William Peter, Sr., founder and head of the William Peter Brewing Company, Union
Hill, died June 10, 1918, at 9 o' clock at night, aged 86 years. Mr. Peter had been at the brewery the day before, as late as 6 o'clock, talking business with his son, though he had retired from his active business management some years ago. Half an hour later, after reaching his home, he was taken ill. Dr. F.B. Stellwagon was immediately sent for. Mr. Peter was in intense agony. He was suffering from a severe cold, and this added to the infirmities of age was fast bringing him to his end. The direct cause was oedema of the lungs. The cold was contracted on a Sunday when he went out for a long ride. The same thing happened just a year before, and at that time he nearly died as a result of a cold he contracted while automobiling. Dr. Stellwagon worked for over two hours to save his life, and was still with him in a vain attempt to bring him relief when death came. Dr. Waechte of New York, a specialist who has also attended Mr. Peter from time to time and who was sent for, reached the house after he had passed away. His three sons and his wife were with him when he died, the family having summoned when it became evident that his life was in danger. His son Charles, who had been interned in Germany through World War I, had not been heard from since this country entered that war. An effort was made to send news of his father's death to him through a neutral country, Switzerland. Another son, Emil Peter, died December 5, 1917. The funeral was held at his home on a Thursday afternoon at 2 o'clock, and the services were conducted by Rev. William Mager, pastor of the Columbia Street Reformed Chruch, Union Hill. Interment was held in Flower Hill Cemetery. The funeral arrangements were in the care of the S.R. Sharpe Company. Mr. Peter's greatest hobby was painting, and he kept up his work with his brush until a few weeks before his death. He tried only a few days before his death to do some work at his easel, but his failing strength made it impossible, and he gave up the attempt sadly. He enjoyed going to the counting house of the brewing company opposite his handsome home, even though he might not feel able to do more than look around at the officials and their assistants at work. He went over that day at 2 o'clock, and seemed to enjoy the time he spent there, nearly four hours, even more than usual. BORN IN BADEN BORN IN BADEN 18321832 William Peter, founder of the great beer brewing plant of the William Peter Brewing Company, Incorporated, of the Union Hill, fled from Achern in the Grand Duchy of Baden, Germany, where he was born, March 16, 1832, to escape the persecution he would have been subjected to as the son of one of the leaders in the revolution of 1848-1849, against Prussian domination. He had gone through his own battles as a lad to gain his parents' consent to become a brewer, a line of business his heart had been set upon from boyhood, and one that his family bitterly opposed. Doubltess the art studio in the handsome home held the secret of his serene character, for in it he had always found relaxation from care after the business day, and even up to the very end of his life few days that did not find him busy for several hours at his easel painting the pictures he loved, and thinking of the old artists friends whom he drew to him through his talent in his younger days. STARTED IN WEST STARTED IN WEST NEW YORKNEW YORK One-hundred and thirty-six years ago, in 1865, saw the coming of William Peter, Sr., to North Hudson. One-hundred-forty-three years ago, Mr. Peter, then eight years in this country, started a little brewery at West New York, his establishment having a kettle capacity of three barrels a day. He paid the imposing sum of $44 a year rental for the place, house and two lots, and his lease carried an option for the purchase of the place at the end of two years. MOVED TO UNION HILL MOVE TO UNION HILL He decided against buying there, in favor of Union Hill, because property was cheaper farther down the river. It was near the summer shows and other amusement places that attracted New York people and " the shoemakers of Guttenburg, " to his little beer place in those early days. That first little brewery was somewhere near Seventeenth street on the west side of the Hudson Boulevard, West New York. The ground was leased from a man in Williamsburg, Brooklyn, where Mr. Peter had been in the employ of the Walther Brewing Company before he came to North Hudson. Both West New York and Guttenburg, but especially the latter place were great gathering places on Sundays in those days for the pleasure seeking element of New York City, and the Peter brew of beer drew a line of solid custom that would have probably made him as successful there as in Union Hill, had he elected to stay. BOUGHT PART OF DUER FARM BOUGHT PART OF DUER FARM Several changes marked the years following his coming to West New York, until in 1865 he founded the brewery business on the Union Hill property. The place was part of the old Cantello Farm on the old Bulls' Ferry Road, the farm at the time when he had purschased part of it, being under management of the Duer family, another old time name in Union Hill and Weehawken. BREWMASTER FOR FAUSEL BREWMASTER FOR FAUSEL Before he established the Union Hill brewery, Mr. Peter filled the position of brewmaster at the George Fausel Brewery, Union Hill, which was then located at Palisade avenue and Franklin street, where one of North Hudson's many silk mills stood. Mr. Fausel, by the why, built the Peter mansion on the Hudson avenue. Before he was with Fausel, Mr. Peter purschased some property in Union Hill and started a brewery of twelve barrels daily capacity. That was in 1862. In 1863 he took Carl Meynberg into partnership and at the end of a year, sold his interest to Mr. Meyenberg. From 1864 to 1865 he was with Mr. Fausel, maturing his plans for his future undertaking while there. FROM SMALL BEGININGS FROM SMALL BEGINNINGS He started his present brewery with a daily capacity of seventy barrels. Against this and the three barrels of his best little West New York brewery, the Peter plant back in the early century had a capacity of nearly 1500 barrels a day! He also established a beer-garden, known as the "Waldschloss," also in West New York, near Guttenburg. From 1870 to 1875 Mr. Peter had two men associated with him in the business, first a man named Brock, the company being Peter & Brock, and later Philip Hexamer of Hoboken, founder of the Hexamer Riding Academy, who married Mr. Peter's sister, Anna Peter. It was was known as Peter & Hexamer, and the partnership was of two years' standing. The William Peter stock company was organized one-hundred and ten years ago on May 1, 1890. Every member of the incorporation contract belonged to the Peter-family AN OLD AND HONORED FAMILY AN OLD AND HONORED FAMILY William Braunstein, a nephew, was a prominent figure in the company, and had always upheld the family traditions of honor and integrity as they have come down through the generations from the first sturdy progenitor of the stock, Martin Peter, who lived at Achern in 1670, who established the homestead there at which William Peter, Sr., of Union Hill, was born. The property was held in the family through 200 years, or until William Peter's father, Franz Joseph Peter, who was mayor of Achern, fell into dispute with the monarchial powers through the revolution of 1848-1849, and all of his property and goods was confiscated by the crown. FAMILY STANDING HIGH FAMILY STANDING HIGH The high standing of the family even through those perilous times may be realized through the fact that although the father, Franz Joseph Peter, was held a prisoner at Karlsruhe by the monarchial after the revolution, and that he escaped from there from Strassburg, France, from whence he made his way to the United States in 1849, the family had influence at court sufficient to save enough of the property and money to enable his wife and five children to cross the Atlantic to join the head of the family in 1850, less than a year after the refugee himself arrived here. The father of William Peter, Franz Joseph Peter, lived with him at the Peter home at 139 Blum street, after his wife's death at the American home stead of the family at New Drop, Staten Island. He was well known to old timers there. Searching for an ancestral inheritace of the son's love for and determination to learn and practice the brewing trade, it is found in his paternal great-grandfather, Johann Anton Peter of Achern, who was an innkeeper in "Ober Achern." His tavern is supposed to have been an inheritance from his father-in-law, the first proprietor. In those days in Germany, an inkeeper was a man of importance and power in public affairs, and Johann Anton Peter filled every requirement of the high position, and doubtless through it instilled in the Peter family the love for that line of business that has developed to such a high degree of efficiency in William Peter, his three American sons and a grandson. The public beer room of the Union Hill establishment, was located in the original fframe section of the giant seven-story main brewery building, carried back then some of the air of the old German inn, and its history included visits from important people in German circles there, as well as pleasure seeking local parties who in former years would drive up in handsome carriages drawn by spirited horses, or on horseback, riding in or out of town from the famous old Hexamer and other riding academies of Hudson county, now it is the honk of the auto other than those on horseback, but the same brand of Peter courtesy now long gone can't await the parton of the past that welcomed old time clientele. The sailing vessel "Gallia," on which William Peter, Sr., his mother, four sisters and a brother-in-law, Max Frech, came to America, took seven weeks for the trip, and arrived here September 14, 1850. When he fled from Germany, William Peter was serving his apprenticeship in the brewing trade under his brother-in-law, Leopold Graf, through who married with the boy's sister, Fanny Peter, he had been able to start the realization of his life dream to be a brewer. GETS AN APPRENTICESHIP GETS AN APPRENTICESHIP Mr. Peter was graduated from the elementary schools of Achern when he was fourteen. He then went to the technical school of the Moravian Brothers at Koenigsfeld in the Black Forrest region of Baden. While there his sister's marriage gave him the chance to negotiate with Mr. Graf for the apprenticeship in his brewery, and in the two and a half years he spent there, he made himself master not only of the brewing and malting business but also of the allied trade of cooperage. LEARNING THE BUSINESS LEARNING THE BUSINESS Three days after he reached New York, he was filling a position with E. Richter Brewing Company on Forsythe street. Later he went with the David Jones Ale Brewery on Pitt street, New York, and with other New York and Brooklyn companies, always working diligently to increase his knowledge of his trade. He spent two and a half years in Cincinnati, returning to New York in 1856, when he secured a position as brewmaster of the Bernheimer & Schmidt, Staten Island Brewing Company. That brings his career up to his entrance into North Hudson territory, for he came to Union Hill from Staten Island to enter the employ of George Fausel. From Fausel's he went to the Walther people in Williamsburg, Brooklyn, and thence in 1859 to West New York to start his original three-barrel daily capacity brewery. The imposing group of buildings that comprised the William Peter Brewing establishment of 1918, represented the steady growth of the business through fifty-two years. A cluster of old buildings no longer used, stood still at the bottom of the eminence on which the propery was located, as one goes toward the brewery up Weehawken street, ( now Peter street ) from Park avenue, Union Hill. The group of buildings included a fine bottling department with a capacity of 60,000 barrels and was equiped with the most modern machinery and appliances. The main brew house of granite and brick, seven stories high, was erected in 1887. The entire plant was designed and constructed by the founder of the company whose genius in such lines had always enabled him to add the latest modern features to his great plant. FRIEND OF ARTISTS FRIEND OF ARTISTS Mr. Peter's talent for painting had broadened his mental outlook in many ways. Hundreds of llandscapes and pictures in still life adorned his studio and the picture gallery of his home, the former embracing scenes in the Black Forest of his native land, and of the Catskills in this country, where he has been accustomed to spend his summers. The artist Eglau was his master through his own invitation some sketches Mr. Peter was doing in the Catskills attracting Mr. Eglau's attention, with the result that he urged Mr. Peter to take up the brush in place of the pencil. Another artist friend, Witeveld, a Hollander, is buried in the Hoboken Cemetery instead of Potter's Field through the affection in which he was held by William Peter, Sr., his friend and host. HEARED JENNY LIND HEARED JENNY LIND When Jenny Lind came to this country to sing at the Castle Garden, Mr. Peter was unable to pay the price of admission to hear her, but with one of his sisters found a place on a window ledge of the hall, and sat there through the entire concert, near the famous Swedish Nightingale. THE PETER FAMILY THE PETER FAMILY Mr. Peter married three times, his thrid wife having been Mrs. Sophia (Vogel) Bertram. Her daughter, by her first husband married August Peter, a son of her present husband, and the second vice-president of the brewing company. The first Mrs. William Peter Sr., was Magdalena Jager, and the second a widow, Mrs. Caroline (Aeppli) Ohlenschlager. Her daughter Sophie Ohlenschlager married William Braunstein, whose mother was a sister of William Peter, Sr., president of the company. FROM WEEHAWKEN TO KOSSUTH FROM WEEHAWKEN TO KOSSUTH William Peter, Sr., developed his business rapidly and aquired a considerable portion of the property in the vincinity of Hudson avenue and Weehawken street, ( now Peter street ) . From year to year his plant was extended until the William Peter Brewing Company became known as one of the largest concerns of its kind in the state. The property extended from Weehawken ( now Peter ) to Kossuth streets and from Hudson to Park avenues. The valuation ran into hundreds of thousands of dollars. The fortune amassed by William Peter, Sr., from his brewing plant amounted to several million dollars.
