AbstractBiographical profile of August H. Stange, who was born near Stettin, Pomerania, in 1853, and was brought to America when he was one and half years old. By 1881 he came to Merrill, Lincoln County, Wisconsin, and became a prominent citizen. Among his many accomplishments were the building of sawmills and "one of the largest sash and door manufacturing plants n the world." In 1907 he opened the Badger Opera House, followed closely by the Badger Hotel. He also donated land for parks and for the building of the German Lutheran Church.
