The alleged son of German-born Jacques or Jacob Frederick H. & M. Salomea Sarah (Schneider) Householder or Haushalter, in 1860 he was a mason living in Chambersburg, Franklin County, Pennsylvania. He stood 6' 0" tall and had brown hair and gray eyes.

A Civil War veteran, he served two terms of service:
1. Enlisted at the stated age of twenty-two, mustered into state service at Chambersburg September 14, 1862, as a private with Eyster's independent Militia Company, and honorably discharged with his company October 15, 1862. The experience was as uneventful as it was brief.
2. Enlisted at the stated age of twenty at Chambersburg September 13, 1864, mustered into federal service that day as a private with Co. D, 210th Pennsylvania Infantry, and honorably discharged with his company May 30, 1865.

His obituary in the Chambersburg Public Opinion (shown here) asserts he served with the 126th Pennsylvania Infantry and no other regiment, a claim verified by no military data source.

He married Sarah Z. Cook and fathered Estella North (b. 02/04/74 - married George M. Reber, Wheeler H. Phelps, and Elmier James Yocum). By 1880, he was living with his family in Harrisburg, where he worked as a police officer and he is in the census as "Frederick." He died only a week after Sarah reportedly from "albuminuria and complications."

His obituaries refer to him as "Frederick." Why he is buried by the German form of his name is unknown as he apparently did not go by that throughout his life.
