D. SHULZE & SON *pages 574, 575*

D. Shulze & Son, proprietors of the City Meat Market of Glidden, established their present business in 1882, this being the pioneer meat market of the town. They keep in stock the best quality of meat, both fresh and salted, and a fine assortment of fowls, and also deal in fish, and by their strict attention to customers, and reasonable prices, they have succeeded well and built up a large trade. This firm owns the fine business house where they are located, which is a two-story building, centrally located on Main street. D. Shulze, the senior member of the firm, is a native of Germany. He came to America in 1848, locating at Cincinnati, Ohio, where he resided until the breaking out of the war, when he enlisted and served in the army for one year. In 1868 he removed to Clayton County, Iowa, remaining there until he came to Carroll County in 1882, since which time he has made his home at Glidden. He was married in his native country to Miss Louisa Hine, and to this union were born eight children. Mr. Shulze is a member of Post No. 291, G.A.R., at Glidden. H. F. Shulze, the eldest child, is the junior member of the firm of D. Shulze & Son. He was born at Cincinnati, Ohio, November 14, 1849, where he was reared and educated in the common schools. In his youth he was variously employed. He came to Iowa with his father, and located in Glidden in 1882. He was united in marriage in 1874 to Miss Hannah Backhouse, and to this union four children have been born — John, Henry, Louisa and an infant daughter yet unnamed.
