  HISTORY OF BROWN COUNTY, VOLUME 2, PAGE 342, S.J. CLARKE
  JOHN EARLY John Early died in Green Bay on the 27th of November, 1910, in the seventy-second year of his age. His death was deeply deplored and widely regretted by his fellow citizens for he stood high in the community, and his passing deprived the city of a man who for many years was prominently connected with municipal development in the promotion of laudable business enterprises. Mr. Early was of Irish parentage. His father, Timothy Early, was born in the Emerald isle and came to New York city at an early date. On removing to Wisconsin in 1852 he settled in Hollandtown, Brown county, where he farmed successfully for a number of years. His wife bore the maiden name of Bridget White. John Early received an ordinary country-school education in New York state and accompanied his parents on their removal to Hollandtown. Wisconsin, where he resided until about 1894. He was engaged in agricultural pursuits and was also extensively interested in the buying and selling of land. He made real estate one of the important features of his commercial life and when he removed to Green Bay he continued to engage in that business in addition to his duties as mechanical and stationary engineer for the Chicago, Milwaukee & St. Paul Railroad Company. He subsequently severed that connection and turned his attention to the retail liquor business, always keeping up his identification with real-estate activities. His business life was distinguished by an intelligent knowledge of land values in the various states in which his real-estate connections extended, and by standards of commercial integrity and honor which are rare in this day and age. In 1882 Mr. Early was united in marriage to Miss Mary Brogan, a daughter of John and Bridget Brogan. Her father, a prominent farmer in Hollandtown, was among the original settlers of that village and is still living there at the age of ninety-two years. Her mother died in 191 1 at the age of ninety. Mr. and Mrs. John Early became the parents of five children: William, who maintains his residence in Chicago, Illinois; Edward J., who lives in Green Bay where he is prominent in the affairs of the Early Real Estate Company with offices at 109 West Walnut street ; Mary, who holds the responsible position of superintendent of the Nurses' Training School in New York city ; and James and Ellen, both residing in Green Bay. Mrs. Early passed away in 1897. During his life Mr. Early gave his political allegiance to the democratic party and served his city as a member of the board of aldermen from 1906 to 1910. His public life like his industrial career was distinguished by energy and resourcefulness directed along worthy lines and won for him a still better place in the esteem and respect of his fellow citizens. He was prominent in the Catholic Order of Foresters but beyond this had no fraternal affiliations. He was a member of the Roman Catholic church. His life was molded along honorable and upright lines, and he attracted to himself numerous friends among the representative citizens of Green Bay, being held in universal respect for his exemplary personal life, his high sense of honor and his rare qualities of citizenship.
