In 1890, Lehr Construction Company was formed by our founding father, J.W. Lehr who served as president of the corporation until his death in 1928. It was during this time, in the early 20th century, that magnificent homes and the industrial base for St. Joseph's next fifty years began. In 1928, Arthur L. Lehr served as president of the corporation until his death in 1944.
He directed the company through the end of the Great Depression, World War II and a huge industrial boom, including packing plants, grain mills, manufacturing, and St. Joseph's Goetz Brewery. J. Wesley Lehr joined the firm in 1935 and served as president from 1944 until his retirement in 1975. The 50's, 60's, and 70's welcomed more expansion of local companies, hospitals, and new manufacturing.
