HENRY BROSCHART (1849-1913), the genial and popular landlord of the "Auld House," Washington, was born December 17, 1849, in the town of Permesence, Germany, of which country his father was also a native, born in 1820. Henry Broschart came with the family to the United States, and here he was reared to manhood and educated. His first business was lumbering in Forest, Clarion, and Jefferson Counties, Penn., and then he went into the oil country where he kept hotel until 1885, in which year he moved to Washington, this county. Here he conducted the "Rush House" for one and one half years, and then leased the "Auld House" which he manages with well-merited success. On June 19, 1878, Mr. Broschart was united in marriage with LENA SMITH (1857-1939), daughter of Valentine Smith of Sullivan County, Penn., and the children born to them were Helen, Ernest, Leo, Paul, and Clara, the last named being deceased. Mr. Broschart has lately been interested in an extensive glass industry at Redkey, Ind. He is a sound Democrat, and in religion is a member of the Catholic Church. They are buried in Riverside Cemetery, Gas city, Indiana.
