Schuylkill County, Pennsylvania; genealogy--family history--biography; containing historical sketches of old families and of representative and prominent citizens, past and present, J. H. Beers, Chicago, 1916, Volume I, Page 317:

"Charles P. Alspach was born Oct. 5, 1877, in West Brunswick township, and attended the public schools of that locality. In his early years he was engaged at the calling of his ancestors, remaining on the home farm until eighteen years old. He then entered the employ of the Adams Shoe Company at Adamsdale, this county, and became thoroughly familiar with the shoe business during the six and a half years he remained there. For a short time following he was with the Kepner Scott Shoe Company at Orwigsburg, his next change being to the factory of H. S. Albright, at Orwigsburg, where he was employed for a period of eight years. Then, after a brief connection with Bickley & Walborn, he became interested in the organization of the Orwigsburg Shoe Company, in 1913, and has been president from the start. Though one of the new houses of the kind at Orwigsburg, the Orwigsburg Shoe Company is becoming well known in the trade, turning out a product of recognized reliability, which is winning popularity with salespeople and customers alike. The business is under capable management, and Mr. Alspach's comprehensive experience in the trade is proving exceedingly valuable as a guide in the discharge of his present responsibilities. Personally he is a man of the highest worth, and his standing is favorable with all who know him. He holds membership in the Independent Americans and in the P. O. S. of A., and belongs to the Reformed Church, in which he has been a prominent worker; for six years he held the office of deacon, and is now serving as elder.

Mr. Alspach married Emma Heim, daughter of Jonas Heim, of West Brunswick township, and they have one son, Marvin Heim Alspach. Mrs. Alspach is a Lutheran in religious connection."
