HENRY DIEFFENBACHER.—In reviewing the careers of the men prominently concerned
in the business life of Imperial County, mention should be made of Henry
Dieffenbacher, who came to the Valley in November, 1914, and has been identified
with the meat business in Calipatria since October 13, 1917. He was born in
Eppingen, Baden, Germany, September 17, 1863, and received his education in his
native land. In 1880, he came to America and has been a citizen of the United
States since 1892. He has followed the butcher business in various parts of the
country for many years. In 1882 he came to California, and in 1888 he engaged
first in business for himself in Benicia, after working at his trade in that
city for nearly three years. He engaged in business at Aroyo Grande, California,
where he remained four years. Mr. Dieffenbacher then removed to Arizona and
remained one year. Coming to Imperial County, he took over ten acres of land and
erected a slaughter house on the place at Calipatria. Here he remained for a
time and then engaged in business in Mexicali for eighteen months. Returning to
Calipatria he opened his present store and has met with gratifying success.
