From: Ohio Biographical Sketches, 1876
Name: Charles William Horr
Manufacturer, was born in Avon, Lorain county, Ohio, January 25th, 1837. He entered college at Oberlin, Ohio, in 1856, and in 1860 graduated from the Antioch College. He was then engaged for one year in teaching in the Union Schools of Vandalia, Illinois, and at the expiration of that time entered the army as Captain in the 35th Regiment of Illinois Volunteer Infantry. He received his commission from the Governor of Illinois in 1861. At the close of a period of eighteen months he resigned his commission and commenced operating in stocks. About the termination of the rebellion he erected, in conjunction with his brother, the first cheese factory in northern Ohio. Since his entry into this business he has continued to sustain it with energy and success, and the house in which he is now a partner is at the present time the largest manufacturer of cheese and butter in the United States. His house is known under the style of Bramm & Horr. He is a Director of the Savings Bank of Elyria, and of the First National Bank of Wellington. Although admitted to the bar in Columbus in 1864 by the Supreme Court, he has never practised his profession, but devoted his time and attention entirely to his manufacturing business. By careful management he has accumulated considerable property, and gained a leading position by his unswerving integrity amid his fellow-townsmen. Politically, he is a liberal Republican. He was married in 1860 to Esther A. Lang, of Huntington, Ohio, daughter of Rev. Mr. Lang.
