| 4663 | from "The La Crosse Tribune", 11 Dec 1905 (newspapers.com) HOLZHAMMER, "ICE KING", GONE George Holzhammer, Sr., the "Ice King", and one of the most prominent of the elder settlers in this part of the country, is dead. The end came at 5 o'clock yesterday afternoon at the home of his son, George Holzhammer, Jr., on the Mormon conlee road, after an illness of two weeks. Deceased was born in German 78 years ago and came to this county in 1852, settling in Juneau county. In 1857 he moved to Brownsville, where he has since resided. For many years he conducted a freight traffic business between La Crosse adn Brownville, and it was in the pursuit of business that he acquired the title of "Ice King." For 47 consecutive years, covering the entire period of his residence in Brownsville, he each winter laid out the ice road between Brownsville and La Crosse and drove the first team over it. His judgement in matters pertaining to the ice seemed to be unerring and his roads over the father of waters could always be traveled with every assurance of safety. During the half century that he spent on and around the father of waters the older Holzhammer saved the lives of many people and more than once his humanitarian work has been recognized by the national humane society. Deceased is survived by two sons, Jacob and George of La Crosse, and four daughters, Mrs. John Guenther, Mrs. John Coyle and Mrs. Joseph Real of Minneapolis, and Mrs. Geo. Volz of this city. Funeral services will be held tomorrow morning at the cathedral and the remains will be taken to Brownsville on the noon train for interment in the Catholic cemetery there. | Holzhammer, George (I1202)
