Biographical / Historical
Frederick Augustus Hihn (originally Hühn) was an early settler to Santa Cruz County and a
prominent businessman in the development of the City of Santa Cruz, from his arrival to the
area in 1851 to his death in 1913. He owned a range of businesses, including real estate,
water, lumber, and railroad companies. He also served in local Santa Cruz and state
politics.
Hihn was born in Holzminden, Germany, on August 16th, 1829, to a family with nine children.
His father was a merchant, and while in Germany, Hihn was educated in mercantilism and
business. He immigrated to California from Germany with two brothers for the Gold Rush on
the brig
Reform in 1849. After a short time in gold mining, Hihn returned to
Sacramento and opened a candy factory and store. However, that winter, the Sacramento River
flooded and destroyed his factory and store.
In 1851 Hihn moved to San Francisco and opened a small drugstore. However, the Great Fire
of May 1851 burned most of his stock and possessions, and what he managed to recoup was
burned in the June 1851 fire. As a result he came to Santa Cruz with a friend in October
1851, thinking the risk of fire would be lower, and set up a mercantile shop on the corner
of present-day Front Street and Pacific Street. In 1853 Hihn and Therese Paggen married, and
they had six children together.
Hihn was heavily involved in real estate development of Santa Cruz and the surrounding
areas, buying large tracts of land and developing them to be sold in smaller parcels. He
also founded the town of Capitola, and directed the construction of many of Santa Cruz's
current streets. Other business enterprises included railroad construction and operation,
the development of a wagon road across the Santa Cruz mountains. and the construction of the
cliff road from Santa Cruz to Capitola. Hihn was also involved in early water infrastructure
for Santa Cruz and the surrounding towns, banking, and the lumber industry, owning two
sawmills near Aptos and Laurel, California.
Hihn was a school trustee of Santa Cruz, served on the State Assembly for one term in 1869,
served as Santa Cruz Supervisor for six years, and was the Vice President of the Society of
California Pioneers. Hihn was also a founding trustee of California Polytechnic State
University (Cal Poly) in San Luis Obispo.
Hihn established the F.A. Hihn Company in 1890, and organized a corporation under the name
of the Company which bound together his children by mutual interest. Hihn's principal
attorney was Charles Bruce Younger. Hihn's daughter, Agnes Hihn, and Younger's son, C.B.
Younger Jr., were married, uniting the two families.
F.A. Hihn died at age 84 on August 23rd, 1913.
