Biography:
E. W. TAMM, one of the younger generation of business men of Kaukauna, Wisconsin, who is the proprietor of a dry goods and grocery establishment in this city, was born in Calumet county, Wisconsin, March 2, 1884, and is a son of August and Minnie (Westfall) Tamm, natives of Germany. Charles Tamm, the grandfather of E. W. Tamm, was born in Germany, and in 1863 brought his family to the United States, settling in Calumet county. Here August Tamm bought wild land, there being but three white families in the county, and there he has engaged in agricultural pursuits up to the present time. His wife, who is also living there, came to this country alone in 1873. They had a family of five sons, of whom all are living but one. E. W. Tamm received his early education in the schools of the vicinity of his father's farm, on which he worked while not engrossed with his studies, and later he attended Boyle's Business College at Omaha, Nebraska, from which he was graduated in 1908. He secured a bookkeeper position in an Omaha mercantile establishment, where he remained one year, then going to Appleton, where he was employed as bookkeeper for the St. Paul Railroad until 1908. In that year he purchased the store of William Conrad, at Kaukauna, which he has since conducted with much success. He carries a full and up-to-date line of dry aroods and groceries, and has built up a large and lucrative trade. His building has a floor space 26x84 feet, consists of two stories and a basement, and is equipped with all modern appliances and conveniences. In 1908, Mr. Tamm was married to Bertha Wieting, of Kiel, Wisconsin, daughter of Fred and May Wieting. Mr. and Mrs. Tamm are consistent members of the Methodist Church. He is connected fraternally with the Masonic order, and is very popular among the members of his lodge.
