Notes for Margaretha Loos: - Aug 2003 from Ethel Lock: (obits in Mrs. Bieber, Bison,Ks. collection.)

Mrs. Margaret Yost, nee Loos, was born in Norka, Russia, on the 16th day of July, 1848, and departed this life on Monday, August 9, 1920, at the age of 72 years and 24 days. She was united in marriage to Wm. Yost in 1869, and to this union twelve children were born, two of which died in infancy.

In 1876 she and her family came from Russia and settled on a farm east of Harvard, where they remained until a few years ago, at which time they located in Harvard, remaining here up to the time of her death. Sister Yost was converted when she lived in Russia and she tried to live a Godly life and work for her soul's salvation. Soon after coming to this country, she joined the Evangelical church and was a devout member up to the time of her death.

For several years she has been ailing, and a few months ago she grew worse and had much to endure. Funeral services were conducted Wednesday at two o'clock, at the Evangelical church, conducted by Rev. A. Wichman, assisted by Rev. A. Wicheit, of Clay Center, after which the remains were laid to rest in the Harvard cemetery. The pall bearers were six of her sons.

She leaves to mourn her departure her devoted husband and ten children: Geo. W. Yost, of Kansas; Mrs. Emma Kloke, of Valparaiso, Nebraska; Mrs. Lizzie Hamburger, of Harvard; J.W. Yost of Scotia, Nebraska; Mrs. Christian Hamburger, of Harvard; H. W. Yost of Harvard; C.W. Yost, of McCook, Nebraska; R.P. Yost of Harvard; Will Yost, of Colorado and Roy Yost, of Harvard. She also leaves forty-five grandchildren, two brothers, three sisters and a host of friends. - Jan 2007: Another spelling of her name - Margaretha Loos, Gertrude Margrite Loos, Margaret Loos Yost, Margaret Yost.

Wilhelm Yost was born June 1, 1847 at Norka, Russia and died July 19, 1934 at Harvard, Nebraska at the age of 87 years, 1 month and 19 days. He was united in marriage on Jan. 28, 1869 with Margaretha Loos. The family came to America in 1878 and located at Harvard where it has since resided. Father Yost lived here over 56 years. Mother died here August 9, 1920. After the death of his wife and companion Father Yost lived with children but during the last nine years, he was tenderly cared for in the home of his son, C. W. Yost.

He was reared in a christian home where he was early taught the ways of God and the ministrations of his church. Since living here he was united in membership and life in the Evangelical church where he served gladly and successfully in various officies to which he was from time to time elected. He was of a beautifully kind and sweet disposition, easly cared for, quickly satisfied, glad to live, anxious to die and be at rest. His faith in God was strong and victorious. His saviour was very precious to him.

The family was blessed with eleven children: eight sons and three daughters. One son died here in infancy. There remain to mourn his departure ten children; Geo. W. of LaCross, Kansas; John W. of Scotia; Mrs. Emma Kloke of Valparaiso; Mrs. Elizabeth Hamburger of Weatherford, Oklahoma; Wm. W. Yost of Plattsville, Colorado; Henry W., Mrs. Christina Hamburger, C.W. Yost, R.P. and Roy W.Yost all of Harvard. There are fifty-six grandchildren and twenty-seven great grandchildren. Three brothers remain; John of Harvard; Adam of Alexander, Kans. and Anton of Wamego, Kansas.

May God bless this family and may the memory of the father be an abiding presence pointing on toward God. The funeral was held on Sunday afternoon at the Zion Evangelical church with Rev. A.H. Schawb officiating. Burial was made at the Harvard cemetery.

Notes for Christina Schmer:

Mar 2008: I originally had the birth date of: 03 Jul 1899

Mar 2008: By Judy Weitzel Grand Island Independent, Grand Island, NE, April 25, 2005 (Part)

My grandmother, Christina Schmer, was also born in Norka, Russia, on July 3, 1889.

After the early death of her father, Christina, her mother and two brothers came to the United States in 1906. She often talked about being on the ship on her 17th birthday.

An uncle from Superior sent her family the money for the trip. Her fare was $75, which she had to repay.

They landed in America and went to Superior. The town confused Christina because she thought they meant Siberia -- the frigid, cold, northern Russian country where some people were sent.

Later they moved to Denver, where Christina went to work for Jewish people who taught her to cook American foods. She was quite impressed when they put butter on their beef steak.

On Sundays, she would take the street car to Globeville, Colo., to visit her mother. This was a German settlement in Denver. Although George and Christina were both from Norka, Russia, they did not know each other until they met in Denver in 1910, where George was visiting relatives.

George and his brother Louie farmed with their dad until he retired and moved to Harvard.

George and Louie "drew straws" to determine which brother would stay on the farm. George won, and he and Christina lived on the farm for more than 40 years. Their seven children -- Norman, Paul (my father), George Jr., Lawrence, Dora and Mildred -- were born and raised on the farm. One son, Heinrich, died as an infant.

During the Depression years of the 1930s, there was very little rain, only a few crops and no jobs. George Jr. and Lawrence joined the Civilian Conservation Corps (CCC) and did road construction and soil conservation work, and planted trees.

They worked on projects away from home near Nelson and Hebron. They were paid $30 per month, or about about $1 per day. They sent $25 home to their parents, and kept $5 per month for their spending money. The four brothers also worked on the Burlington Railroad at different times after fall harvest.

Grandma Christina spent many lonely hours on the farm, having left her mother to move to their Nebraska country farm home. During the first week of September, the Burlington Railroad would offer a special fare -- $9 for a round trip -- to Denver. Christina would take Dora and Mildred along to visit their grandma for a week. They would miss the first days of school, but their mother always said the first week "wouldn't count any how."

By then, her mother had remarried in Denver, so she had several stepsisters. One of them married George's brother, Henry Weitzel, and they lived in Mitchell, Neb.

George and Christina retired in Harvard. George passed away on Sept. 13, 1969, and Christina died on March 2, 1958. Both are buried in the Harvard cemetery, along with Dorothea and her husband Henry.

After serving four years in the U.S. Army, my father, Paul Weitzel, came back to Harvard to live the rest of his life where his grandparents settled after their journey from Russia. He died in 1986 and also is buried in the Harvard cemetery with his wife, Berneitta, who passed away in 1999.

Notes for George Weitzel:

My grandfather, George Weitzel, was born in Norka, Russia, on July 7, 1885.

At the age of 6, he came across the Atlantic Ocean to the United States on the ship S.S. Weimer. On Dec. 31, 1891, they landed on the East Coast and on Jan. 3, 1892, they were in Baltimore.

His family settled near Sutton and then moved to Harvard. During the early years, they lived in Kearney, where George worked in a cotton mill, where my grandfather swept floors for 15 cents a day. The family also lived in western Nebraska, where they worked in the sugar beet fields.

Mar 2008: Teri Helzer wrote to Ruth Schultz. George Weitzel

This may shed a little light on the Castle Gardens issue and Sutton, NE from our personal family genealogy records.

From "The Weitzel Family History" written by Mildred Weitzel Rath:

George Weitzel was born in Norka, Russia, and the age of six came across the Atlantic Ocean to the United States on the ship S.S. Weimar. On December 31, 1891, they landed on the East Coast at the Port of New York before the ship went on to Baltimore, Maryland, arriving on January 3, 1892 . His

family settled near Sutton (NE) and then moved to Harvard (NE). During the early years, they also lived in Kearney (NE) where George worked in a cotton mill and in western Nebraska where the family worked in the sugar beet fields.

George Weitzel bought farm land near Harvard, Clay, NE sometime before the 1910 census..

362. Anton (Anthony)6 Yost (Anna Elisabeth (Alice)5 SCHMER, Johann Heinrich4, Johann Heinrich3, Johann Georg2, Jacob1) was born 25 Jun 1874 in Norka Colony, Saratov, Russia, and died 20 Dec 1927 in Stockham, Hamilton Co, Nebraska.

She was born 01 Jul 1875 in Hock, Russia, and died 01 Jan 1948 in Reedley, California.

Notes for Anton (Anthony) Yost:

1. Martha Yost Stull states that her father was 2 when he came to the U.S. This fits with the facts that we think they came in 1876.

2. Both Anton & Elizabeth came to America in 1876 with their parents. The 2 families moved to Sutton NE, then with their parents, moved to Culbertson NE where they met & were married.

3. A note about Anton Yost:

Anton Yost & Elizabeth in the year 1894. The harvest was poor so Anton worked for his Brother-in law, H Walker, in Wyoming for the Railroad for six months. Here he was hit by a fast traveling train so hard that when they picked him up he was unconscious. Through this, he lost the use of his right arm and his eye was so severely injured that his whole face was deformed.

This story was sent to Kathy Brehm LaPella by Eli Yost.

Notes for Elisabeth (Lizzie) Yost:

Aug 2003: ELIZABETH YOST From Mrs. Bieber, Bison, Ks. obit collection sent in by Ethel Lock

Elizabeth Yost, beloved wife, mother, and grandmother, went to her crowning from her home in LaCrosse Tuesday morning, Dec. 15, at the age of 71 years, three months and 17 days.

She was born in Norka, Russia, on August 28, 1871, the oldest of eight children of Conrad and Elizabeth Yost. At the age of sixteen she accompanied her parents to America, where the family settled in Nebraska in the year 1887. She was united in marriage in 1892 to George Yost in Harvard, Nebr., where they made their home until 1899. In that year they moved to Rush county to a farm eight miles northeast of LaCrosse. For the last 25 years, however, they lived on the farm two and one-half miles northeast of LaCrosse until just three months ago when they moved into town where they could be close to the church they have served and attended so many years. it was from this home that Mother Yost departed to meet her God, surrounded by the members of her family who had long since separated to various parts of the country to build homes of their own.

The children she leaves behind are Alexander G. of Greenwood, Ark.; Paul H. of Dighton,Kan.; Theodore F. of Topeka, Kan.; Lawrence H. of LaCrosse, Kan.; Carrie Wick of Utica, Kan.; Viola Burlingame of Deer Creek, Okla.; Nelson G. of LaCrosse, Kan.; Elsie Kerbs of Larkspur, Calif.; John of Long Island, New York; Clara Schlegel of Wichita, Kan.; and Donald A. of Camp Warren, Wyo.Two infants, Juanita and Lida, preceeded their mother in death. Living brothers are Henry C. Yost, of Haxtun, Colo.; and C. C. Yost of sterling, Colo. Living sisters are Christina Helzer of Scotts Bluff, Nebr.; Kate Sack of Haxtun, Colo.; Anna Oberg of Denver, Colo.; Louise Meneley of Kansas City, Mo.; Pauline Henkel of Bayard, Nebr.; and Emma Yost of Alexander, Kan. Also missing their grandmother today are 19 grandchildren, besides a great host of friends.

Elizabeth Yost was converted in the Lutheran Reformed church of Russia early in her youth, and upon coming to America found her church home in the Evangelical church in Harvard, Nebr. Coming with her family to Rush county, she was united with the German Methodist church which at that time was located near Bison. (skipped some)

She has not lived and known that thing called fame. But she has lived and has not lived in vain. She has known the beauty of a life well spent, Of service rendered well-and sweet content. She's guided little footsteps on their way, And all through life she's known The need to pray. She loved the simple things-the common touch; To us who falter on She leaves so much. And so it is-our loss in heaven's gain For she has lived but has not lived in vain.

2. Aug 2003: from Roberta (Bobbi) Dale Mayfield - Anna had received her secular and religious education in Norka, Russia. When she was 23 years old, she came to America to the home of a sister who had preceded her here. She was a member of the Park Community Congregational Church.

Notes for Conrad Fuss:

Aug 2003: Stories from Roberta (Bobbi) Dale Mayfield -

1. "Conrad grew up in Frank, Russia, a German settlement. Conrad and Anna never met while they lived in Russia. When they came to America in the early 1880's, both families settled around Grand Island, Nebraska. There Conrad and Anna met and married and had several children.

Conrad had a family Bible and map he used to show Jean (mom) about where he was born and grew up. He had one brother left in Russia (or Germany)--no clue as to what happened to him or even what his name was. So far, we are unable to locate this big bible."

2. Aug 2003: Also From Bobbi's email. - 6/25/99 - bdale, story from Jean Cornell Dale

"Conrad and Anna had a swing on the front porch. They had a summer house in the back where they would do a lot of cooking. Before Grand Island was developed, the gypsies would come through. Conrad and Anna would send everyone to the house so the gypsies wouldn't get them."

3. Grandpa (Conrad Jr.) was born and raised in Grand Island, Nebraska. He worked at a bakery in Grand Island. Apparently anxious to get out on his own Grandpa quit high school, and went to Denver at 16 yrs of age. He wound up working at Weiss' bakery located on Tennyson Street. Naturally Grandpa's father (Conrad) wanted Grandpa to work for the Union Pacific Railroad. Grandpa and Grandma took over a bakery there that went bankrupt with previous owner. It was located across Victory Way from the bus station, in a building that was only 12 feet wide. They eventually purchased the building at 523 Yampa and successfully operated the Ideal Bakery for about 35 years.

Henry immigrated to the United States in 1907. He left through Bremen, Germany aboard the SS Main Bremen-NY, and arrived in New York on April 27, 1907 (per ship manifest.). He came with his wife Catherine Lisbeth and parents Conrad and Margaretha. They were bound for Grand Island, Nebraska to be with Henry's brother Conrad.

By November, 1908, the family (along with Henry's parents) moved to Portland Oregon. The second son, Henry, was born in 1908. The 1910 census lists Henry, Katie, John, Henry, Conrad, and Margaret. The next three daughters were born in Portland: Freda (1910), Marie (1911), and Katherine (1913).

Henry is listed on his WWI Registration Card in 1917 as a laborer working for the Portland Linseed Oil Company in Portland, Oregon. It states he has six children under the age of 12 (though it is uncertain who the sixth child is).

The 1930 census lists the family living in Fir, Skagit County, Washington. Henry is listed as a farmer along with sons John and Henry. Maria and Catherine are listed as doing housework for a private family. Sometime before 1952, Henry retired from a janitorial service.
