General Notes: Husband - Henry H. Heise
He availed himself of such advantages as the neighboring school afforded, and afterwards engaged in labor on the farm. In 1866 he became a pupil at the People's Business College at Reading, Pennsylvania, and in 1867 made an extended tour through Europe. In 1870 he embarked in the hardware business in Columbia, Lancaster County.
The firm of Heise & Kauffman, with which Mr. Heise was connected, was the patentee of Heise & Kauffman's "patent combined feed tobacco and heating steamer," and Mr. Heise was the patentee of H. H. Heise's latest improved "hydraulic ram." For both of these an extended demand was created. Beginning in the spring of 1883 Mr. Heise was sole owner of the extensive hardware business formerly conducted with his partner. He was, in politics, a Republican, but not an ardent politician. He was a director of the Pennsylvania Fire Insurance Company of Columbia and of the Commonwealth Fire Insurance Company, also of Columbia. The family was, in their religious belief, Presbyterians.
