I'm trying to get information on my dad's father's business in Mobile, AL His name was Herman Bernhardt and wife Missouri Chesser. His business was Piano Repair. The business was at 557 Dauphin Street. They had an apartment upstairs where my dad Harry Bernhardt lived after his birth in 1922. I was able to visit the area today May 17, 2026. 555 and 557 are joined now. The apartment that was above his business is now the restaurants outdoor eating area. It would be awesome if anyone has any information on The Bernhardt piano repair business. Mr. Bernhardt also made personal violins and doll house furniture. He was of German ancestry.
