Jakob and Katharina, First generation Americans
During her reign of Russia in the eighteenth century, Catherine the Great drove through the Ukraine area of South Russia with a general and was impressed by the country and wanted the Ukraine developed for agriculture. She proposed to have Germans settle there and develop the land because the Germans were hard working and productive farmers. Her plan was carried out by her son, Czar Paul, after her death.
Farmers and settlers came from Germany and Switzerland as did the ancestors of Jacob and Katharina Goehring. Jacob was born December 19,1850, and Katharina Neuhart was born September 14, 1852, in South Russia. They lived and grew up in different villages. Katharina was from the Reformed Church founded by Zwingli and Jacob was a baptized Lutheran. He later joined Katharina's church.
Jacob was supposed to marry a wealthy farmer's daughter (the parents had arranged the marriage), but he and some boys took a Sunday trip to a town to attend a "Harvest Festival". They had a huge pole in the center of a ring with ropes extending outward and music was played and girls danced around the pole. Here he saw Katharina for the first time. He became acquainted with her and made up his mind to marry her.
They were married January 23, 1872. This caused a lot of trouble between the two families who had arranged Jacob's marriage and Jacob's father refused to set him up in farming. Katharina's father was a cabinet maker of fine furniture, which was a good trade. They had relatives in America who wrote about the opportunities in the new land. It is believed that they had financial help from someone in South Dakota so they decided to come here. While in the Ukraine seven children were born: 1. Kristina, who died at seven months; 2. Carl, died at two years; 3. Andrew; 4. Karolina; 5. Christina; 6. Rosa; and 7. Louisa.
Jacob, his pregnant wife, and five children left their home in Odessa, Russia and sailed for America. It was a long hard voyage. It was terribly crowded. The men stayed together and the women and children stayed together. Katharina was very ill, being pregnant. The women were fine Christian women and did a lot of praying. The food was awful and the smell was bad. Katharina always remained very sensitive to smells, particularly fish smell. They landed on May 8, 1884, and came to South Dakota to take a tree claim on a farm north of Freeman in Hutchinson County where the rest of the children were born: 1. Charles, 2. Katharina, 3.Fred, 4. Anna, 5. Jacob and 6. Lydia. Jacob and Lydia died of diphtheria and were buried in the same grave.
They lived there until 1905 when they moved to Bridgewater where they operated an International Farm Implement business. They decided to move west in 1910. They settled on a farm in Lincoln Township now owned by the Ashdowns. They farmed there until they retired in 1919 when they moved to Highmore where they lived until 1932 when they moved to live with their son Charles on a farm in Loomis Township. Jacob died of a stroke on December 16, 1932, and Katharina died October 24, 1940, also of a stroke.
Andrew married Sophia Hoff and after her death married Emma Rittel and farmed in Lincoln Township. Karolina (Caroline) married Fred Myers and lived at Armour, South Dakota. Kristina narried George Guttmiller and lived at Hosmer, South Dakota. Rosa married Jacob Shaffer and lived at Oakland, California. Louisa married Fred Neidenbach and lived in Hyde County and LakeCity, South Dakota. Charles married Mary Baumgart and farmed in Loomis Township. Anna married Bill Silvernail and after his death married Cobe Everleth and lived in Sturgis, Rapid City, and Mesa, Arizona. Katherine married Jacob Mettler, Jr. and lived near Menno, South Dakota. Fred married Cora Smith and lived in Hyde County and California.Johannes married Katharina Neuhardt on 23 Jan 1872 in Kassel, Odessa, Ukrayina.
