JanetChristophel — 2006-10-25 21:01:08Z

Anna Marie Johaningmeyer & Christian Frederick Wilhelm Knost (William) were my grandparents. They had 5 children together; Caroline, Frederick, William Jr., Wilhelmina & Louis (my father). There was also a half-sister called Rose but we haven't been able to find out if she was William's or Anna's.
Anna's surname is spelled here according to the records at Spring Grove Cemetery here in Cincinnati. If anyone can tell me who William Knost's parents were I'd really appreciate it.

Norma, I am the possible decendant of Caroline Wilke and Rose's sister, Anna. There must have been another sister not listed on the 1870 Indiana Census that you referred to. Louise Johanningmeyer Nordman are buried in the same section of Spring Grove Cemetery in Cincinnati. The Wilke's are possibly buried there also. I know it's been quite some time. I hope you are still working on this line. Why not E-mail me directly and I we can share details! Sue

Re: Johaningmeyer/Johaningmeier

otowngirl — 2005-03-23 23:16:55Z

Norma, my mistake Caroline was my great-great grandmother. Anna (Caroline the w2nd's sister) was my great grandmother. I was a generation off. Anna had several children: Rosine, Caroline, Willliam, Heinrick(Louis), and Fred. Are you from the Cincinnati area?

Re: Johaningmeyer/Johaningmeier

otowngirl — 2005-03-23 23:09:30Z

Norma, Caroline & Frederick were my greatgrandparents, Frederick Jr, (from Cincinnati) my grandfather. I thought I had come to a dead end. For some reason I thought Rose may have been Caroline's daughter from a previous marriage. I will look in my notes. Frederick also went by the name William. I recently found some articles from a German-Cincinnati newpaper regarding this family but I will need to have it translated. I also have a wonderful picture that was sent to me by Albert's daughter (another sibling). They all had great hair! I will send you some info & a picute If you would like to E-mail me direct it's msrp1@sbcglobal.net. thanks, Sue

NormaWest57 — 2005-03-23 18:24:15Z

Finally a connection! I am a descendant of Rosina Johaningmeyer, daughter of Frederick and Caroline (Wilke). I found them in the 1870 Indiana Census. They had all daughters: Anna, Caroline, Rosina and Sophia. Rosina married Frederick Patemann around 1885 and they had 4 children one of which was my grandfather. I have a photo of Rosina and Frederick. She was quite a substantial looking woman.

Jo~'s from SW IL or STL: Have photo

2004-07-28 22:48:09Z

I have a 4 generations portrait featuring Augusta (Hoth) Johanningmeyer (I don't know the correct spelling) who is the grandmother with her handsome young adult son and his son as well as her father, August Hoth. Guessing this was in St. Louis or either Monroe, Randolph, St. Clair or Perry County in Illinois. Beautiful photograph. I'll try to do some census research to find male names.

otowngirl — 2004-04-21 22:49:17Z

I am looking for information on my great grandmother Anna Marie Johaningmeyer (sp?). I have reason to believe her mother was named Caroline Wilke. Anna married Christian Wilhelm (William) Knost around 1883 in Indiana and moved to Ohio. She is buried in Spring Grove Cemetery. Any Connections?

Johaningmeier/Johaningmeyer

otowngirl — 2004-04-21 22:49:17Z

Debbie, I am looking for my great grandmother Anna Marie Johaningmeyer (maybe Johaningmeier). She married Christian Wilhelm (William) Knost approx 1883 in Indiana or Ohio - do you have information on Johaningmeiers in this area?

Johaningmeyer/Johaningmeier

otowngirl — 2004-04-21 22:49:17Z

I am looking for my great grandmother Anna Marie Johaningmeyer (or Johaningmeier). I think her mother was Caroline Wilke. She married Chrisitian Wilhelm (William) Knost around 1883 probably in Indiana then moved to Cincinnati area. Any connections?

Re: Johaningmeyer / Johaningmeier

2002-02-06 21:24:49Z

Hi Sue,

I don't see anything in my family history that seems to fit. There is no reference to Anna Marie or a Knost or Wilke. Although Johanningsmeiers did settle in Southern Indiana.

There is one interesting similarity, but it isn't the same person.
There is an Anna Maria Sharlotte Johanning born in Germany in 1793. She may have used the name Johanningmeyer. She is the sister of Hans Herman Johanningsmeier whose children brought the name Johanningsmeier to America. I have no other information on her. She was born in Faulensiek, Germany and there is a web site that might have more information.

Good Luck,

Re: Johaningmeyer / Johaningmeier

2002-02-05 11:46:09Z

I am not sure if there is a connection or not. My sister-in-law is the one doing the most of the family search so I will check with her and let you know what I find out.

Johanningsmeier Family

MaryGardner360 — 2001-07-21 19:18:07Z

Hi,

I wondered if you could tell me anything about Herman Johanningsmeier b. about 1818 in Germany and passed away in Muscatine, IA, in 1881. He was married to a Wilhelmina (last name not known) b. 1828 in Germany, passed away in Muscatine, IA. As I understand it, Herman was a Doctor. They sponsored by GGG grandfather and his gamily to come to the United States. They arrived in Muscatine, IA in 1881; however, Herman passed away about three months before they arrived. Any help you could give me would be appreciated.

Re: information on the family

2001-03-10 19:43:55Z

Hi Trisha,

I'm so glad you wrote. There is not much information on the Johanningsmeiers online yet. However, there is a book published recently
by Barbara (Johanningsmeier) Brake which has data on the family going back to Germany. I found Ronald and Mary with 6 children. There
is no information on Bradley. I'd love to get that information from you so we can keep the data current. Here is what we have:

Raymond Louis Simon Johanningsmeier, son of Sophia (Pieper) and Henry Johanningsmeier, was born 15 Mar 1924 in Freelandville, IN.
Raymond was married 15 Sept 1947 to Mary Katherine Trusty, daughter of Opal (bryant) and Willie Trusty. Mary was born 15 Jan 1930.
They reside in Martinsville, IN. Their children are
Joan Deloris born 19 Nov. 1947
Ricky Ray born 15 Jan 1949
Diana Lou born 30 Dec. 1953
Lana Jean born 14 Oct 1958
James Dean born 20 Nov 1959
Danny Lee born 8 Jan 1961

There is information on the marriages of Joan, Ricky, Diana, and Lana.

Does this look like the right family? If so, some of Bradley's family may know
mine because they grew up in southern IN, in Knox and Sullivan counties. I've been
to Freelandville several times.

I highly recommend the book (my aunt wrote it). You can find out more about it at
http://www.johanningsmeier.com.

Please write to me at clhpoole@yahoo.com and I can tell you more
and I hope you will tell me more. We also have started a web site
at MyFamily.com. I can send you instructions for accessing that site
once I have an e-mail address for you.

Thanks for writing,
Cheryl Huntington (daughter of Jean Ann Johanningsmeier)

information on the family

2001-03-08 20:24:58Z

My husband is Bradley Todd Johanningsmeier, son of Raymond and Mary Johanningsmeier born in Martinville, In. We have not been able to find anything online in the way of a family tree. When we did pull up his dad, it only had one child out of 7 listed. if you have any information I would really appreciate you sharing it with us.

Thank-you so much. Trisha Johanningsmeier

Scott...Iam 83 years old, the oldest living member of the Simon F. Johanningsmeier family. My wife, Leona, and I live in Dothan, Al. We celebrated our 60th wedding anniversary last year. Will be happy to furnish you any information about the family that I know.

Spelling with out the s

2000-12-18 14:06:34Z

Thank you! Maybe some place way back when
someone forgot to put the s in.

Spelling of Johanningsmeier name

2000-12-16 19:04:49Z

Hi Debbie!

The Johanningmeier family (spelled without the "s") is not the same family as Johanningsmeier (spelled with the "s").

Everyone who spells the name Johanningsmeier with the "s" is a descendant of Hans Herman Johanningsmeier (1792-1872). We have documented many of his descendants.

It is possible (maybe even probable) that the two families were related to each other before the time of Hans Herman. If there is a relationship, we do not know where the connection is.

Barbara Brake

Is this the same family

2000-12-10 07:25:14Z

My Grandfather was Clare C Bierbaum and I know that our family extends to the Johanningmeier family. Is this your family?
My Grandpas Mother and Father names are Vern L Bierbaum and Alice M(shaffer) Bierbaum.

who is ...

2000-12-05 09:34:59Z

Scott,

Who is your wife's grandmother and lineage
to your wife? I'd like to see if they are
all recorded in our book. Our family tree
online is still sparse (only my lineage),
but you can create your own and we can
combine them later, or if I find our
connection I can fill it in.

Johanningsmeier Web Site

Hi Scott,
I'm so glad you saw my message. I have just
finished a first push for a web site. You
can see it at http://johanningsmeier.home.mindspring.com
for now. I'm working on getting it at www.johanningsmeier.com
soon. Check it out!

Website?

2000-11-27 14:14:54Z

Cheryl, I finally saw your meesage on the message board today. I've switched email addresses since I posted it so I didn't get a message to tell me that anyone responded. Anyway, I would love to get some information from you on the Johanningsmeier's! My wife's grandmother is a Johanningsmeir and they were at the reunion this past summer. If you prefer to email me, my address is Scott_KatyTalbot@msn.com. Hope to hear from you soon. By the way, we are all out in Colorado.

Johanningsmeier Web Site

2000-10-08 23:25:02Z

I have been looking at some public web sites
for family history and genealogy. There are
some that I am especially impressed with:

http://www.myfamily.com
http://www.familyhistory.com
http://www.ancestory.com

There is also http://www.rootsweb.com, but I
have not looked at it yet.

These sites have all of the features that we
talked about for a web page at the reunion.
This includes private space that is
accessible only to members, discussion
groups, places to archive pictures and
history, an online family tree, and a way
to set up online chats. The disadvantage to
these sites is the advertising. It gets
annoying and would be more so if you have a
slow connection to the internet.

My idea is to create a web page and
integrate some of the features of those
web sites so that we can do more things
online more quickly. I will talk more about
this as I work on the project.

Take a look at those sites and tell me what
you think.

Cheryl

Hello Scott,

Someone has seen your message finally. I am
the daughter of a Johanningsmeier. How do
you tie into the Johanningsmeier family? I can give
you more information on the family and ancestory
if you are interested. My mother's family has
done a lot of research on this and has recently
published a book. We also had a family reunion
earlier this year. There will be another one in
P>4 years.

I am starting work to get
us on-line. I've been looking at myFamily.com,
ancestory.com and familyhistory.com to find
out what options there are. It looks very
exciting.

Where are you located? Most of the family
is in the Indiana/Illinois area, at least
that is where they settled and there are still
quite a few around there.

Please get in touch with me and let's exchange
information.

Cheers,
Cheryl
