HISTORY OF ST. CHARLES COUNTY.
close attention to business and good management he had steadily progressed on the career of success until finally, removing to Wentz- ville, he established a good store and had a large and increasing trade, but, patiently and faithfully as he had worked to establish himself in business life, when Ft. Sumpter was fired upon his loyalty and pa- triotism overshadowed every consideration of self-interest, and he unhesitatingly threw himself into the conflict for the preservation of the Union. He turned his key on his store and left it to care for itself and went to work at once recruiting for the service of the Government, whose benign laws and institutions he knew so well how to appreciate, and which should be dearer than life to every patriotic man. He organized the company of independents of which he was elected captain, and after the expiration of that term of service he became captain of Co. I, of the Eighth Missouri infantry. When his second term expired he again entered the army, as did his whole company, which became a part of the Forty-ninth Missouri. Capt. Dierker led his company with courage and ability until the close of the war, and saw much hard and dangerous service in Missouri and in the far-off sun-scorched land of cinnamon seed and sandy bottom. He was in numerous engagements in this State, and had the pleasure of swinging around the circle after Price, on the latter's last raid. He was also in the battles of Montgomery, Ala., and Augusta, Ga. After the war he returned home and found that although the " Rebs." had not gotten away with the Union, they had pretty effectually cleaned out his stock of goods, and that he had to begin again at the bottom of the ladder, so to speak. While in the army he was fre- quently offered promotion, but having promised his men that he would stay with them as their captain when they enlisted, he faithfully kept his word and uniformally declined all proffered advancement in the command. After his return he started a hotel, which he kept for about two years, and then engaged in the livery business, which he has ever since followed. He has been very successful. He has a large and handsome livery building, well supplied with good horses, vehicles of all kinds, etc. He also has three busses that he runs in connection with his stable from the depot on the arrival of each of the six daily trains. In the undertaker's line he has two fine hearses, so handsome and pleasant to ride in that one almost longs for the " sweet by and by " in order to enjoy the luxury for the final sepulchral tour which all must sooner or later take. His purchases were brought from Cincin- nati, and cost him over $2,000, Certainly when one can ride in such a conveyance as these for the small sum of $10, no one need to be carted off in a lumber wagon on his last earthly ride. Capt. Dierker has held the office of city councilman for several terms, and was elected to the place as long as he would accept it. In 1870 he was elected sheriff and collector, and two years later was re-elected to the same office. His majority was highly complimentary to his personal popu- larity and standing as a citizen. He received 672 votes more than his opponent at the first election and 784 more at his second election.' Capt. Dierker is Hanoverian by nativity, born December 23, 1826,

HISTORY OF ST. CHARLES COUNTY.
and came to this country with his parents at the age of 14, in 1840. His father, Valentine D. Dierker, died in this county in 1859, and his mother, whose maiden name was Clare E. Koenig, died here in 1865, within two days of the same age of her husband. In 1850 Capt. Dierker was married to Miss Caroline A. Auping, a daughter of Casper H. Auping, formerly of Hannibal. They have nine chil- dren : Lizzie A., wife of Henry Koenig; Louisa William Koenig ; Victor D., a partner with his father ; Henrietta, a young lady who is still at home ; Ernst, Henry, Frank H., Matah and Ada A. Two others died at tender ages. Mrs. D. is a member of the St. Paul Protestant Church.
ANTOINE A. DORLAQUE
(Farmer, Stock-raiser and Stock-dealer, Post-office, St. Charles).
Mr. Dorlaque is a descendant of one of the early families in the settlement of what was formerly the Upper Louisiana country. The family, as its name indicates, is of French origin, and came here among the early French settlers of the country, and before ever the British or American flag was unfurled to the wind over the Missouri river country. His father was Francois X. Dorlaque, who was born and reared in this county, and was a son of Auguste Dorlaque, who came here from St. Genevieve, St. Genevieve county. Mr. Dorlaque's mother was a Miss Emilie Tabeau before her marriage, a daughter of Antoine and Devena (Janease ) Tabeau, early French settlers of St. Charles county. Mr. Dorlaque's father was a farmer by occupation and resided here until his death. He died June 16, 1874. The mother died August 16, of the same year. Antoine A. was the second in their family of 11 children, only five of whom are living and none of whom, except the subject of this sketch and one sister, the wife of Charles Hug, reside in this county. His father was in well- to-do circumstances and Antoine had good school advantages. He was educated at Lucas Grove school and at the St. Charles College. After quitting college he engaged in farming, and in a short time in buying and shipping live stock. He has been in these lines of business ever since and has been very successful. He is one of the leading stock men of the county, as well as one of its substantial property- holders. His home farm is a neat, comfortable homestead, and he also has a place of over 300 acres on an island, in the Mississippi river, opposite the St. Charles county shore. Mr. Dorlaque was married to Miss Edna Ford, a daughter of Gartrell and Susan ( Manfield ) Ford, formerly of Caldwell county, Ky., on the 26th of June, 1867. They have 10 children : Francois X., Edward, who died in boyhood ; Emilie, Julius F., Mary A., Gartrell, Edna, Ellie, Sophie, Antonette. Mr. and Mrs. D. and family are members of the Catholic Church.
HON. ALBERT H. EDWARDS
(Attorney at Law and State Senator, St. Charles).
State Senator Edwards, though reared in St. Charles county, is a native of the Old Dominion, and came of an honored Revolutionary
377
HISTORY OF ST. CHARLES COUNTY.
family. His grandfather, Ambrose Edwards, served with credit in the War for Independence under Washington, but the family had settled in Virginia long prior to that time. The founder of the family came to this country in the early days of the Colonies, and was from Wales.
State Senator Edwards' father was Henry Edwards, born and reared in Virginia, and who came to St. Charles county after his mar- riage, during the latter part of the " thirties." His wife's maiden name was Sarah Dabney Waller, reared in Hanover county, Va., and of the old and well known Virginia family of that name. The Wallers came to Virginia from London, England, in an early day. Her mother was a Miss Dabney, and was of French Huguenot descent.
Hon. A. H. Edwards was born in Henry county, Va., September 13, 1836, and was therefore yet in infancy when the family removed to St. Charles county, Mo. His father died here in 1844, and he, with the other children of the family, was reared by his widowed mother. She never re-married and died in January, 1884, in her eighty-sixth year. Young Edwards' youth was well occupied, either at school or in some useful employment. His education was received at the St. Charles College and at Central College, in Fayette, Howard county. He also spent a short time at a German school in War- ren county.
After concluding his college studies, Mr. Edwards, who had already decided to devote himself to the profession of the law, began a regu- lar course of legal studies under his elder brother, Hon. W. W. Edwards, now Judge of the Nineteenth Judicial Circuit. In 1863 he was admitted to the bar, and thereupon entered upon the regular practice of his profession at St. Charles. Gifted with a quick, acute legal mind, an assiduous student and a young man of steady, indus- trious habits, he soon so recommended himself to the community, as a lawyer, that he succeeded in accumulating a substantial practice. From the beginning he has been highly successful at the bar in the conduct of cases intrusted to his management, and he has always so carried himself as an attorney and in private life, that he has deserved and retained the respect and confidence of all classes. His theory of the practice of law is that it should be carried on on the same high plan of personal integrity and fair dealing required in other callings, and that a lawyer, as such, should be as far from taking a questiona- ble legal advantage, as a business man should of high standing and jealous of his credit, to defeat the payment of a just claim. In other words, he does not believe in what is commonly called " sharp prac- tice " at the bar, and thinks that success won in that manner is less to one's credit than not to succeed at all ; but that there is ample room in the profession for every honorable and industrious lawyer to at least obtain a worthy and reputable standing.
In 1870 he was solicited to become a candidate for the Legislature from this county, and consented to make the race. As was to have been expected, he was elected by a highly complimentary majority ;
378
HISTORY OF ST. CHARLES COUNTY.
and, in 1872, he was re-elected to the House. After serving two terms in the House of Representatives, in 1874 he became a candidate for the State Senate for the district composed of St. Charles and Warren counties. Again his candidacy was supported by a large majority of the people, and he accordingly took his seat as a member of theSenate. Since then he has been continuously re-elected to that body, and still represents this district. His high standing and popu- larity reveal a marked significance, when it is considered that whilst he is a Democrat his district has been largely Republican, but is now Democratic, the counties of Callaway and Montgomery having been added thereto. It is by no means a common thing in Missouri, where party lines are almost invariably drawn closely, for a constituency to choose a representative from the opposite party.
Mr. Edwards has now served 14 years, consecutively, in the State Legislature, and is the oldest member, in continuous service, in the General Assembly. His long experience and close business habits, and his ability and fidelity to the best interests of his constituents and of the State at large, render him a legislator of more than ordinary value to the people. The voters of his district justly consider that his defeat or refusal to serve would not only be a great loss to them, but to the best interests of the State, and they therefore support him, whenever he comes before them for re-election, with earnest and un- faltering devotion.
On the 6th day of March, 1873, Mr. Edwards was united in mar- riage to Miss Martha Ellen Whitney, a daughter of George Howe Whitney, formerly an old and esteemed citizen of this county, but now deceased. Mrs. Edwards is now, also, deceased. She died August 28, 1881, leaving four children, named, Emmet W., Lucile, Sarah E. and William W. She was a lady of many excellent quali- ties, and was greatly esteemed as a neighbor and acquaintance, as she was devotedly loved in her own family. Her loss was a heavy bereave- ment to her husband, who was attached to her with more than ordi- nary affection. By all her memory is cherished as that of one of the queenliest and best of women.
CASPER EHRHARD
(Of Ehrhard & Thro, Merchant Tailors and Dealers in Gents' Clothing and Furnishing Goods, St. Charles).
Mr. Ehrhard came to America with his uncle, John B. Thro, Sr., when about 15 years of age, in 1863, and has made his home at St. Charles ever since that time. He is of ancient German extraction, but the family had long been settled in Alsace, France, now a part of Germany. He was born in Alsace, January 12, 1848, being his primal birthday. His boyhood days were spent principally at school, at Mollan, his native village, but when 13 years of age he obtained a situa- tion as office boy in a manufacturing establishment at Wesserling, in which he continued until he came to this country. Here he followed clerking for his uncle, and continued with him in the dry goods busi-
379

ness until his uncle sold out in 1868. He subsequently clerked for Clem Hoddup until his uncle engaged in the clothing business, in the summer of 1869. He then resumed clerking for him, and in 1871 bought out his uncle. After this the firm of Ehrhard & Pritchett carried on the business until 1877, when Mr. Pritchett retired and John B. Thro, Jr., succeeded him, since which the firm has been, as it is at present, Ehrhard & Thro. This firm is by all odds at the head of the clothing business in St. Charles. They have a large establish- ment, and employ from 8 to 10 men, their aggregate sales reaching from $35,000 to $40,000 a year. The merchant tailoring branch of their business is quite important, their house being liberally patronized in this line. They employ the best cutters and fitters to be had, and guarantee satisfaction in every instance. Their tailors are artists in their trade, and they see to it that nothing leaves their shop on which they are not willing to risk their reputation. They make a specialty of making fine clothing, and their house has obtained a wide reputation for this class of work. They also keep a heavy stock of ready-made clothing and gents' furnishing goods- the leading stock of the city. Both are thoroughly capable and enterprizing business men, and eminently deserve the excellent success they have achieved. In the spring of 1869 Mr. Ehrhard was married to Miss Mary A. Holtzcheider, a daughter of Joseph A. Holtzcheider, of St. Louis. Mr. and Mrs. Ehrhard have seven children : Joseph, Hubert R., Edward, Oliver, Paul, Angeline and Alice. He and wife are members of the Catholic Church, and he is a member of the Catholic Knights of America, in which order he has held the office of financial secretary.
JOHN B. THRO, JR.
(Of Ehrhard & Thro, Merchant Tailors and Dealer in Gents' Clothing and Furnishing Goods, St. Charles).
Mr. Thro, the junior partner in the above-named firm, like Mr., Ehrhard, is a native of Alsace, born at Mollau, February 23, 1855. His father was Bernard Thro, and his mother's maiden name Theresa Koehl, both of old Alsacian families. John B., Jr., was reared in his native country up to the age of 13 when he came to America, making the trip across the Atlantic and on to St. Charles entirely alone so far as relatives and friends were concerned. Here he obtained a situation as clerk in a dry goods store, where he continued until 1877, when he bought an interest in the firm of Pritchett & Ehrhard, taking Mr. Pritchett's interest in the firm. He has since been a partner in the firm of Ehrhard & Thro, and has contributed very materially by his enterprise, thorough business qualifications and popu- larity to the success of the firm. The business of this firm has already been spoken of in the sketch of Mr. Ehrhard, so that it is unnecessary to repeat here what had been said there. Suffice it to say that they have one of the leading establishments in their line, outside of St. Louis, in North-east Missouri.

DAVID W. FERGUSON, M. D.
(Farmer and Stock-raiser, and Retired Physician, St. Charles).
Dr. Ferguson is a native of Ohio, born in Warren county, October 7, 1818. His father, William Ferguson, was originally from New Jersey, but his mother, whose maiden name was Mary Boal, was from Pennsylvania. They removed to Ohio as early as 1804, or rather the father went there at that time. They were married in that State in 1814. He died in Warren county, of which he was one of the pioneers, at a ripe and honored age, in 1832. Dr. Ferguson was reared in that county and received an excellent education. He took a thor- ough course in the ordinary schools and completed his education at the State University in Cincinnati. While there he also studied civil engineering. In the spring of 1838 he came to Missouri and located in St. Charles county. Here, after his removal to this county, he fol- lowed farming for a few years and then studied medicine under Dr. Twyman. His first and second course of lectures were taken at Mc- Dowell's College in 1843-44 and graduated there in the spring of '45. He then located in Marion county, Mo., for the practice of his pro- fession, and after two years spent there he practiced in Macomb, Mc- Donough, Ill., for two years. After this he returned to St. Charles county, and followed the practice here until 1856. Since then he has been engaged in farming exclusively. Dr. Ferguson has a handsome farm in the vicinity of St. Charles of 275 acres. In 1845 he was mar- ried to Miss Eliza Gallaher, a daughter of Rev. James Gallaher, who was orginally from East Tennessee. There were four children by this union : Robert H., who died in 1872, at the age of 28; Mary, the wife of Albert G. McDearmon ; Wilson B., now in Arizona ; and Ed- win, who died in 1879, at the age of 21. The mother of these died in 1861. To his present wife, formerly Miss Elizabeth G. Gallaher, a cousin to his first wife and a daughter of Rev. Allen G. Gallaher, he was married in 1864. Dr. Ferguson located on the farm where he now resides bordering on the city limits of St: Charles, in 1856. He and wife are members of the Presbyterian Church. Dr. F. was a director of Lindenwood College for a number of years.
ALEXANDER GARVIN
(Farmer and Stock-raiser, Post-office, St. Charles).
In all this world there is nothing more touching and tender than the devotion of a mother, a loving, true-hearted mother, to her chil- dren. With her it is an attachment stronger than life itself. There is no sacrifice too great for her to make for their welfare and happi- ness, nothing within the range of possibility too difficult for her to undertake. For them she is prepared to undergo a life-time of hard- ship and self-denial, of humble, unceasing toil if needs be, shut off from all pleasures and diversions, and cheered only by their happiness and success. This noblest and truest and purest of all the sentiments
381
HISTORY OF ST. CHARLES COUNTY.
of the human heart found a happy and striking illustration in the life of the good and devoted mother of the subject of the present sketch. A woman of singular nobility of heart, she was at the same time pos- sessed of a mind of rare intelligence and force. She came of a worthy New England family, the Malersons, of Connecticut, a family usually marked for their intelligence and culture. She, herself, was a lady of good education, and was almost au enthusiast in the cause of edu- cation. After her marriage in Pennsylvania to Alexander Garvin, Sr., they came West to Missouri, and settled in St. Charles county, as early as 1817. Here her husband subsequently died, leaving her a widow with small means, or, rather, with an average farm, for those davs, and with a large family of children. She continued to live in widowhood in this county for many years and until her death. With her children growing up around her on the farm, and with only ex- tremely indifferent school advantages available in the neighborhood, the great difficulties in the way of their education which confronted her would have appalled any one with less courage and energy, or less parental devotion. But widow as she was and with only such means as she could make by the industry of herself and children on the farm and by her own good management, she determined to see that they were given good educations. In such circumstances it would seem worthy of great credit to her even to have kept the family together and brought them up in ordinary comfort, to say nothing of attempting to give each of the children collegiate educa- tions, especially when the time and condition of the country are considered. But she so managed her affairs, conducted her farm with such energy and intelligence, that she not only brought up her children well and so that they always kept, and were welcomed in the best company, but gave each one the benefit of a college course. Few men of the county among its most substantial citizens did as well as this, and none did better. Her children all secured ad- vanced educations and became well settled in life, representative and respected members of their respective communities. Such is the result of the life-work of a loving devoted mother, a work accom- plished in the face of the greatest difficulties, but a work that should make her memory dear to every heart not insensible to all that is noble and true in human nature. The memory of such a mother may well be cherished by her children and her children's chil- dren as a' sacred family heritage, the purest and best that could be handed down. Alexander Garvin, Sr., and Anna ( Mal- erson) Garvin reared a family of seven children, and of these Alexander, Jr., was the sixth. He was born in Portage township, this county, July 10, 1825, and was left an orphan when a lad six years of age by the death of his father. He was reared on the farm by his mother, and, as indicated above, was given excellent educational advantages. He took the usual courses in the primary and inter- mediate schools, and completed his education at St. Charles College. After returning from college he engaged in farming on the homestead, and continued in that occupation until after his marriage. Mr. Gar-
382
HISTORY OF ST. CHARLES COUNTY.
vin was married February 9, 1854, to Miss Elizabeth J. Boyd, a daughter of William A. and Elizabeth (Poage) Boyd, highly re- spected residents of this county, but formerly of Indiana. Mr. Gar- vin's wife was educated at the Boonville Female Seminary, where she graduated after a thorough course in the class of '52. After his mar- riage, Mr. Garvin engaged in merchandising at St. Charles, and con- tinued in business at that city for about 16 years. He was very successful in business and accumulated a large property. In 1872 he retired to one of his farms in the county, where he is now living in comfort, and engaged in farming and managing his landed interests. He is one of the large land holders of the county. Mr. and Mrs. G. have been blessed with a family of eight children, five of whom are living : Marietta, who is a graduate of the Strother Institute, at Inde- pendence ; William E., who is a graduate of Westminster College, and of the Law Department of the Washington University, and is now engaged in practicing law at St. Louis ; Ulela, a graduate of the Synodical Female College at Fulton ; A. Boyd and Gertrude, the last two still quite young and at home. Mr. Garvin, as the education of his children would seem to indicate, inherited to a marked degree the characteristic of his mother in regard to education ; and this is un- questionably true. He has always taken an active and public-spirited interest in the cause of education, and has done as much as any man in the county to bring the people up to the public sentiment that now prevails in favor of education. His father was also a man of more than ordinary mental force and much given to reading and mental culture. He was a native of Richmond, Va., born Septem- ber 15, 1784. He died in this county, April 13, 1832. The mother, born in Connecticut, April 13, 1790, died October 20, 1871. They were married in Pennsylvania, June 7, 1810. Both were exemplary members of the Presbyterian Church. Mr. Garvin, the subject of this sketch, and his wife are also members of that church, and he holds the office of deacon in the church.
BENJAMIN H. GERET, M. D.
(Physician and Surgeon, St. Charles).
Dr. Geret has been engaged in the practice of his profession at St. Charles for the past 12 years. His superior skill and attainments as a physician and surgeon are well recognized by all who have an opportunity of judging of his professional standing. In point, of education and a thorough knowledge of his profession, so far as light is thrown on it by the latest and best writers, it may with all fairness and frankness be said, and without disparagement of others, that he stands second to few physicians, if to any, in the State; while his experience in the practice has been such as to make him thoroughly familiar with the practical use of the extensive knowledge he has obtained in the school and by private study and investigation. Edu- cated in Europe, both generally and professionally, he acquitted himself with distinguished honor as a student, which means a great deal in Germany, where the requirements of the universities are more

exacting and severe than in any other country. Such was the distinc- tion with which Dr. Geret graduated in medicine that he attracted general attention in Bavaria, his native country, especially in medical circles, and he was promptly offered a position as physician to the North German line of Lloyd steamers, which he accepted. He occu- pied that position with great credit to himself and with eminent satis- faction to the steamship management for nearly three years, or until the outbreak of the Franco-Prussian war, when he resigned it to accept a surgeon-majorship in the German army. He was specially appointed to that position by royal commission, in recognition of his prominence and eminent ability in his profession. Dr. Geret served throughout the war, and fully met the expectations that were enter- tained of him. For his eminent services he was formally decorated with the highest honors conferred on members of the medical pro- fession by both the King of Bavaria and the Emperor of Germany. After the close of the war Dr. Geret, although offered positions of distinction in the medical service of the army and in public and pri- vate institutions, decided to come to America, being ambitious to see something of the New World, about which he had read a great deal, and to gratify a naturally spirited, restless, enterprising disposi- tion, which is one of his most marked characteristics. He accord- ingly set sail for America, and landed at New York May 21, 1871. His reputation in his profession had preceded him to this country, and he was at once offered a position as physician in the German Hos- pital at New York. He remained there about nine months, when he resigned to push on out West. Dr. Geret having acquaintances at St. Charles came directly. to this city, where, after debating the matter in his own mind thoroughly, he decided to locate permanently. Here his eminent qualifications and superior professional skill soon became recognized, and he readily took a front position in his profes- sion. He has attained all the prominence that a place like St. Charles can confer. His practice extends over a circuit of about 20 miles, and he has been very successful in the treatment of cases. In surgery he is especially remarked for his eminent skill and abil- ity. Dr. Geret is a man of family. He was married September 17, 1874. His wife was a Miss Barbara Schneider, a daughter of the late Anton Schneider, of this city. The Doctor and Mrs. Geret have two children, Charlotte and Olga. He and wife are members of the German Catholic Church. Dr. Geret was a son of Frederick W. and Eleonore F. ( Versmann ) Geret, both born and reared in Bavaria. The Doctor was born there December, 1841. He received a univer- sity education, and graduated in medicine at the Medical University of Erlangen, in the class of '68. His subsequent career has been outlined above.
