Conrad Seltzer


Res. of Conrad & William Seltzer
CONRAD SELTZER, long and widely known as an extensive dealer in cattle, was born in Marbury, Kurrhessen, Germany, Sept. 17th, 1818, and with a portion of his father's family came to America in 1835.  Locating at Pottsville they built and occupied a small log house at Fishbach.  In 1841 Mr. Seltzer engaged in butchering, his market being located opposite, the Exchange Hotel.  In 1848 he removed to Minersville, where he followed the same business till 1858.  During the latter year he removed to the "Bull's Head" farm, where he engaged in cattle dealing and remained until 1870, when he retired from business and was succeeded by his sons, William H. and A. W. Seltzer, the former engaging largely in trade in cattle, the latter in sheep and swine.  Mr. Seltzer was married December 10th, 1839, to Dorotha E. Roehrig.
