Peter Baumgartner, proprietor of St. James Livery Stable, and
dealer in wines, liquors and cigars, has been a resident of St. James,
Mo., since January, 1878. He was born in Germany in 1852, and at
the age of two years was brought to the United States by his parents,
until four years of age residing in Pennsylvania. Since that time he has been a resident of Maries County, M0. The father, Anton Baumgartner, was a farmer and carpenter, and died in Maries County in
1887. His wife, Mary, is still living, aged about seventy years.
Their son, Peter, is the second of four children, and was educated in
the common schools of Maries County. In March, 1872, he was married to Missouri Isabella Jones, who was born and reared in Missouri,
and died in 1878, leaving three children, only one of whom is living.
In March, 1879, Mr. Baumgartner married his second wife, whose
maiden name was Jennie Ann Brown. She was born in Gasconade
County, and is the mother of four children. In 1886—87 Mr. Baumgartner served as mayor of St. James. He has a good business block
and livery barn in the town, keeps from fifteen to twenty horses, and
has an excellent lot of vehicles, all of which he has earned by hard
labor and good management since he attained his twenty-second birthday. He is a Democrat, and cast his first presidential vote for Tilden in 1876, and is a member of the I. O. O. F., Big Spring Lodge No. 237. He is also a member of the Triple Alliance, and belongs to the Catholic Church. His business amounts to about $5,000 annually.
