  KARL F. GEORGE BRENNER, a well known citizen of Kaukauna, Wisconsin, where he is extensively engaged in the fuel business, was born in Germany, February 24, 1845, and is a son of John and Mary (Lentz) Brenner. Mrs. Brenner died when Karl was but a boy, and the family came to the United States in 1865, whence Mr. Brenner's brother, George Phillip had preceded them some years. The latter, who was a minister of the Lutheran Church, had a congregation at Oshkosh. Karl received his early education in Germany, and after coming to this country attended a seminary at Addison, Illinois, after which, from 1870 until 1900, he was engaged in teaching school, in Hustisford, Dodge county, Fond du Lac, Neenah and in Kaukauna. In 1900 he entered the coal and wood business with Ed Grebe, and they now have the leading business of its kind in this city. On October 11, 1870, Mr. Brenner was married to Barbara Werner, who was born near Milwaukee, daughter of George and Barbara (Milins) Werner, and they have had six children; Charles G. F., who is a teacher in the Lutheran school at Kaukauna; John, a Lutheran minister, residing in Milwaukee; Lydia, who married Ed Grebe; Ida, who married Carl Guse, of Cudahy, Wisconsin; Anna, assistant postmistress at Cudahy; and Martha, who married Harry Brown, a resident of Spokane, Washington. Mr. and Mrs. Brenner are members of the Lutheran Church. Mr. Brenner is public spirited to a high degree and takes a great interest in any movement that promises the betterment of Kaukauna in any way. He is one of the first members of the library board, to which body he still belongs, and he has always been a great advocate of the cause of education.
