SUDERMAN, CHARLES THEODORE
Charles Theodore Suderman, the senior member of Suderman & Dolson, was born in Helsingborg, Sweden, October 13. 1859. A man of splendid business capacity and energy, he has won, at the age of fifty, an honored place in business and civic life. He is a self-made man, and the successive promotions in his career have been gained by a persistent industry and seasoned business judgment.
He received a limited education in the Swedish schools and at the age of fifteen began life in earnest. His father, Nelson Peter Suderman, was a seafaring man, who died in Sweden in 1907 at the age of eighty four, and his mother, Johanna Nelson, still lives in the old country. When he left school the boy, Charles Theodore, went to sea, and on reaching London shipped on a vessel of which his uncle was captain. He sailed the high seas five years. His voyages twice brought him to the port of Galveston, and on his second trip, while second mate of the old brig Rocky Glenn (belonging to John S. Emery of Boston), he was taken ill and went to the hospital in Galveston. On recovering he determined to remain on shore. He began as a longshoreman for Charles Clarke; was then at work loading and storing cotton aboard ships. Is foreman of the stevedore firm of Dolson & Selson for four years, he made a permanent start in the business in which he is still engaged. When the original firm retired Mr. Suerman and the son of Mr. Dolson continued the business as general stevedores and railroad contractors. The extent of their operations is described elsewhere.
Mr. Suderman is a member of the Galveston Business League. Also a member of Harmony Lodge No.6, A. F. & A. M., San Felipe de Austin Chapter No. 1, R. A. M., San Felipe de Austin Commandery No. 1, K. T., Galveston Lodge No. 3, I. O. O. F., the Temple of Honor, and the Screwmen's Benevolent Association.
Mr. Suderman married, October 15, 1880, Miss Katherine Dolson, daughter of Benjamin Dolson. Their four children are: Charles Walter, Adolph Daniels, Collis Peter, and El Mar.
SUDERMAN & DOLSON is one of the solid, substantial firms, not only of Galveston, but of the entire South. In their particular line of stevedores they are recognized as occupying a high place in the business annals of Galveston and of being the largest operators in that business on the entire Gulf of Mexico.
Both of them are practical men in the business, having had a large personal experience in its every department. The firm is the successor of the old firm of Dolson & Nelson, from whom they purchased the business in 1895. The old firm did a large business, but from the date of purchase, both partners being enterprising as well as capable businessmen, branched out, until today the business of the house includes, besides stevedore work, that of general railroad contracting, in which an enormous amount of work has been done, cattle business, tow boat and lightering work, dredging and the work of forwarding agents.
As one incident to show the magnitude of their operations, it might be mentioned that in the department given over to cattle business they shipped to Cuba over twenty-two thousand head of cattle in one year. The firm owns and operates two tug boats and their lightering and dredging business is also carried on in an extensive way.
Since branching out into the various departments of their business, it of necessity compelled the engaging of a very large amount of labor and some idea of the magnitude of their undertakings may be gained from the fact that from one thousand to two thousand men are daily engaged in putting through the plans and work formulated by the firm. The number of employees vary, of course, according to the seasons, but at no time have they less than one thousand men on their payroll and during the busy season, this will run up to two thousand and over. Their payroll will run from $8,000 to $30,000 per week and the disbursement of this large amount of money means a most welcome addition to the coffers of the various merchants in Galveston and vicinity, where the bulk of the money is principally expended.
In their business as forwarding agents, which is one of the newer enterprises started by the firm, they include a very large number of clients over Texas, and, in fact, the entire West. Some of the heaviest shippers in the United States, recognizing the very stable character of the firm, have become their clients.
Even with the enormous amount of detail work necessarily attendant upon the various departments, Messrs. Suderman & Dolson have so systematized the entire operations that the business runs like clockwork and their clients are never disappointed by any failure to carry out their contracts on time and to the letter of their specifications.
The firm is a credit to Galveston, and, in fact, to the entire South. Only the most open and above-board methods are used in their various transactions, the reputation for strict business integrity enjoyed by the firm being one of its most valuable assets.
