Book Title: Memoirs Of The Ohio Valley, Vol. 3

    The Henry Gildehaus Company, funeral directors and embalmers. The Henry
Gildehaus Company was established in 1883 by Henry Gildehaus. It was located at
1422-1424 Vine street, where it continued until 1907 when it was moved to 1511
Vine street. In 1910 at the death of Henry Gildehaus, the business was taken
over and operated by the estate. In April, 1912, Henry Gildehaus' sons formed a
corporation in company with several other men, and the new company bore the old
name. The company had a capital stock of some twenty-five thousand dollars and
the officers at this time were Gustav Gildehaus, president; C. W. Springmyer,
vice-president; Herbert Gildehaus, treasurer and C. O. Gildehaus, secretary. In
February, 1913, the business was re-organized and the officers became: Herbert
Gildehaus, president; C. W. Springinger, vice-president and C. O. Gildehaus,
secretary and treasurer. The business remained under this management until May
1, 1919 when the corporation was dissolved and Herbert H. and C. O. Gildehaus
became co-partners. The business now has its own motor equipment and chapel, and
has the only non-sectarian church in the city. Lately the business has grown so
extensively that it has been found necessary to seek larger quarters, so that on
September 1, 1921, the business will move to 1408-1410 Vine street.
