5947	The details of this man's existence lacks documentary evidence, but is based on assumptions. Hermanda (Lagemann) Fiegenbaum of Münster, Germany writes that records of the evangelical church in Ladbergen prior to 1707 no longer exist. The first reference to the Fiegenbaums occurs in 1715 with the brief mention of the death of "old Fiegenbaum's wife." The absence of any given names for this woman is thought to be an indication that there was at that time only one family with that surname residing in Ladbergen; further identity was not necessary. That the husband himself is not mentioned in the written record leads to the conclusion that he was born and died prior to 1707. It is not known whether further research will add more details to this story. The Fiegenbaums appear to have belonged to a social class that did not leave many literary records.

5992	The following are transcriptions supplied by Frances Gretchen (Klein) Leenerts of obituaries for George Leonard Wellemeyer which she reported had appeared on 13 April 1932 in local Iowa newspapers, as noted. Klemme Times and Britt Tribune George Leonard Wellemeyer was born 8 October 1865 on a farm near Wapello, Iowa. He was the seventh of a family of nine children, six sons and three daughters born to his parents, Henry F. Wellemeyer and his wife Catherine (nee) Fiegenbaum. Mr. Wellemeyer received the instruction of his childhood years in the common schools of Wapello, and later attended a few terms in the Academy at Garner, which at that time was managed by Professors Worden and Polock. For two years he attended Western College at Mt. Pleasant, Iowa. George Wellemeyer taught school in Hancock County for several years. It happened that he was the first teacher to serve the Will Stille District two miles west of Klemme. His life work, however, was that of a printer. He moved often, and several times tried other work but always came back to the print shop which was the work he liked best. He worked on the Garner Democrat for many years. He owned at one time a paper and print shop at Cope, Colorado. He started the Iowa Valley Press at Helmond. He was at one time editor of the Klemme Times and for a few years owned and operated the Britt Tribune and for a number of years was at Harris, Iowa. He carried mail and owned and operated the Harris Herald which later he consolidated with the Ocheydan Press. After moving to Ocheydan, he and his son, Leonard, operated this paper for several years. Mr. Wellemeyer was Mayor of Ocheydan for two terms. It was here that he affiliated himself with Silver Cord Lodge 525 A.F. & A.M. At the time of his demise he was operating a movie theater at Afton, Iowa. The departed was married in the year 1899 to Aurilla Sage of Garner, Iowa. From this union came three sons, Leonard, Lyle and Mahion. His wife preceeded him in death in the year 1903. In the year 1910 the departed again married; this time to Mrs. Emma Town of Spirit Lake, Iowa. To them one son, Roland, was born. In his younger days, the work of the print shop being quite confining, Mr. Wellemeyer found recreation in hunting and fishing and in playing baseball. The departed was an optimist, generous to a fault with those he loved, and a friend to every man. One of his favorite poems was:      Let me live in a house by the side of the road, where the race of men go by.      Some are good and some are bad -- wise -- foolish. So am I.      Then why should I sit on the scorners bench or hurl the cynics bomb      Let me live in a house by the side of the road and be a friend to man. Mr. Wellemeyer was always in good health until about a year ago when he noticed some irregularity of the heart, which did not seem to get much better or much worse. Suddenly he felt an unusual pain in the region of his heart. A doctor was called but he died within the hour. This was early Friday morning the 8th of April. He had reached the age of 66 years, 5 months and 29 days. He leaves of his immediate family his wife, Mrs. Emma Wellemeyer of Afton, Iowa; four sons: Roland of Afton; Leonard of Pipestone, Minnesota; Lyle and Mahlon of Baltimore, Maryland; five grandchildren and one brother Charles L. Wellemeyer of Wichita, Kansas and one sister Mrs. Mary Addicks of Warrenton, Missouri. Funeral services were conducted by Rev. Whyte in Klemme at the home of Arthur Wellemeyer, a nephew of the deceased. The Masons were in charge of the services at the Garner Cemetery. Garner Leader      The body of George L. Wellemeyer was brought to Garner for burial Sunday, 10 April, and placed in the family lot in Evergreen Cemetery. Mr. Wellemeyer passed from this earth at his home at Afton, Iowa early Friday morning, 8 April, the result of a heart attack. Mr. Wellemeyer was operating a movie theater at Afton at the time of his death. George Wellemeyer will be remembered by a large number of Leader and Signal readers. For many years he was a resident of Garner and Hancock County. In early life he learned the printing business and followed that profession for 40 years at least. He managed or owned papers in Garner, Britt, Goodell, Klemme, Crystal Lake, and we believe, Corwith. During those years, he naturally gained a wide acquaintance throughout the county. He was born on a farm near Wapello, Iowa 8 October 1865. When but a child, he came to this county with his parents, Mr. and Mrs. H. F. Wellemeyer. The original Wellemeyer estate is what is now the home of Mr. and Mrs. C. U. Smith, in southwest Garner. Here George resided when a growing boy. When the Northern Iowa Normal College was a flourishing institution under the management of the Rev. Samuel I. Lindsay and Professors Pollock and Worden, George was a student there. He taught in the rural schools of our county for several terms. In the year 1899 he was married to Aurilla Sage of Garner.      To this union three sons were born: Leonard, Lyle and Mahlon. The mother of these boys died many years ago. Mr. Wellemeyer married again, this time to Mrs. Emma Town, of Spirit Lake. To this union one son, Roland, was born. He operated a newspaper at Spirit Lake for years and then moved to Harris, Iowa. Later he consolidated his Harris publication with the Ocheydan Press and he and his son, Leonard, operated the Press for many years. He served the town of Ocheydan as mayor for two terms, and while a resident of that town, and while a resident of that town he became affiliated with the Masonic Fraternity, and that body was in charge of the burial, which took place in Garner Sunday afternoon, 10 April. The Rev. David J. Lewis, pastor of the local United Presbyterian Church, read the Masonic burial ritual at the grave. Previous to bringing the body to Garner, a funeral service was held at the home of his nephew, Arthur Wellemeyer, at Klemme. There were nine children in the family of Mr. and Mrs. H. F. Wellemeyer. Three daughters and six sons. Of this number two are still living: Mrs. Mary Addicks of Warrenton, Missouri and Charles Wellemeyer of Wichita, Kansas. His wife and four sons survive: Mrs. Wellemeyer and Roland of Afton, Iowa; Leonard of Pipestone, Minnesota; Lyle and Mahlon of Baltimore, Maryland. Deceased had been in good health until about one year ago, when heart disease developed.	Wellemeyer, George Leonard (I280)
5993	The following biographical sketch was published in the History of Auglaize County, Ohio in 1923. Frederick W. Schroer, Sr., one of Washington township's veteran farmers and proprietor in association with his son Fred, of a well improved place east of New Knoxville, rural mail route No. 3 out of St. Marys, was born on that place and has lived there all his life, a period of nearly seventy-five years, during which time he has witnessed the development of that region from its pioneer state. Mr. Schroer was born on October 13, 1848, a few months after the formal organization of Auglaize county, and is a son of H. H. and Christine (Feggenbaum [sic]) Schroer, natives of Germany, who came to this country following their marriage and for a time thereafter made their home in Cincinnati, presently coming up into this section of Ohio where they spent the remainder of their lives. H. H. Schroer was a tailor by trade and upon locating at Cincinnati following his arrival in this country set up as a tailor and was for a few years thus engaged in that city. He then became attracted to the possibilities awaiting land settlement up in this part of Ohio and came up here and bought a small farm in Shelby county and started in clearing the place and getting a start as a farmer. Some years later he disposed of his holding there and moved up into Auglaize county and bought a farm of eighty acres in the New Knoxville neighborhood, where he established his home and spent the rest of his life. His widow survived him for some years increasing her holdings to 120 acres. They were the parents of eight children, of whom the subject of this sketch, the seventh in order of birth, now is the only survivor, the others having been Herman, William, Henry, Ernst, Adolph, Elizabeth and Christina. Reared on the home farm in Washington township, Frederick W. Schroer received his schooling in the locals schools. He continued farming with his father until the latter's death and thereafter for some time managed the place in his mother's behalf. He then bought the home tract of 120 acres and began to farm on his own account and has ever since made his home there. Since taking possession of that place, Mr. Schroer has made extensive improvements and has a well equipped farm plant. He also has increased his land holdings until he now owns 160 acres there, besides a farm of 140 acres in Mercer county, and is very comfortably situated. He is a Republican and has rendered public service as a director of schools in his district. He and his family are members of the Reformed church at New Knoxville and he has served as deacon of that congregation. Mr. Schroer married Mary Fledderjohann, daughter of Henry Fledderjohann and a member of the well known pioneer family of that name in Washington township, and to that union six children were born, Wilhelmina, Henry (deceased), Sophia, Louise, Fred, Jr., and Mary, all of whom married save Sophia, who is at home. The mother of these children died on September 29, 1912. Wilhelmina Schroer married William Warner and has one child, a daughter Luella. The late Henry Schroer married Emma Fenneman and died leaving one child, a son, Harry. Louise Schroer married William Soerhoff and has two children, Ada and Mary. The junior Fred Schroer, who is now farming in partnership with his father, married Sophia Hoge and has two children, Marcella and Enoch, and Mary Schroer married Henry Vohs and has three children, Rinehart, Leonard and Olga.

5995	The following is a biographical sketch of Philip Ernst Winter published in 1916 in A Standard History of Oklahoma, by Joseph B. Thoburn.      Many of the older states of the Union have contributed to the personnel of the bar of Oklahoma, and the representative lawyer whose name initiates this review claims Illinois as the state of his nativity, passed his childhood and youth in Iowa, and came to Oklahoma from Washington, D.C., where he had served for eight years as an assistant attorney in the office of the assistant attorney-general for the department of the interior. Mr. Winter is engaged in the successful practice of his profession in Oklahoma City, where he maintains his offices at 616 Terminal Building, and he has been a resident of this city since the autumn of 1910.      Philip Ernst Winter was born in the City of Chicago, Illinois, on the 1st of November, 1859, and is a son of Wilhelm and Wilhelmina (Fiegenbaum) Winter, both natives of Germany. In 1844, shortly before the memorable exodus of the refugees of the German revolution to America was instituted, Wilhelm Winter's parents immigrated to the United States, accompanied by all of their children except their eldest son, and the family disembarked in the City of New Orleans, whence the voyage was continued up the Mississippi River to St. Louis, and settlement was made in Warren County, Missouri. Wilhelm Winter was a young man at the time of the family immigration to America and it was soon afterward his privilege to give significant assurance of his loyalty to the land of his adoption - a country that has had much to gain from its valuable German element of citizenship, both in past and present generations. Early in 1846 Wilhelm Winter tendered his services as a soldier in the Mexican war. In the City of St. Louis he enlisted in a cavalry regiment of volunteers, and soon afterward proceeded with his command to the state of polemic activities. He was with his regiment in the command of Gen. Winfield Scott when that gallant leader entered the City of Mexico, and he took part in various engagements marking the progress of the conflict between the United States and Mexico, his service having continued until the close of the war.      After victory had crowned the arms of the United States, Mr. Winter, a youthful veteran of the war, returned to his home in Warren County, Missouri, in which state he remained until 1852, when he immigrated to Iowa and became one of the pioneer settlers of Louisa County, where he had been granted a tract of government land in recognition of his services in the Mexican war. He vigorously instituted the reclamation of this land and continued his activities as one of the pioneer farmers of the Hawkeye State until 1856, when he severed his association with the great basic industry of agriculture and, with characteristic zeal and ability, prepared himself for the ministry of the German Methodist Episcopal Church, as a clergyman of which denomination he labored with all of consecrated devotion and fruitful results for a quarter of a century, his first charge having been Rock Island, Illinois, and his last, Davenport, Iowa. He was a man of broad intellectual ken and lofty ideals, the sincere friend of humanity, and his gracious and kindly personality drew to him the staunchest of friends and confidence and esteem of all who come within the sphere of his influence. He died at Davenport, Iowa, in 1882, and his memory shall be held in lasting honor through his effective services as a soldier of his adopted country and of the church militant.      Mrs. Wilhelmina (Fiegenbaum) Winter proved a devoted wife and helpmeet to her husband and was ever earnest in her co-operation in and sympathy with his zealous labors in the uplifting of humanity. She was but an infant at the time of her parents' immigration from Germany to America, in 1833, and here she was reared and educated. This noble woman, now venerable in years, maintains her home at South Omaha, Nebraska, with her youngest daughter, who is principal of one of the public schools of that city.      Philip E. Winter acquired his early education in the pioneer schools of Iowa and in pursuance of higher academic discipline he finally was matriculated in the Iowa Wesleyan University, at Mount Pleasant, in which institution he was graduated in 1878, with the degree of bachelor of arts, and from which he later received, in 1881, the degree of master of arts, the intervening period having been by him devoted to successful work as a teacher in the public schools: he taught one year in a district school in Logan County, Illinois, and two years in the grade schools at Beardstown, that state. In consonance with his ambition and well formulated plans for his future career, Mr. Winter then entered the Union College of Law in the City of Chicago, and in this institution he was graduated as a member of the class of 1883, of which Hon. William Jennings Bryan likewise was a member, and he duly received his well earned degree of bachelor of laws. Mr. Winter may consistently be designated a natural student, and is known for his high academic and professional attainments and for his keen appreciation of the best literature of general and professional order.      On the 1st of November, 1883, Mr. Winter entered upon his professional novitiate by engaging in practice at Wymore, Gage County, Nebraska, where he built up a substantial law business and where he served three terms as city attorney. He continued to be numbered among the leading members of the bar of Gage County until April, 1891, when he entered a broader field of endeavor by removing to the City of Omaha, where his ability and insistent devotion to the work of his profession gained him a large and representative clientage. He remained a valued and popular member of the Omaha bar for ten years, and within this period served four years as deputy county attorney, besides having given effective service as a member of the board of education of the Nebraska metropolis.      Mr. Winter continued his successful professional labors at Omaha until in August, 1900, when he was appointed as assistant to the United States attorney general for the Interior Department and removed to the national capital, where he served as a legal representative of the Department of the Interior until 1910, when he retired from his government post. In November of that year Mr. Winter came to Oklahoma and established his residence at Oklahoma City, where he has since held high vantage ground as one of the representative members of the bar of the new commonwealth and where he controls a large and important law business, in connection with which he practices in all the State and Federal courts.      Though independent in politics and not in the least constrained by partisan lines, Mr. Winter permitted himself to be nominated as the candidate of the progressive party for the office of judge of the thirteenth judicial district of the state in the election of 1914, but he was defeated, with the other local candidates of the newly created political party. Mr. Winter is affiliated with the Masonic fraternity, as well as the Phi Delta Theta college and Phi Delta Phi law school fraternities, and while attending the law college in the City of Chicago he there served two years as a member of the fine old First Infantry Regiment of the Illinois National Guard. Both he and his wife are members of the First Methodist Episcopal Church in their home city, where their circle of friends is coincident with that of their acquaintances.      Mr. Winter has manifested specially deep interest in and appreciation of the best traditions of the land of his forbears and especially in the lives and labors of the sterling German element that has wielded powerful influence in the furtherance of civic and material progress and prosperity in the United States. His interest has found concrete exemplification, in that for several years past he has been devoting earnest attention to the authoritative compilation of a history of the German people in the United States, a work to which he is bringing his fine intellectual powers and literary ability, so that the published edition when issued is certain to become a valuable contribution to American history.      On June 3, 1884, was solemnized the marriage of Mr. Winter to Miss Alta S. Kauffman, of Mount Pleasant, Iowa. She is a descendant of Michael Kauffman, a Swiss Huguenot, who immigrated to America in 1707 and settled in Lancaster County, Pennsylvania.      In Oklahoma City the pleasant and hospitable home of Mr. and Mrs. Winter is at 1636 West Fortieth Street. They have four children, concerning whom brief data are given in conclusion of this article: Max Wilhelm is a special agent for the United States General Land Office, with official headquarters at Cheyenne, Wyoming; Jean Grace is a successful and popular teacher in the public schools at Perry, the judicial center of Noble County, Oklahoma; Gladys Kauffman is the wife of Harold F. Bradburn, contract agent of the Pioneer Telephone & Telegraph Company, at Oklahoma City; and Winifred Else is a student in the University of Missouri, where she is a member of the class of 1917.

5997	The following is a transcription of an obituary for Clara (Spohn) Steffgen provided by Jane Michel, who reported that the obituary was published by The Nebraska Signal, of Geneva, Fillmore County, Nebraska, on 28 July 1966.           Clara Steffgen Former Genevan Dies In Oregon      "Clara M. Steffgen, former Fillmore county resident, passed away at the General Hospital in Albany, Ore., July 21, 1966, at the age of 68. She became ill shortly after arising the day before and entered the hospital. Next day she suffered a heart attack that proved fatal. She had been the housekeeper for St. Mary's Catholic church rectory in Albany the past 14 years.      "Clara Marie Braden was born at Utica, Neb., May 7, 1898. The family moved to Fillmore county in her youth and she received her education in the schools in this county. She was married to Henry Steffgen at Grafton June 20, 1919, by Rev. B. Sproll. She resided near Grafton and in Geneva until she moved to Albany, Ore., in 1936. She was a member of the Catholic Daughters of America and had taken part in many church activities since living there.      "Survivors include one daughter, Mrs. W. E. Fiegenbaum of Albany; three sons, Michael of Salem, Ore., Paul of Waukegan, Ill., and Lawrence of Erling, Cal.; three sisters, Mrs. H. H. O'Donnell of Omaha, Neb., Mrs. Frank Collicotte of Grand Junction, Col., and Mrs. Larry Ayres of Albany; two half-brothers, John Spohn and Bill Spohn of Antioch, Cal., and 11 grandchildren.      "Requiem Mass was celebrated Saturday at 10 a.m. at St. Mary's church in Albany, Father Martin W. Doherty officiating. Interment was in Willamette Memorial park.      "Mrs. Steffgen's sister Josie, Mrs. Collicotte, had been visiting in Albany on a vacation trip and the two had had a good visit. The son Lawrence came from Erling, Cal., for the service, bringing Susan Fiegenbaum, who had been visiting there."      According to the Fillmore County, Nebraska record of the marriage of Clara and Henry W. Steffgen, Clara's maiden name was Spohn. The maiden name mentioned in this obituary is actually the maiden name of Clara's mother.      It should be noted that the county record of the marriage contains many internal contradictions. According to the document, the marriage occurred on either June 19 or 20 at either Geneva or Grafton, Nebraska. Although the document does at one place give the year of the marriage as 1919 (the year also reported in the obituary), all of the remaining mentions of the year of the marriage in the county marriage record uses 1916.

5999	The following is a transcription supplied by Frances Gretchen (Klein) Leenerts of a wedding announcement for Wilbur Foster Bickell and Agnes Viola Wellemeyer which she reported had appeared on Thursday, 19 June 1915 in the Hancock County Democrat. This paper was published in Garner, Iowa. On last Thursday morning at 10:30 occurred the wedding of Mr. Foster Bickell of Leavenworth, Washington to Miss Viola Wellemeyer of this city. Rev. A. C. Panziau tying the knot uniting this young couple in the journey through life. There were about twenty-five friends and relatives of both parties present at the ceremony and for the bounteous wedding dinner prepared for them by the bride's mother, Mrs. E. M. Wellemeyer. The bride is well known to Garner people, having resided in Garner most of her life with the exception of a few years she was away teaching. She is a very accomplished young lady along various vocations one of which is music. She is a graduate of Garner High School and took place in many social functions in the church which she belonged to. Previous to her marriage a large number of her girl friends gave several showers in her honor, she receiving many beautiful and useful gifts. The groom formerly resided at Giard, Iowa, and has been teaching the past year at Leavenworth, Washington. He is a very refined gentleman and no doubt will make a very good companion. We are not personally acquainted with him but we have heard from those who know that he is a man of sterling quality and morality. The happy couple left on the Milwaukee evening train east for a visit with relatives in the eastern part of the state and will later go on to Leavenworth, Washington where they will make their future home. The Democrat joins their many friends in wishing the couple a most happy and prosperous future.	Family F1876
6000	The following is a transcription supplied by Frances Gretchen (Klein) Leenerts of an article for Elmer H. Wellemeyer which she reported had appeared on Wednesday, 1 August 1951 in the Garner Leader. Elmer H. Wellemeyer, one time Garner farm boy, who is now vice-president of Cities Service Oil Company, is the subject of a lengthy article in the current issue of the Cities Service Company magazine. Wellemeyer was graduated from Garner High School a few years before World War I. Upon graduation he taught Liberty Township School Number Two, according to his cousin, Arthur Wellemeyer of Klemme. Elmer Wellemeyer is the son of the late Mr. and Mrs. Ed Wellemeyer of Garner. His mother died at Washington, Iowa in October of 1950, and is buried in Concord Cemetery here. His father died several years ago. He has one sister, Viola Bickell of Washington, Iowa. The magazine article is an old fashioned success story of a farm boy who made good in the big city. We quote "Picture a pre-machine-age farm, circa 1910. The only tractor a sway-back horse. The only milking machine, a small boy named Elmer -- his hands already muscular from the job of milking eight cows night and morning -- farm life was no bed of hay in those days. 'I had college dinned into me -- oh, as far back as I can remember,' says Wellemeyer. 'Dad had a flock of brothers -- a bishop, a publisher, a professor, a musician and a merchant. Mother said what they could do I could do. Since everybody agreed that chemical enginering held the promise of a big future, I went to Iowa State to see if they could make a chemical engineer out of me.' This was Iowa State's first class in chemical engineering, and according to Wellemeyer probably its best. For the students not only made wallboard out of cornstalks and extracted acid from cornstalks, but set up the equipment for their experiments. It was here that Wellemeyer made his first analysis of lubricating oil. 'Today's oil engineers seem to think they are doing something new when they road-tested lube oils in one of the first automobiles in my part of Iowa -- and I wrote my first major thesis on the results.' World War I snatched Elmer from college. When the war ended, he finished at Iowa State, answered a newspaper ad for a chemical engineer, and his work as an oil man began in earnest. He invented and patented several stills, to expedite his work of analyzing Mexican crude oil. He was then given a job as chief chemical engineer of a refinery in Tampico, Mexico. But halfway to Tampico, he was transferred to Good Hope, Louisana where he first came in contact with Cities Service. Later he was asked to take over the laboratory of the refinery of a Cities Service subsidiary. In 1931 he was sent to India to check on the interests of a company connected with Cities Service. After his India assignment, he returned to Texas and Louisiana, where he opened the Houston office of Cities Service. During World War II Wellemeyer's executive capacities were instrumental in setting up a new refinery on the Gulf coast to produce aviation gasoline for the government. He was noted for his ability to slash through red tape. After the war he was sent to New York and became assistant to Hi Brandli, vice-president in charge of the Cities Service export department. Soon Brandli was made general manager of the company, and Wellemeyer was elected vice-president. As a vice-president Wellemeyer's secretary characterizes him with one word: determine. No use telling him a thing can't be done, because he'll step right in and prove you are wrong by doing it himself. His methods are often unorthodox -- but they work. Wellemeyer starts his day at 4:30 a.m. by helping milk cows on his New Jersey farm before going to his city office. Once a farmer, always a farmer, Wellemeyer states. He launches into an enthusiastic description of his dairy farm, its head of Guernsey cows, 40 head of beef cattle -- and his Reserve Champion bull of the state of New Jersey last year. Wellemeyer's son, William, is his farm manager, with very able assistance from his younger son, John. 'My daughter, Marilyn, has the brains of the family. Four colleges offered her scholarships. She chose to finish at the Sorbonne -- on another scholarship.' Elmer Wellemeyer has a genius for friendship. An incident is recounted which shows he was a vocational ag teacher in his own way, back at Liberty number two. He was teaching eight grades in a one-room schoolhouse for the salary of $52.80 a month. When the time came to teach arithmetic, he threw away the book -- literally. He reasoned this way: his boys were farm boys and would probably be farmers all their lives. So he took them out to a cornfield and taught them arithmetic by the number of rows of corn, number of stalks to a hill, number of ears to a stalk. He opened account books for the boys, borrowed money for them (on paper of course) and set them up in business. This was long before the days of earn-as-you-learn, remember?"	Wellemeyer, Elmer Haefner (I5767)
