| Additional Information: | 332 Lincoln Street Leonard and Bertha Emmerling-Bernard Froehlich House This one-and-one-half-story frame Bungalow was built in 1917 (date spelled out in colored pebbles in the foundation). The house has a random rubble foundation, narrow clapboards on the first story, and wood shingles in the gable ends and on the pair of gabled dormers that site on the front slope of the roof. The dormers also have single and paired brackets with knee braces. There is a front-gabled, full-facade front porch with stuccoed, closed rails, stuccoed piers and brackets with kneed braces. Other details include exposed rafters, multipaned windows, and a polygonal side bay window. The house was built for Leonard and Bertha Emmerling. Leonard Emmerling (1866-?) was born in Germany and immigrated to the U. S. in 1888, settling in Rhinelander (History of Lincoln, Oneida and Vilas Counties, p. 252). He worked in the J. C. Prentzlow Meat Market until circa 1903, when he opened his own meat market (Wisconsin State Gazetteers). The Emmerlings lived in the house until at least 1930 (Rhinelander City Directories). Bernard Froehlich was another long-time resident of the house, here from at least 1936 until at least 1965 (Rhinelander City Directories). |
