CHARLES PFEIFFER is a native of this city, and was born November 20, 1837.
He is a son of Henry and Magdalene Pfeiffer, natives of Germany, who came
to the United States in 1828, locating in New York State, and after
remaining there for several years came to Louisville.  He received his
education in the public schools, and then learned the trade of stove
molding in the factory of Wallace, Lithgow & Co.  In April, 1866, he formed
a copartnership with some of his fellow workmen under the name of Hare,
Leaf & Co., which continued until 1870, when the firm was changed to
Fisher, Leaf & Co., which name it still bears.  They are manufacturers of
stoves, mantels, grates, etc., and have a large establishment on High
street and Portland avenue, employing about 160 people.  The factory has
never stood still ten days at a time since first started, and the firm
ship their goods all over the Untied States, and occasionally to Germany.
Mr. Pfeiffer was married in 1861 to Miss Julia Gould, of this city,
daughter of Jacob Gould, a native of Boston, Mass.  They have four
children living, viz: Robert, Mary V., Katie Belle and Norbert Lee.  Mrs.
Pfeiffer died in 1876.
