John Edward Hollenbeck (1861 – 1936)
	
John and Albert A. Hollenbeck were listed as living at the Klondike River in the 1901 census.((“1901 Census of Canada.” 2019 website: http://automatedgenealogy.com/census/SurnameList.jsp?surname=Hollenbeck)) The Hollenbeck family ran the roadhouse on the Mayo-Dawson trail, at the Klondike River, from about 1905 to 1929. John was also a prospector and staked the Travice claim on Keno Hill in March 1921.((Linda E.T. MacDonald and Lynette R. Bleiler, //Gold & Galena.// Mayo Historical Society, 1990: 388.)) 
In September 1921, John Hollenbeck hired forty men and cut about 4,000 cords of four-foot wood about seventy-five miles above the mouth of the Klondike. Most of the wood was taken out of the water at Bear Creek for the Canadian Klondike Mining (CKM) Company mine, and the remainder was used by the CKM electric light plant.((//The Whitehorse Star// (Whitehorse), 9 September 1921.)) 
Hollenbeck was later occupied as a farmer in Dawson and a hotel keeper at North Fork. His wife, Ellen, was born in Salt Lake, USA and she was listed in the government records as a housewife living at North Fork. They are buried in the Hillside Cemetery in Dawson.((Yukon Archives Genealogy Database Search Results. 2019 website: http://yukongenealogy.com/search?search=Hollenbeck))
