Whilst on the subject, I though that I'd toss a couple of my stories into the mix: One great-grandfather, Philip(p) RUDOLPH, originally of Sindringen, Württemberg, was a teamster/driver for the Lafayette Brewery around the 1880 period and perhaps on into the '90s. It was said that on account of his considerable physique (6'6''), he could lift the large wooden kegs onto his shoulders with ease. It's very possible that my grandfather, Peter SCHUCK, and his eldest brother, Herman SCHUCK, took out a loan from Anheuser-Busch when they purchased the saloon/grocery on 2nd St. belonging to their father, Philip Jacob SCHUCK, originally of Obermoschel in the Rhenish Palatinate, during the first decade of the 20th century upon the latter's retirement. I say this because a relatively few years later the late August A. Busch would of occasion pull up to the establishment in his hot convertible with its alligator leather interior to visit. And of course the SCHUCKs were occasional visitors to Busch Gardens, as well as later to the Bevo Mill. If any of the above rings true with anyone on the List, particularly the contents of the first paragraph, I'd very much like to hear about it - thanks! Peter Schuck
