George G. Schulte, of the B. Schulte & Son cut stone contracting firm, was born in Dubuque, April 5, 1871, and is a son of Bernard and Anna Clara (Becker), Schulte. He received his education in the Parochial School and colleges and immediately thereafter learned the contracting business and in 1898 was admitted to the B. Schulte & Son stone contracting firm.
On October 18, 1898, Mr. George G. Schulte was united in marriage with Miss Mary T. Heles, daughter of John and Pauline Heles, and to this union the following children have been born: George N., Orestes, J. P. and Marie H.
The family are of Roman Catholic faith and affiliate with the St. Mary's church.
In 1902, after the death of B. Schulte, John J. and George G. Schulte assumed the interest of B. Schulte and have ever since been thus connected in conducting a constantly increasing business.

Among the most important are: The Pike County Court House at Pittsfield, Illinois; the Manchester Court House of Delaware County, Iowa; the Decorah Court House of Winneshiek County, Iowa; the United States Postal Savings Bank Building of Decorah, Winneshiek County, Iowa, now being constructed; the Mount Clemens (Michigan) Post Office; the First National Bank of Dubuque, Iowa; the First National Bank of Riceville, Iowa; the Bank of New Glarus, Wisconsin; the First National Bank of Independence, Iowa; the Conservatory of Music, St. Josephs; Dubuque Infirmary, Dubuque, Iowa; Chapel at Mount Olivet; Chapel of Mount Calvary; F.
