Wm. Christ b. 1884, Ohio>Columbus>Normal, Illinois>Chicago Railroader

wwolff — 5 Aug 2008 3:37:33 GMT

I am seeking information on William Christ, b. 8 July 1884 to Charles Christ and Frances Philamena “Minnie” Schmelzer in Ohio. By 1879 (maybe earlier) the family was in Columbus, Ohio. Older siblings include Charles Christ Jr., Paul, Catherine or “Kate.” Younger siblings include Joseph, Frank and John Anthony. This is a railroad family.

In the 1920 census, William is living at Normal, McLean, Illinois employed as a pipe fitter. He is married to Anna, 38 born in Illinois and they have five children, William H., 18; George, 17, Harold 15; Ralph 11 and Jeanette 8. The two oldest boys are also employed at the railroad shop.

I have a 1926 letter that suggests that William is in Danville, Illinois, and a 1948 obituary for his brother Paul R. Christ at Bloomington, Illinois that places him at Chicago. I believe he died in Chicago May 1971 though I do not yet have a copy of the death certificate. Does this sound like your family?

Charles Christ/Chriest > Ohio to Illinois, and Alberta, Canada

wwolff — 31 Jul 2008 1:17:23 GMT

I am seeking information on descendants of Charles C. Chriest (spelling was changed from Christ to Chriest in Canada) who was born June 30, 1878 at Shawnee, Ohio (west of Corning). His parents were Charles Christ, the immigrant from Alsace, b. 1850 and his wife, “Minnie” Schmelzer.
Charles C. Christ, the oldest son, married Anna Mary Wedding at Lawrenceville, Illinois in September 1897. They immigrated to Canada in 1906 and became naturalized citizens of Canada in 1909 according to the 1911 census for Alberta, Canada.
In a letter dated 1926 Charles C. Chriest, then living at Coronation, Canada said he and his wife had four children, two living. Children were Charles Roy (Ray?) b. 31 Jan. 1897; Joseph Sylvester b. 30 Sept. 1902; James Alvin b. 24 Nov. 1904 and Russel Rostin b. 26 March 1910.
The two children living in 1926 included Joseph Sylvester Chriest married to Helen Girkey with no children, and James Alvin Chriest married to Ester Pearson with three children, one girl and two boys (names not known).
In 1928 Charles C. Chriest was operating the Calvary Hotel at Calvary, Alberta, Canada.
I have information on Charles C. Chriest’s siblings: Paul R. b. 1879; Catheerine b. Dec. 1881; William b. July 1884; Joseph b. July 1886; Frank b. Dec. 1889 and John Anthony b. June 1893.

Thank you.

Christ from Alsace to Ohio, Indiana, Illinois W.Va. and Canada

lwolff|MA274266 — 16 Jul 2008 2:49:25 GMT

1. CHARLES1 CHRIST was born about 1850 in Alsace, France, and died after 1900. He married PHILUMENA FRANCES SCHMELZER Bet. 1874 - 1876, daughter of ANSELM SCHMELZER and MARGARETHE KELLER. She was born October 15, 1856 in Logan, Hocking, Ohio, and died October 01, 1904 in Washington, Daviess, Indiana.

Notes for CHARLES CHRIST:
According to family tradition Charles was born in Alsace/Elsass and came to the United States to avoid conscription. His birth date and birth place are not known. In the 1880 census for Corning, Perry, Ohio, he claimed that he was 30 which would indicate that he was born in 1849 or 1850. In that census he also claimed that he was born in Germany. Germany took the provinces of Alsace and Lorraine in the Franco-Prussian War in 1871-1872 so he may have answered the question on the basis of who was currently in power in 1880 and had been for nine years.

There is a ship record for the "City of Antwerp” that arrived at the Port of New York City from Liverpool on July 31, 1871 only 12 days after France declared war on Prussia. It would seem that this ship would have left Liverpool before the actual declaration of War but perhaps war was widely anticipated. If Charles was 21 or 22 in 1871 he would have been a prime candidate for conscription.

Charles Christ’s movements and whereabouts 1871 to 1900 are sketchy but that might be expected of someone employed as a blacksmith for a railroad that was being built. Apparently he was in Shawnee, Perry, Ohio (or at least Minnie was) for the birth of his first child, Charles. In 1880 when the federal census was taken he was in Corning, Perry, Ohio with two young sons, Charles and Pawley (Paul).

From the "History of Perry County, Ohio" by Clement L. Martzolff, published by Ward & Weiland, New Lexington, Ohio, Columbus, Ohio Press of Fred J. Heer, 1902, pages 92 and 93 we learn that Perry County was an active mining area. Shawnee began its existence in 1872, and that Corning was laid out in 1878. Both mines and railroads would need blacksmiths for their operation.

Charles was naturalized Oct. 11, 1879 in Fairfield County and his sponsor was Ambroise Larger who was born at Fellering, Alsace, France and who had Christ kin at Bitschviller-les-Than, another village less than 7 miles away from Fellering in the Thur Valley in Alsace, France. I do not know if or how Charles might be related to these Christs but I would not be surprised if one of these is his native village.

Children of CHARLES CHRIST and PHILUMENA SCHMELZER are:
i. CHARLES2 CHRIST, b. June 30, 1877, Shawnee, Perry, Ohio; d. after 1928; m. ANNA MARIE WEDDING, Lawrenceville, Illinois; d. after 1928. Living in Coronation, Alberta, Canada in 1926 and owner of the Calgary Hotel in Calgary, Alberta, Canada in 1928.

ii. PAUL R. CHRIST, b. August 1879; d. May 09, 1948, Bloomington, Illinois; m. ANNIE MILDRED MCCORMICK, 1915; b. 1877; d. July 08, 1931, Bloomington, Illinois. He worked for Chicago and Alton Railroad.

iii. CATHERINE CRIST, b. December 05, 1881, Ohio; d. May 03, 1955; m. JOHN W. SCHOLL, October 10, 1904, Washington, Daviess Co., Indiana; b. April 01, 1885; d. August 17, 1935. John W. Scholl owned a grocery store.

iv. WILLLIAM CHRIST, b. July 1884. In 1926 he was reportedly in Danville, Illinois. In the 1948 obit for Paul R. Crist at Bloomington, Illinois, his brother William is listed as a survivor living at Chicago.

v. JOSEPH CHRIST, b. July 1886. In the 1948 obit for Paul R. Crist at Bloomington, Illinois, his brother William is listed as a survivor living at Chicago and he is listed Joseph of West Virginia (perhaps at Huntington?)

vi. FRANCIS SYLVESTER CRIST, b. October 1889; d. after. 1930; m. BESSIE MALLEY, about 1908; b. about 1892, Indiana; d. after 1930. In the 1930 census for Huntington, Gideon District, (Ward 7) Cabell, West Virginia he is listed as head of the Head of household, home valued at $5,000, with radio set, age 40 at his last birthday, and age 19 when he first married. He was born in Ohio, his father in Germany, and mother in Ohio. His employment is as a machinist for a railroad shop. In same household is his wife Bessie, 37, both parents born in Indiana.

vii. JOHN ANTHONY CRIST, b. June 15, 1893, Columbus, Franklin, Ohio; d. October 04, 1941, Cumberland, Allegany, Maryland; m. MARY JOSEPHINE KRONENBERG, November 25, 1914, Washington, Daviess, Indiana; b. February 27, 1892, Washington, Daviess, Indiana; d. September 16, 1961, Washington, Daviess, Indiana.

Notes for JOHN ANTHONY CRIST: According to family tradition, John Anthony Crist, the youngest child of Charles Crist and Philumena "Minnie" Frances Schmelzer Crist, was 11 years old when his mother died. He went to work for railroad which he hated so thoroughly that he saved his money to secure more education. By 1922 he was attending the Palmer School of Chiropractic at Davenport, Iowa and by 1926 he had started his Chiropractic practice in Cumberland, Aleghany, Maryland. He was killed in a gas explosion that leveled several buildings in October 1941. John Anthony Crist is buried at Cumberland, Allegany, Maryland. His wife, Mary Josephine (Kronenberg) Crist was buried at St. John Cemetery, Washington, Daviess, Indiana.

viii. MARY CHRIST. – Probably a child that died at birth or very young, mentioned only in letter from Charles Christ Jr. to DW Christ. Birth date and death date not known.

JOHN CHRIST (abt 1857) m. BERTHA I. (b. abt 1869) Shawanno Wisconsin

MaryWilson585 — 26 Apr 2008 4:52:14 GMT

JOHN CHRIST, b. abt 1857 in Wisconsin, married a BERTHA I. (?) (b. abt 1869). They had:
ARTHUR J. CHRIST, abt 1888
VERONICA B. CHRIST, abt 1891
ALFRED A. CHRIST, abt 1894
CLARENCE F. CHRIST, abt 1897 and
HATTIE M., abt 1904.

We are descended from CLARENCE CHRIST, who married MARJORIE SWEETSER (b. abt 1898) in Wisconsin. They lived in the Shawanno, WI vicinity. (MARJORIE's parents were LYMAN E. SWEETSER (abt 1862) and ADDIE M. EATON of Massachusetts.)

CLARENCE CHRIST started using the last name WILSON in the early 1920s for himself and his family to avoid discrimination against Germans so prevalent at that time. Later, though, we understand he left his family for greener pastures and headed down to the Carolinas where he died in an accident of some type possibly around late 1930s and probably under the name WILSON.

We are anxious to learn anything on CLARENCE and our CHRIST relatives who descend from CLARENCE's siblings. - Mark

joe_sandy — 30 Jan 2002 5:28:16 GMT

I have traced my gg grandparents John Peter and Marie Christ to Fond du Lac, Wisconsin. They bought property there in May of 1857. I believe they traveled from New York as they had a little boy who died there. No specific area. Then it's been said that they traveled down a canal to WI.
They have about 12 children and the names listed above are husbands last names of the daughters. My g grandmother was Bertha Marie Kaska and she had two daughters Mildred Leona (my paternal grandmother) and Beatrice. Mildred was born in 1898 in FDL.
Anyone know about this family? Quite a few are buried at Estabrook Cemetery.
If anyone is close to this city I have some lookups at the court house that I desperatly need to put some pieces together.
Thanx

obit for Hattie Lucinda Christ Jagger Allison, died 1931, Kansas

cwhite02 — 3 Aug 2007 7:00:12 GMT

Better Way, Ottawa County, Kansas, Oct. 15, 1931, page 1, col. 1:
Murder, and Suicide Shocks the County
George Allison Shoots Wife and Then Kills Himself
Used High Power Rifle
Shooting Took Place Sometime Tuesday Morning, but Bodies Were Not Discovered Until Children Home from School --- Suffered Ill Health?
Mrs. George Allison was shot and killed by her husband at their home north east of Minneapolis some time Tuesday morning. Allison then shot himself through the heart.
The shooting, as officers reconstructed the scene, started in the yard of their home. Allison, using a 25-20 rifle first shot his wife through the shoulder, the bullet ranging down into her body. She evidently started to run into the house, for she was shot again in the back, the bullet reaching her heart.
It is thought that Allison then took her inside. He then laid down on the floor, and shot himself through the heart, the bullet going through his body, and on thru the floor.
No one witnessed the shooting, but neighbors living nearby recalled hearing a shot or two, then a scream about 10:30 that morning. The bodies were not discovered until the return home from school of Mrs. Allison's son. A two-year old grandson of Mrs. Allison was present, but was found locked in the kitchen.
The couple had been married about a year.
No known motive has been found for the act. Neighbors stated, however, Mr. Allison seemed to be constantly worried about finances, and it is thought this worry temporarily deranged his mind.
The bodies were brought to the L.B. Smith Funeral Home. The funeral services will be held from the Methodist church here this afternoon with Rev. Jones in charge. Mrs. Allison leaves the following children through former marriages: Mrs. M. Garst, Ira Jagger, Ollie Jagger, Merl Jagger, Clio Jagger, Harold Jagger and Nathan Frakes. Mr.Allison
had seven brothers. The obituary will be published next week.

Better Way, Ottawa County, Kansas, Oct. 22, 1931, page 1:
Hattie Lucinda Christ Allison
Hattie Lucinda Christ was born near Lamar, Kansas, where she spent the early years of her life, January 3, 1882, and died October 13, 1931. On October 26, 1902, she was united in marriage to George Jagger, who preceded her in death December 11, 1918, leaving her to care for a family of small children.
All the struggles necessary in rearing the family she met with courage and energy and succeeded in the undertaking. A notably fine mother to small children, she bore nine; seven of whom survive. The children are La Verne, who died in infancy; Mrs. Eva Garst; Thelma, who died in infancy; Ira, Ollie, Meryle, Cleo, Harold and Nathan, all of whom reside in the home community. She also had seven grandchildren.
On December 1, 1930, she was again united in marriage to George Allison.
Mrs. Allison was the daughter of Levi and Mary Christ. Her father was one of the old time Methodist preachers much beloved and respected in his home community and over the conference.
Of the near relatives surviving are two brothers and three sisters, Mrs. Sarah Guhl of Nakoma, kansas, Mrs. Mary Fyfe of Fredonia, Grant Christ of Lamar, Mrs. Sylvia Schlotz of Marion and Glen of Salina.
Funeral services were held at the Methodist Episcopal church in Minneapolis at 3:30 o'clock Thursday, Oct. 15, conducted by the Rev. C. Cray Jones, assisted by Rev. L.S. Cooper. Burial was made in Highland cemetery.

A. Perly Christ, born 1887 in Illinois

PamelaWinkelman — 2 Apr 2007 2:36:45 GMT

I am looking for more information on a person named, A Perly Christ. She was born around 1887 in Illinois. I've only been able to find her on the 1900 census record, aged 12 years. She is listed as a niece of Ella Ellwood, aged 39, born in Indiana. Also listed is Ella's son, Joseph Ellwood, aged 21. Ella was born October 1860, and Joseph was born in 1878 in Indiana. I do not know what the "A" stands for, nor do I know if she is the daughter of a brother or sister of Ella's.

If anyone can shed some light on this person, please let me know. I'm am trying to ascertain whether the name "Christ" is Ella's maiden name, or the married name of a sister.

Henry CHRIST, Marianne HEITZ, Mascoutah to Quincy?

nanlee9 — 11 Apr 2005 8:01:45 GMT

I am looking for any information on where these people went, or where they came from. Henry CHRIST married Mary Ann/Marianne HEITZ June 1, 1869. They are in Mascoutah in the 1870 and 1880 census and both say they were born in France. My ancestor is -- Leo HEITZ -- then 6 years old is living with them in 1870. He is no where to be found in 1880 (and I mean NO WHERE). I need to know immigration dates, if this was Marianne's second marriage and Leo is her son, and perhaps where Henry and Marianne died. They may have gone to Quincy, IL. Any help here would be appreciated.

patrak76 — 19 Jan 2005 11:26:43 GMT

Hi!
My Grandmother was Louise Christ (Married name-Romano). Her sisters were Evelyn and Katherine, her rothers were Edward (Dewy) and Louie (Louis). They were born and raised in New York. Her Stepfather was Nicholas Lauria, birth father was Heinrich (Henry) Christ. Heinrich left when the children were small, and their mother remarried N. Lauria. I do not know their mother's name, only that her maiden name was Oakley and she originally came from England (Pickadilly Lane in East London and something about a church with three bells). H. Christ's parents came from Germany (I think) in the mid 1800's, Christian and Anna Katherina (or Katherina Anna).
If there's anyone out there with any info or missing pieces, I'd really appreciate the help! Thanks!

Adam Christ---b. Germany, d. Washington State 1932

Buried in a group of pauper's graves where my greatuncle is also buried, is one Adam Christ. On his death certificate, his birth and age info is a bit unclear, but he was born in Germany, the son of John Christ, also born Germany. He died in Cheney, Washington from a fall down stairs resulting in a fractured skull.

I am not sure why he lies in an unmarked pauper grave, as he apparently was married (to one Margaret); some of the information was supplied by a daughter, Miss Lucille Christ of Seattle, and he was, apparently, still a working farmer as of the day of his death. It was, however, the height of the Depression.

In any case, it is my intention to eventually ercet simple markers on the graves of all these hardworking, but "forgotten" men who lie in the same ground as my greatuncle. This is not a plea for help, but an attempt to re-connect Adam Christ with his family.

If Adam is part of your family, and especially if you can fill in the missing birthdates, I would be pleased to hear from you.
