by Frank H. Lyman Vol. 2, The S. J. Clarke Publishing Co., Chicago, 1916.




One of the enterprising young business men of Kenosha is Frank C. Isermann. The family name is now synonymous with commercial enterprise, progress and reliability in the city, where the firm of Isermann Brothers has maintained a clothing establishment since 1892. He whose name introduces this review was born in Kenosha, July 31, 1884, a son of Anthony and Mary (Bedesem) Isermann, and, like the others of the household, he attended the public schools and also qualified for business life by thorough training in the College of Commerce. He then entered the employ of his elder brothers, who in 1892 had established a clothing store, and under their direction he learned the trade. When the business was incorporated in 1915 he was made secretary and now occupies that position.

Mr. Isermann is prominent in the Knights of Columbus, being grand knight of Council No. 973. He is also identified with the Benevolent Protective Order of Elks. The family is an old one of Kenosha and the sons have made for themselves a most creditable position in the commercial circles of their native city.
