[NI1174] Mona and her 2nd Husband committed suicide together. The police called
Lenny on 6/12/98 to tell him.

Her husband was cancer and was dieing, they didn't tell any of the family
and Lenny was the only child. The only thing they think was the bills
were
to much for them and they just couldn't deal with it. Why she took her
life no one knows. They are hoping to get a letter in the mail
explaining the reason, for I guess there was no notes left.

See notes on Husbands file- more details.

Mona did send her only son a note with some cash in the mail.

Last summer I had a researcher in PA , do some research for me, trying to decide if there were 2 Joseph Anglemyers or one. (Joseph being the fater of Jonas) She did lots and lots of research and could only find one. Using old tax records (copies sent to me by researcher), i concluded that Joseph was possibly a son of Adam Anglemyer (2nd generation). Adam had 10-12 children and only 3 sons were mentioned in the book, A History of the Anglemyer Family in the U.S.A. by Erle C. Zimmersman. Using the tax records there was a John mentioned, and he would have had to be 21 yrs. old to own property (probably b.ca 1780), then several years later a Joseph shows up in the tax records-probably his brother. In Zimmersman's book a John B. 1780 is noted as a son of Adam. It was also speculated in Zimmersman's book that Joseph had a son Henry- dates just didn't work out for me-Henry probably was Joseph's brother (as they were having children about the same dates). Adam's 3 known sons eventually moved to Ohio (between 1809-1818), leaving Joseph and Henry in PA.

[NI1200] Came from Bucks County,PA to Elkhart County,IN 1853 and bought 80 acres of land in Harrison Township 4 1/2 miles northeasst of Wakarusa,IN

[NI1203] From: History of Elkhart County, Vol.II, by Abraham Weaver
David Anglemyer. Now living retired at Nappanee, David Anglemyer was for a
long period of years a capable and active farmer in Elkhart County, and has
earned the right to spend his later years somewhat at leisure. His own family
has lived in Elkhart County for more than sixty years, and his wife's people
came here at an even earlier date.
He was born on a farm in Medina County, Ohio, September 2,1845. His father,
Jonas Anglemyer, was born in Bucks County, Pennsylvania, and was still a child
when his father died and came with his widowed mother to Medina County, Ohio,
where a little later he was bound out and learned the carpenter's trade.
About 1853 Jonas Anglemyer brought his family to Elkhart County. At that time
Goshen was such a small village that one hotel was sufficient to accommodate
the traveling public. Locating in harrison Township, he bought eighty acres
of land 4 1/2 miles northeast of Wakarusa. The improvements comprised a log
cabin and a small patch of clearing amidst the heavy timber. Even at that
time is was not unusual for deer to run in considerable numbers through the
woods and over the prairies, and much of the meat to supply the larder of a
household was furnished by wild game. Jonas Anglemyer was a man of steady
industry and devoted many years to the clearing up of his land, but died at
the comparatively early age of forty-five years.
Jonas Anglemyer married Elizabeth Flook, who was born in Pennsylvania, and
she died about 1888. She reared ten children: Isaac, Samuel, Joseph, Eliza,
mary, David, Levi, Henry, Jonas and William. Isaac went south and was married
in Tennesee amd during the war served in the Confederate army while at least
two of his brothers were fighting on the Union side. The son Joseph was a
soldier in the Seventy-fourth Regiment of Indiana Volumteers.
David Anglemyer, who also has a military record, was eighty years (I think
they mean eight) of age when he came to Elkhart County, and he received most
of his education in the pioneer schools of Harrison Township. At the age of
nine he was bound out to Abraham Means, a farmer, and grew up in the Means
household until he was eighteen.
Still a boy in years, but with a man's responsibilities and patriotic
devotion, he enlisted in January, 1864, in Company K of the Twelfth Michigan
Volumteers, and went south and was with his regiment in various movements
until late in the fall of 1864, when on account of illness he was detailed as
nurse on a hospital boat until the spring of 1865. He then rejoined his
regiment and was active in the service, thereafter principally guard duty,
until the regiment was honorably discharged on February 15,1866, nearly a year
after the close of actual hostilities.
On returning to Elkhart County David Anglemyer took up and learned the
trade of
Carpenter. He followed that a number of years, but about 1884 settled on a
farm in Union Township and began the improvement and the general cultivation
of his land. In 1906, having a competency, he rented the farm and bought some
city property in Nappanee, where he has since lived.
In 1867 Mr.Anglemyer married Lydia Hartman. She was born in Ohio, a
daughter of Adam Hartman. Mrs. Anglemyer died in 1880. On September 7,1883,
he married Barbara Hartman. She was born in Harrison Township of Elkhart
County, July 26,1855. Her father, Valentine Hartman, was born in Germany
October 27,1806, a son of Samuel Hartman. Grandfather Hartman came to Anerica
accompanied by his family and located in Lancaster County, Pennsylvania, later
going to Ashland County, Ohio, and when quite an old man he came to Elkhart
County and spent his last days here. Mrs. Anglemyer's father was still a boy
when he came to America, was married in Pennsylvania, and lived in Ashland
County, Ohio, until 1850. Then accomapnied by his wife and five children he
made the entire journey to Elkhart County with ox teams; acquiring a tract of
timbered land in Harrison Township he built a log house and thereafter for a
number of years applied himself industriously to the clearing of his farm. In
time he cleared the entire tract, substituted substantial frame buildings for
the old log structures, and lived there honored and useful until his death at
the age of seventy-five. His wife was Mary Smelzer, who was born in
Pennsylvania, march 11,1811, and Who died at the age of seventy-six. The
Hartman children were: John, Catherine, Mary, Nancy, Peter, Valentine, Samuel,
and Barbara.
By his first marriage Mr.Anglemyer reared five children named William and
Moses, twins; Lottie, Albert and Matie. The son William married Saloma Yoder
and their five children are Pearl, Ray, William, Agnes, and Grace. The son
Moses married Della Whittle, and their three children are Mabel, Celesta and
Harry. The daughter Lottie married Leander Bigler, and they have three
children, Viola, Harry and John. Albert married Amanda Wise and has eight
children. Matie is married and has three children, Wyatt, Ralph and Harriet.
Mr. and Mrs. Anglemyer have four children: Walter, who died at the age of
twenty; Reuben, Mary and Amy. The son Reuben married Maude Ganger and has two
children, Edwin and Hubert. Mary married Noah Gingrich and has a daughter
named Marjorie Lucile. The daughter Amy is a student in the University of
Chicago. Mr. and Mrs.
Anglemyer are both active members of the Mennonite Brethren in Christ Church.

[NI1239] They were engaged in farming nearly all their lives exceting a short time after marriage spent in Colorad helping to build railroads. They moved from Kansas to Oklahoma in 1909 and continued farming in various parts of Oklahoma. They were both members of the Baptist Church.

accounts with withdrawed all the money, sent a check to the Funeral home
to have their remains creamated, then a letter to the Coronor to tell
them where
they could pick up a couple of bodies. By law they had to find out why
they
died, they openned him up and found that his Body was filled with cancer.
She write a letter to her son explaining that she just couldn't live
without him.
So they both got in the car ran a hose from the exhaust to the inside of
the car
and killed themselves.

She son was an old child, but he had 3 or 4 children by another marriage,
that
he hadn't seen in 11 years or so.

They had no Will, so what they left will go into probate, they had a
Mobil home and a couple of car's.

[NI4341] Eber Cockley article on page 4 of the February 1970 Laurel Messenger with
title " John Bowman Family Left Co. 1865" has that John married second on
June 5, 1854 to Susanna Yoder and third time to Barbara Troyer.

While Wilbert G. Beeghly's unpublished work has that he m. first to
Elizabeth Shoemaker, second to Susanna Yoder, and third to Barbara Eyer.

Now, let me mention that the TROYER surname is covered in the Amish and
Amish Mennonite Genealogies book. That is that gray book we seen at Goshen
College Library. Also, most likely, there at Goshen there are separate books
that cover the EYER and TROYER surnames.

[NI5559] Johannes saw the clothes worn by the last martyr, Haszlibacher, and he drank water from the Bern town well which is said to have turned to blood during and after the execution of the man from Haszlibach. See song # 140, Ausbund Song Book.
Johannes and Anna resided 1 1/2 miles from Santiglit, Department Dauchs, France. This was about 6 hours from the city of Montbelir & 9 hours from Bllford.
On December 2, 1852, John and Joseph, sons of Johannes, left their home in France for Paris. On December 6, they sailed from Havre and arrived in New York on Februrary 2, 1853, after a 58 day voyage on the Atlantic Ocean. After leaving New York, Joseph became ill and was confine to a Buffalo, NY hospital for several weeks. After his recovery, they continued on theeir journey to Starke County, OH. In the latter part of April, 1853, 52 persons with 11 teams and wagons started west for Allen County, IN
in May 1853, Johannes and the rest of the Schwartz family also left Grance and sailed for America. In the autumn of that year they arrived in Adams County, IN, and settled in virtual wilderness. They had borrowed money to finance the trip to America and after long years of hard work and thriftiness were aable to repay the loan.

He got cancer in January 1921, which was the cause of his death.

[NI5665] William died when he was younger of drowning--never got married or had kids

[NI5817] Amanda Hill b. July 15, 1881 according to the family tree poster she and her family kept. An entry in a workbook my grandfather kept lists her birth year as 1885. Her funeral memorial program put her birth date as July 15, 1882. I do not know which entry is correct, or if any are correct. No birth record can be found for Amanda. Amanda died on January 23, 1941.
.
Amanda married Birten Nisley on October 28, 1901. I do not know where the marriage took place. As Amanda was born in Napoleon, the marriage probably took place there.
from Maureen Merry

[NI5818] Birten Nisley was born in Defiance, Ohio on September 17, 1871 according to the family poster, and on the same date in 1875 in the workbook he kept. Again, no birth record has been found for Birt, so I don�t know which, if either, is correct. My grandfather began to spell his name, as written above, about the same time he married Amanda. Earlier entries in his workbook indicate that he spelled his name as Birten Nicely prior to his marriage. His brother, Jacob, kept the �Nicely� spelling. It may have originally been spelled �Knicely,� �Knisley,� or another of the many variations of the name. My mother believes Jacob may have spelled it with a �K� at one time. Birt died March 7, 1926. He was killed in an apparent hit and run accident. The family was living in Toledo at the time of his death.
from Maureen Merry

[NI5899] Hi Yvonne; I looked at the documents where Noah Heistand is selling land to John E. Bates and found that on the signatures it was Noah Heistand, but Martha's was Hiestand. I found that to be the same on almost all the documents! So I looked for a marriage for a Noah Heistand, or Hiestand, and Martha Bates. I found a marriage for Noah Hiestand and Martha Elizabeth Bates on Oct. 14, 1875 in Cortland, Trumbull, Ohio. It would fit with the date on the land documents! What do you think? I looked to see where Cortland, Trumbull, Ohio is and it is not anywhere near Henry County! I had not even thought to look at this Martha E. as John E. Bates mother. I do think this could be the case.

[NI6056] Bill's father died on July 1, 1951 or 1952, and Emma never re-married. (We don�t have a copy of the death certificate, so we�re not sure of the year.) from daughter in law Maureen Merry

[NF2079] Conflicting year from same source for marriage. 1710/1711

[NF2158] After their marriage, Birt and Amanda moved to Ottawa, Ohio. They had six girls.
1. Jennie Nisley b. April 27, 1902. Jennie married Henry Ranch, a
Canadian, on May 3, 1927. They had no natural issue, but
adopted a son, Patrick. Jennie and Henry moved to Akron, Ohio,
then moved to Sexsmith, Alberta, Canada. There they ran the (I'm
not making this up) Sexsmith Hotel. I don't know if they also
actually owned the hotel. I understand that Henry had family in
the area. Jennie died in Canada, but I don't have the year yet.
Henry survived her until 1980. I believe he was living in British Columbia when he died.
There is some speculation that Birt and Amanda had a son, who was either stillborn or died shortly after birth. There is a cryptic note on the back of the old map that Birt used to record his children. This note appears to read �lost one� and then gives the date November 3, 1911. This entry then has the name �Louise Nisley.� Now, Toots (Louise) did not die, and her birthday is November 3, 1911. My mother remembers one of her older sisters (but it was not Cleo or Helen) telling her that they had had a brother. We have always wondered if there was a boy that no one talked about. My own feeling is that Toots was one of a set of twins, and that the other, a boy, did not survive. Toots was easily the smallest of the daughters, and twins often were smaller than average before the days of pre-natal care and vitamins. The next girl born, Cleo, was given what was then a boy�s name. I have found a lot of Nisley, Nicely, Knisley, Kniesley, etc. lines, and Cleo seems to be common name for a male in these families. My mother remembers that at some time they got gifts for Christmas, she doesn�t remember from whom, and Cleo got an erector set because the sender assumed she was a boy. It would not be unusual for parents not to ever speak of a dead child, especially if it were an only son. My uncle, who does genealogy as a hobby and is part of the Bay County Genealogical Society, discovered he had an older brother who had died. When Don was doing cemetery research so a list of grave locations could be assembled and put in a database, he found the grave of his brother. Don always thought he was an only child. No one ever told Don he had a brother who died before Don was born.
