Jacob Frantz and the Millworkers
Submitted by Lola L. Allen,
great granddaughter of Israel S. Frantz. Photographs from the collection
of Glenda Good Calkins, great granddaughter of Jacob and Hannah Houser Frantz
Jacob Frantz owned and operated the Rossmoyne Flouring Mills in Rossmoyne, PA. Later, the Mill was operated by his sons. There's a lengthy history of the
Frantz family in the book Indiana County, Pennsylvania, Her People Past and Present, Embracing a History of the
County, Volume II, p. 1081-1084.
Jacob Frantz is believed to be sitting in the center of the front row as well.
The other men are probably a combination of Jacob's son and Mill workers.
Photo from a tintype probably taken around 1880-1900.
Click on any of the men to enlarge that portion of the photograph.
