  • Notes 
    • Catherine Klinck Hastings, August's daughter, talked with me a few years before she died, about growing up in Elmira. She remembered that her father August, who was a carpenter, had carved the ornate sides Christian Dreisinger's first motor hearse. In those early 1900s days, funeral home owners sometimes made their own hearses; perhaps because some were also carpenters. Christian Dreisinger wasn't a carpenter but family history about Dreisinger Funeral Home was that Christian had done the woodwork on his first hearse. Catherine expressed annoyance that her dad didn't receive the credit he was due for his fine work.
