               Charles Antony WIEDEMEIER, son of Albert and Mary (SCHILDER) WIEDEMEIER, born in Lincoln, Lancaster, Nebraska, 14 Apr. 1902, died in Marinette, Marinette Co, WI, 27 Jun. 1976, buried in Forest Homes Cem, Marinette, WI; married Peshtigo, Marinette Co, WI, 6 Jun. 1929, Katherine Marian WEICHEL, daughter of John and Katherine (MANNING) WEICHEL, born in Mariafolde, Nagyteremia, Torontal, Hungary, 28 Nov. 1905, christened 28 Nov. 1905, died in Menominee, Menominee, WI, 6 Jul. 1990, buried in Forest Homes Cem, Marinette, WI. 

            Charles Antony Wiedemeier, son of Albert and Mary (Schilder)Wiedemeier, born Lincoln, Lancaster, Nebraska, 14 Apr. 1902,  He came to Loomis, Wisconsin as a child.  He lived there on a farm. 

  Charles apparently never dated anyone before Katherine.   She and her sisters had gone to a church picnic and she met him there for the first time.  He had given her a piece of his watermelon.  That was the beginning for them.

  

Katherine Marian Weichel, daughter of John and Katherine (Manning) Weichel was born in  Mariafolde, Nagyteremia, Torontal, Hungary, 28 Nov.1905. John Weichel was not born in Teremia Mare.  His family walked from their previous village to teremia mare because of some disaster that had occurred.  He had 3 younger sisters.  One whose name was Regina Grones who lived and died in Rottweil, Germany somewhere in the blackforest.  John worked for a rich farmer taking care of horses.  His father was a weaver.  Katherine Manning's father was a taylor.  She had 3 sisters- Susan was the oldest, next was Katherine and then Rose.  She had 2 brothers.  She was a cleaning maid to a rich farmer there.  Katherine Manning was born in Teremia Mare.  Her 2 brothers Mike and John went to America first. It is not clear if her sisters came to this country.  John and Katherine went through Ellis island then to Chicago, Cook County, Illinois where Mike and John lived.  Mike was a milk wagon driver and got John a job taking care of the horses for his company.  The whole time John was looking around for property.  They moved to one spot and then to the current farm in Peshtigo.  They did not bring any relatives over from across the ocean.  except for perhaps Mike and Johns wives.  Most if not all family members in Romania have since moved back to Germany.  There is still a Catholic church operating  in Marienfeldt today.  Also an adjacent school which had many cousins signatures still carved in the desks.  Katherine Weichel was the oldest of 4 daughters.  All the kids took a bath in the same tub of water. First the little ones.  Lines were set up over the stove. Underware was worn in the morning. The mother patched up all clothes.  There were patches on top of patches.  Lumbermans boots were worn in the winter with long underware. They would get an apple or an orange for Christmas.  John fed horses and cleaned barns for milk runs. They lived in a 2 story building.  The they went from Chicago to Mesgigan.  They had a very poor farm there and could not pay for it.  Many times they went to Jewish stores because they spoke german. None of the family could  understand english when they got here.  John Weichel went to the 3rd grade but could not read so his wife taught him.  Katie Manning learned to read and speak english by having her daughters who went to school read the newspaper,Eagle Star, to her while she did the laundry. She boiled the clothes every morning to clean them. In the summer time they went barefoot. When the girls were thirteen or 14 they were told if some one comes in the yard girls go into the house and put shoes on.  The family spoke high german and the Scwovisch language. When she was 16 she lived with rich family.  She had to leave the 8th grade.  A man named Tom Curie married a high school teacher and Katherine worked for them for $6 a week.  These were good wages.  She would walk home for weekends and do the dishes and clean the floor.  The woman of the house helped Katherine finished the 8th grade.  She worked their for 2 years.  She also studied other books.  The Weichel sisters both went to town to do house work and got as high as 20 dollars a week.  During this time she went out with Charles. During this time John asked the insurance agent, Mr. Tunn, to bring the price  down from 3000 to 1000 dollars. Then an unfortunate event occured. A colt knocked a lantern down into the hay.  John discovered a fire in the morning.  The barn and cattle burned on Nov 8 1924.  They then had no income. The girls then supported the parents.  The Weichels had several boys but were born still born.  They probably had a total 8 or 9 children. The father was kind and quiet.  Eventually she moved to Loomis.

  She attended Loomis grade school. She spoke English with a wonderful Hungarian accent.  She also spoke German and Hungarian.             She knew Charles when she was 18 to  20 years old.  She lived 15 miles apart from Wiedemeier farm.  The Wiedemeier boys picked up Katherine and Elizabeth and went to square dances.   The following is in Katherine's words "  

            Charles and Katherine Weichel (were) Sweet Hearts since 1925 New years day.    I(Katherine) was 19 years old.  Charles was 23 years old. We met at Lake NoguBay in (the) year 1925 month of August 20 on (a)Sunday afternoon.  We have kept steady company with each other(for) 4 years and 6 months.  We have always been real Sweet Hearts and always will be.  Now we were married on June 6 year 1929(Peshtigo, Marinette County, Wisconsin).  We were engaged on the 9 of June 1928, just 3 days less than 1 year when we were then married.  My first trip was with my Sweet Heart to Milwaukee in (the) year 1927. On Labor Day went to the State fair and to visit Charles relations we went to the Theaters, Churches, and Restaurants.Visited Lake Michigan and took picture we had a real swell time we motored in Charles new Ford Roadster stayed 4 days...

 Charles worked in the slaughter houses in Milwaukee, and Katherine stayed home the first few years of their marriage. Later she was a nurse at several hospitals.  Charles taught himself how to build, beginning with barn building, with the help of his rumored "bootlegging friends".  Many people were "bootleggers" back in that time.  It was rough.  It was the Great Depression and in the 30's  people survived the best they could to feed their family.  Charles, his family and Katherine's family were never involved in "bootlegging".  Charles and Katherine were very strict about drinking and smoking.  They drank only once in awhile and not in excess.  However, they didn't impose their beliefs on their neighbors and friends in that respect.

            Charles's family didn't have much extra money but never lacked the necessities.  He built a nice 2 story 3 bedroom home.  He also added a garage, workshop and shed.  Donna had her own room and Barton and John shared a bedroom.  The parents had their own bedroom downstairs. They had a yard to play in with a swing and a fishpond.  Running water was installed in the early 1950s.  Before that they had a hand pump from the well next to the house.  Early on Charles had built a toilet with a pan of water in it.  Every morning Barton emptied this 5 gallon bucket in the outhouse by the garage outside.  It was better than what the neighbors did.  Later in the 1950s a modern toilet was installed.

            Katherine kept a large garden. She seemed to spend 4-5 hours a day in the garden during her whole life.  Even as an old woman she still managed to work in the garden.  She grew and canned all her vegetables and fruits.  This was to preserve it for winter food.  She probably canned about 500 jars of vegetables a year.  There was a special room in the upstairs with a door to it called the "fruit room".  They had an ice-box in those days and the iceman came once a week.  The milk man delivered milk(4-5 quarts) every other day with his truck.  She was an excellent cook and loved to cook Hungarian style recipes such as rabbit goulash, struddle and others.  She did all cooking from scratch including candy, root-beer, breads, ice-cream, sausage.  She also could cook wild game so well that you could not tell it was wild.  She cooked and served 3 meals a day 7 days a week to her family and was punctual to the second. Breakfast at 7 am, dinner at 12 noon and supper at 5:30pm.

She was very skilled at knitting, crocked, and as a sewer/taylor.  She also made hats out of colored feathers.  She made all of her children's clothes and all of her own.  They only bought Charles's work clothes and church suits.  She took complete care of the house including painting walls, fix-it-man activities, making bedspreads.  She also did most of the landscaping outside with flowers, trees etc. The family would go berry picking.  Charles hunted animals for food.  Mostly little animals like rabbits.  He never hunted deer much. About once a month she would put together boxes of clothing that were no longer needed and any excess food and take it out to Charles's poor brothers out on their farms.  His brothers seem to have a hard time on their farms plus they had very large families.  They always shared the best they could.  Once in awhile when his brothers had good hunts  they also would share some of the wild game with Charles's family.

            They did all their washing of clothes every Monday in an electric machine with the hand wringer on it, and hung them outside on clothes lines in the yard. Donna was always by her mother's side when she did these chores.  In those days there was a big distinction between boys and girls in those days.  The girls belonged to the mother and the boys to their father.  The cooking was done on a wood stove.  Every morning they used coal.  John's job was to bring 2 buckets of coal and an armload of wood for the fire.  Cut the grass.  Donna washed dishes and dusted.  Wash up took place in the kitchen.  Charles shaved in the kitchen.  The gas stove had to be pumped  up to make it work.  Charles family was the last ones to get running water in the neighborhood.  They were the only ones with their own well.  This made them self sufficient.  Bathing was done once a week on Saturday in the kitchen.  John was the first to take a bath followed by his brother and sister. The house was gradually built.  The walls up stairs dividing the rooms were put in during the years.   The heater, a Heatrola was in the living room.  It was replaced with a furnace.  One time the fire got going so good and hot the chimney walls caught fire.  The fire department came.

            Charles was an independent contractor, architect, and builder.  He always worked 6 days a week,  except when it got too cold; usually below zero in the months of Jan and Feb.  In times like this he would set up work he could do in the garage like cabinets, and finishing interior work on people's homes.  He taught himself architecture.  He was very good.  He designed everything from bottom up, plans, renderings and then built them. His major customers were doctors, lawyers, and wealthy people in town.  These people enjoyed his houses and work.  Charles admired the architect Frank Lloyd Wright's designs.  He built homes in the Marinette, Fondulac and Greenbay areas.  He built the first split-level home ever for a doctor.  He got the idea from a Sunday newspaper that he had seen featuring picture of  Frank Lloyd Wright homes.  He did not go much farther than 8th grade but was very creative and talented.  He had a desk in the living room in the corner with a telephone and a big drawing pad, and in the drawers were instruments and his "time-book" where he would meticulously keep track of how many hours he spent working at whose house on what day.  He worked mostly alone. He got paid $1 per hour in the 1940s.  Later on Barton became a partner and John worked as a teenager occasionally.   Once in a while he would employ one of his brothers when they needed money.  Art was one who seemed to work alot with Charles on those occasions. He worked in the shipyards during World War II building barges.

            The whole family went to Sunday Mass every week.  Afterwards they went to visit the grandparents.  They alternated which parents they would visit each Sunday.  Charles had a sail boat. They sometimes would go out and fish in it.  Charles was a scoutmaster and also took the BoyScouts out in the boat.  One day a boy fell in the water and went under.  Charles went after him repeatedly diving and returning to the surface in an attempt to find the boy.  Sadly,  the boy was never found.  Charles was affected by the experience for the rest of his life.  He sold the boat and never sailed again. Some say he was more serious about religion after the experience.    He felt the need to defend his religion to anyone who said anything negative about his church.  He made sure his children attended early morning mass everyday through their enrollment to parochial school until they were 17 or so.   The family said rosary kneeling down together every night after supper in the living room.  This family devotion lasted approximately 20 minutes.  Reverence was important during this time so the children were knocked to the floor if they fooled around. He eventually got a 5-6 foot statue of the virgin Mary from Church and erected it in the yard.  The house had holy-water fountains by the kitchen door.(This was a  Catholic practice where a person would dip his fingers into the holy water and make the sign of the cross.)

            Charles was a real cowboy with a rope.  He could twirl that rope and his kids and eventually his grandkids would get under it while he was making circles with it.  He could do it any which way.  He played the harmonica very well. He taught himself.  He played the piano pretty good with 2 fingers.  When the kids were young he used to sit on the end of the bed and teach them all kinds of German songs  and all about counting money in German.  He was a quiet man.  It seemed that his closest friends were his brothers.  He was well respected and trusted in town.  He always voted with his wife.

            The radio they had was used only for "Andy and McGee" and "Henry Auldrich".  Every noon Katherine listened to a show that told who had a baby born that day playing the song Brahams Lullaby for background music.  They got a television in 1957.    Katherine wasn't a book reader or a deep thinker.  She had been trained in certain ways and just followed that path.  Charles would read the newspaper and Catholic literature like the Catholic Register. The family had a croquet set, baseball, football, a big brick barbecue Charles built outside, a swing, and a big cement fish pond. 

            Charles was fascinated by the American Indian.  He collected arrow heads from the fields.  There used to be a large number of them.  He had an indian chief center piece in his living room.  He carved it himself.  He also carved large detailed life like crucifixes for each of his children.  He also carved things from little peach-pit faces to great big large things. At Christmas time they had no extra spending money so he would make wooden toys.  He made a cradle for Donna's dolls to rock them in.  He also made gifts and toys for his grandchildren.  John Robert Wiedemeier remembers a wooden jigsaw puzzle that was made for him as a child as well as several stools, toychest, peg set desk and a mini build-it-yourself-house kit.

            An interesting insight into Charles childraising methods was how he used the high standards of his faith as a tool for raising his children.  In some cases, this went to far.   John, the youngest son, has his history recorded later in this book.  The adopted daughter, Jeanine, her original name was Angeline Skabinski, was the daughter of Charles's brother Henry's second wife, Helen.  Helen had two daughters before marrying  Henry after his wife Elizabeth died.  Helen had a hard life and brought her two daughters into a new family  when she married Henry. Henry got along with Sophie.  However, he and Angela did not get along at all.  Due to this poor relationship,  Henry wanted to solve this problem between him and  Angela.  Apparently,  Angela had told her school teachers she wanted to be a nun.  Somehow that information was received by one of the priests in Charles's  church, and they told him he should adopt her and pay her way in the convent so that she could become a nun.  He thought that was the greatest thing a parent could do in those days so he did it.  Henry was delighted  that Charles would do this to solve his problems.  Henry was happy that she was still in the family and not with strangers.  Charles and Katherine adopted her as their daughter and did pay her way when she finished 8th grade, to go into the convent.  She served for 25 years until she quit.  When Barton finished the 8th grade his parents like many other parents at the time who had teenage sons wanted their son to become a priest.  Barton didn't want to do this so Charles made him go.  He was sent off to Mt. Calvary to St. Lawrence Seminary where he would live all year round studying to become a priest.  Barton became known as the “Barbarian” by his peers at the seminary.   He earned this title by spending any free time he had hunting, snaring rabbits and rough play rather than studying for the priesthood.  As part of the routine, he would send his laundry home in a steel laundry box.  In addition to clothes he would often put canned rabbit in the laundry box.  These rabbits were caught in the fields close to the seminary were they were in great abundance.  This he thought would help his parents with some of the seminary costs.  He was there a few years. At Christmas time, the only time the family saw him during the year, he always begged to come home.  He said he hated it there.  Charles, of course, longing for his son to be a priest would not let him come home.  As time went by  Barton showed by his conduct that his interests were different than the seminary’s interests.  Finally, Barton was discharged from the seminary and sent home.  His brother John seemed to think that Barton had planned his escape from the seminary very carefully.  John remembers that when Barton finally arrived home he brought with him a large mysterious steamer chest.  The chest was full of rifles, bayonettes, and muskets.  Most of which were antiques.  All of these weapons were sold at garage sales by his mother in later years.  Barton was said to have changed after his experience in the seminary. His parents enrolled him in the St. Norberts Catholic High School.   He did not get along with his parents very well for the rest of his teenage years.  The years after were very  tough and led to trouble.  Fortunately, he headed to California with his new family to start his life over.  He eventually became very successful in his career.

            Donna said that when she became a teenager she started putting up on her bedroom wall pictures of  famous movie stars like Rock Hudson, Maryln Monroe of the 1950s.  Charles disapproved and ripped them all down and punished Donna physically.  If she wore levi jeans she got beat and the jeans were destroyed.  When she was 14  her parents said she could date at 16.  When she was 16 they said wait until age 18.  They never let her go to any Catholic school dances.  She was even denied her high school prom.  This made Donna rebel.  Often she and Barton would escape by sneaking out the window at night and meet with their friends to drink beer. Charles wanted Donna to be a nun.  When Donna graduated from High School she left home for good.  This caused a rift between her and her parents which lasted for decades.

            Charles followed the teachings of the Catholic church strictly.   He was a member of Our Lady of Lourdes Church, the Holy Name Society, Catholic Order of Foresters and the Knights of Columbus.   Near the end while he was bedridden, Katherine took care of him.  When he couldn't go to morning church mass, the priest came to the house and said prayers with him at the house and gave him holy communion there.  He died Marinette, Marinette Co, WI on 27 Jun. 1976 and was buried in the Forest Homes Cem, Marinette, WI.  Katherine worked for the former M & M Hospital, the former St.Joseph Lloyd Hospital, the former Marinette General and various nursing homes in the area.  She was a member of the Holy Family Catholic Church.  She was a member of the Altar Society of St.Anthony's Catholic Church and The Garden Club.   She died in Menominee, Menominee, WI on 6 Jul. 1990 and was buried next to her husband in the Forest Homes Cemetary, Marinette, WI.
