ANDREAS UTERMÖHLEN DESCENDANTS

Deutsch

    I would like to begin this account by thanking my cousin Annie Laurie (Jorn) Jochums, who in 1986 sent me the German passport of her grandmother, Dorette (Utermöhlen) Jorn, issued in 1877 at the time of her emigration to America.  Dorette was the sister of my great grandfather, George Utermohlen, and the passport named the village of their birth, Bollensen.  Without that information, I might never have been able to discover the German origins of our family.

 

    The earliest ancestor I have been able to identify is Andreas Utermöhlen.  His identified descendants follow (for the most part only the direct line has been traced in the early generations and other children may be recorded in the records).  The church registers in Barlissen begin in the year 1681, but the registries of death do not start until 1719 and there is a gap in the marriage records between 1688 and 1700.  Some of the Barlissen entries can be found in the church books of Jühnde and Atzenhausen.

 

    The following gedcom file includes many of the individuals mentioned below. 

 

    1.    Andreas1 Utermöhlen, a bachelor from Volckerode (meaning he was born there, not necessarily that he was then living there; Volkerode is a village about 4-5 kilometers northeast of Barlissen), married at Barlissen on 26 November 1665, Anna Reinhard (Barlissen m., p. 55).  She was born at Barlissen on 22 January 1648, daughter of Heinrich Reinhard and Margaretha (Werner) Reinhard (Barlissen b., p. 8).  Andreas's death does not appear in the Barllissen records, but he died prior to 26 November 1728, when the death of Anna, widow of the late Andreas Utermöhlen, was recorded.  She died on 25 November of severe nose bleeding and diminishing energy, at the age of 80, and was buried on 29 November. (Barlissen d., p. 6).

William came to the U.S. about 1870.  He was married on 9 March 1879 to Adelaide Lewis in Atchison County, Missouri.  She was born in March 1855 in Missouri, the daughter of Taylor Lewis.  William was a farmer.  In 1880, William and Adelaide resided in Clark township in Atchison County.  By 1881, they had moved to Kansas and in 1900 and 1910 they were in Richland township, Jewell County, Kansas.

   16.    Dorette Georgina Wilhelmina7 Utermöhlen, known as Dorette or Dorothea (August6, Johann Jobst5, Jürgen Christoph4, Johann3, Hans Heinrich2, Andreas1), was born on 21 May 1857 at Bollensen, a daughter of Johann Wilhelm August Utermöhlen and Hanne Melusine Friederike Schröder, and died on 27 December 1906 near Norcatur, Decatur County, Kansas.  She married George Christian Jorn, half-brother of Dorette's brother-in-law, Henry Jorn, on 4 March 1878 in Benton township, Atchison County, Missouri.  He was born on 7 March 1856 at Wiensen, Hannover, Germany, a son of [Johann] Christian Ludwig Jorn and Melasina Siebrecht, and died on 27 October 1925 at Hastings, Adams County, Nebraska.  After Dorette's death, George married second, on 7 April 1909 at Norcatur, Mary Olive Reager.  She was born on 16 July 1862, a daughter of Isaac Reager, and died on 15 October 1923 at Rochester, Minnesota.  George married, third, on 27 January 1925 at San Diego, California, Mary Jane Smith.  She died on 29 November 1939 in Iowa.

         Dorette was baptized in the local Evangelical Lutheran church when she was twenty days old and confirmed at the age of 14.  In April 1877, Dorette obtained a passport allowing her to emigrate from Germany and on 9 May 1877, a Dorothea Utermohlen of Hannover arrived at Balti­more on the "Nurnberg.She arrived at Corning, Holt County, Missouri, the home of her sister Louise and Henry Jorn, on 21 May 1877, her twentieth birthdayGeorge emigrated in the summer of 1873, coming first to New York and travelling to Corning, Missouri to the home of Henry, where he arrived on 27 June.

     George and Dorette must have soon moved to Clark township in Atchison County, Missouri, where they were living in 1880, because Louise (Jorn) Gardner says they lived there about three years and removed to Richardson County, Nebraska in January 1881.

     In February 1893, they moved to Lincoln township, Decatur County, Kansas, 1 1/2 miles north of Norcatur.  Their daughter Louise has described their farm:

 Their first home here was a 1 room sod house with a corru­gated tin roof ‑‑ partially covered with sod.  My father had come out in early Spring bringing some live stock ‑‑ team of (mules) or horses ‑ some cows/cattle, chickens ‑ plows, wagon & hand tools ‑ such as axe, hoes, corn planter & larger pieces of furniture ‑‑ all shipped out together in a boxcar.  He repaired the house, which by the way ‑ had two windows, one on each side E & W, & one door ‑ and was located on a rise of flat land ‑ prairie ‑ a short distance from a small creek.  There was a dug well on the place ‑ a bank stable ‑ dugout they were called ‑ as they were dug back into a bank.  No trees ‑ nothing but miles of prairie ‑ there was a grove of trees two miles northeast on a farm which had been planted as a timber claim.  This was land (160a) a settler could obtain from the gov't by planting a certain number of acres to trees.  Like the homesteader he must build improvements ‑ house, stable etc. and convert so much acreage into farm land and live on the land a certain number of years.  Then if he wanted to sell the land he could do so. 

 My father bought his land from a man named Murdock who      had homesteaded it. . . .  Several weeks after his arrival, father sent for my mother and their family ‑‑ 4 girls ages 10 ‑ 6 ‑ 3 1/2 ‑ and 1.  During the summer, father's brother Chris ‑ a carpenter & cabinet maker ‑ came out from Nebraska and he & father built a 2 room frame house which was used for sleeping ‑‑ the sod house still being used for a kitchen & dining.  Stables & sheds were built ‑ more land plowed for farming.  A garden was planted ‑ a few cottonwood trees set out ‑ [and] by the well [& over] near the stable & water troughs. 

In 1901, my parents decided it was time to build a permanet house ‑‑ crops had been [?] & live stock had increased.  There had been set backs, of course, but with the family growing up ‑ and a son and a daughter having arrived ‑ a larger house was necessary.  Uncle Chris again come out with plans for the new house.  The 2 room frame was converted into a large kitchen and pantry ‑ (and) a large dining room ‑ parlor ‑ parlor bedroom ‑ another bed room off the dining room ‑ 2 bed rooms up stairs ‑ closets were added to the original frame house (now converted into a large kitchen and pantry).  Uncle Chris stayed until the building was well under way and a local carpenter & my father when he could take time from farming did the rest of the work.  By winter it was roofed ‑ all enclosed and the dining room & the bed room down stairs finished.  The finishing on the parlor & bed room & outside paint had to wait until Spring.  The family still lived in the 2 room frame but the kitchen had been moved to another frame building ‑‑ later to become the tool shed & storage.

 In 1902 ‑ Jan. 18 ‑ another son joined the family and in             Dec. 1906 mother passed away after a short illness [dropsy].  She had been a real pioneer ‑ a devoted wife and mother and a devout Christian, a friend to all.  The older girls married in the summer of 1908 and father and we younger children were running the farm.  My youngest sister Ella was now 16, Chris 14, George 7 and I was 10.  It was a heavy load for Ella to take care of the home and younger children and in April 1909 my father was married a second time to Mary Olive Reager (no children). 

 Time passed ‑ Ella married ‑ Chris went away to school and later married ‑ leaving George & I at home.  Father decided it was time to move to town about 1919‑20 ‑ a house was purchased ‑ farm sale held and live stock ‑ machinery etc. sold.  It was hard to leave the place where so many joys and sorrows too ‑ and hard work had gone into the building of a home.  But he kept the land & rented it to the older daughter Mamie & her husband.  He could at least go out to the farm & help out at harvest time etc. 

 Mother Ollie passed away Oct. 15, 1923.  Your father & I were married shortly after and moved to K.C.  George was working in Oberlin so father was left alone.  In the fall of 1924 father went to Calif. to spend the winter ‑ Mother Ollie's cousin Mary Jane Smith was living there and in 1925 ‑ Jan. 27 ‑ they were married in San Diego.  They came back to Norcatur in March 25 ‑ and shortly there after fathers health began to fail ‑ all during the summer he was  ill ‑ and finally he was persuaded to go to Has­tings, Nebr. for treatment.  He & mother Jane stayed with Ella's & Newton while there.  He improved and was able to be up & about and planned to visit us in the fall and then spend the winter in Calif.  But it was not to be ‑ father died suddenly of heart failure Oct. 27, 1925.  Mother Jane later returned to Calif. ‑ coming to visit the family occasinally.  On a visit to Iowa ‑ where she had relatives living, she died (Nov. 29, 1939) following an appendectomy.  The farm & house in [town] were later sold.
