German Reformed at Grand Prairie - This church was established by about twenty families, mostly all of Swiss emigration. In the same settlement there were living a number of families known as Lutherans, and two branches, Reformed and Lutherans, were supporting together one church and one pastor in common, for a number of years, but matters did not work all right together; the Lutherans being too orthodox for the liberal minded Reformed, and they separated. At a meeting then held by the Reformed members on the 5th day of February, 1852, a resolution was unanimously adopted to establish and form a church of their own. A few of the prominent members then, such as Peter INGZI, Christian INGZI, Christian STERCHI, Henry STERCHI, John Jacob HAUCK, Philip J. ZIMMERLE and others, now all dead, took the matter in hand, purchased a tract of land of twenty-four and a half acres for a building site, and the present church was then erected at a cost of $800. In 1876, or 1877, a very handsome parsonage was also erected near the church; the first pastor, Rev. G.F. LAUNER, a theological graduate of Berne, Switzerland. In 1874, the congregation associated itself with the German Reformed Synod of America, through the management of Rev. Fr. Judt, a graduate of the Basel Missionary Society, Switzerland, of many years ago. The present membership is large, amounting to about 100, and its pastor is Rev. KIPER.

Johannes married Rose Ann Whitney on 19 Jul 1845 in Indiana, USA. Rose was born in 1823 in Indiana, USA; died in in Olney Township, Richland County, Illinois, USA. [Group Sheet] [Family Chart]
