CHARLES WALTER YUNGBLUT, a citizen of Dayton and a bright and
promising young attorney, whose office and principal business is in Cincinnati,
was born in Newport September 5, 1868. He is a son of John R and Anna (Sweitzer)
Yungblut, well known citizens of Dayton.
His father was born in Canton, Ohio in 1835 and was partly educated before leaving his native place. He came to Newport early in life and after serving his time as an apprentice in a drug store engaged in that business on his own account and was a successful druggist in Newport for a period of years. He is now retired and is living in Dayton. His ancestors came to this country from Belgium.
Annie Sweitzer Yungblut is a native of Lorraine, France, now a province in Germany. She was born in 1843 and came with her father's family to this country when she was a child. They lived for a time in Cincinnati and then removed to Newport. her father married a Miss Mignot of Lorraine.
Charles Walter Yungblut received his education in the public schools of Newport, graduating with honors in the class of 1887. He then began the study of law in the Cincinnati Law School, from which he was graduated in 1890, taking the forensic prize of his class. He at once opened his office in Cincinnati and in the five years or more of his professional career he has distinguished himself as a lawyer of ability, having already established a good business, which by careful attention and study and the wise and judicious management of his cases, has grown steadily in the number and importance of the cases entrusted to his care.
He was appointed city attorney of Dayton in 1893 and in that capacity has served the city in which he makes his home with credit to himself and with the approval of the people.
Mr. Yungblut is an ardent Republican and is one of the most prominent young men in local politics. Modest and unassuming, yet progressive in politics and law, he is steadily preparing the way for a brilliant and useful career.
