A. GRENIER. A leading and nourishing general mercantile
house is that of A. A. Grenier, at Trinway, Ohio, and it is
needless to add that Mr. Grenier thoroughly
understands every branch of the business,and is able to give his
patrons the benefit of thevery best experience. He was born in this
countyJuly 29, 1866, to Frederick and Mary (Uffenberger) Grenier,
who were born in Germany in 1838 and 1839 respectively, and came to
the United States in childhood, locating with their parents in
Muskingum county, Ohio, the father being now a farmer of Madison
township. In this township A. A. Grenier was reared,
and while assisting his father in tilling the home farm he imbibed
those principles of probity and honor which have since been among
his chief characteristics. He obtained a common-school
education and remained with and assisted his father until 1887, when
he engaged in his present business, and now carries a stock of goods
valued at $4,000, and in 1890 did a business of $13,000. He
has made his own way in life, is a cautious yet enterprising
business man, and his experience thus far in life has been of the
most thoroughgoing character. June 11, 1888, he was appointed
postmaster of Trinway, and this office acceptably fills. He
was reappointed Feb. 1, 1892; now is doing a money-order and
postal-note business.
