    •      The following biographical sketch of Charles A. Hillweg was published in 1892.

           Dr. Charles A. Hillweg, of Corning, was born in Muscatine, Iowa, June 26, 1856, the son of Rev. P. and Martha (Danker) Hillweg. His father was a German Methodist Episcopal minister, who is now retired after thirty-two years of service, and his mother is also still living; they are residing in this State. Mr. Hillweg finished his education at the Platteville Wisconsin State Normal School, then taught school one year, began the study of medicine in the office of Dr. H. T. Snyder, and finally graduated, in 1878, at the Hahnemann Medical College of Chicago. He began practice in Iowa, then followed his profession in Milwaukee, Wisconsin, and in 1886 established himself in Corning. His thoroughness and conscientiousness soon brought him a large patronage, as he is one of the best representatives of his school in this part of the State. Of course he is recognized as a sufficiently well qualified physician by the State Board of Health. He is also a practicing surgeon.
           In Chicago, in 1878, he married Miss A. E. Hastings, a native of Canada, and they have three children. One daughter, M. Irene, died at the age of eight years: Charles M. U. and Aileen I. are living.
           In his political views Dr. Hillweg is a stalwart Republican. At present he is chairman of the County Central Committee.

           One of Charles' obituaries reported that the family took up residence in Corning, Iowa in 1887.
