- E. J. MORROW, who is successfully engaged in business at Appleton, Wisconsin, as one of the proprietors of the Appleton Tea and Coffee Company, was born February 16, 1878, in Menasha, Wisconsin, a son of William and Mary (Quinn) Morrow, and a grandson of James Morrow, who came from Ireland and became an early settler of Outagamie county, was engaged actively in politics, dealt extensively in lumber and was the father of a family of seven girls and five boys. William Morrow, who is now living retired in Appleton, had two sons: E. J., and William, the latter born June 10, 1880. E. J. Morrow received a good publie school education and also attended St. Mary's Catholic school, and as a young man worked for the Chicago Record-Herald, where he soon rose to the office of State collector of Wisconsin. After severing his connections with this newspaper he traveled on the road for a few years, and in March, 1903, with his brother, who had also been a traveling man they formed a partnership with Michael Garvey, called the Appleton Tea and Coffee Company. The company's store is located at No. 937 College avenue, and handles a full line of teas, coffees, spices and china, operates four wagons and gives attention to a trade that resides within a radius of forty or more miles of Appleton. That this concern is the largest in its line in the city is due to the conscientious efforts and business ability of the brothers, who are not only good business men and public-spirited citizens, but men whose friendship is valued by a wide circle of acquaintances. They are consistent members of St. Mary's Catholic Church, which they have attended since boyhood, and both vote the Democratic ticket although they have been too busy in a business way to engage actively in politics.
