General Notes: Husband - Henry Meyer


He was born and reared in Essen, Germany, and was for many years engaged as a shoe merchant there. In 1880 he brought his family to the United States, locating for one year at Noblestown, Allegheny County, Pennsylvania. He then removed to Carnegie, where he resided 13 years, and then went to New Kensington, where he lived until 1906. He then came to Donora and in partnership with his son Frank H. purchased from F. E. Garwood, the Hotel Donora, which he operated for two years. Selling his interest to his son, he then returned to New Kensington, where he then resided, spending his time in looking after his real estate interests.
