3859 Kosciusko St. Alfred & Lena's Home.


This map of St. Louis will give you a glimpse of where the Froehly household lived in south St. Louis in 1912. Along the river you will see a small red baloon with an "A" that denotes the location of the house. Keep in mind that the city was much smaller at this time.

Many Germans came to live in south St. Louis back then. As a result, quite a few brewery's sprang up in the surrounding area. There was the Lemp brewery, Falstaff Brewery, and the Anheuser-Busch Brewery.
