History of Outagamie Co.

CHARLES RISTAU, a prominent contractor of Kaukauna, who has been connected with various business enterprises in this city for a long period, was born in West Prussia, Germany, October 3, 1866, and is a son of Gottlieb and Amelia (Karth) Ristau. Mr. Ristau's parents came to the United States in 1871, locating at Utica, New York, and later moving to Minnesota, where Mr. Ristau took up a homestead. In 1874 he came to Kaukauna and was employed on the government dam, but died during the same year. His first wife died in 1867, and in 1869 he was married (second) to Minnie Zimmerman, who was married again after his death. Charles Ristau received a public school education at Kaukauna, and after completing his studies he took up papermaking, becoming boss in the paper mills. Later he entered the retail liquor business, in which he continued for a few years, and in 1893, with Peter J. Helf, he organized the City Brewery at Kaukauna, being one of the proprietors thereof for five years. His next business venture was conducting a hotel with his brother, whom he later bought out, and he continued to conduct this hostelry until July, 1909, when he sold out and engaged in contracting, which has been his occupation to the present time. On August 14, 1888, Mr. Ristau was married to Miss Annie Adrians, daughter of Nicholas Adrians, of Appleton, and they had a family of eight children. Mrs. Ristau died in 1904, and he was married (second) to Minnie Adrians, his first wife's sister. Mr. Ristau is a member of the Elks, the Eagles and the Kaukauna Advancement Club. He has been alderman of the First Ward, and is the owner of Columbia Park, which is now being used by the city. Successful as a business man, and public spirited as a citizen, Mr. Ristau is held in high esteem by his fellow townsmen, and he has an ever-widening circle of warm personal friends.
