General Notes: Husband - Daniel Grimm

---

He was born in Rhenish Bavaria (the Palatinate), on the French border, and his early training and education were acquired in his native land, where he remained until twelve years old, crossing the ocean in 1850 in order to avail himself of the superior advantages open to youth in America. On landing he proceeded at once to Meadville, Crawford County, Pennsylvania, and was soon at work as clerk in a grocery store. His humble beginning in no wise discouraged him. He went ahead steadily, assuming new responsibilities as he gained experience and became fitted for them, and after several years in his original location came to Franklin in 1861, to engage in merchandising on his own account. He continued in that line successfully for several years, until the developing oil business attracted him from it, and in 1869 he entered the new field as a producer. Oil production was his main business for almost forty years, and his most valuable interests were in the Franklin Heavy Oil, the finest grade of oil known. Incidentally he also acquired some very desirable gas holdings, being a director of the Pennsylvania Gas Company. The promotion of other business enterprises conducive to improving the general prosperity and commercial facilities of his adopted city always had his cooperation. Thus he became one of the first stockholders of the Exchange Bank of Franklin, originally established in January, 1871, and which had an uninterrupted career of prosperity. It was incorporated June 20, 1888, under the State law, with a capital of one hundred thousand dollars. Among the first officers were John L. Mitchell, president, and P. McGough, cashier, and Mr. Grimm was made a director shortly after the organization. Mr. Grimm became president Jan. 6, 1912. He also formed a number of social and fraternal connections and enjoyed their privileges to the full, having the companionable qualities and sociable disposition which make such associations delightful. He was a member of the Washington Club and the Franklin Club, and a Knight Templar Mason, affiliating with Myrtle Lodge No. 316, F. & A. M.; Venango Chapter No. 211, R. A. M.; Keystone Council No. 42, R. & S. M.; and Franklin Commandery No. 44, K. T. He was also well known in political circles as a Democrat of established convictions, and was quite active in the party.
