Mter their marriage, Christ took over his father's farm west of County Trunk C, north of Seymour on Tubbs Road, Outagamie County.

      In 1952 Christ retired and sold his farm to his son Robert. They then moved across the road and lived with their son Leonard on Hackel Road, Town of Osborn, Outagamie County. In 1960 they bought a house at 316 Droeger Street, Seymour, where they lived until Christ's death on October 10, 1969.
      After Christ's death, Cora sold the house and lived with her daughter Theresa Sievert until she died on February 4,
      1971. Christ and Cora are buried in Highland Memorial Park, Appleton.
