Individual Note:   Owner/Manager of Acme Beef Co., 313 Walnut St., Catasauqua, PA

Individual Note:   Lived up around Allentown (Alton Park?). [Per family lore]

From the History of Catasauqua, Lehigh Co., PA:
Acme Beef Company. The Acme Beef Company at 313 Walnut Street furnishes the tables of the neighborhood with meat of tenderness and quality. The largest stockholder and manager, Clayton Ziegler, built the market in 1911. The building is a red structure. The words "Beef, Veal, Lamb, Pork, and Poultry," underneath the firm's name stands out prominently in the mind of a person walking up Walnut Street.
The company, with a full line of meats and common groceries, by up-to-date business methods, has given the residents of the section prompt and efficient service.

From 1920 Census:
Family was living in Catasauqua Borough in Lehigh County, PA. The family owned the home at 315 Walnut Street with no mortgage. Clayton was a butcher working on his own account and his son Clarence was a butcher working for wages. Living with Clayton and Jenny were their sons Clarence and Albert. Albert was still in school.
