BiographyBio contained in "Washington, West of the Cascades, Vol III, pp. 359-360; S.J. Clarke Publishing Co., 1917, Chicago, Seattle, Tacoma:
F. R. Klumb was but a year old when the parents removed to Hampton, Nebraska, where he became a public school pupil passing through consecutive grades to the high school, from which he was graduated when 16 years of age. He afterward taught school in Hamilton County, Nebraska, for two years and then entered the Rohrbaugh Brothers Business College, in which he continued his studies until Feb 1893. At that date he went to Chicago and entered the restaurant business, in which he continued until the 1st of June of the same year, when he was appointed a cadet to the U.S. Military Academy at West Point from Hamilton County by the Congressman Heiner. He afterward returned to Chicago for four months and then went to Aurora, Nebraska, where he filled the office of deputy county clerk for 2 years, entering in the fall of 1895. At that date he took up the occupation of farming in Hamilton County, where he remained for 2 years , and in the fall of 1897 he entered the employ of the Burlington & Missouri Railroad Company as brakeman, running out of Lincoln, Nebraska until Feb 1898. In the spring of that year he made his way to the Klondike, going to Dawson City, where he engaged in mining for 6 years. He afterward spent 4 years in mining at Fairbanks, where he continued until 1908, when he was married and took a wedding trip of 16000 miles, touring the country for seven months. On the expiration of that period he returned to Fairbanks, where he was identified with mining interests until Sep 1911. He then went to Lynden, WA and after a brief period removed to Olympia, where he purchased the Capital City Creamery, which he has since conducted, winning for himself a place among the substantial businessmen there.
It was on the 8th of Sep 1907 that Mr. Klumb married Miss Kathryn Olson, a native of Sweden. Their married was celebrated in Fairbanks, Alaska, and to them have been born 5 children: Kermit, Ruth, Mararet, and Harold and Helen, twins. Mr. Klumb is a member of the Elks Lodge and the Woodmen of the World and his religious faith is that of the Presbyterian church. He belongs to the Chamber of Commerce and he gives his political support to the Republican Party. He is interested in all those forces which make for good citizenship and at the same time he gives untiring attention and effort to the upbuilding of his business, being prompted by a valuable ambition toward the attainment of legitimate success.

Rough notes of Winnifred Olsen suggest either Fred or Kathryn died in Florida. Also, besides Capital City Creamery, he was associated with Crane Cafe and Capitol Savings and Loan.

From Minnie's oral history:

Also went to Chicago World's Fair, 1892

Dissatisfied with creamery business in Lynden, moved to Olympia, maybe 1912.

3 out of 5 of his children were still living in 1986, two boys and a girl.

Ray working at a restaurant as a cook during the Chicago World's Fair.
