After his return home Colonel Reichard was appointed United States assistant assessor of in- ternal revenue, under the United States Treas- ury Department, and served in that capacity for several years. handling business of the greatest importance and much complexity, and acquitting himself most creditably. He also gave some time to law reading, and, while he did not enter upon the practice, he found the technical knowledge thus gained to be of great advantage in his sub- sequent business career. In 1869 he became as- sociated with his father in the brewing business, under the firm name of Reichard & Son. and this. style was maintained until the death of Judge- Reichard, August 19, 1884. Shortly afterward

Colonel Reichard's brother, John, junior, came in as a member of the firm of Reichard's Sons. The business was conducted under the latter name until January 1, 1889, when John Reichard, Jr., retired on account of failing health, and George Weaver and Mrs. J. G. Reichard ( the last named being the widow of Colonel Reichard's brother Henry), were admitted to partnership, the firm name appearing as Reichard & Company. The interest of Mrs. Reichard was subsequently pur- chased, and the firm name of Reichard & Weaver was adopted. In 1897 the property was sold to the Pennsylvania Central Brewing Company, in which corporation Colonel Reichard became a director and vice-president, and the Reichard plant continued to be known by its own corporate title, thus preserving to it the identity of the fam- ily which had brought it to such large dimen- sions.


In addition to his connection with the great industry above named, Colonel Reichard has also served for many years as a director in the An- thracite Bank of Wilkes-Barre, and is now vice- president of that corporation, and is a director in the Hazard Manufacturing Company, the In- terstate Telephone Company of New Jersey, Wilkes-Barre & Wyoming Valley Traction Com- pany, the Dallas & Harvey Lake Traction Com- pany, and the Consolidated Telephone Company. In all his business relations he is recognized as a man of signal ability and entire integrity, and through the various corporations with which he is identified he has aided materially in promoting the industrial and financial interests of the city and the region dependent thereto. In politics he holds independent views, but has ever taken a deep interest in the larger affairs of the com- munity. In 1868 he was elected to the city council, and there rendered efficient service for a period of three years. During this time the first stone pavements were laid and the first street improvements made. Colonel Reichard treas- ures with loyal interest the memories of the dreadful battle years, and is numbered among the most active of the members of the Military Order of the Loyal Legion, Pennsylvania Com- manderv ; the Grand Army of the Republic, and the Union Veteran Union, and was the first col- onel commanding the last named body, whose dis- tinction it is to limit its membership to honorably discharged soldiers and sailors who have to their credit two or more years of honorable military service. He has been a member of the Masonic fraternity for nearly half a century, having been made a craftsman and master mason of Wilkes- Barre Lodge, No. 61, in the year he attained his


majority, and now affiliated with Landmark Lodge, No. 442, Free and Accepted Masons, of. which he is a charter member. He is also con- nected with Mauch Chunk Council, Royal and Select Masters, and with Packer Commandery, Knights Templar, of the same city; and holds- membership with local lodges of the Odd Fel- lows and Knights of Pythias, and with various other fraternal and social organizations, includ- ing the Westmoreland Club. With his wife he is a communicant of the Protestant Episcopal church.


October 27, 1875. Colonel Reichard was united in marriage with Miss Grizzy E. Gil- christ, daughter of Peter MeC. and Elizabeth (Horton) Gilchrist, natives of the state of New York, the former born in Saratoga and the latter in Windsor, and who died respectively in 1870 and 1884. Peter Gilchrist was proprietor of the Phoenix Hotel, which was erected near the pres- ent site of the Wyoming Valley Hotel. His wife was a daughter of Miller Horton, who was a man of great enterprise-a farmer, real estate- dealer, and who in the early days conducted a leading stage line. H. E. H.


FREDERICK C. AHLBORN, a late resi- dent of Wilkes-Barre, Pennsylvania, whose death on April 30, 1893, removed from the city one of its representative business men, was a native of Bavaria, born February 10, 1830, one of the nine children born to Henry and Elizabeth (Gagel) Ahlborn, five of whom came to the United States,. namely: Frederick C., Mrs. Kleuert, Mrs. Hil- bert, Henry and Charles.


Henry Ahlborn (father) was born in Han- over, where the early part of his life was spent .. After his marriage he lived in Schney, Bavaria, where he was a manufacturer of porcelain china, making goods for the Turkish government. He died at the age of fifty-six years, and his wife passed away at the comparatively early age of forty-eight.


Frederick C. Ahlborn was a resident of Ba- varia until he attained the age of twenty-two, in the meantime attending the common schools and pursuing his studies under the tutorship of his- unele, a clergyman. In 1852 he came to Amer- ica, locating in Philadelphia, where he accepted a clerkship, and also spent a short period of the time in traveling. He then changed his place of residence to Pottsville, Pennsylvania, and for a number of years was actively connected with a country produce concern. Later he removed to Wilkes-Barre, Pennsylvania, purchased a soap factory, and up to 1870 devoted his entire atten-

tion to the manufacture of soap. In that year he engaged in the pork packing business in connec- tion with his other enterprise, but later, owing to the steady increase in the new project, abandoned his former occupation, and directed his entire energy and thought to building up the new line, which at the time of his death had reached ex- tensive proportions and was one of the leading industries in that section. In all his transactions he acquitted himself in such a way as to gain the confidence and esteem of all with whom he was associated, and his business capability was rec- ognized throughout the community. He was a director of the Wilkes-Barre Deposit and Sav- ing Company, a member of the Independent Or- der of Odd Fellows, and an adherent of the prin- ciples of Republicanism.


Mr. Ahlborn married (first) in 1855, Maria Stahlmann, who died in 1866, leaving three daughters who are now the wives of Emil Rohrig. of Bamberg, Bavaria ; Carl Finger, and Ira Mar- vin, of Wilkes-Barre. Mr. Ahlborn married (second) in 1871, Henrietta Teufel, a native of Bavaria, who was the eleventh child of Andrew and Sophie Teufel, the former a Lutheran clergyman. Henrietta Teufel was educated in the family of Baron von Thungen, a fraternity brother of her father's, being especially instructed in foreign languages. It was as a teacher of French and German that she came to America : after her arrival in the United States she went west, where she taught in the high school at Marshall City, Michigan, until her marriage. Two sons and five daughters were the issue of this marriage, namely: Frederick, a wholesale grocer : Dr. Maurice B., and three of the five daughters surviving-Hildegarde, Ernestine and Emma.


Dr. M. B. Ahlborn married Eleanor Thomas, daughter of Isaac M. Thomas, (see Thomas Family), and they are parents of one son, Hervey Dunlap Ahlborn.

He was married in 1817 to Anna Katrina Seil- heimer, of Fromesheimer Greiss Alzey, Hesse Darmstadt ; they had nine children.


John Raeder, junior, eldest son of John and Anna K. (Seilheimer) Raeder, was born at


Heppenheim, Germany, October 25. 1820, died at Wilkes-Barre, October 3, 1896. He sailed from Havre to New York in the "Oneida," July 1841, and made the voyage in the remarkably short time of twenty-eight days. He at once made his way to Luzerne county, Pennsylvania, where he found employment, first at White Ha- .ven, then in Ransom township, and later at Wilkes-Barre. In the autumn of 1841 he was employed on the Lehigh canal at White Haven ; from 1842 to 1846 he was employed at Ransom, and in the latter year removed to Wilkes-Barre and took charge of the old Wyoming Hotel, a once famous hostelry which stood on South Main street, where the Christel Block now stands. In 1849 he returned to Ransom and took up farm work, but the end of another year found him engaged as a mason in the construction of the North Branch canal, making his home at Gardner's Ferry. He was admitted a citizen of the United States, August 6, 1851, by the court of quarter sessions of Luzerne county. He re- moved from Ransom township to the borough of Pittston, Luzerne county, in April, 1857, where he took charge of the storage vaults connected with John Reichard's brewery at Wilkes-Barre. He became landlord of the Union Hotel at Pitts- ton, in April, 1864.


While residing in Pittston, Mr. Raeder be- came cne of the organizers, and served as a di- rector of the Pittston Street Railway Company, and for several years was a director of the Peo- ple's Bank of Pittston. He was elected as a member of the town council of the borough of Pittston in 1868. He was commissioned by Gov- ernor Packer, of Pennsylvania, September 17, 1860, second lieutenant of the Pittston Yagers, in the Second Brigade, Ninth Division, Pennsyl- vania Militia.

Mr. Raeder removed to Wilkes-Barre, April, 1873, having purchased the Washington Hotel on West Northampton street. In the hall on the third floor of this building the old "Wyoming Yagers," (a well known militia company of Ger- mans, which existed prior to the Civil war) had had their armory and held their balls and other social functions. At a later date the Wyoming Artillerists, a militia company dating from 1842, occupied this same hall for their armory. Mr. Raeder conducted a hotel in this building for several years, and then retired from business, but continued to reside in the hotel building until 1895. Since September, 1895, the building has

1826. Mr. Worrell was disowned by the So- ciety of Friends for having served in the Revolu- tionary war. One hundred and ten young men of this society entered the Continental service from Delaware county and were also disowned. Mr. and Mrs. John Worrell had: Lewis; John, of Pequa Valley ; Priscilla and Rachel.


Lewis Worrell, eldest son of John and Mar- tha (Gamble) Worrell, born in Edgemont. Oc- tober 13, 1737, died Cape May, New Jersey, March 24, 1860, married, in 1810, Millicent Tay- lor, of Cape May, born 1790, died 1865. He learned the potter's trade at Westtown, Chester county, Pennsylvania, and in 1817 settled at Wilkes-Barre. He lived on North River street above Market street, until 1840, where he car- ried on the pottery business, in connection with a lumber yard. In 1848 he retired from busi- ness. In 1854 he removed to Elmira, New York, whence in May, 1858, he moved to Cape May, New Jersey, where he died. Mr. Lewis Wor- rell during his long residence in Wilkes-Barre earned the esteem of all its people. One who remembers him well, having had intimate busi- ness and social associations with him, says "He was a man of fine physique, with sparkling blue eyes, intelligent, and in every respect compan- ' ionable. He was full of energy and business tact and the very soul of honor and integrity. He lived in the Emley house, on River street, and his pottery stood on the present site of the Urquhart property, where Arnold Bertels now resides. It was an industrial establishment of no small consequence in a borough of the size of Wilkes-Barre, and flourished under his care- ful management. Mr. Worrell was a devout churchman, and an ardent participant in all ef- forts to help his less fortunate fellows and add to the good and prosperity of his city." Mr. and Mrs. Lewis Worrell had one son, George.


George Worrell, son of Lewis and Millicent (Taylor) Worrell, born in Wilkes-Barre, 1824, died Elmira, New York, July 21, 1887, married October 18, 1853, Eunice Callahan, born Decem- ber 24. 1831, died, a devout communicant of the Protestant Episcopal Church, September 21, 1904, at the summer residence of Mr. Raeder, Harvey's Lake, Luzerne county, Pennsylvania. She was the daughter of John and Mary (Cole) Callahan, and had two sons and two daughters, the younger daughter being Elizabeth, the wife of William L. Raeder. The Elmira Advertiser, speaking of Mr. Worrell at the time of his death, said "He was always an active and intelligent business man. At different times in his career he had been associated with the Nobles Manu-


facturing Company, and with the company that operated the woolen mills, but was chiefly known as a successful coal dealer. He brought the first car load of Pittston coal to Elmira in a canal boat on the once prosperous Chemung canal, and was the first to introduce the product of the Pitts- ton mines into Rochester, New York, and other cities. In political life he was not unknown, serving several times as member of the com- mon council of Elmira, and board of super- visors. These trusts were discharged to the credit of himself and the satisfaction of his con- stituents of the third ward. He was a member of St. Omer's Commandery and was connected with Grace Protestant Episcopal Church." The Gazette said of him "Personally, Mr. Worrell was one of the pleasantest of men. He was one of those generous, whole souled men, quiet and un- ostentatious in his way, but never withholding his aid from any deserving one. Few perhaps knew him intimately, but they can testify to his worth as a man, a citizen and a neighbor."


William L. and Elizabeth (Worrell) Raeder have four children : Millicent Worrell, born Sep- tember 27, 1888; Marjory Elizabeth, born Oc- tober 8, 1891; William Jolin, born September , 18, 1894, a life member of the Wyoming His- torical and Geological Society ; and Marian Irene, born June 12, 1896.
