RAYMOND J. CURRY - Vol. II, pg 461
Raymond J. Curry, a member of one of the pioneer families of Minneapolis, is
numbered among the younger representatives of the bar of this city and has
already firmly established himself in public regard as an able advocate and safe
counselor. He is one of Minneapolis' native sons, and was born September 16,
1892, of the marriage of William J. and Anna E. (Voight) Curry, the former a
native of Minnesota and the latter of Wisconsin. They became early settlers of
Minneapolis, where the father followed the trade of a carpenter, and he also
engaged in contracting, contributing in substantial measure to the upbuilding
and improvement of the city.
Following the completion of his high school course Raymond J. Curry taught
district school several years in Montana. He then returned, took a business
course and attended the night school of the Northwestern College of Law of
Minneapolis, from which he won his LL. B. degree in 1918, and in the same year
he was admitted to the bar. He enlisted for service in the World war, and was
sent to the Great Lakes Naval Training Station, near Chicago, Illinois, where he
was stationed for ten months, or until the signing of the armistice. He received
his discharge in April, 1919, at which time he held the rank of ensign, and is
now a member of the Naval Reserve. Returning to Minneapolis, he assumed his
professional activities and is now engaged in the general practice of law,
maintaining a suite of offices in the Plymouth building. He has much natural
ability but is withal a hard student and is never content until he has mastered
every detail of a case. He has won a liberal clientele for one of his years and
his business in the courts is constantly increasing in volume and importance.
On the 8th of July, 1918, Mr. Curry was united in marriage to Miss Florence M.
Myre of Minneapolis, and they have a daughter, Caroline Ann. Mr. Curry is an
enter­prising and progressive young man whose genuine personal worth has gained
for him the unqualified esteem of a large circle of friends, and industry and
ability are bring­ing him rapidly to the front in his profession.
