John A. Linhardt
John A. Linhardt, alderman of Jefferson City, Mo., for the Second Ward, is a native of Cole County, born on the 14th of April, 1863, being the eldest of seven children born to the marriage of John Christopher Linhardt and Margaretta Seifert, who were native Germans and came to America at an early day, and were among the first settlers of Cole County, Mo. John A. Linhardt's early life was spent in Jefferson City, where he also received his education, and at the early age of fifteen years he began clerking in the grocery store belonging to his father. The latter was a shoemaker by trade, and worked at it and farming for a number of years, but gave up this occupation to engage in merchandising. He died on the 2d of April, 1884, his widow still surviving him. Our subject is serving his first term as a member of the city council, and is filling the duties of this responsible position in a very acceptable manner.
