Biography:
FRED DOROW, mayor of Seymour, Wisconsin, is serving in his third term in the office of the chief executive of the city. He is a native of the Fatherland, having been born in Pomar, Germany, September 26, 1852, and is a son of Fred and Sophia (Balfous) Dorow, who came to America in 1869 with their four children: Charles, Hettie, Minnie and Fred. They started for the United States, but the mother died in Montreal, Canada, where the family was held in quarantine, and the two sisters went into a Catholic institute. Fred Dorow was sick for three months, and when he had fully recovered the family came on to Black Wolf, in Winnebago county, Wisconsin, where they resided for five years.
