Notes:
Charles Godfrey Mueden (1838-1913)2 was a Washington DC merchant with
many different occupations over the years1, including brewing beer.
He's listed as owning a brewery at the corner of B and 5th Streets in 1866.
Then in 1867, he teamed up with
Edward Abner, a Saloon owner, and started the
Abner & Mueden brewery on NY Avenue. Abner & Mueden claimed all bottles and jugs marked
"G.F. Mueden", "C.G. Mueden", "Alex. Fegh", "P. Hohl", "A. Miller" and "A. Mueller".3
The partnership was short lived, as the 1868 directory has Abner back on his own, and
Mueden on his own as a Weiss beer brewer at a different address. The 1869 directory has Mueden
at still a different address, and the city directories in subsequent years list him as
having various other occupations at various Washington DC locations.
