| 3851 | BIOGRAPHY: Proposed Change: Louis Opp (I18956) Tree: Südpfalz / Southern Palatinate Link: http://birkenhoerdt.net/getperson.php?personID=I18956&tree=Suedpfalz Description: Just a bit of trivia for you....Louis Opp was somewhat of a celebrity in Belleville. He eventually became president of the Enterprise Foundry Co. and was the Postmaster of Belleville in 1913 (don't know when he started). He resigned due to conflict of interest and Mr. Sopp suceeded Mr. Opp (that is just too funny). Anyway, he was nominated to be Postmaster again in 1922 and received a unanimous vote by the U.S. Senate. He was sent a telegram of congratulations from Senator William B. McKinley (who went on to become our 25th President and assasinated in his second term). All this information comes from the Belleville News Democrat. claire rassman deloon2000@aol.com DEATH: http://www2.sos.state.il.us/GenealogyMWeb/IDPHDeathSearchServlet OPP LOUIS M/W UNK 2820273 1932-10-16 ST CLAIR BELLEVILLE 32-10-18 | Opp, Louis (I18956)

| 3857 | BIOGRAPHY: Recs & Ursula, That is indeed my Caroline Clementine Eberly, and I can give you some additional information on that family. Nicholas is buried in SS. Philip & Janes Cemetery, Lawrence Twp, Stark Co. Ohio, right outside of Canal Fulton where several of your Gull's settled. They atteneded the same church. He died 15 Aug 1949 according to the cemetery records of Stark Co. OH. By the way, I believe Johannes Holzinger was visiting those Gills when he met Caroline. I believe Catherine thought she would be sent back to France if she did not have a husband, so she claimed Nicholas was still living in the 1850 census. Nicholas was married to the mother of Anthony (Anton) in the Alsace region, where she passed away. I have a census record from 1836 France where his wife is listed as someone other than Catherine. I do not have the record with me and have not made the note on my family sheet. He subsequently married a Catherine Kocher ine Forestfeld, Bas-Rhin, France. The marriage information is from the IGI on the LDS site, but I have Caroline's death certificate which lists Catherine Kocher as her mother. Catherine remarried to an Anthony Brown in Stark Co, OH. They had several additional children. She and Anthony Brown along with Joseph (1849 - 1935) and Mary Eberly ( 1846 - 1935) are also in SS. Philip and James Cemetery. I saw the Eberle listings on your site and was wondering about migations across the border to the point of asking the question on one of the listserves I subscribe to. Yes, I would like to be listed, and can give you additional data on some of the people who settled in Huntington Co. One of the projects I am going to undertake is to extract the Catholic Church records for Allen and Huntington Counties, and then as I have time the rest of the Diocese. I am doing it so I can make sure I have all of the people from all side of my father's family that were in the two counties. What software are you using? I really like the format (much better than An CENSUS: 1850: Name: Nicholas Everly Age: 42 Estimated birth year: abt 1808 Birth place: Germany Gender: Male Home in 1850 (City,County,State): Franklin, Summit, Ohio Page: 50 Roll: M432_732 | Eberle, Johannes Nikolaus (I18575)

Ralph Schmitt and Teresa Rottkamp were already second cousins through the Rottkamp family when she married Ferdie Schmitt, Ralph's first cousin. This article is from the Wednesday, August 2, 1995 New York Newsday newspaper article (The Long Island Edition). IT'S A SMALL WORLD FOR A BIG FAMILY There are villages with populations smaller than the number of Rottkamps on Long Island [ALL EDITIONS] Newsday - Long Island, N.Y. Author: By Ken Moritsugu. STAFF WRITER Date: Aug 2, 1995 Start Page: B.04 Edition: Combined editions Section: PART II IN 1850, Bernard Rottkamp met Caroline Engel at St. Nicholas Roman Catholic Church in Manhattan. It was the start of something big. Really big. The following year, Rottkamp, a 28-year-old immigrant farmer from Germany, married Engel, a 17-year-old native New Yorker. They weren't Adam and Eve but what came next is more reminiscent of Genesis. They begat 14 children, who begat 279 children, who begat 794 children. Today, 144 years and six generations later, the family can count a whopping 2,232 direct descendants of the original couple. And about 2,000 are living, many on Long Island The family is so big that relatives have stumbled into previously unknown relations in their daily lives. There was the young man and woman who dated three times before they realized they were cousins. And the high school pals in Wantagh who didn't find out that they were related until a year into their friendship. And the East Northport dietitian who ran into two other dietitians she knew professionally - but not as Rottkamps - at a huge Rottkamp family reunion in Hauppauge this year. "We knew we had a large family," says 87-year-old Josephine Seidler of Valley Stream, one of the great-granchildren, who spent a year charting the first family tree in 1947. "But we didn't know any of them if we fell over them." And they could fall over a Rottkamp in almost every walk of life. Once the family name was synonymous with farming on Long Island. Now Rottkamps are police officers and lawyers, priests and school teachers, computer analysts and pharmaceutical sales representatives, carpenters and investment bankers. A handful still carry on the tradition that Bernard Rottkamp started as a worker earning $5 a week on a farm near Astor Place in Manhattan. In 1861, he settled his family on their own fields in what would become Elmont. The evolution of the Rottkamps mirrors that of Long Island from an agrarian to a suburban society. All but one of the 10 children of Bernard and Caroline who survived into adulthood went into farming. The exception was John Rottkamp, who became a butcher on Hester Street in Manhattan. Few of the children in the early generations went beyond sixth or eighth grade; they left Catholic school to work on the farm. They lived through the Depression - well fed but with hand-me-down clothes and no toys for the children. "My cousin passed clothes on to me. I wasn't proud," says 71-year-old Ralph Schmitt of Valley Stream. "But being on the farm, that's one thing you always had - plenty of good food." Rottkamp men served in both world wars and Korea and Vietnam. During World War II, some of the women worked at Grumman, where they ran into other Rottkamp women. After the war, successive generations left the potato fields to become secretaries and mail carriers, grocery store workers and Long Island Rail Road conductors. But they kept their green thumbs. As 61-year-old Carol Ann Hintze of East Northport explains, "We all have nice flower gardens." A few families stuck with farming - steadily moving east to stay one step ahead of development as they moved from the family homestead in Elmont to East Meadow to Melville to Calverton. In Melville they still farm land they once owned and now lease back from Tilles Companies, land that may soon be developed for offices. Today a long list of Long Island landmarks lie on land once farmed by Rottkamps, from Levitt homes in Hicksville to the Westbury Music Fair, from Elmont High School to Newsday in Melville, from Green Acres shopping mall to the Cross-Island Parkway, which split one Rottkamp farm in half, part in Nassau County and part in Queens. That was the farm in Springfield Gardens where Ralph Schmitt, a great-grandson of the original couple, grew up and raised chickens for his father until he was 27. He remembers fattening a turkey to 30 pounds on a steady diet of corn; his mother, Theresa, had to go out to buy a pan big enough for it, and they still had to hacksaw off the legs to make it fit the oven. Schmitt raised guinea hens, which he says he never really cared for, before they took on a modern-day cachet as rock cornish hens. Accustomed to bringing in warm, fresh-from-under-the-hen eggs for breakfast, Schmitt was shocked the first time he encountered refrigerated eggs at the grocery store - and even more shocked that people would want to eat them. But times change, and so did Schmitt. His father retired and sold the farm about 1950 - it's now covered by PS 176 and dozens of homes with neatly kept lawns in a middle-class neighborhood - and Schmitt, who didn't finish high school, had to find a job. He lied about having a high school diploma and landed in a supermarket. Schmitt spent 31 years amid cold eggs, chicken parts and frozen turkeys at King Kullen and A&P. Retired now at 71, he lives in a Valley Stream senior citizen complex not far from the old family farm and clips coupons for meals around the corner at a fast food chain famous for chicken. His verdict: "It ain't bad." But the farm boy remains. Every spring, Schmitt comes home from King Kullen with a bunch of rhubarb and a pint of strawberries that he stews over a low flame with sugar and a little water. "My nephews and nieces, they say, `Rhubarb? What's that?' " John Herman, who married Rottkamp granddaughter Anne Froehlich, also left the farm but for a related field. When he lost his New Hyde Park farm during the Depression, he got a job as a sales representative for a New Jersey fertilizer company. "His territory was Long Island, and he sold to all his relatives," recalls his daughter, Carol Ann Hintze. Today Hintze's 24-year-old son, Philip, is a sales representative on Long Island for another New Jersey company, pharmaceutical giant Merck. And although he knows the area only as subdivisions and strip malls, his territory - which runs from Syosset to New Hyde Park - was once dotted with Rottkamp farms, including his grandfather's. Besides farming, the other constant in Rottkamp life was St. Boniface Roman Catholic Church in Elmont, where the children went to school and everybody went to Mass. There are so many Rottkamps buried in the church cemetery that "even gravediggers can be confused about where the graves are," Schmitt said. In the close-knit German-American farming community, many Rottkamps married in-laws whom they met at church. "They were all farming families and there was no one else," said Hintze, whose mother's brother married her husband's sister. "They had no cars, and there was church. They all went to church." Two of Bernard Rottkamp's daughters, Caroline and Elizabeth, married George and Frank Froehlich, brothers in another large Long Island farming family with German-Catholic roots. Ralph Schmitt and Teresa Rottkamp were already second cousins through the Rottkamp family when she married Ferdie Schmitt, Ralph's first cousin. The first person to try to untangle the jumble of roots in the family tree was Josephine Seidler, who set out in 1946 to find out just how many Rottkamps there were. "It was just curiosity that started it," she says. By the next year, she had compiled the first family tree, showing 512 direct descendents, and organized the first family reunion. About 450 Rottkamps turned out on June 29, 1947, at the former Commercial House in Queens Village. Dinner was $2.25 a person, and the dancing continued until midnight. Today the task of keeping track of the family tree has fallen to 68-year-old Teresa Schmitt, a widow carrying on the farming tradition in Melville with the help of her two sons, Ferd, 42, and William, 41. Her daughter Margaret, 36, runs the farmstand on a corner of the property. Schmitt herself takes orders on the phone at her house from other Long Island farmstands and an Upper West Side fruit and vegetable market. But a sign of the times has gone up along the edge of the Schmitts' cornfields. The family sold the land 15 years ago to Tilles Companies, and has been farming it on leased time. Earlier this year, Tilles put up signs announcing that the land had received local government approval for commercial office development. Tilles is talking with several potential users about developing the site, says Gary Lewi, a company spokesman. It says something about the Rottkamp presence on Long Island that Lewi grew up in a North Merrick home built on a former Rottkamp potato farm, and remembers buying fruits and vegetables from a Rottkamp farmstand at the end of the street. Teresa Schmitt knows that the day will come when her family will have to retreat from the farm, as previous generations did from theirs. "You don't really know," she says when asked about the future. "We think about it. But you know, when the time comes, something happens." The phone rings, jarring her back to the present. She takes an order from the Manhattan fruit and vegetable market: 50 boxes of basil, six of chicory, 55 each of green and red leaf lettuce and 30 of Boston lettuce, all of which will be delivered the next day. It's the same hand that carefully pencils in each new birth, death and marriage in the family-tree book, and updates a thick 3-ring binder full of family addresses, carefully divided into the 10 family branches. The term family tree may be a bit of an understated misnomer for this maze of intertwined branches. Family forest may be more like it. The last edition of the family tree, issued in 1990, is a 60-page, calendar-size booklet. An update, issued this year at a family reunion in March, lists 25 pages of births and deaths just in the past five years. The number of descendants has more than quadrupled since the first reunion in 1947, and the price of the reunion dinner, held in March at the IBEW hall in Hauppauge, has gone up 13-fold to $30. And despite about a dozen reunions over the years, Rottkamps still don't know all their relatives. Take Carol Ann Hintze, 33, who shares the same name as her mother. At the March reunion, the dietitian and nutritionist at Little Neck Community Hospital ran into two other dietitians whom she knew previously, but not as extended family. Similarly, Susanne Zimmer Stone, 31, and Stacy Friedmann Field, 30, were part of a group of Wantagh girls that hung out together at the swimming pool and the roller rink during their high school years. One day, Stacy asked Susanne if she were related to Jack Zimmer. "Yes, that's my uncle," Susanne replied. Well, Stacy said, Jack Zimmer also happened to be a good friend of her great-uncle, Herbert Wulforst. What the girls learned later from their parents was that Wulforst and Zimmer weren't just old pals from Jamaica High School; both also were Rottkamp descendants. And that's how the two high school girls discovered that they, too, were related. "I was surprised and happy," says Susanne Stone, now a nurse in pediatric chemotherapy at Memorial Sloan-Kettering Cancer Center in Manhattan. "It's a small world." Especially when you're a Rottkamp. | Rottkamp, Bernhard Johann Albert (I69674)

| 3878 | BIOGRAPHY: Relay for Life survivor story: Dr. Ben Stoebner Relay for Life survivor story: Dr. Ben Stoebner Posted by editor Monday, June 25, 2007 at 3:11 PM Viewed 2 times 0 comments Local retired optometrist Dr. Ben Stoebner was born in the small town of Eureka, South Dakota, in the late twenties; a sturdy, steady young man whose father was a farmer until a door opened for an easier job and he rented out his acreage to go to work in a prestigious-sounding business called German Farmers Mutual Insurance Company. Ben attended Eureka schools, attended University of South Dakota, and graduated in 1953 from Pacific University at Forest Grove, Oregon, as a developed optometrist. Dryer and warmer, California beckoned to him and he opened offices, each for a short time, in Lodi and Boron (where he met and married school teacher Mary Jane McCarthy), and permanently in Tehachapi in 1965. The Stoebners raised two daughters and three sons, all of whom graduated from the local high school. At age 74, Ben was hospitalized in Lancaster with a perforated appendix requiring surgery, but tests also showed a cancerous tumor in his left kidney. Swift removal was necessary and he was transferred to the Univeristy of Southern California (USC) Hospital. Frightening barely described his predicament. After recovery from both operations, his brother, Darrold, who is a medical doctor, advised Ben to have further tests on his prostate gland, which had shown worrisome irregularities. After forty-two prostate radiation treatments at Comprehensive Blood and Cancer Center (CBCC) in Bakersfield to shrink the newly diagnosed cancer, he had surgery just a year after losing a kidney from the same dreaded disease. In April, 2004, with plans being made for the entire family to attend his youngest daughter's wedding at Whistler, British Columbia, Ben was playing golf when he noticed discomfort in his right ankle, much like a sprain. He didn't see a doctor; he had sprained ankles in sports that time alone had healed. As the pain continued, he finally saw a local physician. It was first believed to be a cyst, and later, more seriously, perhaps a lesion. X-rays showed a quarter sized hole in the area just above his ankle, and he was referred to a podiatrist. The specialist asked Ben if he had been checked for cancer in his ankle. Ben had a beautiful bride to escort to an altar in Canada so the sore ankle was put on hold. The night before the wedding, Ben, Mary Jane and his soon-to-be son-in-law were walking down a flight of stairs and Ben took a terrible fall, hitting his head on the wall and in agony with what everyone was sure was a broken leg. The wedding proceeded, with Ben filling his role as father-of-the-bride in misery and on much medication. A difficult, pain-filled flight brought him from British Columbia to the home of his daughter at Manhattan Beach. He sought treatment at one of the university hospitals, but there was not an orthopedic doctor on duty to treat him right away. He was taken to CBCC in Bakersfield, where tests showed renal cancer in the bone and confirmed the fact that the fall was not from mis-stepping, but from the cancerous hole in his ankle bone that had caused the leg to break. He was sent to UCLA. Doctors there provided two options: having the leg set using cadaver bone fragments as part of the repair, or the terrorizing choice of amputation. He was given a few days to decide. After much thought both pro and con, he spoke with his wife and each of his children, explaining to them his choice of amputation, reasoning that if it was done, the cancer and the pain would be gone. They all agreed. With the support of his family and friends, the amputation was successful, and the good doctor began his journey of healing, therapy, and eventually learning to walk with a false leg. Following surgery, he spent thirteen days at UCLA, thirteen days at a rehabilitation hospital, and was finally allowed to return to a little bit of heaven ? home! The first four months were spent in a wheelchair while waiting for the shrinkage of his leg that was necessary for fitting a prosthesis, but with determination and acceptance, both integral parts of Ben's personality, he adjusted to each segment of treatment and learned literally to take one step at a time. Today he walks freely, drives, works out at a gym and his gait is so normal people who do not know him well would never guess the triumph that allows him to walk wherever he chooses to go. He is now cancer free, takes medication to keep his bones strong, and goes for a check-up every six months. He also smiles a lot. | Stoebner, Dr. Benjamin Elmer (I103862)
