In 1929 Swedish immigrant John Halquist purchased a 2-acre curbing quarry just outside of Sussex Wisconsin. With help from his son, Albin “Stoney” Halquist, he grew the small quarry into what is now one of the largest stone companies in Wisconsin by the end of World War II. Halquist soon realized that Lannon Stone, quarried in the area since the 1850s, had a good reputation for producing high quality lime, curbing, paving, foundation and building stone. This reputation allowed the company to enjoy the postwar building boom, and Lannon Stone became the predominately used material for houses and churches in Milwaukee, Chicago and the northern Midwest. Over the years Halquist Stone became the innovators in the industry with the first to use diamond saws, first to locally market stone from around the country and the first producer to recycle its waste into agricultural lime and crushed stone, which laid the foundation for what is now a successful aggregate business.Halquist Stone Company Address
