A Lintner and Hoehn Link Up

July 31, 2021

Today’s highlighted couple had consecutive birthdays. The bride’s birthday was yesterday, and the groom’s is today. I will begin by looking at today’s birthday boy. Louis George Lintner was born on July 31, 1873, making today his 148th birthday. Louis was the son of John and Margaret (Bergmann) Lintner. He was baptized at Peace Lutheran … More A Lintner and Hoehn Link Up

Emanuel and His Pauline’s

July 30, 2021

I will confess right away that I am taking a little bit of liberty with a name in order to have a clever title. Emanuel’s first wife was definitely a Pauline. However, his second wife had one of her names as Pauline, but she went by her other name, Sarah. I will also state that … More Emanuel and His Pauline’s

John Finds a Martha

July 27, 2021

Gotthilf Johannes Lorenz is the one who has a birthday today. Almost all of the documents for him call him John. He was born on July 27, 1873, the son of August and Justine (Franke) Lorenz. John’s parents are pictured below. John was the 9th of 11 children born into this Lorenz family. The first … More John Finds a Martha

Another Martin and Martha

July 26, 2021

I discovered that, among the 1700+ posts that have been published on this blog, a title has shown up a few other times. There are already two other posts titled, Martin and Martha, and another one titled, Martha and Martin. So, when I found another husband and wife who were named Martin and Martha today, … More Another Martin and Martha

Maria Enters New Jerusalem

July 25, 2021

Today’s story highlights a special birthday to celebrate. Maria Augusta Koenig would have been 150 years old if she was still alive today. She was born on July 25, 1871, the daughter of Zacharias and Mariana (Ackermann) Koenig. Maria’s baptism record is found in the books of Immanuel Lutheran Church in Altenburg. That record is … More Maria Enters New Jerusalem

Migrations and Marriages of a Machinist

July 24, 2021

Karl Benjamin Kassel will be the main character in today’s tale. His birthday was July 24, 1890, making today his 131st birthday. Karl would later use the “Americanized” name of Charles, and even Charlie. Karl was the son of Christian and Sulamith (Hopfer) Kassel, whose story was told in the post, Kids from a Kassel. Karl … More Migrations and Marriages of a Machinist

Perryville Prevallet Jeweler

July 23, 2021

Today’s story begins with an End. Our birthday girl is Anna Barbara End, who was born on July 23, 1877. This girl would later be called Annie. She was the daughter of Gabriel and Barbara (Hausmann) End. Annie was baptized at Immanuel Lutheran Church in Perryville, Missouri. A transcription of her baptism record is shown … More Perryville Prevallet Jeweler

J.G. Palisch’s Baby Girl

July 22, 2021

Johann Gottlieb Palisch and his wife, Johanna (Kaempfe) Palisch, came to America as part of the Gesellschaft that arrived in Perry County in 1839. He came aboard the ship, Johann Georg, with 6 children. You could make the argument that this couple came with 7 children because Johanna was pregnant during the voyage. Their 7th … More J.G.

This week at the Museum…

July 21, 2021

Each day at the Museum brings a different story. The last couple of weeks we’ve enjoyed stories with a wide variety of focus. Family with area roots that know that we will respect and care for their family heirlooms, tourists that are just passing through Southeast Missouri and heard that this is a “good place … More This week at the Museum…

Amanda and Audie – Another Vogel Pair

July 20, 2021

When I began my search through our German Family Tree for an event that took place on this particular date, I didn’t expect that search to land on the same Vogel family that was highlighted in yesterday’s post. As it turns out, not only will you read another Vogel story today, but it contains facts … More Amanda and Audie – Another Vogel Pair
