General Notes: Husband - Conrad Nicklas


His brothers cultivated the home farm of ninety acres, for their father, but he turned his attention to merchandising. He first bought an interest in the business of John Kaltenbach and later became sole owner and until his fatal illness continued to successfully conduct a general mercantile business at Connoquenessing, Butler County, Pennsylvania. He was an excellent business man, one of foresight and judgment and became largely interested in oil production. He left his family amply provided for and during his whole life had been a good citizen, liberally supporting public measures and giving to the church and the cause of education.
He and his wife were members of the English Lutheran Church for many years and he was a member of its board of trustees. In his political views he was a Democrat, but the only office he was ever willing to accept was that of school director.
