Cudahy Family Papers, The Huntington Library, San Marino, California. Provenance Purchased from C. Apfelbaum, November 8, 1988. Biographical Note Edna Cudahy (1877-1949) was born Edna Margaret Cowin on October 31, 1877 in Omaha, Nebraska. Her father was a prominent Omaha lawyer and politician who would later go on to be a signatory to the 1914 manifesto of the Nebraska Men’s Association Opposed to Woman Suffrage. She married John P. “Jack” Cudahy, son of wealthy Chicago meat packer Michael Cudahy. They had four children, Edna Catherine (born approximately 1900), Marie (born approximately 1902), Anne Elizabeth (born approximately 1904), and Michael (1908–1947). Edna and Jack began married life in Kansas City, Mo., where Jack managed his father’s meat packing plant. In 1910, Jack attacked Jere Lillis, President of the Western Exchange Bank, over suspicion of an affair between Lillis and Edna. Following the attack, Edna and Jack divorced, and custody of their children was entrusted to Jack’s parents. In 1912, the couple reconciled and remarried, and settled in Pasadena, Calif. with their children. Jack joined the Army during World War I, served at Camp Lewis in Tacoma, Washington, but secured a medical discharge following a nervous breakdown in 1918. After Jack returned from the Army and regained his health, the family moved from Pasadena to a mansion in Hollywood, where, in 1921, Jack committed suicide. Throughout their married life, Edna maintained connections to the theater society of the United States, Canada, and Britain. Edna died in 1949. Scope and Content Collection consists of the papers of John P. “Jack” and Edna Cudahy family. Includes correspondence and ephemera. The correspondence contains 228 letters, many written to Edna Cudahy. These are arranged alphabetically by author. These letters contain information relating to theater and society life in the early twentieth century, Michael Cudahy’s life at Belmont School for Boys, Jack’s experience as an officer at Camp Lewis, Wash. during World War I, and some correspondence related to Jack’s business interests and trust funds. A letter from Edna Cudahy Browne to John, Box 1 (11), discusses the young woman’s decision to become a nun, though she married Percy Browne the following year. There are also 91 pieces of ephemera, including calling cards, report cards, greeting cards, and some receipts for goods and services. The ephemera is organized alphabetically by type.

A few words of description will inform the reader of what has been placed below the surface of the site to support the enormous weight of the building when that is completed. From the records in the possession of Alderman Francis W. Taylor, Chairman of the City Hall building Committee, it appears that the wrecking of the old City Hall was commenced on August 11, 1908, and that work on the new foundations was begun on January 4, 1909.

  • Meat Industry Hall of Fame Book 8-8-08
    WISCONSIN MEAT INDUSTRY HALL OF FAME 1993 Patrick Cudahy and Michael F. Cudahy 9 Patrick Cudahy and Michael F. Cudahy Patrick Cudahy was born March 17, 1849 and died July 25, 1919. Because of the great Irish famine, his family moved to Milwaukee three months after he was born. At age 13, he began working as a "carrying boy" for packer Edward Rodis. At age 25, he became superintendent of Plankinton and Armour, Milwaukee's largest packer, and in 1888 Patrick and John Cudahy (Patrick's brother) took over the business. John was always a silent partner, but the company held the name "Cudahy Brothers" until 1957. In the 1870's, Patrick was instrumental in moving the industry from barreled pork to a cured meat business. For many years the company's main business was supplying European markets with cured pork, but in the 1920's the business was forced to change because Britain imposed tariffs on American products, giving preference to products imported from Commonwealth countries. Cudahy Brothers employed between 1,000 and 1,500 workers at this time, and shifted their production to the domestic scene, specializing in semi-perishable canned hams (one of the first U.S. packers to produce this product), sliced dried beef, Italian-style sausage and sliced bacon. In the 1880's, Patrick purchased 700 acres of land in what is now Cudahy, Wisconsin, and in 1889, a new plant was built on the site. The panic of 1893, soon after, threatened the company, but the business survived four years of economic struggle, and emerged with a strong foothold in domestic and export trade.
