              HON. GEORGE GRIMMER, lumberman and capitalist, Kewaunee.
	    The subject of this sketch is a native of St. Davids, New
	    Brunswick, born Feb. 28, 1827. Came to Wisconsin in 1850, and
	    remained about two years and six months in Shawano and Neenah,
	    and finally located in Kewaunee in 1853, where he has since
	    resided. He worked at lumbering, on a salary, until 1862, when
	    he associated in the firm of SLAUSON, GRIMMER & Co., lumber
	    manufacturers. In 1877, this company dissolved partnership. MR.
	    GRIMMER is now the only settler living in Kewaunee that came
	    here prior to 1853. His principal business now is loaning money
	    on real estate. He represented the First Senatorial District in
	    the State Senate, in the years 1877-78-79-80. Married in 1860,
	    to MISS BERTHA LORENZ. Has one son and daughter.
