  21. "FREDERICK KRUMM = The late Frederick Krumm was born August 14, 1840, anddied July 30, 1899, at his residence 1117 East Broad street, Columbus,Ohio, after an illness of three days. He left to his family thevaluable legacy of a good name won as a soldier, a business man, apublic official and a citizen. He was born in Columbus and was therecarefully educated in all useful branches under the direction of hisfather. The grandfather of our subject, J. Martin Krumm, was bornSeptember 24, 1784, a died at Columbus on the 4th of February, 1864. Hewas chief magistrate of Bronnweiler, Wurtemberg, Germany, and was acapable schoolmaster there until he came to America, and after locatingat Columbus was a public-spirited citizen, taking part in all efforts toadvance the city materially and socially.
    Martin Krumm, the father of our subject, was born April5, 1812 anddied August 4, 1869, in Columbus. He came to America in 1832, and atColumbus established a manufactory of steel and brass machinery, andiron fences, which became known as one of the largest and most importantfactories of the city. He became prominent in musical circles and wasthe organizer, in 1848, of the Maennerchor, which was for years theleading musical society of the city, artistically and socially, and itsgolden anniversary was celebrated in October, 1898. He marriedFredericka, Fichtner, who was born in Gottenweiler, Wurtemberg, June 27,1820, a daughter of Johann and his wife Maria Kurtz. Mrs. Krumm, whosefather lived and died in Germany, is now living in Columbus, in hereightieth year, well and active. Like here husband, she was musical,and they were for several years members of the choir of the St. Paul'sGerman Evangelical Luthern church, at the corner of High and Mountstreets, Columbus. The subject of this sketch was their eldest child,the others being: Martin, who succeeded his father in the manufacture ofmachinery and iron fences; Alexander W. and Albert, well known lawyersof Columbus; Daniel, who is associated with Martin in his manufacturingenterprise and is also a maker of violins; Flora, who married Dr. A. M.Blaile, of Columbus, professor of physiology in the Ohio StateUniversity; and Louis A. of Columbus.
    Frederick Krumm was graduated in the Columbus high school and wasemployed in his father's office until, in 1861, he enlisted in theThirty-seventh Regiment, Ohio Volunteer Infantry, under General C. C.Walcott, and served gallantly for two years, during most of which timeMr. Krumm was lieutenant and captain of Company D. He bears the scar ofa slight wound on the arm as a reminder of the days when he bore arms indefense of the Union. After leaving the army he engaged in dry-goodsmerchandise in Columbus. In 1866 he married Miss Cornelia Zettler, ofColumbus and some ten years later removed to Shawnee, Ohio where he wasa mine operator and general merchant until 1880, suffering thevicissitudes of business in those years, added to which was the totaldestruction of a plant owned by him by firm. Thus crippled financially,he returned to Columbus and for seven years was superintendent of publicschool buildings as was for three terms a member of the school board.Eventually he became a member of the firm of Dauben, Krumm & Riebel,architects, and had personal charge of the original construction of theGreat Southern hotel. During the closing years of his life he was inthe queensware trade.
    He was always active, energetic, and ambitious, faithful in all theaffairs of life and courteous, liberal and charitable to an uncommondegree. He was a leader in social circles and like all his familyprominent in musical organizations, both vocal and instrumental.Possessing a baritone voice of remarkable strength and purity, whichwas often referred to by critics as the equal of any in America, he heldhigh rank as a singer, was a leader in several choral organizations andoften appeared in concert for social and charitable institutions, towardthe success of which he was always a willing contributor in that way.He was a member of several of the earlier orchestras organized atColumbus, was for forty years a member of the Maennerchor, was a chartermember of the Orpheus Club, was a member of the Arion Musical Society,was a leading spirit in the Krumm-Lippert quartette and was for manyyears a member of the quartette of the First Congregational church.
    Always a close student of all public and economic questions, he wasunusually well informed concerning every political problem, and havingonce made up his mind on any question of public policy he was outspokenand unchangeable in his opinion concerning it. This strict adherence towhat he thought was right concerning the money question led him into theDemocratic ranks, and he was assistant postmaster under PresidentCleveland, and was prominent in political campaigns as a leader of theDemocratic glee clubs and was a charter member of the Gold and SilverLeague of Columbus. He was a member of the board of trustees of theOhio State Savings and Loan Associations from its organization until hisdeath.
