Generation No. 1

1. AMBROSE⁷ BRECKHEIMER (HEINRICH⁶, HEINRICH⁵, WIGAND⁴, CHRISTIAN GEORGE³, VIANDUS², JACOB¹ BRECKEMER)was born March 11, 1830 in Weiler, Rhine, Germany, and died July 02, 1901 in Town Rhine, Sheboygan Co., Wi. He married ANNA MARIA COBLENZ August 21, 1854 in Town Rhine, Sheboygan Co., WI, daughter of PHILIPP COBLENZ and ANNA MASSING.

Notes for AMBROSE BRECKHEIMER:
Ambrose Breckheimer left his homeland in Weiler, Rhine Province, Germany in 1851. He had one brother, Adam, who had bought his farm in the town of Rhine, Sheboygan County, in 1848. He evidently came to his brother's house to live. Ambrose purchased his farm in the town of Rhine the 23rd of July 1851, from DeLorma and Lila Brooks, (land prospectors from New Lisbon Ohio, who had purchased the land from the U.S. Government.) He paid $150.00 for the 80 acres. He later purchased 30 acres of land on the south side of the road from the 80 acres, south of county trunk (A) today.

Ambrose lived the life of a bachelor for three years while he cleared the land and built a log cabin on his land. He also made his own furniture from the wood on his land. Then he sent for his bride from Weiler, Germany. This log cabin was south of the present buildings. It served as the family home for the first nine children. Only the last two children were born in the new home that Ambrose built - so the new home was built around 1867. I was told that Ambrose made a table and benches, bed and dresser. (My father inherited this dresser which is still in use today). He also made a cradle, which is also in existence today.

Ambrose sent for his wife in 1854. We have not found a passenger list, but it is believed that she came in August with Ambrose's brother Henry. Ambrose and Anna Maria Koblenz married 21 August 1854 in the chapel in the town of Rhine. Henry Breckheimer bought his farm in the town of Rhine on the 19 of August 1854.

The Breckheimer's had eleven children, - ten of which grew to adulthood After the Ambrose Breckheimer's retired, they sold the farm to their eldest daughter Magdalena and her husband, John George Kestell. They sold their farm 9 June 1894, and moved to Elkhart Lake. The house is still standing in good condition. It is the first place west of the Garage on Rhine street - one block west of the Catholic Church.

Notes for ANNA MARIA COBLENZ:
Anna Maria Coblenz left her parents and twelve brothers and sisters in Weiler, Germany at the time that Ambrose Breckheimer invited her to come to the United States to become his bride. We have assumed that Henry Breckheimer came to the States with Ambrose's future wife, as Henry bought his farm in the Town of Rhine in August of 1854, right about the same time that Ambrose and Anna Maria were married. That would have been a very scary trip for Anna Maria to make alone, as there was very poor travel conditions in 1854. There were no trains going into Wisconsin at all. It is assumed that they took a boat and came as far as Sheboygan and were met there by Ambrose.

Several years later, Anna Maria and Ambrose Breckheimer had her younger brother John Koblenz come to the States from Weiler with his wife and family. They lived in Elkhart Lake their entire lives in Wisconsin.

Notes for JOSEPH SCHLOEMER:
Joseph and Katherine did not have children, but Joe did have at least one son from a previous marriage.

Joseph's father invented one of the first cars built, but there were many inventors of cars in that time, and rarely was more than one car built from the same pattern. His car never became popular. The following was in "Wisconsin Then and Now" Vol. xx1 No. 8, page 15:

In 1890, a practical self propelled gasoline vehicle was designed by Gottfried Schloemer of Milwaukee. One of the first such cars in the U.S., the motor had, instead of spark plugs, "a make & break" system by which two steel points struck up a spark and ignited the gas. These points were fragile, needing replacement every few miles.

Spring 1970 - Wisconsin - "Tales & Trails" Page 24. Charles & Frank Duryea from Massachusetts usually are credited with building and operating America's first successful motor vehicle to run on gas. Their machine was built in 1893, yet 4 years earlier, the SCHLOEMER was chugging down Milwaukee streets, produced by Schloemer-Toepfer in Milwaukee. A Schloemer car has been preserved by the Milwaukee Public Museum as the first practical gasoline-powered auto in the nation.

The 1st FWD Car, later christened the Battleship, was large and roomy. It held 8 people - e in front, four in the rear, and two on folding seats. Many other cars had a "Mother-in-law seat". This single seat was located in the rear and was hard to get into and out of. Once settled, there was no top or windshield to protect the passenger. She couldn't even shout at the couple up front.

2. MAGDALENA⁸ BRECKHEIMER (AMBROSE⁷, HEINRICH⁶, HEINRICH⁵, WIGAND⁴, CHRISTIAN GEORGE³, VIANDUS², JACOB¹ BRECKEMER) was born June 28, 1855 in Town Rhine, Sheboygan Co., WI., and died September 14, 1902. She married JOHN GEORGE KESTELL November 15, 1881 in St. Francis, Milwaukee, Wi., son of JOHANN KASTEL and URSULA KREBBEL.

Notes for MAGDALENA BRECKHEIMER:

Notes for JOHN GEORGE KESTELL:
John George Kestell was born 24 August 1853, the son of Johann Baptist Kastel and Ursula Kreppel/Krebbel/Krippel, in the town of Germantown, Washington County, Wi. He married , Jane Daily, a neighbor girl, about 1880. She died giving birth to their first born son on 12 March, 1881. Jane was born December 20, 1840 at Rochester, New York, the daughter of John and Nancy Daily. She was 40 years old when she died. She was 13 years older then John George. She is buried on Nelson's burial ground, Waukesha, Co.

The 26th of August 1880, John Kastell bought the farm from his mother for $1,000. with the personal. In the 1870 census, the property was valued as follows: 20 acres improved land, 20 acres woods valued at $1500. and $50. worth of machinery: 2 milking cows, 2 working oxen, 5 swine, $100. all livestock; 80 bushels wheat, 20 bushels rye, 10 bushels oats, 10 lbs. wool, 25 bushels peas and beans, 60 bushels Irish potatoes. $10.00 orchard products, 300 lbs. butter, 8 tons hay, $55.00 worth of animals slaughtered; $650.00 estimated value of all farm products. There was also a plow, a spring tooth, and a drag included in the machinery.

On October 3, 1881, there was a land entry between Nancy Daily and John G. Kestell (as he spells his name now) . According to the indenture, Jane, John George's wife, had bought the farm a few years earlier from her mother, but I guess the papers were not made at the time. Jane had died in March and the estate was being settled. Before the death of Johann Baptist Kastel, John George went by the name of 'George", because of the confusion with his father's name. He kept using the name of 'George until the time of his death, even though he had a brother by the name of George.

Eight months after Jane died, John George Kestell married Magdalena Breckheimer, daughter of Ambrose Breckheimer and Anna Maria Koblenz in St. Francis Church in Milwaukee. They were married by Rev. P. Ignatius Ullrich on 15 Nov. 1881. Lena Breckheimer was born 28 June 1855, in the town of Rhine, Sheboygan County. She went to Milwaukee to find work as a young girl and that is when she met John George. Magdalena died of Broncho pneumonia following a case of the measles, on the 14 Sept. 1902. She is buried on St. George's Catholic Cemetery in the town of Rhine - just one half mile north from the family homestead.

On the 19th Jan. 1882, John George sold the homestead farm to John Conrath Wiseckel with the personal. He must have gotten the farm back, as on the 15 Oct. 1886, GEORGE John Kestell and wife Magdalena sold the farm to John Tiry (George Kestell was married to Ferdinanda Tiry), and on the same day, 15 Oct. 1886, John Tiry sold the homestead farm to Charles Dallmann of Milwaukee County. Charles Dallmann was married to Christina Kaestel, a sister of John George's.

John George Kestell and his wife Magdalena and family of seven children, lived on the "Daily" farm in Germantown until 9 June 1894, when they bought the farm in the town of Rhine, Sheboygan County, from Ambrose Breckheimer and his wife Anna Maria. The Breckheimers were the parents of Magdalena Kestell. They paid 3500.00 for 110 acres of land and all the buildings. Magdalena and smaller children came to Elkhart Lake by train, and the household furniture was moved up by wagons and teams. John G. Kestell III was ten years old at the time. The Breckheimers moved to a house in Elkhart Lake to retire. Ambrose lived until 2 July 1901, and Anna Maria outlived her daughter by a good many years and passed away 16 Jan. 1917.

A few years before John George's death, he was picking apples in the orchard. He used a chair that had posts on the back lean, to climb up into the tree. He slipped and fell from the tree and hit the chair on one of the posts and injured his intestines. He lived for several years, but he was not in good health. He died 31 Jan. 1905. He is buried beside his wife on St. George's Cemetery in the town of Rhine, just one half mile north of the farm

Anna and John were the only ones who were over 21 years of age when their father and mother were both dead. Anna had just married the September before her father's death. Francis Williams was appointed guardian of Julius, Charles, Arthur, Margaret and Catherine. Katie was 10 years of age when her mother died and just 13 when her father died. She was the youngest in the family. John had just signed papers with his father on his 21st birthday to take over running of the farm. When Julius was 21, he went into partnership with John. The 5th of October 1905, John George III bought 26 acres from Julia Feldmann and her husband John for $1000.00. Now the farm was 136 acres total. John George III also bought the personal property from his father before his death. He borrowed the money from his grandmother Breckheimer.

11. JOHN GEORGE⁹ KESTELL (MAGDALENA⁸ BRECKHEIMER, AMBROSE⁷, HEINRICH⁶, HEINRICH⁵, WIGAND⁴, CHRISTIAN GEORGE³, VIANDUS², JACOB¹ BRECKEMER) was born January 12, 1884 in Town Germantown, Washington Co., Wi., and died December 17, 1918 in Town Rhine, Sheboygan Co., Wi. He married ELIZABETH NETZER June 09, 1908 in Holy Trinity, School Hill, Manitowoc Co., Wi., daughter of JOHN NETZER and MARGARET BINVERSIE.

Notes for JOHN GEORGE KESTELL:
John George Kestell III was born 12 Jan. 1884 in the Town of Germantown, Washington County, WI. He married Elizabeth Netzer at Holy Trinity Church at School Hill Wisconsin on 8 June 1909. They went to Niagara Falls on their honeymoon after a reception at the home of the brides parents. John died 17 December 1918 after a weeks illness with the flu and double pneumonia. They were married nine and one half years at the time of his death. John and Elizabeth had four children: Lester, Melroy, Helen and Evelyn.

Elizabeth was born 23 August 1883 in the town of Meeme, Manitowoc County, WI., and died 24 May 1982 in the town of Centerville, Manitowoc Co. She was three months short of her 99th birthday.

Before John's death, he had put an important addition on the house - a pantry and a bathroom. In order to have running water, one had to hand pump water to a tank above the kitchen. This water circulated through a water front on the kitchen range and heated it for the bathroom. When we moved to Sheboygan, we didn't even have a bathroom in our house there. We had a toilet in the basement with a tank up high with a long chain on it which you had to pull to flush the toilet.

After the death of her husband, Elizabeth could not go on farming with four small children to support and raise - the oldest was seven and the youngest was two, so she rented the farm to Louis Dessloch and his family and sold the personal to him. The farm was rented to the Dessloch family for five years. In the meantime, Elizabeth and her four children moved to Sheboygan where Elizabeth worked part time at Jungs Department Store, and also at H.C. Prange. (Cont'd under more about Elizabeth)

Notes for ELIZABETH NETZER:
After fives years time, and the lease for the farm was up, Lester was 12 years old and Melroy was 10, and they wanted to move back to the farm. In May of 1924 the big move was made. That summer was a very hard one for Elizabeth, as the farm and the farm home was very run down and needed very much work to get it back to normal. Every room in the house had the wall paper torn off and was repapered or repainted, or both. Everyone of the kids helped in the big project.

The first year that we were back to the farm, Elizabeth had the farm run by a neighbor, Fred Toll, on shares. Then four cows were purchased from Sixel's near Cleveland. In those days, there were not any trucks to haul them, or it was not the practice, so we drove them from Cleveland to Elkhart Lake. There were at least two or three cars that would pick up us kids to get ahead of the cows while someone else would drive them along. Of course, in those days, there were good fences along the roads. Someone would have to be ahead to keep the cows from going into an open gate or turning a corner or going into a driveway.

Then a new car was purchased and the big expense of getting personal property, horses etc. that were very necessary to running the farm. The boys would have to go out and do chores before they went to school, as the hired man left when the field work was finished until spring's work began. If wood had to be made, the hired man was there a few weeks longer.

The year that Lester was 16, and Melroy was 14, they did all the farm work with the very good guidance of their mother. We all enjoyed our field trips to check on the crops.

We were only back on the farm about four years when the stock market crash came in 1929 We had just had our farm wired for Electricity as the Electric Power came past our place in 1929. Mom had bought a new radio, and also an electric stove, before things got really bad.

The summer of 1942, Melroy broke his leg while cutting hay and was unable to do his work so they had a hired man for about six months. In 1947, they sold the farm in the town of Rhine and bought a larger farm on county trunk 'N' in the town of Lyndon, Sheboygan County - near Waldo, WI. In March of 1958, Melroy was in a serious car accident that took his life. He died 15 March 1958, about 10 days after the accident. He is buried on St. Mary's Cemetery in Cascade, WI.
