Information from family records . I have a copy in my materials. Uncle Phil was known as a hard man. He was of German stock and ruled his family. The two boys, Federick and Phillip, devoted their lived working for him and after his death paying of all the debts. They did manage to save up a comfortable fortune. Neither married till old in life. His daughet Margaret was in deep family trouble for marrying Purtland Elder. He liked to work mules and they were very dangerous to be around. In spite of all of that, He always treated me well and when I was visiting as a small boy he would take me on long fishing trips up into the Rockies.
