Cemetary, Crivitz, Marinette Co, WI. Fred
moved in with Cecelia at
841 Hawkridge Retirement home. As
he never married, he had just rented a room all his life.
Up until his death in 1980 they both enjoyed raising a beautiful garden. He was especially proud of his raspberry patch(completely
enclosed in netting to keep the birds out).
The priest at Fred's funeral mass told of Fred proudly bringing a quart
of raspberries to the rectory just a couple of weeks before his death.
Fred enjoyed Cecelia's 27 grandchildren as they came along(up until they
were 7 or 8 months old). When they
would sit on his lap- he would entertain them with his pocket watch.
When Fred would watch television, he would get up and turn the volume
down when the commercials came on. He
never had access to the remote control.

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... On June 7 Friday we moved into our first new home on the lake road in
Grover which is now the Gernell Farm. I

Our first night in our own little home we were surprised with a shivorey

We

While my husband is a carpenter and at work I take the best of care of
things at home. Their is no reason
why we should not be happy we will for us Two."
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.

She also worked at a bag factory in Marinette and a basket factory in
south Milwaukee. After she
was married Cecelia and Carl bought the Albert Cain farm across from Henry
Miller farm on County "W". Carl
helped Charles Wiedemeier build Gorman's house and did other carpenter work.
Cecilia and Carl farmed there until 1963, at which time the farm was
taken over by their son Donald. For
a time they lived in a trailer house on the farm, and come winter they moved to
a house near the Grove(Equity) on Highway 64.
After Carl’s death in 1964, Cecelia moved to 841 Hockridge St. in
Marinette, WI., at which time Fred Wiedemeier moved in with her.
(Carl had told Cecelia that he hoped he would die first, then she could
make a home for Fred.) Cecelia did
some baby-sitting, housekeeping and cooking for Our Lady of Lourdes parish
rectory, was active with the Ladies’ Society.
Besides enjoying her and Fred’s garden, she enjoyed may pinochle games
with the many friends she had acquired. In
1984 Cecelia sold her home and moved inot an apartment(for the elderly) at 1545
Ludington, Marinette. Some of her
friends had already moved there, and she found more pinochle card players.
Se lived there for eight years: during whcih time many
evenings(6:30-9:30p.m.) were spent playing pinochle.
