General Notes: Husband - Louis Stein
When he was about thirteen years of age his father was appointed a professor at the Medical University of Bonn, Germany, and removed with his family to that place, where he died about 1879, aged 100 years. His son was educated at the University of Bonn, immigrated to New York City in 1832, and was employed in a large German importing house for five years. In 1837 he located at Wapakoneta, Ohio, and engaged in general merchandising in partnership with Bernard Roessing, which they conducted until the spring of 1840. They then removed to Butler, Pennsylvania, and embarked in the same business under the firm name of Roessing & Stein, which existed until 1871, when Mr. Stein purchased his partner's interest and carried on the grocery, queensware and dry goods business until February, 1882. His son William A. was then admitted to a partnership, and the firm became L. Stein & Son, and continued the dry goods business exclusively. The first store of Roessing & Stein was in a part of the Vogeley Hotel building, whence they removed to the corner of Main and Mifflin streets, and finally erected their own building, later occupied by their successor. In 1885 Mr. Stein retired from active business, and continued to enjoy the fruits of his frugality and industry until his death. He was always an ardent Democrat, but his very active business life prevented him from devoting much attention to public affairs, with the exception of serving on the school board. Mr. Stein was a member of the German Lutheran church, of Butler, and a liberal supporter of that society.
