Kreutzer, Henry (8 February 1867 - 19??)

HENRY KREUTZER, who conducts a hardware and furniture business at Athens, Wis., where he is one of the leading men, was born in the town of Mequon, Marathon County, Wis., February 8, 1867, and is a son of Andrew A. Kreutzer.  

Henry Kreutzer attended the public schools in his native neighborhood and remained at home assisting his father on the farm until he was twenty-two years of age. For the next five years he was a clerk in a store at Athens and then embarked for himself in the hardware line and two years later added a stock of furniture. He has a wide circle of friends and acquaintances and does a very satisfactory business. Although independent in his political views he has frequently been elected to town offices as a stable and reliable man and has also been president of the village of Athens.  

On January 1, 1888, Mr. Kreutzer was married to Miss Nellie C. Worden, a daughter of D. W. Worden of Marathon County, who was a lumberman during the greater part of his life. Mrs. Kreutzer has three brothers and one sister: James, Oscar, William, and Margaret, who is the wife of William Curler. Mr. and Mrs. Kreutzer have four children: Lillian, Henry, Phillip and Edna. Henry Kreutzer is a resident of St. Paul, where he has charge of the tinware department for the hardware establishment of G. Summers. Mr. Kreutzer and family attend the Lutheran Church. He belongs to the Masonic fraternity, the Blue Lodge and Colby Chapter, at Bedford; and to the M. W. A., the F. O. E. and the Beavers, all at Athens.
