PHILIPP ZIEGLER is one of the self-made German citizens of Louisville. He
came here a poor boy, and by dint of his own energy, honesty and industry
has secured an independent fortune.  He was born in province of Baden, in
1854, and at the age of eighteen years came to the United States, and to
Louisville.  He soon obtained a position as clerk, first for John Hehl,
contractor and builder, and afterward with H. Wedenkind & Co., wholesale
grocers.  In the fall of 1878 he went into the grocery business for
himself, at his present stand, corner of First and Gray Streets--at first
with Charles Klein as partner; but he soon after bought him out, and has
since carried on the business alone.  In 1881 he was married to Miss
Sarah Mehohoff, of Louisville.  Henry Mehohoff is the largest dairyman in
the State, keeping always on hand from 150 to 300 cows.  His dairy is
located on the Preston Street road, and comprises 173 acres of choice
land just back of the House of Refuge.  Mr. and Mrs. Ziegler have but one
child--a girl, three years of age--names Alice.  Mr. Ziegler visited the
"Faderland" last summer with his family, and spent several months
traveling over the southern and northern parts of Europe.
