A Note From the Authors AC- "(a/a
-
5p- 5, At le
When writing a genealogy, one must ask the question, " Where do I
begin?" As we began compiling the history of our mothers - Rita Jane l it
Wehrle Quinn and Barbara Ann Wehrle Brubaker - we decided that the focus
for this project would be their mother: Frances Virginia Holthouse
Wehrle.
This book includes all of the information we have found thus far on
Grandma's ancestors, descendants, and cousins. Little did we know how big
this would become. Arc
We are now asking a second question, "Where does it end?"

Introduction
QUESTION: When is a Family tree more than a collected listing of

related individuals?
ANSWER: When the roots of that tree are intertwined with the
collected history of a geographic region, or community.
According to an article by Lawrence Beckmeyer (1979 History of Adams

Co., IN, pp.264-65) the first German Catholic settlers in Decatur, and
Washington Twp. included: "Henry Dierkes, Henry Minter, Joseph Smith,
Bernard Holthouse, George Fettick, John Mueller, George Spuller, Anthony
Kohne, John Closs and Henry Will." They were joined by several more
families by 1850, including Bosses, Brakes, Tonnelliers, Tettmanns,
Colchins, Meibers, and Vogelwedes.
The story of the Holthouse family is central to the story of these
early settlers. Bernard Holthouse was one of seven children who
emigrated to the United States from the village of BersenbrUck, in the
District of OsnabrUck in the modern state of Niedersachsen (Lower
Saxony), Germany. Three of his sisters and their families soon joined him
in Decatur, including Marianne Tettmann, Margaret Bosse, and Mary
Catherine Vogelwede. By 1865 these four families had produced 24
offspring, the majority remaining in the Adams County area, and raising
their famiies.
These children, and grandchildren, and descendents have been active in
the social, cultural and political life of Decatur; holding public
office, developing business, participating in fraternal and social
organizations, and even providing local entertainment (the Bosse Opera
House, etc.).
The story of the Holthouse family is also the story of Bersenbruck,
and those who emigrated from the lowlands of northwestern Germany to the
rich farmland of northeastern Indiana and northwestern Ohio. The wife of
Bernard Holthouse was Johanna Catharine Mescher, also of BersenbrUck, and
one of four sisters who settled in this area. She was joined by her twin
sister, Mary Elizabeth Fullenkamp; and their sisters Maria Catherina
Gertrude Hagedorn, and Anna Margaretha Knapke.
Others who emigrated from Bersenbruck, or its neighboring villages
and settled in the Adams County area include: Brakes, Meibers, Dierkes,
Boekes, Lienesches, Meyers, Hackmans, Klaphakes, and Kohnes.
While researching the Holthouse story, the co-authors were sometimes

perplexed by two questions: Why did people leave BersenbrUck in large
numbers between 1830 and 1860?; and Why did these emigrants settle ,ir1
,
Adams Co. and Mercer Co.? The answer lies in the story of Bersenbruck
itself, described briefly below.
BersenbrUck is l ocated about 15 miles north of the city of
Osnabruck. It is a lowland area, similar to the Netherlands, with
windmills, canals, and dikes designed to keep the land from being washed
away by the North Sea. It lies north of the Mittelland Canal, which
provides drainage for much of Niedersachsen State. The land saved from
the sea is rich farmland, and has been in cultivation for centuries.
Osnebrikk was at the center of the Archbishopric Principality of
OsnabrUck, an elector state of the Holy Roman Empire. It was ruled by the
Archbishop at Osnabruck, and was feudal in nature, with Churches and
Introduction (continued)
Monastic Orders controlling most of land. It became partially secularized

and placed under the control of Hannover in 1648, at the end of the
Thirty Years War.
In 1803 Hannover was taken over by Prussia, which was then defeated
i n 1806 by the French Army, under the command of Napolean. BersenbrUck
was included as part of the French Empire until 1815, when it, and all of
the former principality of OsnabrUck was returned to Hannover. A copy of
the marriage record of the grandfather of Decatur settler Gerhard Meyer
is in the possession of the co-authors (courtesy of Joseph Miller). It is
from Ankum church, three miles from BersenbrUck, and the document is
l egalized under the Code Napolean (the Law of the French Empire). Thus,
during a period of less than two hundred years, BersenbrUck was invaded,
traded and otherwise saw changes in the rulership no less than five
times. Bernard Holthouse's father, Johan Bernd Holthaus, was born in the
Archbishopric Principality of OsnabrUck. Bernard was born in the French
Empire, and his younger sisters were born in Hannover. The final irony is
that when, in 1836, Bernard emigrated from BersenbrUck, he left the
sovereignty of King George V, who also happened to be the King of Great
Britain.
Northern Germany was largely Protestant, and the only sizable
Catholic population was in the OsnabrUck area. The Catholic populace lost
some stability when the Archbishopric Principality was dissolved, and
placed under rule of a Protestant king.
Life in BersenbrUck was still very feudel in nature during the early
nineteenth century. Much of the land was still held by a few people, or
the church, (including the monastary at BersenbrUck, built in the
thirteenth century) and many residents did not own the land that they
worked. Additionally, the inheritance laws did not allow family lands to
be divided, so that only one child (usually the oldest son, see note
below*) inherited the farm. Other children were left landless. The
combination of these two factors created a population of - Heuermanner",
landless men who worked the lands of others, or looked for employment far
from the village. Many of the men in BersenbrUck traveled the thirty
miles to Holland to work in the flax and linen weaving industry,and many
families soon depended on jobs in Holland as their main income.
In about 1830 the linen industry soured. Luke Knapke writes:
Starting about 1830, handwoven linen could no longer compete with

machine woven linen and cotton. At about this time, Holland no
longer required large numbers of migrant workers. The poor were
reduced to desperate conditions. As Liwwat said, We were starving."
Furthermore, under the feudal system children were locked in the
class into which they were born. All of this contributed to the
emigration of large numbers of these humble people..."
(Liwwa Bake, p.7).
Many families in the Bersenbruck area were left with few options,
and many began to look toward the United States as a place to begin
again. A large portion of these chose northeastern Indiana and northwest
Ohio, due to the factors described below.
The Treaty of Greenville (1795) opened up land in the Northwest
2
Territory, southeast of a line from Fort Recovery, Ohio. The land north
of this line remained in Indian control until about 1830, when it was
opened for settlement. Land was offered by the U.S. government for $1.25
per acre.
According to Luke Knapke, Franz Joseph Stallo, a native of the Damme
in Oldenburg (about eight miles from BersenbrUck) arrived in Cincinnati
in 1831 or 1832, and collected a group of settlers to go north to this
new territory. They settled Stallostown, which soon was renamed Minster,
in Auglaize County, Ohio. Stallo wrote to many of his former family and
neighbors in the Neuenkirchen area, and encouraged them to emigrate to
this newly opened territory (p.10). It can be assumed that the
Holthouses, and other BersenbrUck area families heard of these
settlements, and available land, either while still in Germany or when
they arrived in Cincinnati.
Land in Adams County also became available as Treaty lands were
given up by the Indians. However, in Northern Indiana, Jean Baptiste de
Richardville, chief of the Fort Wayne area Miami tribe, determined that
individual families of Miami and other tribes should receive Lands
(Treaty of St. Mary's , Ohio -1818). Parts of Adams County were
purchased from the Wyandot Tribe in 1818, while a large portion of St.
Mary's Twp. was purchased from the Rivarre Family in 1833 by the Ewing
Brothers of Fort Wayne. The Ewings were able to purchase 1,285.63 acres
for $1.87 per acre. They then divided this into lots for sale. Similar
l and deals were struck throughout Northeast Indiana until the remaining
Native Americans were forced to leave the area. The Ewing Brothers of
Fort Wayne were again involved, serving as Indian Agents and amassing a
great fortune as they led the Miami and other tribes to Oklahoma. (1979
HIstory of Adams County, pp.45 54, also several books on the Ewings are
-
available in many libraries).

Stallo, Bernard Holthouse, and other early settlers from the
BersenbrUck area found land similar to their own native soil in Adams and
Mercer/Auglaize County.( Mercer was part of Auglaize County originally,
and was later divided.) The land was deeply forested, flat and sometimes
on the swampy-side, not very different from the lowland areas of Northern
Germany and Holland. Drainage efforts in the Wabash and Maumee Valleys
were not completely successful until the beginning of the twentieth
century. In Adams County, the Holthouse Creek drained much of Kirkland
and Washington townships, making land farmable. It was petitioned and
maintained by Peter Holthouse.
Thus, the availablity of land, settlement of other "Plattdeutsk"
from the BersenbrUck area, and similarities in the geography made Adams
and Mercer counties an attractive destination for the emigrants from
BersenbrUck. For the Catholic settlers there was also the additional
factor of a growing Diocese, based first at Bardstown, KY, then
Cincinnati, and eventually into the structure of today. A mission was
established to Decatur from St. Augustine (FW Cathedral) as early as
1 838.
*NOTE* - In the BersenbrUck area, a daughter was allowed to inherit the

family lands if there was no male heir. Also, landless men had great
3
difficulty marrying because of the land-laws. If a landless man found a

potential bride who had inherited the family land, he could then marry
her. However, land and inheritance laws both ordained that the farm would
retain the original name, and all children of the marriage would take the
name attached to the land. Thus, when the landless Johannes Bernd
Sandbrink married Maria Catherine Stolle, he became known as Bernd
Sandbrink modo Stolle. His daughter Anna Maria Catharina Henrietta was
given the last name of Stolle, which she kept until marrying Johan Bernd
Hollthuss/Holthaus. Other examples include Johan Herm zu Hoene who took
the Mescher name.

Gerhard Nicolas Fullenkamp „_)
Gerhard Nicholas Fullenkamp was born in 1803, and lived at Woltrop and
Wehbergen during his life. These villages are in Ankum Parish, only a few
miles (2-3) from Bersenbruck. He was married to Maria Deter, and was
02,, widowed. He then married Maria Elisabeth Mescher, born Feb 15, 1813 at
.
Hertmann/Quadenort, Bersenbruck Parish. She was the twin sister of

7,5 Johanna Catharina Mescher, the wife of Johan Bernd Holthaus. 3 11-i
Elizabeth Mescher and Nicholas Fullenkamp were married April 17, 1838 at
St. Vincentius, Bersenbruck. Early histories of Adams County write that
they had three children:
Dedrick or Theodor- resided at Tutingen, Germany.
Catherine- lived in Germany
/
j
ot <' Jacob Joseph- arrived in Decatur, In in 1868.
Nicholas Fullenkamp learned the distillers's trade from his father, and
passed this knowledge on to Jacob Joseph (who later became a baker, and
store owner).
A large number of Fullenkamps lived in Mercer County, Ohio during
the 1830-1850's, often residing on farms neighboring those of the Knapkes
and Hagedorns. These may have been other children from Nicholas' first
marriage, or cousins.
Jaw, When Jacob Joseph Fullenkamp arrived in Decatur, he lived with his
/ aunt and uncle, Bernard and Catherine Holthouse, and found work at the
34,1, ge neral store owned by Magdaline Klaphake Bremerkamp. He soon fell in
love with her daughter Mary Klaphoeke, (Klaphake), and married her on 18
Oct,1870 at St. Mary's, Decatur, IN. The church record incorrectly lists
the bride as Miss Mary Bremerkamp, perhaps due to her mother's last name.
Magdaline Hartman, was born 17 Dec 1822 at Algermissen, near the
city of Hannover, Germany. She came to U.S. in 1836 and lived in New York
City until 1849. She married Gerhard Klaphoeke in NY in 1838 and was
later widowed. She married John Henry Bremerkamp 5 April 1853 in Decatur.
Her Children with Gerhard Klaphoeke:

Henry-N/M
Alpheus- N/M
Joseph-N/M
Mary- married Jacob oseph Fullenkamp
With John Herman Bremerkamp:

Henry Herman-married Barbara Klueber 9 Jan 1879, St. Mary's.
Magdaline- married Ulrich Dinninger
Catherine- married E.X. Ehinger.

Martin Francis Gast
Martin Francis Gast was born approximately 1826 in France, and later
emigrated to the U.S.. He settled in Louisville Ky, and married
Catherine Tonnellier on Jan. 7, 1850. Martin served in the Union Army
during the Civil War, holding the rank of Private in Co. I, 21 Kentucky
Infantry. (source: Index to Compiled Military Service Records of
Volunteer Union Soldiers who served in Orgainzations from the State of
Kentucky, microfilm roll 10). Martin apparently died during the war,
because on Feb. 2, 1865, Catherine Tonnellier Gast filed for a Civil War
Pension as a widow (Application # 81506, Certificate # 92534). However,
Martina Barker Aldred, a Tonnellier descendant in Louisville, writes that
she found the death and burial of Martin Gast to be:
"Martin Gast 44 Years Old, died 17 Feb. 1870

Living at Clay and Shelby St. in Louisville.
Cause of death, Consumption. Buried in St. Louis Cem."
After Martin's death, Catherine Tonnelier Gast and their children
moved to Decatur, IN, where many of Catherine's Colchin and Tonnellier
relatives lived. Sometime before 1880, she took in Henry Thomas, parents
unknown, and raised him. He is listed as "adopted" in the 1880 Adams Co.

31.1 Johan Bernd Holthaus
Johan Bernd Holthaus, also known as Bernard or Barney, was born on

Aug. 5, 1812 at Hastrup, Parish Bersenbruck, Osnabruck, in what is today
the German State of Niedersachsen (Lower Saxony). This area of Northern
Germany went through numerous rulers and boundary changes,thus creating
complications for genealogy research. Bersenbruck was a part of the
Principality of Osnabruck until 1803, when the Province of Hannover took
over full control of Osnabruck. Then, in 1806, Napolean added the area of
Osnabruck, including Bersenbruck, to the French Empire.
In 1815 Hannover regained control of this area, at the same time that
Hannover itself was elevated to Kingdom status, ruled by King George the
III- also the King of England!! Thus Bernard Holthaus' father was born in
Osnabruck, Bernard was born in the French Empire, and his sisters were
born in the Kingdom of Hannover--and all of this happened in the town of
Bersenbruck. <9
Bernard's parents were Joan Herm Bernd Hollthuss, the son of Gerd
0 Henrich Hollthuss and Anna Maria Hussmann, and Maria Catherine HenrietteS 1T,
Stolle, from Hastrup, the daughter of Joannes Bernd Sandbrink modo Stollelio d
9.>0 and Maria Catherina Stolle. Her parents were married Jan. 24, 1774 at St.
Vincentius, Bersenbruck. Margret von der Haar of Bersenbruck writes that:
In the case of the Stolle-family Maria Catharina Stolle was the landowner
and Johan Bernd Sandbrink took her family-name, also the children had her
family name STOLLE."(see introduction
for more info.)
4 Bernard Holthaus arrived in New York City in May, 1836. During the
fall of 1836 he moved to Adams County, IN. He entered a tract of Govt.
timberland in Washington Twp., 2 miles west of Decatur. He built a log
house, cleared his land, and farmed there until his death in 1871.
Bernard was one of the first five Catholic settlers in Adams Co., and a
founyling member of St. Mary's parish in Decatur.
Bernard married Johanna Catherine Mescher on Sep. 9 1837, at the
Cathedral in Fort Wayne, IN (then St. Augustine parish). Catherine and
her twin sister Maria Elisabeth were born Feb. 2, 1813 at Hertmann/
Quadenort, parish Bersenbruck. Catherine emigrated to the U.S. in 1836
also, but it is not known if she traveled with her future husband. It is
known that her sister Anna Margaretha (Knapke) emigrated from Bersenbruck
on Aug. 15, 1836, and arrived in the fall of 1836 in the Minster, OH area
(20miles from Decatur, IN). The 1945 Family Tree created by Sr. MAry
Grace Holthouse suggests that Johanna lived in Minster, before marrying
Bernard.
Johanna Catherine Mescher Holthaus died Feb.21, 1868 in Adams Co.
-54 Bernard married Anna Rolth Brake on Oct. 13, 1868 at St. Mary's.
' Bernard died Oct. 26, 1870 and is buried in the St. Joseph Cemetery at
Decatur. Anna Rolth Brake Holthaus died Aug. 12, 1872. She and Johanna
Catherine are buried near Bernard.
It is to be assumed that Anna Rolth Brake was in some way related to
both Herman Brake and Conrad Brake, but that relationship is not certain.

Ft. Wayne Cathedral. Decatur was a mission to the Ft. Wayne church at

Clarence Francis Holthouse, Sr.
9,A
( 4
Clarence Francis Holthouse was born on 12 Dec 1884 to J.B. Holthouse
300 and Mary Gast. He was baptized on 17 Dec 1884 at St. Mary's Church in
Decatur. He worked at times s a chef and farmer. On 27 May 1912 at St.
Mary's Church in Decatur, Clarence married Alma Mary Starost (17 Aug 1890 P7-
- 28 Nov 1965), daughter of John and Eva Spuller Starost, with witnesses
11 , Felix Holthouse and Agnes Starost.
Clarence and Alma had 5 children. Evaline Mary (1913 - 1924 died of
spinal tuberculosis caused by a rollerskating accident), Frances Virginia1
(1915 - 1991), Dorothy Elizaieth (1917), Clarence Francis (1919- 1972), to LP
Mary Grace (1922). Around 199, Clarence moved his family to Ft. Wayne,
and in 1923, Clarence died. lis death has been one of the true mysteries
of this family history.
His daughter Frances said simply that he killed himself during the
Great Depression. Other stories include: he was drunk and shot himself,
he hung himself, he was depr'ssed and shot himself, and he was upset over
losing his chickens to chickm hawks and shot himself. Newspaper articles
did not support any of the family rumors. According to the Ft. Wayne
Journal Gazette, Clarence had been arrested for passing bad checks and
taken to the Ft. Wayne Jail. There he was stripped searched and found to
have a bottle of spirits of amonia. He was then placed in a back cell for
holding while a front cell was being cleaned for him. Moments later the
jailkeeper went to escort Clarence to the cleaned cell only to find him
half dead with an empty vial marked strychnine laying on the floor beside
him. By the time the ambulan:e reached St. Joseph's Hospital in Ft.
Wayne, Clarence was dead. He died 14 Aug 1923 and was buried in St.
Joseph's Cemetery in Decatur on 17 Aug 1923. A follow up article in the
newspaper suggested that the•e would be an investigation into the death
because the bottle was not large enough to contain sufficient strychnine
to cause death." No more articles could be found on the matter. Several
family members in Decatur believe that Clarence had in fact been
murdered. One neighbor of the family recalled her father wondering if
Alma really knew how Clarence died. The circumstances of his death remain
a mystery.

4 John Henry Bernard "JB" Holthouse
/ John Henry Bernard "J.B." Holthouse was born Feb.27, 1855 to

,7
34 3-N Bernard Holthaus and Johanna Catherine Mescher Holthaus. He was baptized
at St. Mary's Church in Decatur on Mar. 25, 1853. His godparents were
Herman Bosse and Mary Ann Tettmann, his uncle and aunt.
J.B. began clerking in the drug store of Dr. Dorwin at the age of 16
yrs. He studied the drug business well and made it his profession. When
Dorwin died J.B. succeeded him in business, and ran the store for several
years with different partners. Later he owned other drug stores and at
the time of his death there was still a Holthouse Drug Company, though he
had no active connection with it. Included in his various business
interests were a cement business in Bluffington, store buildings in
Decatur, a livery barn, and several farms in both Indiana and Ohio.
The editorial from the Daily Democrat at the time of J.B.'s death
read: The death of John B. Holthouse removes from this community a man
who has been conspicuous in the banking and business life here for many
years. (He was director and vice president of the First National Bank of
Decatur.) He was industrious, careful and successful. He watched public
officials, studied the workings of the local governmental machinery and
had the courage, ability and took Op time to advise and assist when and
where he could. He accumulated muchqhis world's goods and while it may
not have been generally known was one of the most liberal and charitable
men of the city, giving to every worthy cause and always without blare of
Z) 1j trumpet, his donation being usually sent in a blank envelope.... There
• zt_ was much in his life to be admired and his death is mourned by many
besides his near relatives. It is a fitting tribute that business in
1:.Decatur cease during the last services for this good citizen."
Oc J.B. first married Mary Gast. They applied for a marriage license on
-n 2 May 1880 and were listed as married in the 1880 census taken 4 June
1880; however, the licensed was never filed with the county offices. They
had eight children, namely: Louis Anthony (1882), Clarence Francis
(1884), Mary Catherine (1887), twins -Anthony and unknown (1889- died as
infants), Frances Cecilia (1891 -mentally retarded- died at age 17),
Felix William (1893), and Catherine Gertrude (1895 - became Sister Mary
Grace). Mary the mother of this family died in 1896 when Catherine was "71 1
only 1 yr old.
J.B. needed help with his young brood and he found that help in Mary
Reuland. They married at St. Mary's in Decatur on 15 Jan 1898 with
witnesses Clement Holthouse and Julia Reuland. They, too, had eight
children. These children were Jesse Barbara (1899), John Bernard (1901),
Henry Charles (1902 - died at age 6mos), Margaret Agnes (1904 -owned a
successful car dealership in Decatur), Hugh Aloysius (1906), Helen
Elizabeth (1908), Maria Louisa (1910 -died at age 2yrs), and Robert
Joseph (1913). Then J.B. died of liver cancer in 1915, leaving Mary alone
with a large family. Fortunately, the children of the first family were
old enough to fend for themselves so Mary had only her lot to look after.
She died in 1953 at the age of 85.

Nikolaus Kolchen " The Mor aus Teting"
Nickolas Kolchen, also known as Nikolas "Der Mor aus Teting", was
born circa 1600 in Teting-sur-Nied (Teting on the river Nied) in what is
now France. Teting-sur- Nied is about half-way between Metz, France, and
Saarbrucken, Germany. It is within the department of Lorraine, called
Lothringen in German. This is the much-disputed border area between
France and Germany, along with nearbye Alsace.
We do not know the exact meaning of Nikolas' title "the Mor from
Teting". "Mor" as written is not a German word, even though the rest of
the name is German. It could be a misspelling of Mauerer--a brick or
stone mason. Or it could be a misspelling of Moor--a person of Andalusian
(Spanish or African Islamic ) descent. In French, "mor" means Moor.
His son, Nikolaus Colchen II (1640-1710) was also known as " Morr",
or" Nigono". Nigono is not a modern word in either French or German. It
may be a bad reading of "Nicolo" a pet name of Nikolaus, or of "negoce",
French for business or trade. Then again it might be a mispelling of
"Nigaud" French for Fool or Simpleton (but probably not).
Nikolaus Colchen II was employed as a weber, or weaver in Teting.
His son Nikolaus Colchen III (1677-1740) was employed as a Tobacco
merchant in Bisten, Lorraine, west of SaarLouis. Nikolaus Colchen IV
(1701-1740) also lived at Bisten, where he was a "gerber" a tanner or
leather maker. He died at age 39 in 1740, the same year that his parents,
Nikolaus III, and Anna Maria Henriquelle Colchen died as well. (cause of
death for all three unknown).
Johann Nikolaus Colchen, son of Nikolaus IV lived from 1727-1772 in
Bisten, Lorraine. He was not employed, listed as a "Rentner", a pensioner
or an individual of independent means.
His son, Nikolaus Colchen (1758-1814) was born in Bisten, and lived
in the nearby village of Falck. He was employed as a "Kufer"- a cooper,
or metalsmith. He married Anna Maria Klein sometime before 1787.
His daughter, Barbara Colchin (1791-1831) married Johan Tonnellier, who
was remarried after her death to Anna Wirth. Johan, Anna and his children
emigrated to the U.S. in 1846. Barbara's children John and Nicholas
Tonnellier settled in Decatur, while Johan, daughter Catherine
Tonnellier, and his children from his second marriage settled at
Louisville, KY. Catherine and Johan both eventually moved to Decatur as
well.

Johann "John" Tonnellier
John was born in Felsburg, Alsace-Lorraine on 26 May 1798. On 1 Jul

1820 he married Barbara Colchin. After her death he remarried on 23 Apr
1831 to Anna Wirth. In 1846 he and his family left Felsburg for America.
By 1848 he was living in Decatur, IN where he is listed as a gdpt. He
died 15 Apr 1876 in Louisville, KY.
His parents where Peter Tonnellier and Katharina Dutt. Katharina (b.
26 Mar 1762) was a daughter of Peter Doute and Elizabeth Beck. Her
siblings were: Peter (b. 7 Feb 1759), Maria (b. 29 Sep 1760), Jakob (b.
10 Sep 1764), Johann Peter (b. 4 Jun 1766), Marianne (b. 24 Feb 1768),
and twins Ludwig and Anna (b. 25 Jul 1771).
Peter Tonnellier was a son Johann Adolf Tonnellier and Maria
Capitaine. Maria was born 24 Feb 1732 to Johann Capitaine and Anna
Katharina Haas. Because of Johann Capitaine's several offices he also is
listed with the surnames Dilcont, Le Compt (of the count), and Der Junge
(the young). However, his children all went by the name Capitaine.
Maria's siblings are: Lambert (b. 2 Dec 1717), Johann (b. 12 Apr 1720),

Johann Gerhard Heinrich Vogeiwedde
Johann Gerhard Heinrich Vogelwedde was born Nov 19 1818 at Hastrup,

Parish Bersenbruck, Osnabruck. His parents were Johan Herm Vogeiwedde nee
Woistmann, and Maria Elisabeth Kreke. He emigrated to the U.S. in 1845,
0 and married Maria Catherina Holthaus in Fort Wayne, IN at the Cathedral
3 on 15 Sep 1845. The marriage was witnessed, according to the church
record, by " Holthaus her brother and Meiber the oldest son."
Family legend suggests that the Vogelwedes were large landowners,
and that John Bernd Holthaus (Maria Catherine's Brother) was a servant to
the "Von Vogelwedes" (1945 family tree). Well, apparently Johann Gerhard
fell in love with the maid, and throwing away his inheritance,
he left the manor, moved to Decatur, and married her. Research from
Bersenbruck has thus far failed to corroborate this story.
Mary Catherine and Johan Gerhard Heinrich had 13 children:
