C. Reimers

C. Reimers - Was born in Germany May 1,1831, and resided in his birthplace until 1852, where he received his education. In that year he crossed the Atlantic, arriving in New York, from whence he came via Panama to San Francisco. Here he worked at different occupations until 1856, when he embarked in the grocery business, which he continued until 1874. He then recrossed the ocean to the home of his youth in Germany, where he sojourned nearly one year, when he once more returned to California, and in June, 1875, he settled in Napa and began the grocery business, which he still continues, being located on the corner of Main and Third streets. His place is the well known "O. P. C." store. He is still unmarried.
