Henry C. Bastert, born 1815 in Brackwede, Wesphalia, emmigrated in 1843,
came by way of New Orleans to St. Louis, where he worked in a Sugar
factory for two years, locating in Quincy in 1845. He served in the war
with Mexico, and after that war conducted a grocery business in Quincy.
Then he went to farming near Tioga, Illinois, later returned to Quincy,
where he was one of the organizers of the German Insurance and Savings
Company, for years being president of the association. In 1894 he
departed this life. Children living are: Mrs. Caroline Niemeyer, Mrs.
Louisa Hartung and Miss Emma Bastert in Quincy and Mrs. Emilie Hengelberg
in St. Louis. J. Henry Bastert only son of Henry C. Bastert born April 5,
1866, on a farm in Hancock County, is an example of what push and close
attention to business can accomplish. When thirteen years of age he
filled the position of engineer at the old Aetna Iron Works. In 1883 he
became clerk with the German Insurance Company, soon was promoted to the
position of bookkeeper, and afterwards was elected as secretary, an
office which he held up to the time the company voluntarily went out of
business in 1894. After closing up the affairs of the company, and
having wound up its extensive business to the satisfaction of all the
stockholders, he engaged in the general loan and insurance business, the
name of the firm now being Bastert, Miller and Castle.
