| 25818 | The following article appeared in the Zanesville Times Recorder on 5 Mar 1967: MAN TREATED HERE AFTER BEING SHOT Earl Smithberger, about 35, of Summerfield Route 1, received treatment at Good Samaritan hospital last night for what was reported to be a gunshot wound in his right side. It was first believed that Smithberger has been hit by a single bullet but it was understood that treatment revealed a number of pellets had lodged in his side. The Monroe County sheriff?s office said it received a re- port the shooting occurred in a tavern but the Noble County sheriff?s office, which apparently has jurisdiction in the case, said it had nothing to report. Smithberger was brought here in a Brubach ambulance from Summerfield. The attendant reported he picked up the wounded man at his home after being called by the father, Raymond Smithberger. Smithberger was admitted to the hospital at 7:45 p.m. and was still in surgery last night. | Smithberger, Earl Peter (I150278)

| 25821 | The following excerpt was written in 1994 in the memoirs of Judith Smith Fitzhugh, eldest daughter of August William Smith and Bertha Cora Weisent Smith. August Smith (father) - August was born in Louisville, Ohio, on May 12, 1913. He died on June 22, 1973, at 60 years of age. He was the oldest of 5 children. One brother, died at age 16; a sister, Alma, died at age 23 of rheumatic fever. August was raised on a farm in a small rural community. He spoke only German until he started grade school. He had only a grade school education; he purposely flunked one year of school so he would be 16 and not have to go to high school. My father didn't believe having much education was important. He served during World War II in the Philippines. After the war, he married my mother in 1948. He was 35 years old at the time he married and most probably was already "set in his ways." He was very close to his mother, and it was very traumatic for him when she died in 1961. It was the only time I ever remember my father crying. When my parents married, my mother had been working for some time. She continued to do so until the children arrived. My father never minded my mother working before or after they married. He didn't seem to mind her getting involved in outside activities either. He occasionally would help do household chores; for example, he would wash the dishes if my mother was busy and didn't have time to do them. I also remember him cooking once in awhile, especially on Sunday evenings. My father raised ten children, all of whom survived infancy. He had a job in a factory, and although we were not destitute, my father would live from payday to payday. It was his policy that if he didn't have the money, he would not buy the item. He was a strict disciplinarian, but was usually very fair. In most cases, my brothers would usually he blamed for misbehavior, even if the girls were also involved. He would use much harsher punishment for the boys than the girls. His lack of education prevented him from being able to help the children much with homework, although he would help if he was able to. His ideas on education were reflected in his views on his children furthering their education. When my sister, Carol, went to nursing school for three years, he could not understand why she wanted to spend so much time in school instead of getting a job. When my brother, Don, wanted to quit working to go to college, my father objected so violently that he gave up the idea eventually. My brother, Bob, did go on to finish college, but my father did not seem to object this time. Perhaps it was because Bob had a full scholarship and therefore, my father would not have to pay to put him through school. I do know that money was a constant worry for my father, which was understandable with a large family and a low-paying job. Another incident I personally remember was the time that I wanted to move out of the home to share a house with two other girls. My father objected so strongly that I never did leave home until I got married. I don't remember why he did not want me to leave; perhaps he did not want to see his oldest daughter leave or maybe he didn't believe that girls should move out of the parents' house until they married. | Smith, August William (I196861)

| 25822 | The following excerpt was written in 1994 in the memoirs of Judith Smith Fitzhugh, eldest daughter of August William Smith and Bertha Cora Weisent Smith. (source: "Michel Family Tree") John Smith (paternal grandfather) - John was born in Fulda, Ohio, in 1876. He died in 1943 at the age of 67. He was very strict with the children and very domineering with his wife. My mother said he was definitely the boss of the family. He wanted a large meal on Sundays and thought the woman should do all the cooking. Sunday was a day to attend church; John was a strict Catholic. He insisted on naming my father, August, after one of his brothers, even though my grandmother protested. | Smith, John Adam (I196860)

We were all kept together for about five years; Tillie taking care of the house as my mother worked out and the other children also as they became old enough. Later the older ones began to work away from home and earn their own way. My brothers and I were put out with families who were friends of my mother. We worked for our keep and in this way were all separated and lost contact with each other; especially the older ones. I lived with a Smith family at Wellsburg until I was about 14, then we three boys with our mother moved to Washington, Pennsylvania where we worked in the glass factory. Mother kept house for us for three years. She then married a man named Morris. I was 17 at this time. I then went to California. This was in 1906. In 1909 I married Mary Ella Jackson at Sacramento, California. She was a Wellsburg girl and we lived at Woodland, California until 1913. She wanted to go back home on a visit. She did, but never returned to California. To us were born the following children. She took them with her. Ethel May Bresock - Born January 20, 1910 at Woodland, California.

| 25827 | The Friedrich Hoff married to Margaretha Guthmiller was a different Friedrich Hoff who was born in Sep 1857 and died 27 Dec 1895. From my research I have determined that he was born on 23 Sep 1857 to Heinrich Hoff and Regina Stoebner. Info from family sources given to me was that his birth was on the 17th to Friedrich Hoff and Anna Stoebner, but he was brother of Jacob Hoff (b.29 Aug 1851 and married to Magdalena Ladner). This is proven in the 1880 Census because Friedrich and his wife, Margaretha, were living in Jacob's household in the 1880 U.S. census, Bon Homme, Dakota Territory population schedule, T96 R60, enumeration district (ED) 94, p. 82 (30), family 266. I found two sources showing that this Jacob was a son of Heinrich and Regina Stoebner Hoff. I have found further documentation to prove that both Jacob and Friedrich were sons of Heinrich Hoff and Regina Stoebner, such as the Glueckstal Births and Marriages, 1833-1900 found on the Odessa website. The family sources given me were undocumented, heresay evidence from Jeanette Schlenker, and I can't find any evidence to prove the data she was given. It was said that the parents "Fred & Anna Stoebner Hoff" both died in a cholera epidemic in 1872. "Fred" was supposedly born in 1835 and "Anna" in 1837, both in Kassel, South Russia. Their son, Friedrich, was supposedly born 17 Sep 1857 at Kassel according to a few undocumented family sources. In any event, Friedrich (I2692) is the wrong Friedrich because he is linked with the wrong parents and with the wrong birth date. I am confident of the data and documentation that I have on Friedrich and his wife, Margaretha Guthmiller, and I am willing to offer further proof.

| 25828 | The German surname Meißner is usually traced to the town Meissen or Meißen (near Dresden) where porcelain was first produced in Europe (around 1700). According Hans Bahlow, a famous German onomastician, the name of the town originates from the Slavic word 'Misna' = 'Sumpfort' (English: place of swamp, marshland). The porcelain factory in Meissen is on the bank of the Misna river. There are a few other places in Germany with the same name. Meißen is the name of a principality; and there is a mountain named Meißner in northern Hesse, and a nearby community 37290 Meißner. MEISSNER or MEIßNER is the most frequent spelling in Germany, with 12,400+ entries in the German phone book. Other common spellings are MEIXNER (2,000+ entries) and MEICHSNER (700+ entries). The latter two are especially common in the border region near Bohemia (now Czech Republic).

| 25831 | The Hiller-Marshall Family Entries: 5158 Updated: Sun Oct 28 06:56:05 2001 Liz Schulte rjschulte@msn.com BIOGRAPHY: According to the History of Cooper Co., " Herman Oswald was born in Bavaria, Germany, April 17, 1820, and died in Cooper County Dec. 15, 1903. His wife, who was Christina Youngkamp prior to her marriage was born in Westphalia, Germany, Oct. 12, 1844 and died March 10, 1893. They were parents of the following children: Frank, born Sept. 17, 1868, lives in Boonville; Julius, born Feb. 2, 1863, Cooper Co. farmer; August, born July 6, 1864, Cooper County farmer; Christina,etc. (names all children) "Herman Oswald came to America in 1854 and first located in the timber lands of Wisconsin. He entered 40 acres of virgin timber land near Green Bay and proceeded to cut a road through the timber which to this day is known as the Oswald road. He came to Cooper Co. after a year or so to be able to live in a climate which was not so severe as the Wisconsin climate. Not long after he came here he sold his northern farm and after renting land for a time in Cooper County he purchased a place south of Boonville. He accumulated over 400 acres of land and became one of the wealthy citizens of Cooper County. He owned prior to his death a total of 1,300 acres of land, 1,000 of which was situated in Cooper County and 300 acres located in Kansas. Mr. Oswald followed general farming and stock raising and operated on a large scale as a feeder of livestock. He prospered until the breaking out of the Civil War when the depredations of the bands of soldiers who were overrunning the country practically cleaned him out; his live stock was run off; his provisions taken whenever he had any and everything movable was "requisitioned". At the close of the war he was practically "broke" and a new start was necessary. Like others who were in the same plight, he recovered from his losses and became wealthy. He was married in 1861 to Christina Youngkamp who came to America from Germany in 1858 with her father, Bernard Youngkamp. " | Oswald, Hermann (I27036)

| 25849 | The Patriot Guard Riders will stand in for the family of Air Force veteran Gordon Jay Leingang at a funeral at Willamette National Cemetery Tuesday at 1 p.m. Leingang died April 27 at Adventist Medical Center at the age of 58, leaving no known family members. His last address was at the Best Value Inns Motel on Southeast 82nd Avenue. Erin Phelps, the owner and funeral director of Southeast Portland's Omega Funeral & Cremation Service, said he was able to trace Leingang's military service because he had a card in his wallet from the Department of Veterans Affairs. By calling the VA, Phelps said he was able to confirm that Leingang served in Air Force beginning around 1971, that he was honorably discharged and had a service-connected disability. The state pays $650 to funeral homes to bury the indigent, an amount sufficient to pay for cremation in most cases, Phelps said. But Leingang had an almost illegible address book that listed his religious preference as Judaism. "I could not, in good conscience, cremate him," said Phelps. Jewish teaching holds that the dead are to be buried in the earth. The military honors service is open to the public. | Leingang, Gordon Jay (I249536)

| 25850 | The PS General Slocum was a passenger steamboat built in Brooklyn, New York, in 1891. The General Slocum was named for Civil War General and New York Congressman Henry Warner Slocum. She operated in the New York City area as an excursion steamer for the next thirteen years under the same ownership. During her service history, she was involved in a number of mishaps, including multiple groundings and collisions. On June 15, 1904, the General Slocum caught fire and sank in New York's East River.[1] At the time of the accident she was on a chartered run carrying members of St. Mark's Evangelical Lutheran Church (German Americans from Little Germany, Manhattan) to a church picnic. An estimated 1,021 of the 1,342 people on board died. The General Slocum disaster was the New York area's worst disaster in terms of loss of life until the September 11, 2001 attacks.[2] The events surrounding the General Slocum fire have appeared in a number of books, plays and movies. The General Slocum worked as a passenger ship, taking people on excursions around New York City. On Wednesday, June 15, 1904, the ship had been chartered for $350 by St. Mark's Evangelical Lutheran Church in the Little Germany district of Manhattan. This was an annual rite for the group, which had made the trip for 17 consecutive years even as German settlers deserted Little Germany for the Upper East and West Sides. Over 1,400[6] passengers, mostly women and children, boarded the Slocum, which was to sail up the East River and then eastward across the Long Island Sound to Locust Grove, a picnic site in Eatons Neck, Long Island. The ship got underway at 9:30 a.m. As it was passing East 90th Street, a fire started in the Lamp Room[7] in the forward section, possibly caused by a discarded cigarette or match but certainly fueled by the straw, oily rags, and lamp oil strewn around the room.[8] The first notice of a fire was at 10:00 a.m.; eyewitnesses claimed the initial blaze began in various locations, including a paint locker filled with flammable liquids and a cabin filled with gasoline. Captain Van Schaick was only notified ten minutes after the fire was discovered. A 12-year-old boy had tried to warn him earlier but was not believed. Although the captain was ultimately responsible for the safety of passengers, no effort had been made to maintain or replace the ship's safety equipment. The fire hoses had been allowed to rot, and fell apart when the crew attempted to put out the fire. Likewise, the crew had never had a fire drill, and the lifeboats were tied up (some claim they were wired and painted in place)[9] and inaccessible. Survivors reported that the life preservers were useless and fell apart in their hands. Desperate mothers placed life jackets on their children and tossed them into the water, only to watch in horror as their children sank instead of floating. Most of those on board were women and children who, like most Americans of the time, could not swim; even victims who did not don the worthless life preservers found that their heavy wool clothing weighed them down in the water.[9] Carrying away a body from North Brother Island It has been suggested that the manager of the life preserver manufacturer actually placed iron bars inside the cork preservers to meet minimum weight requirements at the time. Many of the life preservers had been filled with cheap and less effective granulated cork and brought up to proper weight by the inclusion of the iron weights. Canvas covers, rotted with age, split and scattered the powdered cork. Managers of the company (Nonpareil Cork Works) were indicted but not convicted. The life preservers had been manufactured in 1891 and had hung above the deck, unprotected from the elements, for 13 years.[10] Captain Van Schaick mishandled the situation. He decided to continue his course rather than run the ship aground or stop at a nearby landing. By going into headwinds and failing to immediately ground the ship, he actually fanned the fire. (Van Schaick would later argue he was attempting to prevent the fire from spreading to riverside buildings and oil tanks.) Flammable paint also helped the fire spread out of control. Some passengers attempted to jump into the river, but the heavy women's clothing of the day made swimming almost impossible and dragged them underwater to drown. Many died when the floors of the overloaded boat collapsed; others were battered by the still-turning paddles as they attempted to escape into the water or over the sides.[11] By the time the General Slocum sank in shallow water at North Brother Island, just off the Bronx shore, an estimated 1,021 people had either burned to death or drowned, with 321 survivors. 2 of the 30 crew members died. The captain lost sight in one eye owing to the fire. Reports indicate that Van Schaick deserted the Slocum as soon as it settled, jumping into a nearby tug, along with several crew. Some say his jacket was hardly rumpled, but other reports stated that he was seriously injured. He was hospitalized at Lebanon Hospital. There were many acts of heroism among the passengers, witnesses, and emergency personnel. Staff and patients from the hospital on North Brother Island participated in the rescue efforts, forming human chains and pulling victims from the water. | Wuest, Susanna (I186068)
