On the record

Julia E. Emanuel was a daughter of Dr. Appeles D. Emanuel, a physician and surgeon of Paulding County who died in 1876, and Emma C. (Kauffman) Emanuel; after her father’s death her mother conducted a drugstore in his former office building at Antwerp, and there the daughter gained her first practical knowledge of pharmacy. She entered the University of Michigan and was graduated in the class of 1889 with the degree of Pharmaceutical Chemist. In 1892 she came to Fort Wayne and for ten years was employed in the prescription department of the Meyer Brothers drugstore. In 1902 she established her own business as a pharmacist, first in the Arcade Building, and in 1907 she removed to 201 West Berry Street, at the corner of Berry and Harrison, where her store traded as the Chemist Shop, with a prescription department and lines of drugs, chemicals, toilet articles and druggists’ sundries.
