Charles Weinberg was a prolific merchant in Colorado in the 1880s and 1890s. Originally a moderately successful liquor distributor in Leadville, Charles eventually founded a clothing emporium in Cripple Creek prior to departing the state for New York in the early 1900s.

Born to Levi/Levy and Augusta Seligsohn Weinberg [1] in Germany in 1848, [2] Charles was the middle child of three boys. His two brothers were Selig (born 1840) [3] and Louis (born 1851). [4] Charles claimed in his passport application that he arrived in the US in 1863, [5] which is corroborated by his military service in the US Civil War. [6] Charles served in the war from 1863 to 1864 under the alias Charles Winbeck and obtained the rank of colonel [7] or major. [8] According to his pension index, Charles’ unit was dispersed to North Carolina, Tennessee, “Wabash”, and “Princeton”. [9] Though it may seem unusual for recent Jewish immigrants to have participated in the conflict, historians Jonathan D. Sarna and Adam Mendelsohn estimate that 8,000 Jews fought during the Civil War [10] out of a total population of roughly 150,000, [11] whereas Donald Altschiller estimates 10,000. [12] In other words, between 5.3% and 6.6% of the Jewish population fought in the war, roughly half of the combat participation percentage of the remaining white population in the United States. [13]

After the war’s end, Charles made his way to Missouri where he married his first wife, Mina Stunkel, on October 18, 1871. [14] The couple divorced by at least 1874, the year Charles married to his second wife, Antoinette Broemser (later spelled Brenner), also in Missouri. [15] Antoinette’s birthyear is estimated as 1850 and, like Charles, she was a German immigrant. [16] The couple may have lived in Kansas prior to moving to Colorado, although sources supporting this are inconclusive.

The Weinbergs first settled in Lake City upon their arrival in Colorado, but the exact year is unknown. [17] Charles and Antoinette were among some of the earliest settlers in Leadville after its incorporation, arriving in the city by early 1879. [18] Charles had made a business arrangement with Jewish Leadville resident Louis Sonshine [19] prior to his arrival to open a liquor distribution business in the city. [20] Their store’s first advertisement appeared in the Leadville Evening Chronicle on March 5, 1879, announcing the opening on March 10 at 27½ Harrison Avenue. [21] The pair later transformed their business briefly from distribution into a saloon. [22]

The Sonshine & Weinberg liquor business in Leadville was not especially prolific nor long-lived. Advertisements and city directory listings ceased after 1881 and its final reference in local newspapers was a court case between Sonshine & Weinberg and a Samuel Schneider in 1883. [23] Sonshine left Colorado soon after the business closed, but the Weinberg family remained in the state for twenty more years.

There is some confusion over Charlie's relatives in Leadville between 1879 and 1881. The 1880 US Census recorded Charles alone living in a boarding house with Louis Sonshine. [24] However, a separate census shows a Nettie Weinberg, her son Fred Weinberg, and daughter B. Washburn living at a separate residence. [25] Because Nettie is a shortened form of Antoinette, the vital records in the census closely match Antoinette Broemser’s other vital records. Nettie Weinberg was almost certainly Antoinette, and Fred was her's and Charles’ child. Whether Antoinette was Fred’s biological mother (or Charles the biological father) is yet unclear because if Fred's reported birth year of 1867 is accurate, this would be seven years before Antoinette's marriage to Charles. Nettie’s reported daughter, B. Washburn, born in Kansas in 1874, is yet another mystery as she does not appear in any sources after the 1880 census. Finally, Charles’ brother Louis did hold shares in various mining properties in Lake County in 1880 but did not appear in city directories as a permanent resident. [26] Louis also appears as a liquor dealer in the 1880 US Census in Lake City, Colorado. [27]

While the Weinberg family did not find a great deal of success in the Leadville liquor business, their prospects in Aspen and Cripple Creek were more lucrative. Charles became a manager of the O. K. Clothing Emporium at the former where he remained for nearly a decade. [28] The first notice of the family’s presence in Cripple Creek was the appearance of the Weinberg Clothing Company in a program for the Business Men’s Carnival published in The Morning Journal on October 23, 1894. [29] Despite owning a business in Cripple Creek, the Weinbergs seemed to maintain a presence or at least interests in Aspen for their remaining time in Colorado.

Charles and Antoinette adopted a daughter named Georgiana (shortened to Georgie or Georgy) sometime between the 1880 and 1885 US and Colorado censuses. Georgiana, born in 1875, went on to marry Elias Cohn on January 15, 1897 in Aspen. [31] According to an article in The Aspen Times published roughly six months before their marriage, the engagement between the young couple caused a degree of controversy among the Jewish community as the relationship was between a supposed gentile (Georgiana) and a Jew (Elias). [32] There is no further reference to this controversy in Aspen.

The majority of the Weinberg family relocated to New York in the early 1900s, when Charles and Fred worked at a business simply advertised as Frederic’s at 905 Broadway. [33] Charles and Antoinette’s final appearances in the US census was in 1910 and listed them as living in Manhattan. [34] Fred does not appear in their household.

According to a notice in Leadville’s Herald Democrat, Charles Weinberg died in New York in either late December 1910 or early January 1911. [35] It is not currently known where he was buried. The only confirmed grave for the Weinbergs is of Selig, the elder brother of Charles who, according to sources, never lived in Colorado. [36] The 1910 US Census recorded Elias and Georgiana Cohn still in Aspen with two daughters, Regina and Ruth. [37] Elias died in 1912 and is buried at Red Butte Cemetery in Aspen. [38] However, Georgiana’s grave is not located there. Her final listing in the 1920 US Census shows her living in Boulder with Ruth. [39]

Maurice Weinberg
Occupation: N/A
Born: N/A
Birthplace: N/A
Died: April 26, 1880

Apart from being buried in Leadville’s Hebrew Cemetery, [40] nothing else is known about Maurice Weinberg. The headstone only states that his date of death is April 26, 1880. It is possible that Maurice was in some way related to Charles and his family, but the name Weinberg was quite common in Colorado as well as across the United States. It is just as likely that Maurice Weinberg had no relation to them.

Jacob Weinberg
Occupation: Clerk
Born: N/A
Birthplace: N/A
Died: N/A

Jacob Weinberg only appears in the 1880 Leadville City Directory, [41] which lists him working as a clerk at Joseph E. Shoenberg’s [42] clothing store. There is no further information on Jacob’s time in Leadville and no evidence that he was related to any of the other Weinbergs in Leadville.

13 These numbers are rough estimates based on a variety of secondary and primary source comparisons. The generally accepted number of African Americans who took part in the war as soldiers was around 180,000 and entirely enlisted by the Union. The white population of the US per the 1860 census was 26,850,000 (omitting the Jewish population number) but was likely skewed by the coming war. Accounting for African American and Jewish participation, the remaining number of white soldiers in the war was roughly 2,760,000 to 3,010,000. This equates to white participation in the war at roughly 10%-11% of their total population.
