He was born in Germany and emigrated to America with his parents and two
younger brothers. He was a farmer and a carpenter. They bought a farm,
northeast of Greer laying just to the north of his father's farm.
Leonard liked his bottle fairly well and my father told me several times about his father sending him on horseback with 2 bushels of corn and 2 jugs draped over the borse, to a distillery located near Jimtown (Corners) a few miles away. For the corn and two and a half dollars he would get two gallon jugs of whiskey. (I suppose it was moonshine as I never heard of any legal distillery in that area). They moved to Loudonville (N Mt Vernon Ave) in 1911. They transferred their membership from Kaylor Ridge to Zion Lutheran. Both are buried in Loudonville Cemetery.
*Note added later - I find in an atlas of Holmes County a list of business men in the various villages and there were men whose occupation was listed as distillers in Napoleon (Black Creek now Glenmont P O) and Oxford, now Killbuck. Killbuck Distilling Co was also listed owned by Weidman & Sons. Other notes remembered at random.
Grandma Stitzlein also told me about leaving their home in Herrinburg and traveling at night. Father was afraid the boys would be picked up for service in the army. After they crossed the Rhine into France they were able to travel in daytime to Marseilles on the Mediteranian Sea where they embarked by sailing ship for "Nach America". They were 80+ days enroute to New York. In mid-atlantic they must have hit the 'doldrums'. There were many days without wind to propel them and some days the currents would carry them farther east at sunset than they were at sunrise. She also often mentioned a little girl being buried at sea one morning and that there was music and dancing on the deck that evening. She was very upset about this.
After they were settled, near Greer in Knox County Ohio, she obtained a job as a 'Hired Girl' (house worker) in Wooster with the family of John McSweeney. He was a noted criminal lawyer and also served a number of terms in Congress. She was off duty from Saturday, after the noon dishes were cleaned up, until Sunday night. If the weather was decent she would walk home and spend Saturday evening with her family and then walk back to Wooster from Kaylor Ridge after church. When she went home, she was also expected to turn her earnings over to her father. This, at that time, was an obligation that all children under 21, especially those of German descent, owed to their families. In turn, the parents would furnish a daughter's bedroom when she married, give her a mulch cow, and furnish as much of her kitchen as t hey could afford. They would try to give their sons a team, a wagon, a plow, and a harrow (for working down plowed ground). These were the basic things needed to set a family up in a farm home. Any other tools the man needed he could borrow or rent, oftentimes pad for by day labor, until they were able to buy their own. They would usually sharecrop until they were able to buy their own farm.
She also used to talk about, before the railroads were built how the farmers, in order to get cash for some of their crops, would haul their wheat to Massillon or Dover for shipment by canal boat. They would camp along the way and it usually took about a week with a four-line team to make the round trip. I am also informed that some farmers hauled their grain to Zanesville for shipment by riverboat.
My father also used to tell about the family sitting around the fire on late summer evenings peeling and schnitzing apples which the women would then dry by sun or oven, depending on the weather. In late November they would take these dried apples to (W .A.) Fisher's or the other women's clothing store and trade them for cloth. They would then spend the rest of the winter making the cloth into clothes for both the men and women. He said that the merchants would have their 2nd floors full of dried apples which would be sold to buyers, shortly after Christmas, who represented distilleries. The apples would be made into Apple Jack. (Fisher's in Loudonville).
