From page 420, Quincy And Adams County, History And Representative Men, David F. Wilcox, published by Lewis Publishing Company, Chicago, Illinois, 1919:

Henry Freiburg, born October 18, 1835, in Allendorf, Westphalia, was a shoemaker and came to Quincy in 1856, worked as a journeyman at his trade until 1862, when he opened a shoe store, which he conducted until 1879. In 1882 he started a shoe factory, an enterprise which promised success. But soon the competition of the large factories became too strong and Henry Freiburg had to give up. Then he started the Crispin Shoe Factory, doing custom and repair work, an enterprise which, since the death of Henry Freiburg, June 21, 1917, is continued by the son Joseph B. C. Freiburg. January 21, 1862, Henry Freiburg married Josephine Meyer, a daughter of the old German pioneer Christopher Meyer. Their sons are: Joseph, Christopher and Alphons Freiburg; daughters: Veronica, wife of Joseph Geers; Maria, wife of Bernard Brinks; Agnes, wife of Lawrence Wavering; Rosa, single; and Ledwina, wife of Joseph Adrian, Martinsburg, Missouri.

Also, a paragraph from the biography of his son Joseph, in the same book:

Mr. [Joseph B. C.] Freiburg was born December 14, 1862, at 717 Maine Street, in the same block where he now has his business. His parents were Henry and Josephine (Meyer) Freiburg, the latter a native of Quincy. His father was born in Westphalia, Germany, and was the first member of his family to come to America. He traveled by sailing vessel to New Orleans, and later located at Quincy, where he resumed his trade as shoemaker. He conducted a shop and was active in his work steadily until five days before his death, which occurred June 21, 1917, when he was past eight-two years of age. His widow is still living at Quincy, where they were married. She was born on Hampshire Street between Eighth and Ninth streets, this city, of German parentage. Her mother died here when ninety-six years of age. All the family were active Catholics. Henry and Josephine Freiburg had the following children: Joseph B. C.; Christian, of Quincy; Verona, wife of Joseph Geers, of Quincy; Mary, wife of Barney Brinks, of Quincy; Alphonse, of Quincy; Agnes, wife of Lawrence Wavering, of Quincy; Rose; Ledvina, wife of Joseph Adrian, of Martinsburg, Missouri; and five who are deceased.
