SAMUEL OHENSTEIN.

SAMUEL OHENSTEIN.
Samuel Ohenstein, manager of the Wyoming Brokerage Company of Cheyenne, was born in Denver, Colorado, on the 15th of March, 1878, a son of Charles and Bertha (Frank) Ohenstein. The family came to Wyoming in 1878, when Samuel was but four months old. The father engaged in business in Cheyenne, remaining a resident of the city until called to his final rest, about 1912. His wife has also passed away. They were the parents of four children, of whom Samuel was the second in order of birth. His brother Hugo was the promoter of the brokerage business in which Samuel Ohenstein is now engaged, they remaining as partners in the undertaking until the death of Hugo Ohenstein in August, 1917. At the usual age Samuel Ohenstein became a public school pupil, completing the work of various grades until he was graduated from the high school. He then became associated with his brother Hugo in the grocery and bakery business, under the firm style of Ohenstein Brothers, and they were active in the grocery trade for a long period, enjoying a liberal patronage. In 1917 they organized the Wyoming Brokerage Company and upon the death of Hugo Ohenstein, Samuel Ohenstein assumed full management of the business. The brokerage company deals principally in stock and the affairs of the company have been so managed that the clients have won substantial profit. Mr. Ohenstein as head of the company has leases on oil lands and oil stocks of the highest grades. He always investigates a property before he advises investment and he is thoroughly informed concerning the stocks which he handles. The success which has come to his clients through him has led to the continued growth of his patronage and he is now the head of a very gratifying business. In 1910 Mr. Ohenstein was united in marriage to Miss Bessie Johnson and to them has been born a daughter, May Elizabeth. In politics Mr. Ohenstein maintains an independent course, holding man above party. He considers the capability of a candidate and casts his vote accordingly. He is a member of the Industrial Club and is interested in all of its plans and purposes for the upbuilding of the city. He is fond of fishing and motoring and various phases of outdoor life, but never allows recreation to interfere with the faithful performance of his duties in business connections. He is interested in the state and its development and is a most public-spirited man, found as the champion of all well defined plans and measures that look to the upbuilding and growth of city and state. He is widely and favorably known as a capable and resourceful man—one who accomplishes what he undertakes, whether for the benefit of his individual business interests, for the welfare of his clients or for the upbuilding of the commonwealth.
