JOHN P. PAGE is the genial and popular proprietor of the Page House of Dubuque. He was born in the village of Sure, Germany, on the 26th of July, 1844, and is a son of Francis and Anna May (Maljet) Page, He was reared and educated in his native land, and there remained until twenty-six years of age, and in 1870 with the family crossed the briny deep to the New World, landing in New York City. They came at once to Dubuque, where the parents made a permanent location, here spending their remaining days. Mr. Page of this sketch worked at various occupations whereby he might earn an honest living until 1873, when he entered the Catholic printing office, where he was employed for three years. This proved to him a valuable school.

In May 2, 1877, Mr. Page was united in marriage with Miss Theresa Eizmann, of Dubuque, and to have been born eight children, two sons and six daughters. For a time our subject engaged in carrying on a restaurant and saloon, but in 1883 he built the Page Hotel, which is a four-story brick structure, furnished throughout in the latest style. It is supplied with the latest improvements in the way of plumbing, the house is heated with steam and lighted with both gas and electric lights, the rooms are commodious and airy and there is a large, light dining room. The table is always supplied with the delicacies of the season, and is kept up in first-class style. The hotel is located at the corner of Fourth and White Streets and receives a liberal patronage. The owner al ways tries to make his guests feel at case, looks well after their comforts, and among those who give him their patronage he has made many warm friends and agreeable acquaintances, who esteem him highly. In his political views he is a Democrat and stanchly advocates the principles of that party. He is now serving his second term as Alderman from the Second Ward, and is an efficient and capable officer. He and his family are members of St. Mary's Catholic Church. In connection with his other property Mr. Page owns a farm in Dubuque County, which is under a high state of cultivation and adds materially to his income. He began life without means, save a determination to succeed, but has made the most of his opportunities and privileges through life and is now the possessor of a comfortable competence as the result of his well directed efforts.
