The Roten family moved from New Salem to Rusk in 1887. Mr. Roten helped build their first home at sixteen and later constructed many houses after a 1911 fire destroyed key downtown buildings. He ran the town’s first building material business, opening in 1926, while also starting as a carpenter’s assistant and later focusing on commerce.
