About Edward Mollenhauer, PhotographerThe son of German immigrants to Texas, Ed Mollenhauer (b.1872 - d. 1962), was born, lived and died in Yorktown, Texas,inDeWitt County,about 80 miles southeast of San Antonio. After the First World War, until 1952, Mollenhauer was Yorktown’s undertaker, the owner of Mollenhauer\'s Funeral Home. Prior to World War One, however, he was a partner with his brother Herman in a hardware store, and then owner of a grocery store.For a few years, from at least 1905 until 1914, he also ran a photography studio out of his grocery store. In October, 1910, he appears on a list of attendees at the Texas Professional Photographers Association convention in Houston, and advertisements for his photography gallery run in local papers until at least 1914.
This is a rare item from asmall-town,turn-of-the-century, Texas photographer. In fact, the only other Mollenhauer photograph I’ve seen is a cabinet card of an infant, part of the Lawrence T.
