First Families of Huron County Member #360
When I was young I remember my mother, Helen Eileen (Miller) Major, often spoke of how some of her ancestors have immigrated from Germany, in particular, her grandmother Nettie Eberling. Family lore had her coming to America as a young girl by herself. Nettie brought all of her belongs in a large wooden trunk that our family has to this day. All of this Eberling Family was buried in a cemetery very near where we grew up, but I knew little about them, or their journey to America.
Friedrich Phillip Eberling LBMY-YK6
(18 May 1839-25 March 1925)
and
Raharina Heymann LBMY-LMY
(16 November 1834-4 March 1908)
(18 May 1839-25 March 1925)
and
Raharina Heymann LBMY-LMY
(16 November 1834-4 March 1908)
Friedrich was born on 18 May 1839 in the municipality of Burgschwalbach, in the district of Rhein-Lahn-Kries, in Rhineland-Palatinate of Germany. (Federation of Hahnstatten) This area is in Southwestern Germany. His parents were Johann F. Eberling and Anna Eva Reitz. Raharina (Catherine) Heymann, the daughter of Charles Heymann and Maria Elizabeth ?, was born on 16 November 1834 in Germany, place unknown. They were married in 1865. I have researched this side of the family back three more generations on Friedrich’s mother’s side in Germany and continue to discover new information at this writing. My research found the immigration records showing the Eberling Family entered the port of New York City on 11 June 1884 aboard the SS Rhaetia, which departed Hamburg, Germany on 28 May 1884, according to New York passenger lists and the Castle Gardens roster lists. Castle Gardens served as the immigration processing center until Ellis Island began handling immigration in 1890. On the document his last name is spelled Ebereling. The manifest lists him, his wife and three children; Wilhelmina (Minnie), age 16, Friedrich age 9, and another male, name looks like Philip, age 7. (Hamburg Passenger Lists, 1880-1934)
The family made their way to Huron County, Ohio almost immediately. I have lived in this county for the last 46 years and had no idea that some of my ancestors had first settled here. Doing research in one’s own back yard is a real plus. Now, of course, I began to wonder why here??? And what about Nettie? Supposedly she had come on her own at age 16, but was that before or after her family and where did she enter the United States? And where was she in 1884? First, discover Nettie’s information.
Finding Nettie’s obituary in the Payne Reflector Newspaper in Payne, Ohio on 2 February 1933 it states that Nettie came alone to America at age 15 in 1882. I did a thorough search of passenger lists for that year and found a Johannethea Eberling, age 16, on a Baltimore passenger list. No other Eberlings were on board this vessel. Dated entry was 19 May 1882 aboard the ship Hohenzollern, having departed Bremen, Germany. (She was actually 15 with an August birthday, when she would have been 16) Nettie’s grandfather, Friedrich’s father, was named Johann.
Now for the second question, why come to Huron County, Ohio? Obtaining Frederick’s obituary from the Bellevue Gazette Newspaper in Bellevue, Ohio dated 27 March 1925 it listed as a survivor, a sister, Mrs. Charles (Philomena) Hasselbach. This was new information. Upon researching Philomena and obtaining her obituary from the Bellevue Gazette dated 22 February 1926 and making several visits to St. John’s Lutheran Church in Bellevue, Ohio to review church records, much has been learned. In her obituary it states she was born in Germany and immigrated to the U.S. early in 1865 with her parents. (Though I now believe she immigrated with her fiancé’s parents finding a passenger list record that indicates as much.) Charles and Philomena were married on 28 May 1865. Immigration records show Charles had immigrated in 1864. See my complete narrative of the Charles and Philomena (Eberling) Hasselbach Family.
I reviewed all church records at St. John’s from the founding of the church in 1864 through 1930. All records were in German until 1903. Nowhere do the names of Johann and Anna Eva Eberling show up in these early records so I believe if Philomena’s parents did immigrate with her in 1865 that they either attended another church or no church at all, which would be unusual, or they did not come to Huron County. Again an indication that she may have come with her in-laws.
The Eberlings were farmers and it is assumed they found work in agriculture in the area. There is no record in the Grantee/Grantor books of them owning any land during this time in Huron County. Frederick’s application to become a naturalized citizen was approved on 12 December 1887, according to his naturalization papers that I secured at the Huron County Courthouse. Practice at the time was that the male head of a household would apply for citizenship. Once granted, it was assumed that all family members were now citizens. Sometime after this the family moved to Paulding County, Ohio. Due to no surviving 1890 U. S. Census we may never know exactly when, but Nettie’s second child was born was born in Paulding County in July 1890 and it is most likely that Frederick and Catherine’s family had moved along with her.
We do not know how long Frederick, Catherine, and sons Philip and Fred stayed in Paulding County. Nettie married a second time there in 1892 and took up residence. Fred married and moved around 1897. According to the U. S. Census of 1900 the family was now living in Jackson, Allen, Indiana. Frederick (61), Catherine (65), Philip (23) and Oscar (13). They had a mailing address of Woodburn, Indiana. Oscar is their grandson from Nettie’s first marriage. The census states they are naturalized, been married 33 years and own a farm. In searching land surveys of this township one was located for 1898 and the Eberlings do not appear anywhere as land owners. A 1907 survey shows them owning a 40 acre plot in Section 7 in Jackson Township. Referring back to the 1898 survey the very same plot was owned by Florian Voirol. Without a thorough land record search in Allen County, Indiana I do not know exactly how they came to own this land. They may have been renting this farm before they purchased it.
Catherine died on 4 March 1908 of pneumonia and influenza in Jackson, Allen, Indiana. (DC) She was buried on 6 March 1908 at Lehman Cemetery in Benton Township, outside of Payne, Ohio. Catherine’s granddaughter Minnie Miller, Nettie’s daughter by her first marriage, had been buried there a year earlier in July 1907 so it’s assumed there was a family plot available. (FAG ID#55901676) *Allen County, Indiana and Paulding County, Ohio set adjacent along the Ohio and Indiana state line. Jackson Township, Allen County abuts Benton Township, Paulding County..
The 1910 U. S. Census shows Frederick (70) and son Philip (33) living in the same location in Jackson, Allen, Indiana. It indicates they have a farm mortgage and that he was naturalized citizen in 1884.
In 1920 they are still on the same 40 acre tract. Frederick (80) is listed as widowed with no occupation and Philip (43) is single and lists his occupation as a farmer. The farm is still listed as mortgaged.
Sometime after this Frederick and Philip returned to Bellevue, Huron County, Ohio and purchased lots in that city. Upon Frederick’s death he and Philip were living on Moore Street in Lyme Township (Bellevue, Ohio) and owned 3 parcels (In Lots) in that section of town. In the church records of St. John Lutheran Church in downtown Bellevue, Ohio, Frederick is listed as a new member of the church in 1922 in book #4. (This is a loose unnumbered page) Frederick died in Bellevue on 25 March 1925 from chronic nephritis and arterial sclerosis. (DC) Church burial records book #4 also confirm Frederick’s (page 252 line #12 and page 285) funeral services were held at St. John’s with his burial date of 28 March 1925 in Lehman Cemetery in Payne, Ohio. (FAG ID#193361795) He was buried next to Catherine with one headstone marking their graves. I obtained a copy of Frederick’s will filed on 28 October 1922 in Payne, Ohio and a codicil on August 1924 in Huron County, Ohio and also the Probate Records of his estate executed in Huron County, Ohio. One lot was kept by Philip, one sold for cash and the other split between the heirs. Philip, who never married, served as executor and Frederick’s estate was divided between his three surviving children, Philip, Nettie Miller and Minnie Enderle.

Their Children
Johannethea “Nettie’ Eberling LBMY-LJY
(9 August 1866-27 January 1933)
Johannethea “Nettie’ Eberling LBMY-LJY
(9 August 1866-27 January 1933)
Johannethea was born in Burgschwalbach, Germany on 9 August 1866. She emigrated from Germany alone at the age of 15 in 1882. Nettie married Wilhelm Mueller (William Miller), (11 July 1861-?), 5 September 1886 at St. Peter’s German Lutheran Church in Peru, Huron, Ohio. William and Nettie’s first child, Oscar Joseph Miller, was born in Monroeville, Huron, Ohio on 2 December 1886. Their second child, Minnie Pauline Miller, was born in Benton, Paulding, Ohio in 1890.
When or how Nettie and her first husband parted is unknown. No divorce record exists nor does any account of William’s possible death in Huron or Paulding County records, so it is unclear what officially ended their marriage. Between the birth of Minnie Pauline Miller (12 January 1890) and Nettie’s second marriage (July 1892), William seems to have disappeared. I suppose it is possible he may have died before Nettie gave birth to Minnie. It is possible that William Miller never came to Paulding County at all. On Nettie’s ML to her second husband, William Phillip Miller in 1892, it states that Nettie has no husband living. We know this extended Eberling Family came to Paulding County sometime after 1887. For a complete account of this family please see my narrative of The Wilhelm and Nettie (Eberling) Mueller Family.
Nettie’s second marriage was to William Phillip Miller, (LB3T-NCT), on 27 July 1892 in Paulding County, Ohio. William Phillip (23 October 1839-3 October 1911) was born in the Nassau, Paurod, Germany.
He first married Philippine Schnatz in about 1866-67, most likely in Sandusky County, Ohio.(See my complete narrative of the William Phillip and Philippine (Schnatz) Miller Family) By 1875 they had moved to Huron County, Ohio. William and Philippine moved to Paulding County, Ohio sometime in 1885. Philippine died in Paulding County, Ohio on 14 January 1887 and was buried in oldest section of Lehman Cemetery in Benton, Paulding, Ohio. (FAG ID#57017999)
William and Nettie were married (ML) in Paulding County on 5 August 1892. They combined households and soon had two of their own children. Rosa Matilda (96DJ-SK5) born on 26 June 1893 and died 2 April 1983, and Edith Minnie (L4SJ-CR6) born on 13 September 1895 and died on 7 June 1984. William died on 3 October 1911 and was buried in the oldest section of Lehman Cemetery next to his first wife Philippine. (FAG ID#57018057) Nettie died from a cerebral hemorrhage in Woodburn, Jackson, Allen, Indiana on 27 January 1933, while possibly living with her daughter Rosa. She was buried next to her daughter Minna in Lehman Cemetery Benton, Paulding, Ohio. (FAG ID# 55527120) See my complete narrative of The William Phillip and Nettie (Eberling) Miller Family.

Wilhelmina “Minnie” Eberling LBMY-B5P
(1 October 1868-23 February 1950)
(1 October 1868-23 February 1950)
Wilhelmina was born in Burgschwalbach, Germany on 1 October 1868. She arrived in America with her parents and two brothers on 11 June 1884 when she was 15 years old. She lived with her family in Huron County for a few years before meeting and marrying Wilhelm Friedrich Enderle, (L76C-9XT), another German emigrant. William was born in Blackheim, Nordheim, Wuttenberg, Germany on 12 April 1867. He was the son of Jakob Friedrich Enderle (1813-1887) and Johana Sara Rueker (1827-1860). William arrived in New York City on 21 September 1883 aboard the ship Rhynland which departed Antwerp, Belgium. They were married by Pastor L. Bach, Minister of the Gospel, on 27 November 1888 (ML) in Monroeville, Huron, Ohio.
They would have six children with their first son, Frederick William Enderle (22 October 1889-23 May 1964) being born in Sandusky County, Ohio. Their second son, Edward Enderle (14 January 1892-30 December 1973) was born in Monroeville, Huron, Ohio. Sometime after this the family moved to Crane Township, Paulding, Ohio as their third son, Willie F. Enderle, (25 February 1896-3 August 1898), was born there in 1896.
The 1900 U. S. Census has the family in Crane, Paulding, Ohio renting a farm. William lists his year of immigration as 1883 and Minnie as 1884. William (33), Minnie (31), Fred (10) and Rosa M. (8/12)
A 1905 Survey of Paulding County, Ohio shows W. F. Enderle owning a tract of land in Crane Township just north of Knoxdale, Ohio to the west of the junction of roads T-69 and T-206, abutting the Maumee River to the northwest.
On the 1910 census the family is living on Hargrove Pike RR #2 Antwerp, Paulding, Ohio. William (33), Minnie (31), Fred W. (20), Edward (18), and Nettie (4). The men are listed as William, a farm owner, and Fred and Edward as farm hands.
A tragic event occurred when William committed suicide on 17 October 1913 while he, wife Minnie and daughter Nettie were visiting Minnie’s brother Philip and father Frederick Eberling at their residence in Jackson, Allen, Indiana. (See William “Fred” Enderle’s obituary at the Paulding County Library) He was buried in Forder Cemetery in Crane, Paulding, Ohio. (FAG ID#194829253)
Minnie remained on the farm, which may have been deeded to her son Fred Enderle at some point, for some time. She did live with her married daughter Nettie Hooks in Hicksville, Ohio, according to the 1930 U. S. Census, but returned to live with Fred by the 1940 census. She died while living with Fred on 23 February 1950. She was buried at Lehman Cemetery in Payne, Ohio next to her parents and sister Nettie. (FAG ID#55527047)
