JOHN C. STAMM.

    John C. Stamm has continuously served as county road superintendent of
Pueblo county since appointed to that position on the 1st of January, 1907, and
through the intervening years has made a most excellent record in this
connection. His birth occurred in Marion county, Indiana, on the 17th of June,
1875, his parents being Philip and Eliza (Salter) Stamm. In 1880 the family home
was established in Pueblo, Colorado, where the father successfully followed
carpentering throughout the remainder of his life.

    John C. Stamm acquired his education in the public schools of Pueblo and in
the school of experience has continually broadened his knowledge. After starting
out in the business world be was employed for fifteen years as a boiler maker
and sheet metal worker by the Stearns-Rogers Manufacturing Company of Denver and
Pueblo, his long connection with the concern standing as incontrovertible proof
of his faithfulness and capability. On the 1st of January, 1907, he was
appointed county road superintendent of Pueblo county and in that capacity has
served continuously to the present time, being widely recognized as a most able
and trustworthy official. During the period of his incumbency rough prairie
roads have been converted into splendidly improved highways, many bridges have
been built and the work of development and progress carried steadily forward.

    On the 24th of April, 1909, Mr. Stamm was united in marriage to Miss Rose
Winters, by whom he has a daughter, Ruth. His political allegiance is given to
the democratic party and he is active in support of its men and measures.
Fraternally he is identified with the Benevolent Protective Order of Elks and
the Woodmen of the World. His life from early childhood has been spent in
Pueblo, where he has long enjoyed a most enviable reputation as a respected,
representative and progressive citizen and popular public official.
