    Biography:
    MRS. ANNA CATHERINE VANDERBERG.
    Mrs. Anna Catherine Vanderberg is one of the highly esteemed residents of Green Bay and a representative of one of the honored pioneer families here. She was born on the 15th of August, 1837, in Blankenhain, Prussia, a daughter of Nicholas Juley and his wife, Catherine Raths. The father was born in Germany, July 12, 1806, and the mother on the 1st of April, 1812. She was a daughter of Peter and Maria Clara (Simmons) Raths. Nicholas Juley followed the occupation of shoe-maker as a life work. He came with his family to America in 1842 and, making his way into the interior of the country, settled at Green Bay, where he continued to reside to the time of his death, which occurred in 1864, when he had reached the age of forty-eight years. His wife long survived him, passing away in Freedom, Wisconsin, February 5, 1894, at the venerable age of nearly eighty-two years. The daughter, Anna Catherine Juley, was but four years of age when brought to the new world by her father and for more than sixty years she has been a resident of Brown county. Here she grew to womanhood and was married to Albert Vanderberg, who was born in the northern part of Holland, October 27, 1833, a son of Laurence and Johanna (DeWitt) Yanderberg. The father was born April 14, 1796, and died April 14, 1867, on the seventy-first anniversary of his birth. His wife, who was born in 1801, passed away March 23, 1885. They had come to America in 1853. settling at Little Chute, Wisconsin, while subsequently the'- removed to Freedom, this state, where they are buried.
    After his school days were over Albert Yanderberg worked in the mills of Freedom at different intervals and subsequently went to Oconto, Wisconsin, where he engaged in loading vessels during the summer seasons, while the winter months were spent in the lumber camps. Ten years afterward he came to Green Bay and here opened a grocery store which he conducted successfully to the time of his death, which occurred July 27, 1 901. 'He carried a large and carefully selected line of staple and fancy groceries and his business management and enterprise were such as brought to him substantial success. Following his demise Mrs. Yanderberg continued to manage the store until 1907, when it was taken over by her sonin- law, who is still in charge.
    Mr. and Mrs. Vanderberg were the parents of four children. William Ernest, living at Whitewater, Wisconsin, wedded Catherine O'Neil and they have two children, both of whom are now married, and in that line of the family there are three great-grandchildren. Lawrence R., the second son of Mrs. Vanderberg, is living at home in Green Bay. Clara Anna, born March 5, 1869, in Oconto, is the wife of Henry L. De Tennis, who was born in Menasha, February 6, 1876, and was one of a family of five children, who, however, were left orphans at a very early age, so that he was reared in an orphan asylum. Mr. and Mrs. De Tennis have two children : Harry Paul, born June 30, 1908; and Maria Clara, April 1, 1910. Catherine Mary, born July 31, 1872. is the wife of George M. Kelly, a conductor on the St. Paul railroad. He was born in Oconto, Wisconsin, in 1879, a son of John and Margaret (Reynolds) Kelly, both of whom are deceased. The father came to America when a child of five years, his parents having died in Ireland, after which he was brought by friends to the new world. Mr. and Mrs. George M. Kelly have three children: Laurence John, born August 12, 1905; Catherine May, December 11, 1907; and Georgia Mary, September 15, 1911.
    Mr. Vanderberg was a communicant of the Catholic church with which Mrs. Yanderberg is still identified in Green Bay. Few of the residents of this city have so long resided here. Mrs. Yanderberg has been a witness of the growth of Green Bay from villagehood and has ever been deeply interested in what has been accomplished. Hers has been a wide acquaintance here and throughout the long years of her connection with this city she has made many friends. A kindly spirit and admirable characteristics have won her the high regard of all and she is today one of the most esteemed ladies of Green Bav.
