Lovely sleuthing there, 7,35 Carcano. The last paragraph of his Obit has few tid-bits of info. I do wonder what his major complaint might have been that led to his demise??
>>Josef Seifert came from an old Pressburg patrician family. His grandfather was a native of Pressburg. His father founded a grocery business on Spitalgasse in 1840; the son took it over in 1878 before establishing himself at the Tischlertor in 1883. Josef Seifert was born in Pressburg on March 19, 1848. He completed his secondary education (*Realschule*) in Pressburg and then business school in Vienna, serving as a one-year volunteer in an infantry regiment. In 1878, Josef Seifert married Marie Froz, his now deeply grieving widow. Two sons were born of this exceptionally happy marriage: Rudolf, who passed away a few years ago; Karl, the head of the flourishing business; and a daughter, Mariska, who is married to City Councilor Fritz Gagnodini.<<
