General Notes: Husband - William Flaccus

---

He came to the United States from Germany (Prussia) at the age of nineteen years, settled in Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania, where he became a well known manufacturer of glue. He continued in business in Pittsburgh several years, then moved to Lawrenceville, Pennsylvania, where he operated a glue factory and a tannery. After operating the tannery ten years, it was destroyed by fire, and with his son, William Flaccus, he purchased a tannery in Allegheny City (Pittsburgh North Side) and established a business there as the William Flaccus & Son Leather Company, and after his death the son changed the name to the Flaccus Oak Leather Company.
