EUGENE ANDERSON, a civil engineer and surveyor of Dubuque, was born in the city, which is still Ills home, on the 18th of October. 1857, and is a worthy representative of one of the pioneer families of this locality. His father, Alexander Anderson, is a native of Erie County, Pa., and in 1842 emigrated westward, taking up his residence in Dubuque, where for some time he engaged in surveying. Later he embarked in the lumber business, which he carried on for some years, but is now living a retired life, resting in the enjoyment of the fruits of his former toil. He has reached the age of seventy-three. He took quite an active part in the up building of the city in the early days, and did all in his power to promote its leading enterprises. In 1855 he drafted a map of the mineral lots of Dubuque, which is still used as authority on that question. In politics he is a supporter of the men and measures of the Republican Party. His wife, who bore the maiden name of Sarah Jane Scott, was a native of Baltimore, Md., and a daughter of Matthew Scott.

No event of special importance occurred during the childhood and youth of Eugene Anderson. He lived quietly at home with his parents until after he had completed his education in the public schools of Dubuque, when he went to Golden, Colo., and entered the State School of Mines at that place. There he pursued a thorough course of study and spent two years in the Civil Engineering Department. After leaving college he was employed in the west as a civil engineer for twelve years, when, in 189O, he returned to Dubuque and opened an office. He is now doing a large business as a surveyor and civil engineer, being an expert in both lines of work while in the west he also did considerable prospecting in Colorado, Idaho and Washington

In the spring of 1891, Mr. Anderson was married to Miss Carrie Parker, of Dubuque, daughter of Capt., J. W. Parker, who was a native of Ohio and a pioneer settler of this city, with the growth and development of which he was actively identified during earlier years. He was interested for many years in steam boating on the Mississippi and took an active part in all that pertained to the growth and up building of this locality. He was a genial and affable gentleman, possessing a kindly and generous disposition and was well known for the many acts of charity and benevolence, which be performed. In politics he was a stanch Republican but never sought office for himself. He was instrumental in establishing the first water works in Dubuque, and also aided in the establishment of the beautiful parks of the city. He married Eliza McQuigg, a native of New York, and a well-preserved lady of seventy-seven years, who is still living in Dubuque.

Mr. and Mrs. Anderson now reside at No. 361 Julien Avenue. They hold a high position in social circles and have many friends in this community. In politics Mr. Anderson is a Republican, he is a member of Oriental Lodge No. 210, K. P., of which he is Past Chancellor.
