Dr. Hauri, the Schoolmaster, was born on a dairy farm in a Swiss/German community in
Wisconsin.
He started his apprenticeship in commercial beekeeping while still in eighth grade. He was drafted in 1965 and after ten years in the Army returned to beekeeping, becoming a Bee Master in 1975.
Dr. Hauri ran a commercial beekeeping company with 1500 hives, on 38 farms in four counties in
Wisconsin and
Illinois.
When
health problems forced his retirement from full time beekeeping, he devoted his time to living history and became a “Minister at Large" to the community of
historical reactors. He received a Doctor of Divinity in 2002, along with the appointment to Bishop at Large.
Currently he is working on second Doctoral degree focusing on the part that the Protestant reformation had on settling of America from a sociological and economic point of view. And, of course, he is still trying to get people to think.
