JOSEPH FABACHER, CANAL.--Joseph H. Fabacher, planter and merchant, living
twelve miles north of Crowley, was born in the city of New Orleans, August 24,
1858. He is the son of Joseph and Magdalene (Frey) Fabacher, both natives of
Germany. To them were born eleven children, nine sons and two daughters.

Our subject, when but a small boy, emigrated alone to America, landing at New
Orleans in 1837. He turned his hand to different occupations until he arrived
at man's estate In 1870 he removed from New Orleans to Acadia parish, and
engaging in the rice industry. It was through his exertions that rice culture,
which is now Acadia's best paying industry, was introduced into the parish.
In 1879 he sold his plantation and returned to New Orleans, where he engaged
in the restaurant business, and in this he is still interested. Mr. Fabacher
owns two hundred acres of land in this parish, one hundred and twenty-five of
which are in cultivation, the principal product being rice. He also, on a
less extensive scale, raises corn and oats. He has a stock of general
merchandise on his farm, in value about one thousand eight hundred dollars,
and is doing a good business. Mr. Fabacher is the post-master of Canal.

He was married, in 1880, to Dora Ginkel, daughter of Abraham Ginkel. To them
have been born six children, four sons and two daughters: Andrew,
Frank(deceased), Lawrence, Magdalene and Joseph; one died in infancy. Mr.

Joseph Henry Fabacher: The Father of Commercial Rice Farming in Acadiana

During a fourteen-year period in Acadia Parish, from 1880 to 1894, Joseph Henry Fabacher was the most dominant force in the rice industry?s transformation from primitive farming methods to large-scale commercial production.

The story of rice farming in south Louisiana begins in the fall of 1871 when Fabacher was a young boy of 12. In that year Fabacher?s father, Franz Joseph Fabacher, relocated his wife and six children from New Orleans to Faquetaique (fa-ka-tay) Prairie near what is now Eunice, LA. According to the few locals who lived near that area in 1871, the prairie land was considered to be completely worthless for farming purposes. But Franz Fabacher and his ?German Colony? co-founding partner, Zeno Huber, were not to be deterred.

During the early 1870?s rice farmers grew what they called ?Providence rice? for private use in the community. Their rice crop was given this name because a healthy crop depended entirely on the weather - lots of rain and providential good fortune - during the rice-growing season. Their vulnerable dependence on Providence was about to change.

The first innovative change in rice farming was the construction of water reservoirs that were large ponds surrounded by levees. These reservoirs would collect water year-round and the water could be drained into low-lying marsh rice fields when needed. The Fabacher Colonists were the first to build these reservoirs to grow Providence rice for private use.

Then in 1878, Franz Fabacher decided he had seen enough of farming. He sold all of his property and moved back to New Orleans. The elder Fabacher tried to convince his son Joseph to live in New Orleans, but nineteen-year-old Joseph the farmer was just getting started. During the next two years Joseph ran away from New Orleans three times to continue farming, and was eventually allowed by his father to remain at Faquetaique Prairie to farm his 84 acres of land.

The Providence rice crop of 1879 was ?a dead failure? according to a local newspaper, the Opelousas Courier. But in 1880, something amazing occurred in the Fabacher Settlement that was described in the St. Landry Democrat newspaper as a small neighborhood no more than 3 or 4 miles wide.

The St. Landry Democrat article describes the astoundingly successful Providence rice crop of 1880 in the Fabacher Colony this way, ?So we have here a small neighborhood where they used to produce absolutely nothing for sale, a revenue of $16,000. The rice lands in this neighborhood, the marshes, which were once considered not only worthless but a nuisance, are the most valuable; and it will not be long before they cannot be bought for any reasonable price.? The newspaper also declared that because of that year?s bumper crop, rice is ?destined to become one of the greatest industries of southwest Louisiana.?

This was the first large-scale production of Providence rice grown in lowland marshes. But just two years later, in 1882, Fabacher would produce yet another innovative change in rice farming. He would be the first rice farmer to grow what is known as ?upland rice,? which is grown on higher land than the low-lying marshes, and his first effort was a success.

Fabacher?s upland rice was grown on dry higher land because high land reservoirs would retain rainwater for a greater period of time. This also required him to relocate his rice fields to higher land. The change in rice field location was another unprecedented innovation.

With the success of this 1882 rice crop, Fabacher purchased 162 acres of land, bringing his total acreage to 246. During his highly successful rice farming years 1883 to 1894 he acquired a total of 627 acres of farmland.

In 1885, Fabacher created yet another rice farming innovation - the deep water well.

By 1893, Fabacher had three deep-water wells, the deepest being 205 feet. These wells were 4 by 4 feet round with a 40-foot wooden ladder leading to the bottom at water level. At the bottom of the well sat a steam engine water pump that could run 24 hours a day, 7 days a week pumping fresh water into high land reservoirs, which drained water down into ?up land? rice fields through a complex series of canals. With the addition of steam powered water pumps, the Machine Age had arrived in southwest Louisiana.

When the Midland-Eunice Railroad was completed in 1894, Fabacher built a warehouse next to the railroad tracks and opened his rice storage and shipping business transporting the local farmers rice by railroad to be milled in Eunice and Crowley, and their milled rice was then transported worldwide.

The Fabacher family legacy also includes the story of Joseph Henry?s younger brother, Lawrence Fabacher, who is well known in New Orleans as the owner of Fabacher?s Restaurant and the Jackson Brewing Company, which bottled the wildly popular Jax Beer in the early 20th century.

When Joseph Henry Fabacher died in New Orleans at his mother?s home on February 2, 1910, he was the fifty-one year old father of thirteen children. Fabacher?s wife, Dora Ginkle, died six years earlier in 1904. Two years after her death Fabacher married again to Annie Crossen who bore one child. He bequeathed a sizable inheritance to his children and new wife.

Joseph Fabacher?s innovative journey transforming Providence rice from private use to commercial potential, to large-scale commercial ?up land? rice production, to shipping and storage merchant for the rice farming community, has easily earned him the title ?Father of Commercial Rice Farming in Acadiana.?

Father: Francois Joseph BISSLER b: 17 AUG 1796 in Bourbach le Bas, Alsace, France Mother: Therese BIHLER b: 29 AUG 1792 in Bourbach le Bas, Alsace, France
Submitter: Claudia Bissler
Subject: Bissler
Message: Hello Cousin Mark, I am glad to meet you. I am a Bissler by marriage to Gary Kent Bissler, son of Ernest Edward Bissler, son of John C. Bissler, son of Martin Bissler, brother of Bernard. Their parents, Francois Joseph Bissler and Theresea Bihler came to the USA in the 1830's. Francois was the son of Joannes Bissler and Margaretha Wohlfart. Joannes was the son of Joseph Bissler of St. Ammarin and Anna Marie Schadelin who married on 25 Jan. 1758 in St. Amarin. The following is a quote from material I have recently received from Mr. Patrick Bissler of Sentheim, Alsace, France. He has researched the family in Bourbach le Bas and St. Amarin. "The earliest Bissler record found in Bourback le Bas is in 1788. On January 14 of that year, Johann (Jean) Bissler married Margaretha (Marguerite) Wohlfart. The record states that Johann was twenty-eight years old and was the son of Joseph Bissler and Anna Maria Schottely of St. Amarin (a city about seven miles north of Bourbach-le-Bas). Unfortunately the names Bissler and Schottely are completely absent from the records of St. Amarin, so tracing the family back any farther will not be easy. They were very probably from another village inthe near vicinity, however, and it may someday be discovered. Johann's wife was a native of Bourbach-le-Bas, having been baptized there on March 9, 1799, the daughter of Johann Peter (Jean Pierre) Wohlfart and Catharina Schlosser. Johann died in Bourbach-le-Bas on April 4, 1797, and Margaretha remarried to Johann (Jean) Rooth/Roth. She died October 20, 1828 in Bourbach-le Bas. Johann and Margaretha had Six known children." He goes on to tell that 3 of the children died before they were five years old. One was born after his fathers death. Two of the children came to the U.s. They are Johann Baptiste and Francois Joseph. I have much more material but this is a good beginning. I am very interested in the family of Bernard and Malanie. There are several Bernard's or Barneys and it is confusing to sort them out. Are you in the northeast Ohio area so that we could meet and exchange data. I would like to know about Bernard and Melanie's children and grandchildren etc. I am looking forward to hearing from you. Our cousin in France, Patrick, will be excited to hear of another cousin turning up. Claudia Bissler
Submitter: Mark Steinke
Subject: Bissler
Message: Hi Claudia, Wow! I can't believe how information well information gets around. The information you posted from Patrick is a direct quote from a family history I wrote 10 years ago. I don't believe I ever got around to placing it in a library (I did place a write-up on the Favret family in the Canton Library). I did share my research with the Bisslers in Kent (descendants of Martin and Louisa Wise Bissler) and they must have made contact with relatives in Alsace. It's really amazing what a small world it is! I researched the Bisslers in the records of Bourbach-le-Bas, which are available on microfilm through the Mormon library. Johann's marriage record in Bourbach-le-Bas lists him as being from St. Amarin and his mother's name as Anna Maria Schottely. I was unsuccessful locating info on them in the St. Amarin records. Looks like Patrick succeeded there where I failed. You can see what I found on all the Bissler ancestors by going to my family tree at http://home.fuse.net/mepsteinke/D43.HTM I do live in Ohio, but the other end of the state from you - Cincinnati. Let me know if you ever get down this way! Thanks for your help, and I look forward to hearing if Patrick succeeding in finding other info I missed. Take a look at my site and let me know what you think. Thanks again, and take care, Mark

HISTORY OF OHIO, The American Historical Society, Inc., 1925 Volume IV, page 54 SAMUEL C. BISSLER, proprietor of a furniture store and undertaking business at 12-14 East Main Street at Kent, is a well known citizen of Portage County, and nearly all his business career has been passed in thatsection of the state. He was born in Stark County, Ohio, November 20, 1871, son of Martin and Louisa (Wise) Bissler. His parents were natives of Germany, and his grandfathers, John Bissler and Joseph Wise, brought their families to Ohio in early days. Martin Bissler after his marriage lived on a farm east of Hartville, in Stark County, but in 1873 moved to Suffield Township, Portage County, where he and his wife bought farms of sixty and forty-five acres, a mile apart, both in the Bissler name. Martin Bissler died there in 1885, and his widow survived until April 1, 1905. Their children were: Katherine, of Kent, widow of Valentine May; Jacob and John, both of Brimfield Township; Barney, of Suffield Township; Charles, of Akron; Samuel C.; and one daughter and three sons now deceased. Samuel C. Bissler, the youngest son of the family, grew up on the farm in Portage County, attended the district schools, and at the age of seventeen he began his career of work, though he remained at home assisting on the home place for several years. At the age of twenty he moved to Kent, where he was employed as a teamster and also did some farming, and in October, 1892, became an employe of I.L. Herriff in the furniture and undertaking business. He was identified with the Herriff establishment for twenty-one years, assuming an increasing share of responsibilities in the management of business. Finally he traded his town property for a 162 acre farm in Brimfield Township, and personally conducted the farm for eighteen months. Selling out, he returned to Kent with the purpose of reengaging as a partner of Mr. Herriff. Shortly afterward Mr. Herriff fell ill and died a few years later. Soon after that Mr. Bissler bought the Burt Eckert livery business and entered into the undertaking business, and the following February he disposed of the livery interests and has since continued in business as a furniture dealer and funeral director. He has one of the successful business undertakings of his home town. On November 8, 1893, Mr. Bissler married Miss Clara Keener, who was born in Suffield Township of Portage County, daughter of Godfried Keener, a native of Germany. Mr. and Mrs. Bissler have four children, Ira S., now associated with his father in business, married Mary Armstrong and has two sons, named Jerry and Dick. Thelma Marie is the wife of Rexford L. Sampsell, of Kent. Mr. Bissler has served two terms on the City Council of Kent. He and his family are Catholics. In politics he is a democrat, and he has served as a trustee of the Knight of Columbus, is a member of the Fraternal Order of Eagles, Kent Lodge No. 1376, Benevolent and Protective Order of Elks, is a Rotarian, and a member of the Chamber of Commerce and the Twin Lakes Golf Club.
