Anton Holman, contractor and builder, Cameron, was born in Norway, June 4,
1881, the son of John and Mary Holman, and was brought to America when he
was a year and a half old. He was reared in Cameron, and early became
interested in woodworking. For fifteen years he operated a handle factory
at Cameron. Then he became a contractor and builder. He is a good workman
and a conscientious estimator, and the buildings which he has erected are
all testimonials to his skill and fidelity. He has erected many of the best
houses and barns in this vicinity and his services are greatly in demand.
Mr. Holman was married at Cameron on April 9, 1902, to Hannah Gusta Lempke,
who was born at Cameron on Aug. 8, 1884, the daughter of Albertine Ott and
Herman Lempke. The home of Mr. and Mrs. Holman has been blessed with seven
children: Raymond, Walter, Vernon, Harland, Harris, Adaline and Eugene. The
family faith is that of the German Lutheran Church.
