BINGAMAN FAMILY.

The Bingaman family originated in Germany. For generations the home of the family in the Pennsylvania has been in Berks county, Pa.

Peter Bingaman, the grandfather of our sub- ject, was a weaver by trade, and followed that occupation throughout his life. He lived and died in Reading, Pa. His mother was a daughter of Col. Nicholas Lotz, of Reading, who was a foremost citizen of Reading and Berks county, and prominent during the Revolutionary period, rendering his country active service at the front. He married Mary Oswalt. They were the par- ents of nine children: Jacob, Peter, Charles, David, William, Catherine, Mary, Elizabeth and Margaret.

William Bingaman, the fifth son of Peter and Mary (Oswalt) Bingaman, was born in 1822 at the corner of Eight and Walnut streets, Read- ing. He received his education in the public schools of Reading and when quite young learned the barber trade, which occupation he followed all his life. In 1842 he first engaged in business on his own account, on Penn street, below Sev- enth, and later on the South side.

For a period of twenty years he conducted business at No. 718 Penn street, where he be- came well known.

Owing to continuous indoor confinement, his failing health caused him to make a change of occupation and location. He purchased a small tract of land in Exeter township, where he re- sided about two years and a half, when his health had so much improved that he returned to Read- ing and opened a shop at No. 122 South Eighth street, and later removed to 343 North Eighth street, where he continued until his retirement from business, in 1881. He died at his home on June 2, 1901, at the age of 79 years; was in- terred in the Charles Evans cemetery.

He was married May 27, 1845, to Rebecca Graul, born Dec. 7, 1823, daughter of George and Elizabeth (Egge) Graul. Mr. Graul was by trade a bricklayer, and assisted in building the old freight depot of the P. & R. Company.

Their chidren were: Emma (Mrs. Harry Morris), Charles C., of whom below; Mary A., deceased; Elizabeth, a graduate of the Reading High school, class of 1871, and became a teacher in the public schools; Thomas, engaged in the barber business on Court street, Reading, mar- ried Martha Scull; Annie A. (Mrs. Martin L. Stroh), and Katie, who died aged seventeen years.

CHARLES C. BINGAMAN, eldest son of Wil- liam and Rebecca (Graul) Bingaman, was born at Reading, August 16, 1848. His boyhood days were passed in Reading, where he attended the public schools and at an early age learned the trade of barber, under the supervision of his father, and he continued in this business until he reached manhood.

In 1869 he removed to Allentown, Pa., and established himself in business on Hamilton street, where he successfully conducted a chair shop for a period of four years. In 1873 he entered the United States mail service as a railway postal clerk, which position of trust and responsibility he filled for a period of 14 years, running on various lines of roads throughout Pennsyvania.

In 1887 he resigned his position and estab- lished himself in the mercantile business in Allen- town, opening a store at Fifth and Union streets. Here he conducted a grocery store for four years, at the end of this period he was appointed by Mayor Allison a sanitary inspector of the city of Allentown, Pa., he being the first appointee in this department. After a period of about one year, he was appointed superintendent of the city water works, and in 1897 he accepted the position of superintendent of the Allentown Steam Heat and Power Company, located at South Hall . street. Since assuming this responsible position, the plant has been greatly improved and en- larged; at this date having twelve boilers and two and one-half miles of pipe line.

Mr. Bingaman is a person of much energy and force of character. In politics he is a staunch Republican; was chairman of the city and county committee during the Mckinley cam- paign.

He is a member of the Knights of Malta, is liberal in his religious views, his motto being the "Golden Rule."

In 1868 he was united in marriage to Alice Wetherold, a native of Allentown, daughter of William H. Wetherold. Their children were: One who died in infancy; William, who died in young manhood; Mary (May) who married John F. Miller, an employee of the Philadelphia & Reading Railroad Company, residing at Har- risburg, Pa .; and Maude, who died at the age of three years.
