This is my Great Grandfather- he was one of the first street railway construction foreman in the country. He superintended the crew which installed Appleton's first car tracks. He also was one of the six chartered members of Zion Lutheran Church. He was Born in Carnitz, Germany. He came to America and settled in Appleton in1881. He was living At 622 E. Randall St. when he died June 1st 1930 he was 79. He left a wife, three sons Albert and Louis of Appleton, and William Jr. of Milwaukee, four daughters: Mrs. Anna Dundon, from Ysilanti, Mich, Mrs John Hanway ( my grandmother) and Mrs. Peter Gregory both from Detroit, Mich, and Mrs. William West of Cleveland, Ohio and 15 grandchildren. I am hoping desperately to find a family member. I have never met any of my Grandmothers family and recently found out my Great Grandfathers name. I live in Florida, so I have to do the research from afar. Any help is greatly appreciated. Kitty

"I checked with Craig Nohr of Appleton. He has a family history book, but none of the entries matched up with this William." Thank you for checking. I'm just sorry that it didn't turn out good for me. I'll keep hoping that someone will find something. thanks again- K
