General Notes: Husband - Paul Hugus


He was born in Westmoreland County, Pennsylvania, and at an early age came to Pittsburgh for the purpose of engaging in business. He accepted a position with David Lloyd, a dry goods merchant, with whom he remained for a number of years. He then, in association with his brother William, bought out the business in which he had so long been employed, and they carried on successfully for forty years what was at that time one of the most important dry goods establishments in the city of Pittsburgh. Mr. Hugus finally sold out his interest to his brother Daniel and Paul Hacke, and established a stove manufactory under the firm name of Graff, Hugus & Company, the enterprise being also known as The Western Stove Company. During the remainder of his life Mr. Hugus was actively identified with this, being a typical business man of the old school. He held several important offices in the community, among them being that of head of the board of directors of the German National Bank.
