Though not as well known as some of their contemporaries brewing partners Henry Anthony and Francis Kuhn were still major players in the nineteenth-century St. Louis beer business. While the brewery where they flourished was
located in Soulard, their original location was at the crosstown Philadelphia ...Brewery.
Henry Anthony's first job related to the local beer business was as a maltster in partnership with William Linze.
The latter had briefly been a co-owner of the Philadelphia Brewery at Twenty-Sixth and Morgan Streets While at the Philadephia Brewery, Anthony became a partner with William Oberschelp
shortly after the Civil War. Francis Kuhn replaced Oberschelp as Anthony's junior partner in 1867
Kuhn was born in the city of Phalsbourg, province of
Lorraine, France, in 1837. Upon leaving school at age fifteen, he began serving a three-year apprenticeship, without pay, at a banking house in his hometown, after which he relocated to Paris
In 1859, Kuhn and his parents migrated to St. Louis. The Kuhns must have been a fairly well-to-do family, as they bought Francis's way out of the draft for the French army, spending twenty-four hundred francs to hire a substitute in order to satisfy their long-cherished wish of coming to America
For the next eight years, Kuhn demonstrated his business acumen, first by successfully serving as business manager of soap/candle/lard oil manufacturer, then by working for
woodenware maker, and next by operating a restaurant. Why he decided to enter the beer business is unclear, but it proved to be
a wise carcer change Anthony and Kuhn kept the old Philadelphia Brewery tag for a couple of years but then started doing business under the
Anthony & Kuhn brewery name
