"Hoehn was both undertaker and furniture dealer, a combination common in 19th century America. Later, when this residence became Farmer's and Merchant's Bank, one of its rusticated brick pilasters and two arched windows were removed to make one large elliptical arched window. Next door to the north was Hoehn's two-story frame furniture store, now clad in a brick veneer with a Mediterranean touch." A Walk Through Yesterday in Cedarburg
