DAVID ROSENHEIM, one of the pioneer clothing men of Joliet, has, by a thorough 
understanding of his business, built up an extensive and lucrative trade, 
having among his friends and patrons the leading men of the city. He is still 
comparatively a young man, approaching the forty-third year of his age, having 
been born December 11, 1847. His native place was in the kingdom of 
Wurtemburg, and his parents were Benedict and Babette (Melzgar) Rosenheim, who 
were likewise of German birth and ancestry, and who spent their entire life on 
their native soil. Our subject, arrived in Joliet in the spring of 1863, 
having made the passage on the steamship "China." He engaged first as a clerk 
with his brother, and then became proprietor of the business. By steady 
application thereto and courteous treatment of his customers, he has attained 
to a good position socially as well as in a business way, and like most of 
those of his nationality who have sought their fortunes on the soil of 
America, he is now comparatively independent. Mr. Rosenheim was joined in 
wedlock with Miss Augusta Lindauer at the bride's home in Joliet, June 18, 
1878. This lady was born in the same town in Germany as her husband, and was 
his playmate during their school days. Her father, Julius Lindauer and his 
wife, were of German birth and parentage. Mr. and Mrs. Rosenheim are the 
parents of four bright children—Bert, Julian, Myra and Sidney. The little 
family occupies a snug home in the city where they enjoy all of the comforts 
and many of the luxuries of life.
