About Bart Laemmel

Bart was born and raised in Westchester County, N.Y., a stone’s throw from the city by train but still qualifiable country with its lush woodlands. His dad was a Wall Street market analyst, and according to Bart, “Mom was Mom. She was the glue, the enforcer. We were pretty much the Beaver Cleaver family,” Bart, the youngest of four children, laughs.

The Laemmel name is Bavarian. “It actually means, in a loose translation, ‘sheep herder,’ so we were very nomadic in that sense, or least this is what I’ve been told. I had an awesome childhood. We lived in possibly one of the best places to grow up. There was the reservoir and bass fishing,” Bart says but adds with a sly grin, “It was a great place to grow up and a better place to leave.”

After his high school graduation in 1988, Bart headed straight to Western State College (WSC, now WSCU). “From sixth grade on I knew I was going to live in Colorado,” and it wasn’t intuition—it was the visit west to his sister’s graduation from D.U. that made a believer out of him.

He graduated in 1992 with a degree in graphic design, which somehow didn’t play any part whatsoever when he went in with friends and opened the snowboard shop, Colorado Boarder.

Bart sold his partnership in the store in 1997. “Once I sold the shop, I moved to Pompano Beach, Florida.” Snowboarder boy morphed into surfer boy. “I had surfer friends down there so I learned how to surf and learned all about boats,” he says of working on the Intracoastal Waterway at a boat rental and fuel dock.

However, the snowbird was not all that keen on hot humid weather and he confesses, “I lasted six months. Once it started getting really hot in May, I was out. In a perfect world for me, I would be leaving here [Crested Butte] at the end of October and then come back the end of May. I don’t mind winter, I just don’t like it during spring,” he chuckles. “Most people say if you live long enough you get used to it but I think you just get over it.”

Back in the Butte Bart happily worked construction that summer in North Pole Basin, and he delights, “I was basically living up there. It was a heck of a lot of fun. We did the whole thing [construction job] with a chainsaw and two skill saws!”

In the summer of 1998 he met Jen Nolan and the two decided to explore other areas of Colorado together. “When I told my friend I was moving to Fort Collins for the winter he said, ‘Who is she?’” Bart states the obvious about why anyone would ever leave the Crested Butte area. While Jen was finishing her master’s degree in nutrition, Bart dove deeper into every facet of construction. “It was the technology boom and everything was going stupid crazy with the dotcom stuff and the construction went crazy,” he says, adding that he feels construction is an extension of art.

“After Jen finished school we moved to Denver. It was so cool, everything was up and coming,” he says.

“I was the superintendent for Richmond American Homes and I built 90 houses in nine months… I’m not saying we built them right. I knew we were screwing things up at an alarming rate and I was asked to take over the project of a huge subdivision. I was like… NO. I’m 28 years old and I can’t be the boss of people who have been there for five or six years when I had only been there for nine months,” he remembers.

But logic ruled and Bart laughs that it was, by far, “The easiest job I’ve ever done. They have a full system and all you have to do is follow that system. But, there was no attention to proper building detail. I learned exactly how build in a systematic way, how to plan a job from top to bottom, start to finish and I decided to go out on my own.”

Bulldog Remodeling entered into the Denver scene and there was plenty of work right in their own neighborhood of Northwest Denver. “It was an old neighborhood and I rarely commuted because there was a lot of work in the neighborhood.” Bart remembers that it was a great education in old buildings and it launched him into his admiration and quest for building greener, more efficient structures. It was one of his busiest years ever and he recalls that in 2001/02, Jen and he started two businesses (a construction company and a retail store) and they bought their store property, put an addition on their Denver house, had their daughter, Ruby, and got Albert the pooch all in a 12-month period. “It was busy,” he understates but reasons, “We were young. That’s what you do at that age, you have unbound energy.”

He was certified in the Residential Energy Services Network (RESNET) and LEED (Leadership in Energy & Environmental Design.) “It was all about durability, occupant safety and energy. To build Energy Star homes you needed somebody to certify the home, and that would be a RESNET person. I got qualified to be the inspector in 2004. What it did was open up a world of immense knowledge in the building industry that at this point, ten years later in my lifetime, I will be able to comprehend a quarter of the knowledge out there when it comes to building science.”

Motivated by parenthood and wanting the Crested Butte kind of community to raise their daughter in, they returned in early 2005. Bart started teaching building science courses in special seminars and he began doing energy audits for the Office of Resource Efficiency (ORE). “I took over for Fritz and quickly learned that I knew absolutely nothing about doing energy audits,” he laughs. “It’s one thing to get trained in it and quite another to do it.”

By 2008, the bottom had fallen out of the market and Bart decided that commuting to Denver for work was more desirable than moving. “I had a lot of clients who really loved their old houses and wanted to stay in them and remodel. That’s what kept things going. In 2010 I was offered the job with ORE to run their Energy Smart program.”

Now he’s executive director at ORE, once again honing his skills and knowledge in sustainability, “Working for ORE is right up my alley as far as the mission goes.”

In whatever free time he has, he paints or goes biking, skiing, surfing, building furniture and playing music. “I started drumming in high school and played in several local bands [Daddy Likes Men, Uncle Daddy and the Mex Pistols]. I still play drums but being in the band is like the biggest dysfunctional family ever,” he laughs, but admits that when it does click, it’s phenomenal.

Moritz Laemmel - Patent December 1, 1868

MORITZ LAEMMEL, OF BAY RIDGE-NEW YORK.

Letters Patent No. 84,632, dated December' 1, 1868.

MECHANICAL MOVEMENT

The Schedule refened to in these Letters Patent and making part ol'- the same.

Tojall 'whom it mag/'concern Be it known that I, MORITZ LAEMMEL, of Bay Ridge, county of Kings, and State of New York, have invented a new and improved Mechanical AMotion; and I do hereby declare the following to be a full, clear, and exact description thereof, which will enable those skilled in the art to make and use the same, reference being had to the accompanying drawing, forming part of this specification, in which drawing-- v Figure l represents a longitudinal vertical section of this invention.

Figure 2 is a sectional plan or top view thereof.

Similar letters indicate corresponding parts.

IIhis'invention consists in the arrangement Vof an which connect with the shaft by clutch-pulleys or other equivalent mechanism, and to which an oscillating'motion is imparted by hand or foot-power, in such a manner that by adjusting thezshaft closer to or furf ther from the peripheries of the lever-segments, the leverage of said segments can be increased or diminished as circumstances may require. The invention consists also in the arrangement of a dog and friction-strap, inV combination with a pulley mounted firmly on the shaft, and with a lever-segment mounted loosely on said shaft, in such a mauner that by turning the lever-segment in one direction the friction-strap is caused to bind on the pulley, and the shaft is compelled to turn with the lever-segment, and by turning the lever-segment in the opposite di rection, the friction-strap releases its pulley, and the shaft remains stationary. n

A represents a frarne made of wood or any other suitable material, capable of supporting the working' parts of my mechanical motion. In thefsi'de rails of this frame are two oblong slots, a, which form the bearings for the shaft B to which a rotary motion is to be imparted. N Y

,On this shaft are firmly mounted two pulleys, b, between the arms of the lever-segment C, which turn loosely on the shaft, and-which are. provided with oblong slots c, so that the shaft can be adjusted closer to or further from their peripheries.V

This purpose is eifected by means of a hand-lever, D, which is secured to a rockshaft, d, from which extend two arms e, which connect by rods f with the shaft B, so that by .turning the hand-lever, said shaft is made to slide backward or forward in theslots a of the frame, and in the slots c of the lever-segments.

Between theV arms of the lever-segments and the pulleys b, are the cheek-pieces g, which turn loosely on the shaft B, and these cheek-pieces form the bearings for the fulcrum-pins h'of the dogs E.

From these dogs extend the friction-straps t' round the pulleys b, one'end'of each strap being fastened to the inner, and the other end to the outer part of yone of the dogs, as clearly shown in iig. 1 of thedrawing,

so that when one of the dogs is turned down in the direction ofk the arrow thereon in'ig. l, its frictionstrap is caused to clutch its pulley, and the shaft B is compelledto tnrn with the -dog but when the dog is turned in` the direction opposite to said arrow, the friction-strap releases its pulley, and the shaft Bremains stationary.

Springs, j, serve to lthrow the dogsfand frictionstraps back to their'original position as soon Vas the pressure on the dogs ceases. adjustable shaft in combination with lever-segments,

The cheek-pieces g are connected at their outer ends to the leversegrnents C by vmeans of the pins h, which slide in slots in the arms of said`segmeuts-- Each of these segments connects, by. a rope or chain,

l, with a treadle or hand-leven, F, and said segments are connected together by a rope, m, which passes round a sheave, n, so that if one ofthe segments is depressed, the other rises, and m'ce tersa. By alternately ldepressing the treadles F, therefore, a continuous revolving motion is imparted to the shaft B.

This mechanical motion is intended particularly for velocipedes, and the object ofv making'the shaft B adjustable, is to enable the'operator to increase the lever age of the segments C in going uphill, and to decrease it and increase the velocity when thevelocipede is to be propelled on a level surface, and it is obvious that the adjustable shaft is applicable with any other clutch-` mechanism, such as ratchetfwheels, and pawls or dogs catching in grooved pulleys, and I therefore reserve vthe right to change this portion of my invention as circumstances may make-r desirable,

- Having thus described my invention,

What Iclaim as new, and desire to secure by Letters Patent, is-

l. Thearrangement of an adjustable shaft B, in combination with lever-segments O, operated alternately by treadles or hand-levers, and connected to the shaft B by clutch-pulleys, or other equivalentV mechanism, substantially in the `manner and for the purpose shown and described.

2. The arrangement of a dog, E, and friction-strap t', v

in combination with a pulley, b, lever-segment C, and

, shaft B, substantially as and for the purpose set forth This specification signed by me, this 13th day of October, 1868: l

The first of these is given as "3rd child". The baptismal register was checked from 1820, so that the first two children were not recorded. One of these first two children is Carl Otto, who is referred to as Christian Gotthelf Lämmel s eldest son in 1844 .

Our Commonality in Family Relations

Dear Bart,

Have already done a genealogy of your family line...

Your branch of the Laemmel Family is referred to as: "The Neustadt Lämmels in USA" -

The Lemmel tribe from Neustadt bei Chemnitz...thru your 2x great-grandfather, Gotthilf Moritz Lämmel (1822 – 1892).

My branch are known as "The Missouri Laemmels"...thru my 2x great-grandfather, Johann Friederich Wilhelm Lämmel (1832 – 1874)

We have a common ancestor but you have to go all the way back to 1415.

What i find interesting are all the similarities...

Both of us descend from the same ancestor: Merten Lemmel (1415 - 1495).

Both of our immigrant great-great-grandfathers were from Chemnitz, Saxony.

Both of our fathers were born in 1934.

Both are from a Big City: (New York, and Detroit).

Both served in the military: (Air Force, and Navy).

Both have a granddaughter in Colorado: (Your daughter, Ruby, and My daughter, Grace - she lives in Colorado Springs).

Both of our Fathers are of German descent, and both of our Mothers are of Scottish descent (Brown, and McFarland).

Both of us have a background in Construction: (You, a Building Science Analyst / Builder, and Me, a Project Mgr. for a Contractor, who worked with Builders).

Both of us have an ancestor who designed machinery: (my dad was a Draftsman and then an Architect who designed machinery for a textile company).

Have completed about ten generations, and i normally ask $100- for that, but it would only be a donation (should you decide to give). Will do more generations if you wish.

Regards,

Shane

Lemmel/Laemmel Families in the United States

H.D. Lemmel 1997, thereafter supplemented

By the year 2000 I have discovered 36 Lemmel/Laemmel immigrations to the US, the first in 1751, and most of them between 1850 and 1920. Some of them had no descendants or only daughters who did not preserve the family name; others had many sons and their families spread all over the United States. The majority lives in the states of Missouri, Illinois, Indiana, Ohio. Throughout the US there may be a total of 200 Lemmel and Laemmel addresses in the telefone books.

About the origin of the US Lemmel/Laemmel families

Families with the name "Lemmel" originate from Germany, mainly the province of Saxony, and the neighboring countries, specifically Alsace (in the northeast of France), Switzerland, Austria, Bohemia, and some more. The spelling of the name is varying: "Lemmel", "Lemel", "Lämmel", "Laemmel". These are different variants of the same name. Of all these variants I have a fairly complete archive for the seven centuries from 1300 to present.

Until the 19th century the spelling of names was not fixed. There are cases where the one of two brothers spelt his name "Lemmel", and the other "Lämmel". When a "Lämmel" went to America where the ä-Umlaut is not known, his name was recorded either as "Laemmel" or as "Lammel". The latter form, "Lammel", makes family research a bit difficult, because the fairly frequent German family name "Lammel" is a separate name and not a variant of "Lemmel/Lämmel".

Most of the Lemmel / Lämmel / Laemmel families originate from the same root. This could be proven for many branches; for some other branches where the proof was not yet possible, the common root appears to be most likely. The first known ancestor is "Chunrad Lembelin" who lived as a merchant in Nuremberg (Nürnberg in Franconia in Northern Bavaria) around 1300. In the next generations the name changed to "Lemlin", "Lemlein", "Lemmel" and a few more variants.

Due to lack of written documents it is not possible to trace back the family even further, but the name "Lembelin" is documented in Nuremberg already around the year 1150, more than 800 years ago.

Not related to the Nuremberg Lemmels are Lemmel and Lämmel families of Jewish origin, where the same family name emerged independently in different families not related to each other. But in the one or other case it might be as well that a Jewish Lemmel family originated from a Christian Lemmel who married a Jewish wife.

The Lemmels and Laemmels in the United States may be divided into

four groups:

1. coming from Alsace near the French-German border.

2. coming from Saxony.

3. coming from various parts of Germany.

4. of Jewish origin.

In all of these four groups the spellings Lemmel, Laemmel or, sometimes, Lammel are used in USA. It is the Alsace Lemmels who have by far the largest number of descendents in the United States.
