropshire sheep and a fine grade of horses, and in connection with his other business 
interests he and his brother own and operate a dairy and cheese factory, which has a capacity of about 9,000 pounds 
annually.  As a representative of one of its leading farmers, we gladly represent Mr. Page in this volume.
