Louis Schreiber, Jr., son of Louis and Emma Schreiber, was born January 9, 1878, in Columbus. His father was born in 1851, in Germany, and immigrated to this country as a young man. He came to Columbus in 1876, where he established an implement business. Besides farm machinery wagons at that time were a big business item. Louis Schreiber, Sr., was also a well-known blacksmith here. He was married in Columbus, and died May 20, 1909.

Louis, Jr., had one brother and one sister: Emma and Otto, deceased. Emma was married in 1910 to Walter Miessler, son of the Reverend and Mrs. Herman Miessler, of Columbus; Otto was married to Adria Lay. He was an accomplished violinist.

Louis, Jr., attended the Columbus grade and high schools and became interested in pharmacy through Charles E. Pollock, in whose drug store he worked for two years. Charles E. Pollock was a pioneer druggist who then operated the Pollock Drug Store at the northwest corner of Thirteenth and North Streets, where Fricke and Fleisher now have their drug business. Louis Schreiber, Jr., attended the College of Pharmacy at the University of Illinois, and was graduated there in 1900. Following his graduation he worked at McCook, Nebraska, Platte Center, Nebraska, then came to Columbus and there worked in the old Hoehen Drug Store. He later spent four years in Cedar Bluffs, Nebraska.

On June 30, 1909, he was married to Emma Ranslem, at Cedar Bluffs, and shortly after their marriage, they located in Columbus, where Mr. Schreiber was employed for eleven years at the Dack Drug Store. In 1922, he and Eugene T. Miessler bought the store from Charles Dack, and a year later, Louis Schreiber sold his interest to E. T. Miessler. From 1924 to 1929, Mr. Schreiber worked for the Harley Drug Company, in Lincoln. In October, 1929, he returned to Columbus, and worked at the Fricke Drug Company until the early 1940's.

Louis Schreiber, Jr., was a life-long member of the Immanuel Lutheran Church, and a charter member of the Sixty Schoolmate Club, in which he took an active interest. He died June 24, 1943. Mrs. Louis Schreiber lives in Columbus.
