Profile of first archbishop of Milwaukee

Maybe I missed this but Patheos has a Catholic historical blog by Pat McNamara. 

Katzer, Frederick Xavier, third Roman Catholic Bishop of the Diocese of Green Bay and first Archbishop of Milwaukee, was born at Ebensee, Austria, Feb. 7, 1844, son of Charles and Barbara (Reinhartsgruber) Katzer. After attending school at Gruündin, Austria, to which place his parents had removed, he began his classical studies in 1857 at the Jesuit College, Linz, Austria. He was graduated there in 1864, and coming to America in May of the same year, studied theology at the Seminary of St. Francis de Sales, near Milwaukee, Wis., where he completed his studies and was ordained a priest, Dec. 21, 1866.
