• Notes

  EDWARD G. DREISSEN, the proprietor of one of Kaukauna's leading meat markets, and a self-made business man, was born in Buchanan township, Outagamie county, Wisconsin, October 20, 1876, and is a son of John and Mary (Tillman) Dreissen, natives of Holland. Mr. Dreissen's parents came to the United States in 1851, and, taking up wild land, engaged in farming. John Dreissen is now residing in Woodville township, his farm being located on the township line. He and his wife had a family of eleven children, of whom ten are now living. Edward G. Dreissen received a country school education, and in 1892 started to work in a butcher shop at Kaukauna, and during the following year opened an establishment of his own. He has continued in the same business to the present time, and now has a well-ordered establishment, catering to some of Kaukauna's best trade. On November 9, 1898, Mr. Dreissen was united in marriage with Miss Henrietta Wheaton, of Kaukauna, who died November 19, 1905, and on April 9, 1907, he married (second) Lucy King, of Hilbert, Wisconsin. Mr. Dreissen has four children: Everett, Quintem, Lozell and Margaret. He and Mrs. Dreissen are faithful members of the Holy Cross congregation of the Catholic Church, and he holds membership in the Knights of Columbus.
