HISTORY:
- A German immigrant, Jacob Schneider, purchased a large tract of land in 1853 from Alex Ingham. Jacob, a piano manufacturer, lived with his wife Christina (Graef) in a large home at the corner of Denison Ave. and West 23rd St. This corner property (sublots 113 & 114 in the Jacob Schneider Allotment) later became the site of an apartment complex.
- In the mid-1880's when he was in his 70's, he began disposing of his holdings by selling off individual lots. Some were sold to his children: Mary Elizabeth (a spinster), Mary A. (wife of Charles Kroehle), Julia C. (wife of Edmund Nicolaus), and Herbert. Only Mary Elizabeth remained in the neighborhood until her death in 1915.
