  C. H. ALBES. Proprietor Hotel Bismarck, Decatur, son of Henry and Mary E.
(Deppe) Albes, was born in Hanover, Germany, October 13, l835; came to the
United States in 1854, and settled in Cincinnati, Ohio, where he established a
wholesale grocery and provision business, and remained until 1864. He then moved
to Nashville, Tenn., and was connected with a newspaper for a few years. In
1870, he came to Decatur, and was agent of the Southern Express Company three
years. He began keeping hotel on a small scale, and being fortunate in location,
has been successful in securing a patronage, heretofore unknown to Decatur, and
largely in excess of his now greatly increased capacity. Mr. Albes was married
February 27, 1867, to Miss Fredrica Lacroix, of Nashville, Tenn., and three
children have been born to their union, of whom Charles Edward is now a member
of the Senior Class in Vanderbilt University (December, 1887).

  Mr. Albes'grand father. Conrad D. Albes, served eighteen years in the German
Army, and fought under Wellington at the battle of Waterloo.

  C. H. Albes is a member of the A. O. U. W., and has served in the Council of
Decatur several years.
