Biography

Note1897In 1897, in Port Chester, Westchester County, New York, A Centennial Commemorative history of Port Chester says that in 1897, "Louis C. Hartlieb opened a meat market on Locust Avenue with a horse and wagon delivery service. The site is now part of Edison School playground. The business was moved to the present location, directly opposite Siegel's in 1914. The late Mr. Hartlieb was president of the Germania Maennerchor for many years. The market is now run by his sons." A photo shows the store, with the sign "Choice Meats & Groceries, Louis J.
