An interesting biographical sketch of Lewis appears in the Biographical History of Northern Michigan:27

LEWIS T. KLINE.

One of the important industries of Alpena, Michigan, is that conducted by the subject of this sketch, who is engaged in the manufacture of Kline’s excelsior and wood turning machinery, the former of which is in use in all the wood-producing counties of the state and indeed the country. Mr. Kline is a native of the Wolverine state, having been born at Flint, Michigan, on January 4, 1857, and is the son of Joseph Kline, who came to Flint in 1837, at the age of fourteen years. The subject’s great-grandfather came to America from Frankfort-on-the-Rhine, Germany, while his son, the subject’s grandfather, was one of the pioneer settlers of Michigan. The subject himself saw the first train run over the Pere Marquette Railroad. The subject received a fair education in the public schools and upon attaining his majority started out on his own account. In 1879 he came to Alpena and was first employed by C. B. Warren and later engineer for the Minor Lumber Company. In 1883 he obtained a patent for a log roller and in 1887 a patent for a log roller and log deck apparatus, which have come into extensive use in the United States and Canada and other parts of the world. He later obtained patents on a steam feed valve, an automatic lathe and his excelsior machinery, all of them being marvels of ingenuity and greatly simplifying and cheapening the cost of production. The factory for the manufacture of these articles was at first a modest affair, but has rapidly grown in response to the demand for the product, until it ranks with the leading enterprises of this city. Mr. Kline does not allow his attention to be diverted from his business interests and is rapidly acquiring a reputation throughout the trade for the value of his productions and high quality of their manufacture.

Mr. Kline has been twice married. His first wife was Miss Gazlay, of Flint, Michigan, by which union were born two sons, Arthur L., of Detroit, and Herman J., who graduated from the Alpena high school and is now taking a course in Mechanical engineering at the State University, at Ann Arbor. Mr. Kline’s second union was with Miss Elizabeth Mckinnon, of Alpena, and to them have been born four children, DeEtte, Joseph and George, twins, and Flora. Mr. Kline is a gentleman who in all circumstances in which he has been placed has borne himself with that spirit which brings to a man the respect and esteem of the entire community. He has in all respects been the architect of his own fortunes and has builded wisely and well.
