Cleveland, Ohio musician, piano store owner, Republican politician and collector of Lincoln material, who was also known as Anthony L. Maresh. His piano store on E. 55th St. became the Republican political headquarters for Cleveland's southeast side, and in 1913, Maresh and his associates helped launch the political candidacy of Harry L. Davis for mayor. Maresh retired from the piano business in 1937, but actively pursued his hobby of collecting Lincoln memorabilia, building one of the largest private collections of Lincoln documents and lecturing on Lincoln lore to various groups. He served as long-time president of the local branch of the Lincoln Association of Ohio.
