He was born May 4, 1912, on the family farm south of Ripon to Rudolph and Amelia Klawitter Hahn. He attended Prairie Lawn School in rural Ripon. Upon completion of his studies he began his farming career with his father. On September 24, 1938, he married Grace Peschke and moved to a farm east of Ripon where he continued farm operation until forced into early retirement by ill health in 1968.

Alfred and his wife moved to their present home on Hall St. in 1973. By 1978, his health had improved and he was able to enjoy a second career as a janitor for Naas Foods of Pickett until 1985 when poor health required a return to retirement.
