Cholera Pandemic in Erckartswiller.

A pandemic of cholera went through France around 1832-33-34-35-? The records seem to indicate a number of people dying during that time, especially young people. Jean Pierre's half-brother, Georges, lost 4 children plus his second wife during this time. In all, his 6 children and 2 wives died around this time. Georges later visited Jean Pierre in Allen County. Georges stayed with my Great-grandmother Catharina Schlemmer Jackemeyer in the home on Seiler Road that she and her husband, Conrad Jackemeyer, built. pilaukikuchi originally shared this

In 1841, the first election was held in Monroe Twp. They were voting on the Justice of the Peace. Only thirteen men voted. Peter?s vote was challenged, for he was a native of Germany. The vote was a tie. After much dispute, Peter went home and returned with the legal proof of his right to vote. His vote broke the tie. Noah Clem was the first Justice of the Peace for Monroe Twp.



Written by Dolly Kikuchi-Jackemeyer-Schlemmer. Jean PIERRE Schlemmer was born on 14 Jan 1795, as his age is given in his children's birth records. He was born in the village Erckartswiller in the mountains of what is now southeast France. When Pierre was born the area was under German control, thus the mixture of French and German records. In 1836 the population of Erckartswiller was 327; in 2005 it was 212. In 2009 I visited the village with my daughter Kristina. Pierre's name must have been Johannes Peter Schlemmer in German, as it is Jean Pierre Schlemmer in French. Pierre signed his name as Johannas Schlemmer in the church records from Erckartsweiler. Peter Schlemmer and his family came to America from Germany in 1835. The Schlemmer family first settled in Stark Co., Ohio, where they stayed until 1839 when they moved to Section 21, Monroe Twp., Allen Co., IN. The property is at the corner of Lortie and Hoagland Roads. In 1841, the first election was held in Monroe Twp. They were voting on a Justice of the Peace. Only thirteen men voted. Peter's vote was challenged, for he was a native of Germany. The vote was a tie. After much dispute, Peter went home and returned with the legal proof of his right to vote. His vote broke the tie. Noah Clem was the first Justice of the Peace for Monroe Twp. In the1850 census, age 60, Pierre was living with John 18 (born in Erckartswiller), Katharina 16 (born in Ohio) and Christopher, 4 (born in IN). Note: Christopher is Peter's grandson, son of Peter's daughter Sophia Schlemmer. Peter and his wife Katharina Barbara, nee Saling, are buried on their farm, now known as the Schlemmer Cemetery. It is on the corner of Hoagland and Lortie Roads, just outside of Monroeville, IN. It is south of Monroeville and very close to Ohio. It stands next to the one room, brick Monroe Township schoolhouse, District No. 7. Its cornerstone reads 1882. Lying between the school and the house is the Schlemmer family cemetery.

Re: SCHLEMMERS in France/Germany

A researcher checked both volumes of The Alsace Emigration books and sent me following information: "In Vol. 1 I found: Schlemmer, Pierre, father of 8, born Erckartswiller, emigrated 1/1/1828 and Schlemmer, Marguerithe, born Eckartswiller, emigrated 1/1/1828. Note that the date 1/1/1828 means that the exact date wasn't known.The children are not listed.

Note from Dolly: Marguerithe was Mary Margaret Schlemmer, Pierre's younger sister. She was born in 1807 in Erkartswiller and died between 1870-1880 in Madison, St. Joseph, IN. She married Cretien Helmlinger. Cretien was baptismal sponsor for Pierre's daughter Sophie (born 1830 in Alsace-Lorraine, died in 1897 in Cape Girardo, Missouri). Her married name was Frederich.


He was born in 1795, as his age is given in his children's birth records. In1836 the population of Erckartswiller was 327. In 2005 it is 212.

Obituary from The Weekly Breeze, Monroeville, Allen County, IN, Thursday, August 25, 1898: The Oldest Settler of Monroe Township Passes Away. Philip Schlemmer died Saturday morning last, August 20th, 1898, at his residence two miles south- ,onths of affliction, in the presence of his companion and several of his children. His passing was not unexpected owing to his ailment and advanced age, therefore those who have been near and dear to him who were not present, were not i n the least surprised when his death was announced.
Mr Schlemmer was considered to be the oldest settler in Monroe township. He was born in Germany in September 1820 and came to this country with his parents when but a child having first settled in Carroll County, Ohio, where they remained unti l he arrived at the age of fifteen years. In 1835 his parents sought to seek fortunes in the west and came to Indiana and settled upon the tract of land now owned and upon the same spot where now stands the residence of Ex-trustee Christian Hoff man. Here he toiled with his parents until manhood when he took unto himself a companion andd settled down upon the tract of land where he departed this life. He was twice married, his first wife having died in 1854 and his second survives him , together with four sons and four daughters namely: George Schlemmer, of New Bremen, Ind., Philip H., Henry and Charles Schlemmer and Mrs. Christena Ehling, of Monroe township, Mrs. Catherine Siegel, of Madison township, Mrs. Lizzie M. Erhardt , of Jackson township and Marthe Garthan. It is not necessary for us to state that at the time of settling in this section with his parents thaere was no farm, fine dwellings and settlement of people such as at the present time, but on the contr ary dense forests, wild beasts and log cabins were such as the settlers of those days were compelled to contend with. But not withstanding all this, the Schlemmer family of which the deceased was one, battled on contending with their chosen lot . Miles between neighbors and miles to travel through forests and not gravel roads as today, to get to mill or a trading point. In this lonely manner they moved on until finally the country began to become more densely settled, the forests disap peared and cultivated farms instead. Prosperity and happiness beamed before them, but one by one, like the forests there become a broken link in the family and this continues from time to time until the last link of the first chain had passed ov er the river to that world from which none ever return.
During life, especially in his days, Philip Schlemmer was ever found in readiness to assist his neighbor no matter in what manner he was called upon. Especially was this the case in time of sickness or distress. He with the assistance of Henri, who s till lives, hewed from a walnut log the first coffin, dug the first grave and laid to rest the first person that died in this section of country.
Thus in conclusing the BREEZE can only say that the one who has just ended his labors of 78 years has left behind him a record that will be recalled many times by the present, and following generations. The funeral was held Sunday morning lae house and later services were conducted by his pastor and spiritual advisor, at the German Lutheran church near the home of the deceased. The remains were interred in the grave yard near the church and upon a spot of ground which he and hi s father cleared and laid out as a family burial ground many years ago.
