Affeld, Louis F., (page 1110), livery, sale and feed stables, corner Second 
and Bailly streets. Business established by Louis F. Affeld in 1882 in 
connection with the Green Bay House, which his father (Godfred Affeld) 
opened in 1869, and which has been under Louis F. Affeld's management 
since 1877. The livery stock consists of thirteen head of horses, ten 
carriages and buggies, and there is a stable force of four hands. The 
stock is quite new, maintained in good condition, and being within one 
block of the Commercial Hotel, is in a good location for business. The 
barn, built in 1882, is 32 x 60 feet, with carriage house, 24 x 32 feet, 
attached. Louis F. Affeld is the son of Godfred and Dorothea Affeld, 
natives of Bavaria, who came to America in 1853, and three years later to 
Minnesota, settling near Crystal Lake, where Louis was born Jun 12, 1859. 
The family came to this county in May, 1862, residing for a time in Read's 
Landing, and settled in this city one year later. Mr. Godfred Affeld 
pursued his trade as a wagonmaker until 1869, when he opened the Green Bay 
House. There are six children, only two of whom are now living at home, 
Louis F. and his sister Hulda, who was born March 4, 1855.
