From a History of Riverside County:
"One of the most highly esteemed and prosperous young merchants of Riverside County is Mr. Herbelin, who since June 1910, has been identified with the commercial interests of Elsinore. Born January 31, 1884, in New Orleans, La., he received his early education and completed his studies in Biloxi, Miss. In 1900 he accompanied his parents to Los Angeles, Cal., where his father, Jules V. Herbelin, opened a mercantile establishment which he conducted until his retirement in 1907. Mr. Herbelin, who is a native of Alsace-Lorraine, France, came to America in the '60s and in New Orleans married Miss Lucy Huet, whose birth occurred in Paris, France, and who passed away in Los Angeles in 1909.
"Shortly after his arrival in Los Angeles, Marcel Herbelin secured employment with Brownstein, Newark & Louis, with whom he remained ten years, availing himself of every opportunity presented to learn all phases of the mercantile business. This service, coupled with the training received in the store of his father, who for twenty years had been a leading merchant in Louisiana, Mississippi and California, enabled him in 1910 to launch a similar enterprise of his own, his subsequent success having proven his ability and good judgement.
"Mr. Herbelin was married in Los Angeles August 7, 1907, with Miss Mattie Switzer, and native of Flagstaff, Ariz, who came to California in 1897 with her parents William and Lou (Offut) Switzer. Both were natives of Kentucky and the former is deceased. Mrs. Switzer, making her home with her daughter, Mrs. Herbelin. During his residence in Los Angeles, Mr. Herbelin became a member of the Golden State Camp, No. 7110, M.W.A., beside which he holds membership in the I.C.M.A. (YMCA?), is a member of Elsinore Lodge, No. 289, F.&A.M., and with his wife is also a member of Elsinore Chapter, No. 243, O.E.S. Socially, he is a member and a director of the Lake Elsinore Commercial Club. Though very progressive and alive to all questions of the day, he firmly refuses to allow polities to bear in any manner upon his business interests, and is well known as a man of conscientious and generous principles."
