The Nadler brothers have aided in pushing forward the wheels of progress in Amsterdam and stand high in the regard of the residents of the city which has always been their home. Joseph Nadler was born August 21, 1880, a son of John and Anna Nadler, who immigrated from Germany to the United States. He received a public school education and his initial experience along business lines was gained in the mill of Stephen Sanford & Sons. He was afterward employed in a grocery store and in 1903, in association with his brother, Daniel F. Nadler, established a creamery and milk depot in Amsterdam. Their first establishment was a small one but under their expert direction the business has grown rapidly, and the firm of Nadler Brothers has outdistanced all competitors in this field. Their plant is equipped with modern machinery and their product is of the highest grade, handled under perfect sanitary conditions. Every detail of the business has been carefully planned and a notable degree of efficiency has been obtained in its operation.
On November 18, 1914, Mr. Joseph Nadler was married to Miss Anna Katherine Rector, a daughter of James Rector, a resident of the town of Florida. Mr. and Mrs. Nadler have two sons: Robert Joseph, who was born March 5, 1916; and Earl Donald, born February 16, 1921. Mr. Nadler gives his political support to the republican party because of his belief that its principles will best conserve the interests of good government. He represented the fifth ward in the common council from 1913 until 1917, inclusive, and his service as an alderman was of much benefit to the city. The firm is identified with the Amsterdam board of trade and Mr. Nadler is a member of the Benevolent Protective Order of Elks. He is keenly interested in everything that touches the welfare of his city, and a large circle of friends testifies to his personal popularity.
