Notes
a. Note:   Oscar followed in his father's footsteps as owner of the Crown Apothecary (Kron-Apotheke) in Biberach. His widow continued to run the pharmacy after his early death (at the age of 52), but since the only son and heir displayed no interest in pharmacy as a vocation. (see no. 132), she sold it to pharmacist Otto Renz in 1917. The Crown Apothecary was thus in the hands of the family for three generations, that is, ninety-four years (from 1823 to 1917). Laura thereafter shared a rented apartment with two sisters outside the Ulm Gate. Die Kron-Apotheke, established in the early 1500s and rebuilt in 1630, is one of the more interesting edifices in modern Biberach, chiefly because it has been well maintained through the years. The pharmacy is presently owned by Otto Renz's daughter, Mrs. Annemarie Neukirchen, and her husband. It is definitely worth a visit. Paintings of Oscar, his father (no. 73), and his grandfather (no. 58) hang in the pharmacy.
