    3. Kay, My ggrandfather, George Edw. STREITZ, also worked for the Lemps in the late 1800s and early 1900s. I wrote several folks who might have had any type of employee lists, etc, trying to get an idea what my ggrandfather's history was with the Lemps, but was unable to get any information. My father, when a child, said that he was told by his grandmother, Geo.'s wife, that she too worked in the caves for the Lemps. Do you or any listers have any employee lists or anything from the Lemp Brewery that could reveal additional information on his employment with the brewery? Yes, the Lemps were a strange bunch. When at the Lemp Mansion a couple years ago, I purchased a book on the Lemps, titled, "Lemp - The Haunting History", written by Stephen P. Walker. It tracks the family through all their triumphs and tragedies. Lots of photographs, all in all a good read. BTW, I donated a Lemp Brewery stein to the Mansion that had belonged to George Edw. It's displayed at the Mansion with the other memorabilia from the once-proud and thriving brewery. Regards to all, Bill Streitz Shalimar, FL
