WILLIAM HONECKER,
proprietor of one of the leading drug stores in
Lorain, is a son of Rev. John Honecker, a
retired minister of the German Evangelical Church,
and a native of Germany. He married Miss
Christina Jordan, and twelve children were the
result of their union, of whom our subject is one of
twins, the other (Abraham) being a druggist
in Cleveland. It is said the twin brothers
resemble each other very strongly.
William Honecker, whose name introduces this
sketch, was born in Columbus, Ohio, in 1862, and
received his literary education in the public
schools. In 1887 he graduated from the
Cincinnati (Ohio) College of Pharmacy, after which
he at once located in Cleveland, in company with his
twin brother, they having established a drug store
there, which they carried on till 1888, when
William sold out his interest therein to his
brother, and removed to Lorain, where he opened his
present drug establishment, in the conducting of
which he has met with more than average success.
To some extent he is interested in real estate.
Mr. Honecker was united in marriage with Miss
Mary Stone, and he and his wife are members of
the German Evangelical Church. In his
political predilections our subject is a Republican.
