John Ostermeyer and J.J. Schroeder also had garages in the 1920's and 1930's. Ostermeyer came to Manning about 1921, first having a repair shop and then forming a partnership with Schroeder.
Ostermeyer later went into business for himself, handling the Pontiac and Oakland cars, Osden Liquid Gas and oils and having a repair shop at 421 Main Street. |
