Notes:
    Charles P. Jacobsen was born in Baltimore on May 1, 1860. Charles was the son of Captain Hermann Jacobsen, who married Christian Heurich's sister Elisabeth, which makes Charles the nephew of Christian Heurich. Charles was employed at Heurich's brewery as a boy, and later founded and was president of the Arlington Bottling Company, which bottled Heurich's beers. ²
    Besides being president of the Arlington Bottling company, Jacobsen was President of the Frazee Potomac Laundry Company, the first dealer in Ford Automobiles in Washington (1901), owner of the Hotel Sterling, and in his later years was the vice-president of the Christian Heurich Brewing Company. ²
    The website for the Sterling Laundry Co had this to say (it has since been removed):
    Mr. Charles P. Jacobsen worked for his uncle- Christian Heurich in the early 1900's and built the Arlington Bottling Company in Georgetown, at 1021 27th St. N.W. In 1930, Sterling Laundry Co., Inc., was incorporated under the laws of the District of Columbia by the then 70 year old Charles Jacobsen. The laundry took over the bottling area of the plant. The business was then turned over to two of his sons: Eugene and Charles. In 1946 after he had left the USMC, Eugene Jr. (Randy) took over as President. Sterling enjoyed increased success under Randy Jacobsen. In 1962 the building at 1021 27th St. had to be torn down to make way for part of the present Whitehurst Freeway.

One of the Potomac Pontil newsletters has a letter from a descendent of Jacobsen's that explains how he was related to Christian Heurich and gives some other information.

A 1907 newspaper ad lists "Arnold & Co.'s India Pale Ale" from Arlington Bottling Co, 27th & K sts NW, Phone West 34 or 120.

The book says the building has a large space on the ground floor of 25x130 feet, covered by a substantial brick building, with steam bottle-washing machines, immense vats for steaming beer for export, rotary fans driven by steam power, and other improvements. It also says that the capcity of the works is 800 boxes of two dozen bottles per day, and requires 25 hands and eight wagons to deliver. 3
