Frederick W. Schumacher

He was noted for helping establish the Columbus Museum of Art, settling a town named Schumacher in Ontario, Canada, and for leading the successes as vice president of the Peruna Drug Manufacturing Company.

There he attended local public schools, but would travel to Europe between his academic years to visit family and study classical art and history.

In 1897, the couple moved from Waco to Columbus, taking up temporary residence in the Hartman home, and later, at 71 Winner Avenue.

In September of that year, Maribel filed for divorce, alleging that he failed to financially support her and their children for clothing travel expenses, and furnishings for their home.

[4] By 1950, Schumacher had two servants employed and regularly invited opera stars, bishops, and governors as guests, though he otherwise lived alone.

[10] Schumacher, as a patron of the Columbus Gallery of Fine Arts, was instrumental in the museum's construction, and permanently loaned many of his works to help establish the organization's collection.
