Individual Notes
• As young men, he and his brother William remained in Saginaw while the rest of their family spent several years in Missouri and Mississippi. Edward lived in the back of his father’s tobacco store.1921, p 7
• By 1891 they had a drug and cigar business, and lived upstairs over the store. She became a licensed pharmacist, while he was the tobacconist. 1896 found them in Bridgeport, again with a drugstore, but also publishing a small paper for advertising.
Ten years later, at the urging of a Frankenmuth resident, they moved there and started the Frankenmuth News. Although it was an English-language paper in a German-speaking community, it prospered and lasted many years. Eventually it was taken over by their son William R., and finally by one of his employees, closing well after World War II.1921, p 7
