| History of Outagamie County, Wisconsin Page 0909 |
- MARX A. LEMKE, of the city of Kaukauna, was born in Brown county, Wisconsin, September 10, 1858. William and Caroline (Schroeder) Lemke, his parents, came with their four children, Charles, August, Elvina and Minnie, to America in 1858, and for about six years resided on a farm near Milwaukee. They then moved to Brown county, this state, where William Lemke died in 1874, aged fifty-nine years, and Mrs. Lemke in 1901, at eighty-five years of age. Martin A. Lemke received a limited education in the public schools of his native county, and in 1891 came to Kaukauna and purchased the American House. Previous to this, in 1882, he married Bertha Rahn, daughter of Julius Rahn who came to the United States and located near Milwaukee where Mrs. Lemke was born. For seven years Mr. Lemke operated the American House and made it one of the noted and popular hostelries of Wisconsin, then leased the property to others. In the meanwhile he purchased what is now known as the "Lemke Farm" and has since devoted his time and attention to agricultural pursuits. In 1898 he built the Oakgrove cheese factory which was removed when he disposed of it in 1910. In 1902 he built a second cheese factory known as the "Lemke No. 2" which he sold in 1905. In 1898 he took up his residence on the farm and there lived until returning to Kaukauna in 1905. When Mr. Lemke bought his farm it had little beyond the ordinary, but under his wise management it has been brought to a high state of improvement and is considered one of the best in the county. To Mr. and Mrs. Lemke eight children have been born; Walter, dying in infancy; Antone, Elma, Arthur, Hugo, Viola, Laura and Elvera. Lemke is one of the progressive and enterprising men of the county. He served on the county board three years, as school director one year, and he and wife are members of the German Lutheran Church.
