  1. 1.  Johann Leonhard "Leonard" BenkelmanJohann Leonhard "Leonard" Benkelman was born on 5 Jul 1828 in Schneiderhof, Waldhausen Parish, Welzheim, Jagstkreis, W?rttemberg, Germany; died on 25 May 1913 in Manitowoc, Manitowoc County, Wisconsin; was buried in Evergreen Cemetery, Manitowoc County, Wisconsin.

    Notes:

    Leonhard, named for his father, was the trailblazer of the family. Parish records in Waldhausen show "ist 1849 Ausgewandert," meaning he emigrated in 1849. This makes him the first of the ten children [who lived into maturity] of Leonhard and Dorothea Benkelmann to leave Germany for America. Every one of his siblings eventually followed him.

    BonnieMargaret Jacobs wrote that "as in all areas of German life, there were strict requirements to be met in order to be free to leave. The emigrant had to obtain certificates from the tax collector, the pastor and from school officials that he was free from taxes, tithes of other debts. The emigrant also had to renounce their citizenship, and have a specified amount of money to sustain them in their new country until they could establish themselves." (p. 80)

    Leonard settled first in Lancaster, New York, but sometime after 1851 moved to Wisconsin, taking his newly arrived younger brother Johannes with him west. They lived first in Milwaukee, and later Leonard alone moved to Manitowac county, where he spent the rest of his life. BonnieMargaret wrote that "pamphlets about Wisconsin had been prepared to be circulated amoung the villages back home in Germany. The Wisconsin Germans were anxious to create a German community with a German culture and they aggresively recruited immigrants to their area...The early settlers in Manitowac were primarily German, Swiss and Irish. They brought with them their cheese making skills and turned Wisconsin into the dairyland of the nation. But manufacture and shipbuilding developed quickly in Manitowoc, with its access through the Great Lakes to endless markets." (Jacobs, p. 1022)

    Leonard was a veteran of the Civil War, enlisting on 8 Sept 1861 for 3 years as a private in Company A, 1st Regiment, Mechanics Fusileers, though the company disbanded, and he was and discharged on 28 Jan 1862 at Camp Douglas, Illinois. BonnieMargaret Jacobs states that at the time of his enlistment, his occupation was listed as weaver. He reenlisted in 1865 for 1 year in Company D, 48th Regiment of the Wisconsin Volunteer Infantry, and mustered out 19 February 1866 at Ft. Leavenworth, Kansas. BonnieMargaret Jacobs cites his Civil War Pension record as No. 696589, filed on 9 Oct 1890.

    His war record showed him as an engineer. The 1880 city directory listed him as the same.

    Leonhard appears to have remained in close contact with his family. The Cass City, Michigan paper had several articles over the years mentioning his visits. This brief article appeared one week after the death of Adam Benkelman. "Leonard Benkelman, from Wisconsin, brother of the late Adam Benkelman, is in town and will remain for some time." (Cass City Enterprise Published in Cass City, Mich., Jan. 6, 1898).

    A few years later, these articles also mention Leonard:

    Cass City Chronicle
    November 8, 1901

    Local Mentions

    A farewell party was given at Mrs. J. Schwegler's Monday evening in honor of her brother, Leonard and his niece Miss Cora Benkelman [daughter of Johannes Benkelman], who left for their respective homes in Manitowoc and Portage, Wisconisn, Tuesday.

    Cass City Chronicle
    October 30, 1908

    Local Mentions

    Leonard Benkelman of Manitowoc, Wis., is the guest of his sisters, Mrs. Louisa Striffler and Mrs. John Striffler and other relatives.

    A notice of his death was in the Friday, May 30, 1913 issue of the Cass City Chronicle:

    "Word has been received of the death of Leonard Benkelman, residing at Manitowoc, Wisconsin. He died at the home of his daughter, Mrs. Clark* [nee Mary Jane Clancey] Sunday morning and was buried Wednesday. Mr. Benkelman was a brother of Mrs. M.M. Schwegler and the late Mrs. John Striffler and has visited Cass City a number of times.

    *It appears from the obituary published in the Manitowoc paper that Leonard actually died in the home of his other daughter, Ella Benkelman Bodwin.

    Leonhard's step-granddaughter also ended up in Cass City. Cora Horn (daughter of Mary Jane Clancey Horn Clark) married George Albert Striffler, a nephew of Leonhard's.

    Jane Zimmerman provided the following obituary of Leonard, published in the Manitowoc Daily Herald on May 30, 1913.

    Leonard Benkelman

    Manitowoc Citizen Well Known Among German Citizens here

    From Manitowoc (Wis.) Daily Herald

    While his comrades, assembled throughout the land for memorial services Sunday, listened to tributes to their deeds of valor, Leonard Benkelman, one of the best known veterans of the county, heard taps sounded and passed on, his death occuring at the home of his daughter, Mrs. John Bodwin at Kings Bridge, due to infirmaties of age. Mr. Benkelman had been looking forward to the Memorial day services in which he had been a participant for years and the keenest disappointment shadowed his last hours when he realized that he could not survive to join with his comrades another year.

    Mr. Benkelman was born at Brech, Wuertenberg [BonnieMargaret Jacob's writes that Breech was just down and across the road from the Schneiderhof, both near B?rtlingen], Germany, July 5, 1828, and in 1848 came to America, locating at Lancaster, N.Y. where he remained two years and then came to this city where he has since resided.

    When the civil war broke out Mr. Benkelman responded to the call for volunteers and enlisted in what was known as the First regiment, Mechanic Fussillers, attached to Co. A of which Capt. W. Bates, a Manitowoc man, was in command. Later, after being honorably discharged, Mr. Benkelman enlisted with Co. D, Forty-eighth Wisconsin, and served with the comman in trying experiences on the western plains. He returned here after the war to make his home.

    Mr. Benkelman is survived by three children, Mrs. William Clark, of this city; William Benkelman, Marion, Wis., and Mrs. J. Bodwin, of Kings Bridge, sixteen grandchildren and eight great-grandchildren. A brother, John Benkelman, Portage, and one sister, Mrs. M. M. Schwegler, Cass City, Mich. also survive. One sister preceded him just two weeks ago.

    Decedent was well known in the county and was universally esteemed.

    Funeral services will be held Wednesday afternoon from the Clark home, 410 Park Street, to St. James Episcopal church and interment will be at Evergreen.

    Mary, age 18 is no longer living with her parents. It is possible that she moved to Brown County, Wisconsin, as this is where her daughter, Cora Horn, was born in 1871. On the 1870 Brown County, Wisconsin census, a 19 year old Mary HORAN, House Servant, born in Wisconsin, can be found. This may be Mary Clancey Benkelman, already married but living apart from her husband? Or it may be someone else entirely. Living two households away is a 25 year old George McCORMICK, a teamster from Ireland. McCORMICK is the maiden name of Mary's mother, also born in Ireland. However Jane Zimmerman, a descendant of Leonard and Jane Benkelman, notes that McCORMICK was/is a fairly common name, and she does not know of a connection between Jane McCormick Benkelman and George McCormick.

    Marion Advertiser - Marion, WI - May 18, 1917
    Reminiscences of Old Times - By D. A. Ramsdell
    (Courtesy of Lorraine Smith Benkelman)

    William R. Binkelman, was born in Chicago, Ill., March 2nd, 1848. From there moved to Manitowoc Wis. Apr. 2nd 1887 (sic) he married Mary M. Ramsdell, daughter of Erastus and Sylvia Ramsdell of this place. Here they resided for several years, doing business in fruit and grocery store. Hoping to better their fortunes they like many others, thought there were more opportunities in a newer country. Disposing of his business in Manitowoc in 1878, they located at Perry's Mill, Dupont.

    In writing this early experience of Mr. Binkelman, I desire the reader to take into consideration this fact that from childhood, he had been afflicted with a hip disease that debarred him--or should have done so--from strenuous labor. His education was received in the schools of Manitowoc. That he was qualified to teach a common school; he proved with the discrimination and ambition to understand anything in sight to care for and support his family. His life and expectence one of the early settler and families of Marion; should or ought to be an example, that many a man with a more rugged constitution could follow. That his first few years here were ? ? of hardship and endurances, I can well believe. To illustrate, they had been without flour for some time. He started for Clintonville, and prevailed upon F. M. Guernsey to let him have a 60lb. sack, it being all he had and all there was to be had in Clintonville at that time. With this 60 pounds of flour upon his back, he, a cripple, whom every step was the cause of pain, it must have meant a great deal to them. About half way home he met James H. Churchill and asked him where he was going. He replied, "I am going to Clintonville for flour." Mr. Binkelman told him he had the last to be got in Clintonville. Churchill said, "I have got to have flour and I am going until I find it," which he did at New London. Mr. Binkleman said of that 60 pounds of flour they had one baking of biscuit the balance of it was loaned to their neighbors, this showing the disposition and self sacrifices made for each other.

    When in 1873 the Binkelmans came to Perry's Mill they lived in a small frame house built by W. I. Ramsdell and owned by his widow. They had one child, a daughter born at Manitowoc in 1872 Ollie Estelle. She married Eldert G. Vischer, then pastor of the M. E. Church at Marion. Her's was a life of devotion to her husband and friends. She passed from earth life several years ago, with the blessed faith of life eternal.

    Ervinin May, the second daughter was born at Marion Nov. 11th 1874. She was educated at Oshkosh and Valparaiso, Ind. Married Wm. D. Huebotter of Texas in 1898. She departed this life a year or so ago, leaving three bright young boys, the eldest being 7 years. They are living with their grand parents at Oshkosh. Mr. Binkelman having legally adopted them.

    Luella, the third daughter, was born at Marion Oct. 22nd, 1876. With her father and mother her life has been one of self sacrifice to her two departed sisters.

    Frederic Mark, a son was born at Marion in 1877, a promising boy of eight years when he departed this life. The earthly remains of the brother and two sisters are laid to rest in the Dupont Cemetery.

    Tilden (sic) J., a second son was born April 14th 1879. He married Edna Cuff of New London. They have three sons, the two eldest being twins, all fine boys. Jay, as we know him, was educated in the Marion schools, finishing up a business course at Racine. Was in business with his father until he sold to L. M. DeVaud & Co. Since then he remained in their employ until six months ago, he accepted a position with a Detroit house as travelling salesman, and two weeks since his family left for Port Huron, Mich. to make their future home.

    Muriel, the youngest daughter of the family, was born in this village April 14th 1884. She is with her parents in Oshkosh, the life and joy of the household.

    I have no wish or desire to flatter or give honor or respect where it is not due, but in this case, where I can write from a knowledge of what I am writing about I think it no flattery to say that for a family laboring under the conditions that this one did, all honor is due. That he was willing anxious to undertake any kind of labor to support his family he proved. He taught school at Belle Plaine two terms, cooked in the woods, purchased 10 acres of land on the town and county line road 1 1-2 miles west of the Marion Cemetery, and now owned by Wm. Anelam, moved his family there and was living there when we came in 1875. Here with no team, trying to clear up enough to get in a crop to keep them from starving, with his neighbor Aug. Dieck who had an ox team, they would exchange work, Binkelman driving the oxen, while Dieck with his two sons August and Jule would pile up the logs, fine maple logs worth now 40 dollars per thousand feet. Had to burn them up to make room to grow something to eat. That it was a struggle to live I can well believe. In 1876 he sold his farm to Wm. Anelam and came to the village and lived in a house located where Chas. Wiesman now lives and owned by Mrs. M. Timm. On the site or near it now occupied by Joseph Miller's grocery store, Binkelman and a man named Ritter, started a Hardware Store. It was a little frame building and I think built by a man from Royalton, have forgotten his name. Later the same year, Mr. Binkelman bought out Ritter. In 1877 he bought of W. R. Brainard, two lots in Block 8; original plat, and erected the north half of the DeVaud hardware store. In this was the only hall we had for years. In this half our different societies met, here our debating club thrashed out the principal questions of the day. Perhaps the world's war could have been amicably settled by us, had Germany been ready to fight. I believe here is where Louis Bowers did his last playing for our dances. 'Twas good music and faithfuly performed. Just before daylight a hat was passed around for collection. It came back, the hat did, 'this is a fact for I was there as the 2nd Violinist, and was to receive one half and there was no division of that collection, it was mostly pants buttons. Had Louis found out who was ? these buttons he would have returned them but he never did. That Mr. Binkelman prospered and his business grew, is due to his attention and hard work. In a few years he added to his store as it stands today. In 1913 he sold to L. M. DeVaud & Co. and moved to Oshkosh to take a rest. Call on him at 575 Main St. and see if you think he is. Mr. Binkelman has always taken a great interest in Marion. He is still the possessor of two fine residences, one on Garfield Ave., occupied by the Jos. Miller family and the other on Railroad Ave. and Clinton St. now the home of the Kelly family. Was Postmaster one term, Clerk of the Circuit Court at Waupaca, Chairman of the town of Dupont, Treasurer of the School District and also director of High School. Has been prominent in all that pertained to the welfare of the town and village. Their removal from this village to Oshkosh was a loss to the community and more especially the M. E. Church of which I think they are still members. That they received the rest they required by their removal would appear to an onlooker as a question for our old Debating Club. What do you say to it Will?

    BonnieMargaret Jacobs wrote that she had received a handwritten copy of his obituary from Mrs. John Arndt, and that it was carried in the Marion Advertiser on September 26, 1969(???). She does not show a date of death, however, and 1969 would make him nearly 120.

    Notes:

    Census records show she was born in Wisconsin, however Jane Zimmerman writes that her actual place of birth was Chicago.

    Mary's first marriage was to a HORNE, and she and two children, Cora and William Horn, can be found on the 1880 Manitowoc census.

    It is likely she was the widow of John E. Horne, a civil war veteran who was some twenty years her senior. Perhaps she was his second wife? This appears to be the most likely scenario, as John E. Horne, her son, William, and her stepfather and mother, Leonard and Jane Benkelman, all share a common burial plot and grave marker. It might also be possible that she was instead the widow/divorced wife of John's son, Daniel, who was a few years her junior.

    John E. Horne's tombstone is marked "Co. D., Twentieth Wisconsin Infantry."

    The Manitowoc County Civil War Round Table has the following information posted about John E. Horne. It is not known with certainty, however, if the 1870 census transcription they include below, is for the same John Horne. If it is for him, his marriage to Mary Clancey Benkelman must have occurred soon after this census enumeration, as her daughter, Cora Horne, was born early in 1871.

    At the time of the 1870 census, Mary, age 18 was no longer living with her parents. It is possible that she moved to Brown County, Wisconsin, as this is where her daughter, Cora Horn, was born in 1871. On the 1870 Brown County, Wisconsin census, a 19 year old Mary HORAN, House Servant, born in Wisconsin, can be found. Living two households away is a 25 year old George McCormick, a teamster from Ireland. McCORMICK is the maiden name of Mary's mother. It is not certain, however, that Mary HORAN and Mary Jane are the same individual, however. Additionally, John Horne is found in the 1870 Fond du Lac census, but with a wife and 14 year old son.

    1870 Census, WI, Fond du Lac, Ward 5:
    John Horne, 41, Male, White, Carpenter, RE 800, PE 200, born Scotland
    Julia, 38, Female, White, Keeping House, born Scotland
    Chd: Daniel, 14, born NY


    Therefore, further research should be done to determine the exact nature of the connection between John E. Horne and the Benkelman family of Manitowoc; who Mary Clancey Benkelman's first husband was; and if the 1870 census transcriptions above even relate to John E. Horne or to Mary Clancey Benkelman Horne buried in Evergreen Cemetery.

    Mary Jane remained close to her stepfather, Leonard Benkelman, and Art Peck writes that she took care of her step-father in his declining years. He was listed in her home at the time of the 1900 census.

    She also visited her stepfather's extended family in Cass City, Michigan, were her daughter resided, as can be seen from the follow brief mention:

    Notes:

    Monday, Jan. 17th 1916 occured the death of Ervenia Mary Huebotter at Tokio Texas from pnuemonia. She was the daughter of William and Mary Binkleman, pioneers of Marion. Ervenia was born Nov. 11th 1874 at Perry's Mill, Town of Dupont, now the Village of Marion. Jan. 11th, 1908 she married William D. Huebotter of Burnham, Texas. Only a few short years of wedded life and she was called, leaving a fond husband and three motherless boys.

    Ervenia's early life was passed at Marion with her many friends and associates and was a general favorite. She became a member of the M.E. Church in her youth and in both Church and Sunday School was a devoted and constant worker. After completing High School in Marion, she attended the Normal at Oshkosh. From there she went to Valpariso, Ind., and graduated in the school of Expression. While at that college, she met her husband, a student in the department of law. Since their marriage, they have made their home in the state of Texas.

    The sad news of her loss was a shock to the people of this vicinity, a week ago Monday, when told of her death. Her sister Luella, started upon notice of her illness, but reached Tokio only in time to accompany the husband, babies and remains of Ervenia to her old home. Tuesday, Jan, 25th 1916, the body of the departed was laid at rest in the Dupont Cemetery, by the side of a loved brother and sister.

    Funeral services were held at the residence of her brother, Jay Binkleman, conducted by the Rev. W. Taylor, Pastor of the M.E. Church of Marion. Left of the family to mourn her absence are her husband and children, a father and mother, two sisters and one brother.

  5. 10.  Lyndon Jay "Jay" Binkelman Descendancy chart to this point (2.William2, 1.Johann1) was born on 14 Apr 1880 in Marion, Waupaca County, Wisconsin; and died.

    Notes:

    Jay, as we know him, was educated in the Marion schools, finishing up a business course at Racine. Was in business with his father until he sold to L. M. DeVaud & Co. Since then he remained in their emply until six months ago, he accepted a position with a Detroit house as travelling salesman, and two weeks since his family left for Port Huron, Mich. to make their future home. Muriel, the youngest daughter of the family, was born in this village April 14th 1884. She is with her parents in Oshkosh, the life and joy of the household. I have no wish or desire to flatter or give honor or respect where it is not due, but in this case, where I can write from a knowledge of what I am writing about I think it no flattery to say that for a family laboring under the conditions that this one did, all honor is due. That he was willing anxious to undertake any kind of labor to support his family he proved. He taught school at Belle Plaine two terms, cooked in the woods, purchased 10 acres of land on the town and county line road 1 1-2 miles west of the Marion Cemetery, and now owned by Wm. Anelam, moved his family there and was living there when we came in 1875. Here with no team, trying to clear up enough to get in a crop to keep them from starving, with his neighbor Aug. Dieck who had an ox team, they would exchange work, Binkelman driving the oxen, while Dieck with his two sons August and Jule would pile up the logs, fine maple logs worth now 40 dollars per thousand feet. Had to burn them up to make room to grow something to eat. That it was a struggle to live I can well believe. In 1876 he sold his farm to Wm. Anelam and came to the village and lived in a house located where Chas. Wiesman now lives and owned by Mrs. M. Timm. On the site or near it now occupied by Joseph Miller's grocery store, Binkelman and a man named Ritter, started a Hardware Store

    At the time he completed his registration for the draft during World War I, his address was 291 King, Detroit, MI, and he was foreman at Dodge Bros (Badge 52501). He was 5'10', and weighed 165.

    Notes:

    Jane Zimmerman emailed that "Arthur was working on the Great Lakes boats when the 1930 census was taken, Merchant Marine type of work I guess you'd call it. At the same time the farm Adolph Grimm was running needed farm help because most of his children had left home. As a result, Mary moved back home while Arthur worked the boats. Her sons, Ralph, Everett, Leonard, and Donald were able to do the farm work. The farm was a very nice one, with a large farmhouse making it easy enough to accomodate the extra family. The girls, helped out around the house & garden. It was a very profitable partnership for both sides. The farm is still in the Grimm family, although not run as a family farm. I believe the land is rented out. The buildings are well kept up and very neat. This farm is in the Town of Two Creeks."

    Jane also indicated that Arthur became ill while working on a ship that docked in Chicago. His niece, Irene Bosanko helped him check into the Marine Hospital where he was operated on for a poisonous goiter, and he died after after the surgery. After his death, his remains were returned to Mishicot for burial.
