Frederick Anton Samuelson was born in Manitowoc, Wisconsin on August 1, 1871. When he was two years old, his family moved to Sturgeon Bay, where he later farmed and engaged in the lumber business during his youth. In 1893, when this photo was taken, he went to Chicago and became a laborer for the U.S. Lighthouse Establishment, helping to construct the new Chicago Harbor Lighthouse.
