ANTHONY M. BAYER - Vol III, pg 807
Anthony M. Bayer, a native son of Minneapolis, is recognized as one of the
talented attorneys of the city and has been particularly successful in the field
of corporation law, while he is also at the head of important business
interests. He was born in this city, June 10, 1876, and his parents were Andrew
and Ann (Berndgen) Bayer. Andrew Bayer was a well known hotel man of
Minneapolis, devoting his life to that business. He had long survived the
mother, who passed away in 1882, at the age of thirty-nine.
In the acquirement of an education A. M. Bayer attended the public schools of
Minneapolis and after completing the curriculum of the South h'igh school he
en­tered the University of Minnesota, from which he was graduated in 1898,
having taken the full course in law. He then entered the law office of John Day
Smith, with whom he was associated for three years, and afterward practiced law
independently in Min­neapolis until 1906. He then practiced for two years in
Duluth, then returning to Minneapolis, where he has practiced since and his
legal acumen has won for him a liberal clientele. Mr. Bayer has been equally
successful as a business man and is presi­dent of and attorney for Bols,
Incorporated, which maintains offices in the Plymouth building and is
capitalized at one hundred thousand dollars.
In Duluth, Minnesota, in November, 1906, Mr. Bayer was married to Miss Agnes
Bousquet, a daughter of Emanuel Bousquet, a successful merchant of this state,
who has retired from business affairs and has now reached the age of
seventy-three. Mr. and Mrs. Bayer reside in an attractive home, of which he is
the owner, and five children have been born to them: Lucile, Margaret, Anthony
Bell, Betty and June, aged, re­spectively, sixteen, thirteen, eleven, nine and
seven years.
Mr. Bayer is a stanch democrat in his political views and in religious faith he
is a Congregationalist. His fraternal relations are with the Masons and the Elks
and for recreation he turns to golf. A man of steadfast purpose and sterling
integrity he has dignified the profession of his choice, and years of
experience, constant readin7 and natural inclination have brought him to the
fore in legal circles of Minneapolis.
