Biographical Sketch of Henry Honeck, Gasconade County, Missouri >From "History of Franklin, Jefferson, Washington, Crawford and Gasconade Counties", Biographical Appendix, Goodspeed Publishing Company, 1888. ********************************************************************** Henry Honeck, an extensive manufacturer of spring wagons, buggies, farm wagons, plows, etc., and proprietor of a general blacksmithing and wood work establishment, was born in Germany in 1833, and immi- grated to America in 1852, locating first at Rochester, N. Y., where he remained three years. Subsequently he worked for five years in Chicago, and then, in 1860, came to Hermann, where he began working at his trade. From that time to the present he has devoted himself closely to his present calling with deserved success, though the growth of his business has been gradual, as it was started on a small basis. He carries on a blacksmith and wood workshop, besides a paint- ing department, and has a good storeroom where work turned out com- plete is kept on hand. In 1855 Mr. Honeck was married to Miss Mary Weber, who was born in Germany, and to this union ten children have been born, only one of whom is deceased. ==================================================================== USGENWEB NOTICE: In keeping with our policy of providing free information on the Internet, data may be used by non-commercial entities, as long as this message remains on all copied material.
