Description

Henry Erdman was a master builder elected to the Carpenters' Company of Philadelphia in 1817. Unfortunately there is scant information or records on Erdman. He was listed in the 1814 directory as a carpenter residing at 35 Chester street. In 1820 and again in 1824, Erdman was listed on Castle street.
