MAUER, HENRY C.
Henry C. Mauer is a prominent architect of Beaumont whose professional activity can be recognized in some of the most noteworthy private and public buildings of that city. He was the architect of the South Park schoolhouse, the T. S. Reed Grocery Company building, the Alamo block, the S. Blanchette building, the J. B. Goodhue building, M. L. Hinchee's residence, the McFadden residence, the V. Weiss residence, M. J. Bass residence, C. T. Heisig residence, J. E. Broussard residence, four fire stations in Beaumont, and the Texas Company office building at Port Arthur, a bank at Silsby, and numerous others in various parts of the country.
Mr. Mauer was born in Fayette County, Texas, near LaGrange, June 6, 1873. His father, George, was born in Germany and came as a boy with his parents to Fayette County, Texas, where the family was among the early German residents of that section. In the Civil war he was for three years a private in the Confederate army, and is now living in Fayette County, retired from active pursuits. His wife, also still living, was before their marriage Miss Sophia Steves, a native of Germany.
After attending public school in Fayette County, Henry C. Mauer apprenticed himself at the building trades, and in four years' time gained a thorough practical knowledge of the business. It was his ambition to advance from the grade of artisan to the professional phase of the business, and to this end he took a two years' course in architecture in the well-known Brooklyn school, Pratt Institute. He returned to Texas in 1898 and has since been actively engaged in the practice of his profession, for short periods at LaGrange, Yoakum and El Paso, and in 1901 located permanently at Beaumont. For a year and a half he was in the employ of U. O. Long, architect, then had a brief partnership with C. Lewis Wilson, and has since been practicing alone.
Mr. Mauer is a Democrat in politics. He is a member of Beaumont Lodge, No. 286, A. F. & A. M.; Beaumont Chapter, No. 188, R. A. M., and of Jefferson Lodge, No. 55, Knights of Pythias. In 1903 he married Miss Kate Adams, daughter of R. F. Adams, of Jasper, Texas. They have one child, Henry C., Jr. Historical Review of South-East Texas and the Founders, Leaders and Representative Men, Vol 2, by Dermot Hardy and Maj. Ingham S.
