Here are some new bits of information that I have found about my gg-grandfather Lorenzo Dow Weinhart.
- In 1902 he purchased $1,940 worth of poultry (he was in the poultry and eggs business)
- The picture shows two of his business advertisments along with ads from other businesses in Ankeny, Iowa
- On December 12,1902 Lorenzo along with 10 other Ankeny citizens had a notice published in the Ankeny Times asking for a public meeting to discuss incorporating Ankeny as a town
- Lorenzo was the fourth mayor of Ankeny (1910) after it became a town in 1903
