Jacob Schoen's Death Cause Wide Sorrow
Third District Pioneer Whose Life and Charity Furnish a Noble Example
One of the best-known residents of the Third District, a citizen who counted his friend by the hundreds, because of his geniality, kindness of disposition and innate gentleness of charter, Mr. Jacob Schoen, who had been engaged in the undertaking business for many years, died yesterday at his residence, No. 3015 Royal Street, near Montegut Street. He succumbed to an illness which had practically kept him an invalid for fifteen months, but which, although lasting so long, did not alter his cheerfulness and fortitude. To the last he maintained his wonted calm and pleasing demeanor and after sinking into a gentle slumber in the early hours Tuesday morning, he lapsed into the sleep that opens the gates of immortality. Mr. Schoen was born June 8, 1841 at Ziglach, Darmsdadt Germany. He received a plain education in his native town and at an early age immigrated to America. He landed at New Orleans on 29th of December 1859, and engaged in the longshoreman business. In a few years, by dint of thrift and industry, he had amassed enough money to enter into partnership with Phillip Levy, who was then the foremost stevedore in New Orleans. Mr. Schoen kept at that occupation for several years and changed to another business. He opened a carriage and livery establishment in partnership with A.L. Frantz until 1874 when he bought out the business of undertaker Jacob Klees deceased, and in partnership with Mr. Frantz opened at #155 (old number) North Peters St. In 1885 Frantz and Schoen purchased the business of John Grayer at numbers 35,37, 39 Elysian Fields in June of 1897. Mr. Schoen acquired Mr. Frantz's interest in the firm and admitted his son Philip J. Schoen as his partner in the now well-known firm of Jacob Schoen and Son. From that time on Mr. Schoen increased his trade and by his sociable and pleasant ways, became very popular. He was prominently connected with about twenty associations-- social, benevolent fraternal and religious and occupied many positions of trust and honor in several of them. He was a devout Catholic always giving evidence of a warm heart and generous hand especially in the interest of the Church and the orphans.
In 1884 Mr. Schoen visited his birthplace, after an absence of 25 years. He often traveled in this country and was familiar with almost every large city on the U.S.
He was essentially a self made man. Beginning active life with a dollar, he was attentive to business and exercised those faculties, which enable men to succeed in whatever they engage. So that in the twilight of life he was in comfortable circumstances and was able to help all those deserving of assistance. He was a liberal contributor to all institutions of charity and in all matters pertaining to the welfare of the church or education and to the public good and progress and development of the city.
Mr. Schoen was thrice married. His first wife was Ms. Henrietta Loerbick. Of that union five children were born, Phillip J. Schoen, John T. Schoen, a daughter now Mrs. Widow Frank Fossi?, another daughter now Mrs. Louis F. Leonhardt, and a third daughter Miss. Maggie Schoen. His second marriage with Ms. Barbara Sporl was blessed with three offspring, Miss Barbara Schoen, Miss Lulu Schoen, and Louis Schoen. The third marriage with Minnie Tippenhauer was sterile.
The news of the death of Mr. Schoen spread quickly throughout the Third District and hundreds sorrowing and sympathetic friends and acquaintances hastened to the residents to offer condolences and their services. All-day and far into the night there was a constant stream of callers representing all classes and conditions. Men prominent in commercial, social, benevolent and political circles made a pious duty to visit the house of mourning and gave expression of their regret at the death of such a good and useful citizen. Sisters of Charity and little orphans from the asylums in Second and Third Districts came during the afternoon and stood for a few minutes in the flower laden parlor which the body of their benefactor lay in state in a handsome coffin, and they knelt down and offered up fervent prayers for the repose of the soul of the kind gentleman who was ever prompt without solicitation to bestow largely in the cause of charity.
The funeral will take place from his late residence at 3 o'clock today. The remains will be laid to rest in the St. Vincent de Paul cemetery and will be followed by more mourners than has gathered at any posequies in New Orleans in many a day.

Jacob Schoen's Death Cause Wide Sorrow
Third District Pioneer Whose Life and Charity Furnish a Noble Example
One of the best-known residents of the Third District, a citizen who counted his friend by the hundreds, because of his geniality, kindness of disposition and innate gentleness of charter, Mr. Jacob Schoen, who had been engaged in the undertaking business for many years, died yesterday at his residence, No. 3015 Royal Street, near Montegut Street. He succumbed to an illness which had practically kept him an invalid for fifteen months, but which, although lasting so long, did not alter his cheerfulness and fortitude. To the last he maintained his wonted calm and pleasing demeanor and after sinking into a gentle slumber in the early hours Tuesday morning, he lapsed into the sleep that opens the gates of immortality. Mr. Schoen was born June 8, 1841 at Ziglach, Darmsdadt Germany. He received a plain education in his native town and at an early age immigrated to America. He landed at New Orleans on 29th of December 1859, and engaged in the longshoreman business. In a few years, by dint of thrift and industry, he had amassed enough money to enter into partnership with Phillip Levy, who was then the foremost stevedore in New Orleans. Mr. Schoen kept at that occupation for several years and changed to another business. He opened a carriage and livery establishment in partnership with A.L. Frantz until 1874 when he bought out the business of undertaker Jacob Klees deceased, and in partnership with Mr. Frantz opened at #155 (old number) North Peters St. In 1885 Frantz and Schoen purchased the business of John Grayer at numbers 35,37, 39 Elysian Fields in June of 1897. Mr. Schoen acquired Mr. Frantz's interest in the firm and admitted his son Philip J. Schoen as his partner in the now well-known firm of Jacob Schoen and Son. From that time on Mr. Schoen increased his trade and by his sociable and pleasant ways, became very popular. He was prominently connected with about twenty associations-- social, benevolent fraternal and religious and occupied many positions of trust and honor in several of them. He was a devout Catholic always giving evidence of a warm heart and generous hand especially in the interest of the Church and the orphans.
In 1884 Mr. Schoen visited his birthplace, after an absence of 25 years. He often traveled in this country and was familiar with almost every large city on the U.S.
He was essentially a self made man. Beginning active life with a dollar, he was attentive to business and exercised those faculties, which enable men to succeed in whatever they engage. So that in the twilight of life he was in comfortable circumstances and was able to help all those deserving of assistance. He was a liberal contributor to all institutions of charity and in all matters pertaining to the welfare of the church or education and to the public good and progress and development of the city.
Mr. Schoen was thrice married. His first wife was Ms. Henrietta Loerbick. Of that union five children were born, Phillip J. Schoen, John T. Schoen, a daughter now Mrs. Widow Frank Fossi?, another daughter now Mrs. Louis F. Leonhardt, and a third daughter Miss. Maggie Schoen. His second marriage with Ms. Barbara Sporl was blessed with three offspring, Miss Barbara Schoen, Miss Lulu Schoen, and Louis Schoen. The third marriage with Minnie Tippenhauer was sterile.
The news of the death of Mr. Schoen spread quickly throughout the Third District and hundreds sorrowing and sympathetic friends and acquaintances hastened to the residents to offer condolences and their services. All-day and far into the night there was a constant stream of callers representing all classes and conditions. Men prominent in commercial, social, benevolent and political circles made a pious duty to visit the house of mourning and gave expression of their regret at the death of such a good and useful citizen. Sisters of Charity and little orphans from the asylums in Second and Third Districts came during the afternoon and stood for a few minutes in the flower laden parlor which the body of their benefactor lay in state in a handsome coffin, and they knelt down and offered up fervent prayers for the repose of the soul of the kind gentleman who was ever prompt without solicitation to bestow largely in the cause of charity.
The funeral will take place from his late residence at 3 o'clock today. The remains will be laid to rest in the St. Vincent de Paul cemetery and will be followed by more mourners than has gathered at any posequies in New Orleans in many a day.
