| MKI Annotation | ergänzenden / August F. W. Partz was born in Germany on January 7, 1821 or 1822, and immigrated to the United States in 1849. A mineralogical chemist and geologist, he worked as a mining engineer for the Mamakating Mine in New York, was an assistant editor of Mining Magazine, and was an inventor with several patents. In 1864, he intended to travel to Santa Fe, New Mexico, to explore another mining opportunity, but he elected not to travel beyond Quincy, Illinois, because of guerilla fighting in Missouri and Kansas. In 1870, Partz lived in Oakland, California; he later lived in Philadelphia, Pennsylvania. He and his wife Julia had at least two children, Julius and Constanza. August F. W. Partz died on October 4, 1908. |
