FAMILY HISTORY
Article by Johann J. Harr (in German with English translation--source unknown):
"My grandfather came from the town of Glatten, Kreis Schwartzwald, Wuerttemburg, and was assistant medical officer with the military in Stuttgart. In 1812 or 1815 he went to Russia, when the then reigning Kaiser Alexander called the first German settlers to Russia. My grandfather first established himself in Grossliebental, but soon moved to Odessa, which was then in its early stages of development, and established himself as a doctor. Soon, however, he accepted an advantageous offer from Count Musevasal and moved to the Count's estate as veterinarian for the Taurish government. In 1820 he moved back to Odessa and took a position as veterinarian with Count Kobelev. He died there in 1831.
My grandmother then moved to Grossliebental, where she received a life pension of one hundred rubles per year from Count Kobelev. Later she moved to Johannestal, where her daughter Katharina Maas lived. My father was confirmed in Johannestal and also was educated to be a veterinarian. In 1850 he took a position with General Nowitzkn in Ananjewer and in 1851 married my mother Katharina Schatz from Neufreudental. I was born there in 1853.
In 1856 my father joined General Kriworotow, north of Ananjew, and in 1859, General Leopold Brams, near Beresowka. I went to the German school in Neufreudental and in 1868 was confirmed by Pastor Schamburg in Johannestal. I was supposed to learn the profession of my father, but I couldn't tolerate animal surgery, and entered the chancellery as an apprentice scribe. I later served as scribe and teacher in small towns. In 1876 I married my wife, Anna Maria Kunz, who was from Rohrbach, and who is still living. At that time I was tutor in the home of Herr Heinrich Hoffman. In 1877-78 I was in Bitschental and later with Herr Philipp Roemmich as tutor. Besides this I pursued farming. There was a bad harvest and I lost almost everything. In 1882 I entered the employ of the British Bible Society in Odessa and worked five years as a travelling colporteur [note: bible salesman]--the first two years in Chersonschen and Bessrabbischen, the third and fourth years in Wolhnischen, and the last year in the Crimea. From there I went to America in 1887, and in July went to Yankton, SD. In 1888 I moved to Eureka and worked for Mr Simms of Roscoe in his firm. In 1889 I took preemption [of public land] three miles west of Eureka, built a small house and bought a pair of oxen. My wife worked on the farm and I in the firm of Sprenger and Weis. In the fall I______ the land, sold the oxen, mortgaged [transferred?] the land and built a house in the city. I worked in the machinery firm of Martin Schamber until 1894. I then took a homestead a half-mile south of Eureka and managed it mayself until 1912. I then moved to the city and let my oldest son have the land. I now make my home in Eureka and have six living children, two sons and four daughters.
In 79 years
Has so much happened to me,
And I've experienced so much,
But God has led me.
I praise his constancy,
And cry, Lord, stay by me!"

Excerpt from "Eureka 1887-1937" compiled by Eureka's Golden Jubilee Organization
JOHANN J. HARR
Among the most picturesque and colorful characters of Eureka pioneers was Johann Jacob Harr. During the latter period of his life he was known both in the community and outside as Judge Harr. Possessed of a good education from his native land it was only natural that he should assume certain leadership in many enterprises in the community. Although an ardent democrat, during his entire career in this country, he never sought major political office. Active in local political circles, his sole service in public office was as police judge, which office gave him the title, "Judge."
A brief story of his life, published in the Northwest Blade and written by its editor, sums up the train of events which will conceivably grow into legend. The story follows:
Johann Jacob Harr was born in Neufreudental, Russia, in the year 1858. In his youth he attended schools in Russia and upon reaching manhood, was employed as a teacher of Russian and German schools in Russia, later he was a traveling agent for a Bible publishing company in that country. He was united in marriage in October, 1876, to Anna Marie Kunz. They located for a year at Yankton, South Dakota, then came to this vicinity and resided here since that time. As a young man Mr. Harr was employed in various general stores in Eureka, including the store of Martin Schamber, Sr., where he worked for many years until the time that he homesteaded on a claim south of town, later selling this property and buying another farm one-half mile west. They retired from the farm in 1909. Mr. Harr also traveled for the Dakota Freie Presse for a number of years. Mr. and Mrs. Harr were the parents of eleven children, three of whom died in infancy. His wife preceded him in death for a few years. The surviving children are: John F. Harr, Stockton, California; Katherine Pietz, Eureka; Elizabeth Grosz, Tolstoy; Theo Harr, Miller, and Martha Temple, Marion, S. Dak. Two brothers also survive: Daniel Harr, Eureka; Gottlieb Harr, Siberia, Russia; two sisters: Mrs. Karolina Schmierer, Streeter, N. Dak.; Katharina Schweigert, Bismarck; eighteen grand children: Irma and Herbert Stickel; Max, Leo, Walter, Linda and Anna Harr; Ella Pietz Fergus; Verona, Hugo, Robert, Vera and Quentin Grosz; Elmer, Raymond, Ann May and Ella Harr and Bernice Harr.
Mr. Harr was an ardent church worker and was the last of the charter members of the Eureka Lutheran Church and was reader of the sermons for years before a regular minister was secured. He donated the plot of ground for the Lutheran cemetary and was an untiring worker in any worthy cause. Mr. Harr was one of the organizers of the Northwest German Farmers Mutual Insurance Company and served in the capacity of secretary of the organization for fourteen years. He was also justice of the peace for many years. He was an enthusiastic follower of the democratic party during his entire life in this country. Mr Harr was a devoted husband and father.
CAUSE OF DEATH
Hypertensive heart disease, congestive failure, asthma.

SECOND MARRIAGE
In March 1943 Frieda married widower Jacob M. Hauck in Missoula, MT. They were married by baptist minister Frederick Alf, with witnesses Juo Berit (sic) and Theo Hauck. (From address book of son John, her address in Missoula in 1943 was 1837 So. 5th St. W.) Frieda and Jacob were divorced on 21 Apr 1944.
CITY DIRECTORIES
In a search of the city directories for Great Falls, MT, Frieda Weisenburger first appears in 1949, living at 8 South 17th with her son, George. She lived there until 1968 (when she became ill and moved to Washington with her daughter, Marcie).
DEATH CERTIFICATE
Frieda died on 8 Dec 1968 at West Seattle General Hospital in Seattle, WA. Her residence was given as #8 - 17th St., Great Falls, Cascade, MT [she was living with her daughter Marcie in Seattle up to the time of her death]. She was autopsied the day after her death, with the cause of death given as terminal carcinomatosis and carcinoma of the stomach.
MEMORIES OF GRANDMA (by Karen Abel)
With our family in California and Grandma living in Great Falls, MT, we didn't often see her. Grandma did not write in English, but she sent frequent letters that a friend wrote for her. Grandma signed them with lots of Xs and Os and always taped a coin to the letter for each of us children. They were often dimes and quarters, but it was a real treat when we received silver dollars.
Grandma did travel a fair bit to visit various relatives, always travelling by bus. She was a very strict German Baptist and often let her views be known. Many things were considered a sin: watching television, playing cards, going to dances (even ones held at the Episcopal Church that we attended). While visiting us, however, she was known to be seen sneaking a peak around the doorway at the television. Having heard once too often that "Jesus didn't watch TV", my mother once replied to Grandma, "Mama, Jesus didn't ride the bus either!" Visits to our house always caused a flurry of activity and flour in the kitchen as Grandma baked her wonderful German kuchen.

He initially paid $13.95 as registry fee. His neighbors, Georg Ulrich and Karl Reuther, filed Testimony of Witness papers in May 1910. Jacob's own testimony at that time indicated that he had the following crops:

The final purchase of the land was made on 1 Jun 1910 at the cost of 25 cents per acre, for a total of $197.60, and Jacob then received a patent for the land.
OBITUARY
The McLaughlin community was stunned Sunday morning by the sudden passing of a 31-year resident and businessman, Jacob J.Schweigert. Mr. Schweigert had just finished the adult Sunday school class in his church when he suffered a fatal heart attack. He was 78. Funeral services will be held Thursday at the First Baptist Church at McLaughlin at 2 P.M. Services will be conducted by the Rev. Alfred Weisshar, superintendent of the Baptist Home for the Aged at Bismarck. Jacob J. Schweigert was born September 15, 1885 in Odessa,Russia. He was the son of Jacob and Katharina Schweigert. As a youth he accepted the Lord Jesus Christ as his personal Saviour and was baptized in the Baptist faith before leaving the Old Country. "Jake", as he was better known, came to the United States in 1905. He first resided at Eureka where he was employed in a general store and in a blacksmith shop. A few years later he went to Ashley, ND where he met and married Emma Mayor (sic) on March 3, 1908. In 1912 the young couple moved to Bismarck, ND to make their home. There their eight children were born. Mr. Schweigert became an American citizen in 1913. He worked as a foreman in a garage in Bismarck for 18 years. In 1930 the family moved to Plevna, Mont. where he operated a repair shop until 1933 when he moved with his family to McLaughlin. Here he worked as a mechanic until 1937 when he became associated with Ford and also with John Deere farm machinery. He disposed of this business in 1955. In April 1949, he signed a contract with Chevrolet and in 1955 he acquired the Oldsmobile franchise at McLaughlin. He was joined by his son Ted in 1942 and the two have operated the Schweigert Chevrolet Company as a partnership since that time. His first wife, Emma, passed away in 1948 and in 1949 he married Emilia Quenzer (nee Dietterle). He is survived by his wife, Emelia, two daughters, (Anna) Mrs. Andrew Bertsch, McLaughlin; (Verna) Mrs. Christ Aldinger, Billings, Mont., and three sons, Henry of Cedarville, Ill., Reuben of Fairfield, Calif. and Theodore W. of McLaughlin; two sisters, Freida Weisenburger of Great Falls, Mont., Mrs. John (Anna) Bentz of Lodi, Calif. There are three stepdaughters, twenty grand children and two great grandchildren. He was preceded in death by his parents, two brothers, two sisters, one infant son and two infant daughters. Mr. Schweigert was a devout Christian and always played an important part in church affairs. He was a charter member of the Bismarck Baptist Church. He served his Church and Lord in various capacities such as Sunday school superintendent, Sunday school teacher, secretary, treasurer and deacon. He loved to sing and for many years sang in a male quartet in the church. He also served as trustee for the Bismarck Baptist Home for the Aged and at the time of his passing was serving on the Board of Directors of this Home. He had recently been re-elected to serve as Deacon of the Baptist Church in McLaughlin. Through his demise his church and the McLaughlin community has lost a citizen, advisor and friend. He will be greatly missed by all who knew him. Jake always said, "You are only as old as you feel." At the time of his passing, he was 78 years, 8 months and 7 days young.

NEWSPAPER
The following article appeared on page 5 of the Monday 11 Mar 1913 issue of the Bismarck Daily Tribune:
"Chris Schweigert Insane"
"Chris Schweigert a carpenter living on Twelfth street became violently insane Sunday and it was with great difficulty that Sheriff Barnes and several assistants succeeded in getting him to jail. Schweigert has a brother Jacob in this city and both have been engaged on the construction of the Evangelical church on Seventh street. The unfortunate man's father who resides at Ashley came up Monday and will return home with him this afternoon."
DEATH CERTIFICATE
According to his death certificate, Christian was an unmarried carpenter when he died. His usual residence was in Hellwig, ND, but he had been hospitalized in the State Hospital for the Insane for eleven days prior to his death. He died of acute exhaustion of mania.
STATE HOSPITAL FOR THE INSANE
This hospital, located in Jamestown, Stutsman County, opened in 1885. It is now known as the North Dakota State Hospital. By the early 1900s its bed capacity was listed at 625. The hospital population in 1908 was 538; this had risen to 819 by 1912. At this time, the hospital was seriously overcrowded and the staff worked 60 hours a week at extremely low pay--meaning that the quality of the staff was very low.

LETTER TO HER BROTHER
Just a month before her death, Anne wrote a letter to her brother, John, sent from San Haven, ND, to John at the Wicks Hotel in Mott, ND. She wrote in November 1933:
"Saturday 4 p.m. - Dear Johnny: I seem to have a spark of energy so I'm going to fan it by writing to you. My, how proud I was to have your lovely letter & snapshot. The girls think you're quite a handsome brother. So do I! .. Johnny, I've a favor I'd like to ask of you. Remember the card I sent to you? Well I wonder if you could print 'A Merry Christmas and A Happy New Year' on seven of those for me. I got the nurses some hankies, and a card like that put in the envelope with the hanky would save some wrapping and since I can't get about, it would make it easy for me. The nurses always rave about that printing so I know they'd like it. Could you do it? Or is it too much? Could you get some cards like that or should I send you some. They are 15cents a box at the dime store. So you listen to the minstrels? Well so do I. That's one thing we do together. Too bad we can't listen to the same radio instead of the same program. Gee, I get so blue and downhearted sometimes but what's a body to do? Just grit your teeth and bear it I guess. Maybe someday I'll have a chance to live a natural life. I had an X-ray this week. Dr. J. said today that there isn't much improvement but it isn't any worse. I'll just have to do better or I'll lay here forever. I wish I could gain but it doesn't seem possible. I try everything and can't gain..
"Sunday a.m. - The supper trays came before I could finish so I'll finish now. After supper I read my Tribune & a cute letter I got from Buddy. According to him this will be quite a day at home, for, Uncle Adam's family and you are to be home. .. Do you listen to Baron Munchhausen? I think he's good. .. Auf wiedersehen. Love & Kisses. Your sis, Anne."
[Note: "Buddy" was younger brother George. "Uncle Adam" must have been Adam Gohring, husband of the deceased Eva Schweigert.]
According to "Webb Brothers Funeral Homes Records" Annie died at Dunseith Sanitarium. This was a tuberculosis sanitarium located near Dunseith, ND, a town very near the Canadian border. No death certificate was found for her in ND.

She spent a six months period at Denver, Colorado, in an effort to be cured of her disease, and also stayed a short time, before her death, at the Tuberculosis Sanitorium of San Haven, North Dakota. Although she was unable to take part in many activities of the high school, Anne made a studious effort to stay in school as much as possible in an endeavor to be graduated.

FAMILY HISTORY
John left Bismarck in 1938 to move to Lodi, CA. While there he picked grapes and then worked in a men's clothing store. He then moved to San Jose and worked first for Ernie Gregory (who remained a lifelong friend) in a shoe store in Palo Alto. John moved to Palo Alto for a time and then returned to San Jose. While working at Gallenkamps in San Jose, he met Carol.
John was drafted into the Army on 2 February 1943. He was in Field Artillery--he didn't do the firing but computed in his head the direction the guns should be fired. He and Carol lived in Winona, MS, until he was transferred to Atlanta, GA, in the fall of 1944. Their oldest son, Gary, was born there. While there he worked in the Finance Office figuring payrolls. He received his Honorable Discharge on 14 February 1946 at the rank of Technical Sergeant. His mustering out pay was $200 and he received travel pay of $135.55.
John, Carol and Gary returned to San Jose. They lived with Carol's parents for one year while their house at 1251 Malone Road was being built. They wore out a set of wheels on Gary's stroller in walking back and forth to watch as the house was built.
After the war, John worked for J.C. Penney Co., managing the men's furnishing department. He then worked for Herold's Shoe Store as a salesman and buyer of shoes for women and children. Then he moved on to manage and buy shoes for The Wardrobe men's store at 2nd & Santa Clara streets in San Jose. In the early 1970's he began working for San Jose Leather Goods as a salesman. He traveled from Antioch to Monterey. He retired in 1976 and he and Carol moved to Pioneer, CA, where they had a home built. For a while he sold advertising for the Amador Dispatch.
OBITUARY
Following is John's obituary from the San Jose Mercury News of 19 Apr 1991:
"A memorial service was held Thursday in Sutter Creek for John Weisenburger, a worker in shoe and leather goods sales in San Jose for 30 years, who died Tuesday at a hospital in Jackson, in Amador County, of complications from Parkinson's disease. He was 76.
Mr. Weisenburger was born in Bismarck, N.D., and attended schools there before serving as an Army finance officer in Mississippi during World War II. He moved to San Jose in 1946 and lived here until 1976, when he retired and moved to Pioneer.
Mr. Weisenburger loved fishing and 'wet his line in just about every trout stream and lake from Northern California to Montana,' said his son, Gary Weisenburger of Connecticut. Mr. Weisenburger moved to Pioneer in order to be near Silver Lake, one of his favorite fishing spots, his son said.
Mr. Weisenburger was a shoe buyer for Herold's Shoe Store for 10 years, manager of the shoe department for 12 years at the Wardrobe, formerly at Second and Santa Clara streets, and a salesman at San Jose Leather Goods for eight years.
'If you bought a pair of shoes in San Jose during the 1950s and 1960s, you might very well have bought them from my father, who often remembered not only people's names but their shoe size and the style they liked,' said Mr. Weisenburger's daughter, Karen Abel of San Jose.
Mr. Weisenburger was a former commander of American Legion Post No. 318 in the Willow Glen district and was a member of San Jose Golden Rule Masonic Lodge.
His is survived by his wife of 50 years, Carol Weisenburger of Pioneer; his son and daughter and another son, Steven Weisenburger of Lexington, Ky.; and four grandchildren.
Disposition of Mr. Weisenburger's cremated remains was private."

10 Feb 1933, p. 4: "In Miss Lambertus' grammar class, Harry Weisenberger was called on to go to the board to demonstrate the use of the pronoun. He wrote - 'I won't cost much.' Half way to his seat Harry turned around amid the merriment of his fellow classmates and realizing his mistake returned quickly to the board and put a 't' after the 'I'."
29 Sep 1933, p. 4: "Harry Weisenburger broke his leg in an automobile accident July 13. He was in the Bismarck hospital for a month but is attending school now."
FAMILY HISTORY
In 2000, Wilma Weisenburger shared a work in progress entitled "Gramps Remembers (or Harry told me)" which is a history of the Harry Weisenburger family. Following are excerpts from the third chapter, "Growing up in Bismarck, North Dakota 1915-1938":
"Harry's father, Philip Weisenburger, built a seven-room house in Bismarck, ND, for his family. He built another house adjacent to it which provided rental income. As his family grew, his father built a larger house over the original home. The family continued to live in the seven rooms while construction was going on. The enlarged home had 41 windows. Much of the work was done at night so that Harry and his siblings could hold a light, giving Philip better visibility. Philip was a good carpenter, an electrician, a plumber and was able to read blue prints. Harry says he could build a house from 'the ground up.'
"His mother, Frieda, was energetic and enterprising as well. Besides having given birth to 12 children, she worked as a cleaning woman in office buildings and homes in Bismarck, taking some of her children with her to help. Harry remembers that he helped clean the Christian Science Reading Room and a doctor's office. His mother also brought laundry home to do for other folk. He recalls that his brother, Johnny, became quite good at ironing. During the times when money was scarce, some of the wealthier families gave his mother good used clothing for use for her growing family. Harry doesn't remember a time when his family was 'deprived.'
"His father and mother were German Baptists..He says there is no group as Baptist as German Baptists..His grandfather, Jacob Schweigert, lived with his wife, Katharina Harr Schweigert, in Bismarck also. If he happened to drop by the Weisenburger home and saw a deck of cards around, he would throw the cards in the fire. To him, playing cards was a sin. His wife and the Harr family were Lutherans. Katharina Harr played the accordion and played for dances in Russia. Dancing was thought to be a sin by German Baptists so that when she married Jacob Schweigert she gave up playing the accordion and also joined the German Baptist Church. [NOTE: the blosbalgle was a small accordion that was a popular instrument at dances; it cost about 30 rubles.]
"The church services attended by Harry's family were in German. The children went to school on Saturday to learn German so that they could participate in the church service. Prejudice ran so high during World War I that German classes for children were stopped..Harry's grandfather, Jacob, sold advertising for a German newspaper published in Bismarck. When he was in the hospital dying of prostate cance, Harry sat by his bedside at times.
"He remembers that his parents sent packages of clothes and food to some of his father's relatives in Siberia. When his father no longer heard from Siberia, the relatives were presumed dead, so they stopped sending 'care' packages..
"He says the location of Bismarck on the Northern Pacific Railroad brought many events that would not have been available to residents otherwise--Bismarck was a 'stopover.' The largest circus of its day, 'The One O One Ranch', came to Bismarck when Harry was about nine years old. He got a job helping to set up tents, etc., for a free pass to the circus. When he returned in the evening with his pass to see the show, he was told that someone else had already been admitted with his pass. Fortunately, the man with whom he had worked identified him and he was allowed in. He discovered later that his brother, Henry, had duplicated his pass and used it earlier.
"If Harry loitered on the way home from school to play and realized he would be questioned conceerning his whereabouts, he would stop by his grandmother Schweigert's, who always gave him a warm welcome and kept lemon drops on hand just for him. (He still likes lemon drops.) He sometimes helped her mop the kitchen or he might make an 'English Cake' for her using Swansdown flour. At any rate, when he reached home and was questioned about the lateness of his arrival, when he said he had been 'at Grandma's' it was all right..
"While in high school, Harry had a job shoveling snow on the sidewalks around the high school under one of President Roosevelt's Youth Corps programs. During the summer, he worked for a dairy in Bismarck delivering milk. It was his second summer working for Yegen's Dairy that the milk truck in which he was riding was involved in an accident with another vehicle. It overturned and Harry was thrown from the passenger side. The truck and its contents fell on top of him. Fortunately, most of the milk had been delivered and the milk crates were of heavy wire sectioned off. His life was saved by a milk crate propping up the load. He was dragged from the wreckage, having sustained a dislocated left hip and a broken right leg below the knee. Again, fortunately, North Dakota was one of the first states to have Worker's Compensation so his hospital and medical bills were paid in full. His father, Philip Weisenburger, was hospitalized at the same time as Harry from injuries sustained in an automobile accident caused by a drunken driver.
"..after graduation from Bismarck High School, Harry enrolled at North Dakota State College at Fargo. He chose Animal Husbandry as his major. His brother, Henry, had instructed him in some of the finer points of cribbage and poker. College was a good place to put into practice his skills. At any rate, he dropped out of college before the end of the first term.
"His family home in Bismarck was near the hospital. Cousins and friends who were nurses, or in training, were often in and out of the Weisenburger house. Among this group was a beautiful girl from Golden Valley, ND, by the name of Erna Weigum."

Occupation: carrier for the Bismarck Tribune 1938/1940
BISMARCK CITY DIRECTORIES
George is found in the 1938-39 and 1940-41 directories as carrier for the Bismarck Tribune, living at his parents' home.
MILITARY
George lied about his age in order to enlist in the US Navy before the age of 18. On December 7, 1941, he was aboard the USS Nevada, docked next to the USS Arizona, in Pearl Harbor. At just 18 years old he saw many of his shipmates die. From there he was assigned to the USS Indianapolis which sailed to the Aleutian Islands. While there, the intense pressure and long hours of duty caused him to suffer a nervous breakdown.
According to Pearl Harbor Muster Rolls, George O. Weisenburger enlisted in the Navy on 4 Dec 1940 in Minneapolis, MN. A "Report of Changes" shows that the USS Nevada sailed from Long Beach, CA, to Pearl Harbor on 11 Sep 1941. On 1 Sep 1941 George was promoted from Seaman 2nd Class to Seaman 1st Class. A "Report of Changes" dated 31 Dec 1941 shows what became of all the crew of the USS Nevada. Most were assigned to other ships, some were in the Naval Hospital at Pearl Harbor, and others died in the attack. On 13 Dec 1941 George had been transferred to the USS Indianopolis.
GREAT FALLS CITY DIRECTORY
George is found twice in the city directories for Great Falls, MT: in 1944 at 2801 Second Avenue South and in 1949 with his mother.
