Stuetzel, Frank, wholesale and retail dealer in wines and liquors, north
side Main street, one door west of National Bank. Mr. Stuetzel is a native
of Bavaria, Europe, from which country he came to America in 1871. After
spending two years in New York and Missouri, Mr. Stuetzel came to Wabasha,
where he was engaged in clerking for John Duke, until the spring of 1876,
when he left the county for the Black Hills. Returning to Wabasha the same
fall, he entered the grain house of Laurence and Kriek, and was in their
employ, purchasing grain, for three years. He then formed a partnership
with Mr. J. G. Laurence, for the purpose of carrying on a grocery
business, which was managed three years by Mr. Stuetzel, and then sold out
to L. H. Whitmore. The same season, spring of 1883, Mr. Stuetzel opened
his liquor house, where he carried a stock of about four thousand dollars'
worth. October 2, 1879, Mr. Stuetzel married Barbara, daughter of Phillip
and Phillippena Reck, born in this city July 20, 1856. They have two
children, Phillip, born October 20, 1880 and Phillippena, born September
18, 1882.
