  Obituary	24 Feb 1960
  Kaukauna Times
  J. Grant Whitman of Kaukauna died Sunday at the age of 95. He was born May 19, 1884 (sic) and his family moved here from Little Chute in 1868 when he was four. His recollections of times past were sharp and clear. As a young man he helped break out the stone for building Nicolet School from a quarry that is now the current site of the high school football field. The only bridge over the river was a floating draw bridge at the end of Wisconsin Avenue. He began working a Thilmany in the 1890's. "There was a year of hardship when we had to wait two months for our pay, and I remember workers coming to their jobs with just one slice of bread and a boiled potato for lunch". Grant recalled when his father accidentally struck his foot with an axe. "The infection resulted in the doctor removing his leg right on our kitchen table". I carved a leg for him out of basswood installed some straps and he got along pretty well with it."
