He was raised on the farm and received his education in the district. As a young man Adolph remained on the farm and on July 11, 1948 was united in marriage to Iris Schmidt at Melville. Following their marriage, the couple worked for a number of farmers in eastern Saskatchewan, namely in the Kipling, Stornoway, Birmingham and Grayson districts. The family then lived for a time in Melville, where Adolph worked at a local lumber yard before moving to Moose Jaw in 1956, where he was employed at a local bakery. In 1964 the family moved to the Springside district, where Adolph would farm for the next 20 years. The couple retired from the farm in 1984, and moved into Yorkton.
