CONRAD ZILCH. One of the younger business men of Amherst who has distinguished himself by a remarkable amount of progressiveness and enterprise is Conrad Zilch, who is an expert undertaker and embalmer and is manager of the principal undertaking and furniture house of the city.
He has reached an independent position in business affairs when only a little more than thirty years of age. He was born in Brownhelm Township of Lorain County February 18, 1885, a son of Henry C. and Mary (Hildebrand) Zilch. Both parents were natives of Germany and his grandparents all died in that country. His grandfather, George Zilch, reached the venerable age of ninety-two years. The maternal grandparents both died at the age of forty-nine from typhoid fever. Henry C. Zilch was born in 1850 and died January 29, 1899. His wife was born May 4, 1852, and is still living. They came to this country when young people and were married in Brownhelm Township. Henry C. Zilch was a very industrious man and for a number of years worked as a quarryman and died from stonecutter's consumption. By hard work he established a home, provided for his large family of children, and had a good thirty-acre farm all paid for before his death. He was a democrat and he and his wife members of the Methodist Episcopal Church. Of their nine children eight are still living: Werner, in the grocery business at Brownhelm; Anna, wife of E. C. Waugh, in the transfer business at Lorain; George J., a farmer in Brownhelm; Conrad; Rose E., who was deaf and dumb and was graduated from the Deaf and Dumb Institue, and a few years ago was killed in an automobile and street car accident; Marie is the wife of Elmer Fulmer, a farmer in Eaton Township; Benjamin, in the automobile business of Lorain; Katie, wife of William Grobe of Amherst; and Amelia, who has a clerical position in Elyria. Mrs. Henry Zilch married for her first husband John Miller, and their two sons, Carl and William J. Miller, are successful farmers in Brownhelm Township.
After his early education, acquired in the district and high schools of Brownhelm Township, Conrad Zilch found employment on a farm, and then laid the foundation of his business career by experience in the furniture business with the Wickens Company at Lorain. He also studied embalming at Cleveland under P. A. Hayden. After three years of work in his profession and in the business at Lorain, he established the Amherst Furniture Company on May 1, 1913. He is secretary and manager of this concern, and has been the mainspring of its very prosperous career since establishment.
