The parents of Mr. Schueller, who were natives of Germany, came to the United States as young people and were married in Wisconsin. Lawrence Schueller came to Ozaukee county in 1846, and his life was spent there in agricultural pursuits, his death occurring in 1905, while his widow survived him two years. They were the parents of twelve children, of whom eleven grew to maturity and ten are still alive. Engelbert Schueller received a public school education and also studied at home, and at the age of eighteen years he began to teach. About this time he also started to study music, and entered St. Francis Normal School, from which he was graduated in 1878.

Since that time he has been organist at St. Mary's Church. For a number of years he did editorial work and was manager of the Appleton Wecker und Samstags Bote, and in 1911 he was elected commissioner of Appleton, the first time the city has had that form of government. Mr. Schueller and his family attend St. Mary's and St. Joseph's Catholic Church, and in political matters he is Democratic. Mr. Schueller is the owner of a fine farm in Calumet county. On May 9, 1882, he was married to Helene Hopfensperger, of Outagamie county, Wisconsin, daughter of John Hopfensperger, who came to America about 1846, locating in Calumet county, and later removed to Outagamie county, where he was engaged in butchering.
