Horst Moennig was said to have been married to Harry Baxter's daughter, a flutist, and he worked at the Baxter Northrup music store in Los Angeles. They imported various instruments with names such as Marcel Deleau, H. Lefebre, Moennig, Buffet, etc. I own instruments with all these names.

An early Buffet simple system oboe and EH pair of mine in a double case dated April 1916 at Baxter Northrup has the initials H M etched on the under sides of the EH keys, probably those of Horst Moennig. One could also speculate that some of those old Moennig woodwinds from Baxter Northrup were stencil instruments not named for a maker in Germany but for Horst Moennig, the employee and son in law of Harry Baxter.
