SECOND GENERATION

2. Joseph HUBER was born on Mar 8 1782 in Weildorf , Hohenzollern, Gemany. He died on Aug 9 1851 in Weildorf, Hohenzollern, Germany. Credit Mary Ann Huber:

In the early 1830's, four of Joseph and Magdalena Kirn Huber's 10 children left Weildorf, Hohenzollern, Germany, and come to America. Weildorf is a small farming village located near Haigerloch, 30 miles southwest of Stuttgart. Johannes and Phillip were two of those four children. We found passenger ship records for a Lucanus Huber, but we have not determined that this is the brother to Phillip and Johannes. Therefore, we do not know the names of the other brothers or what became of Johannes after he arrived.

He was married to Magdalena KIRN (daughter of Casper KIRN and Agatha MATTERIN) about 1804 in Germany. Magdalena KIRN was born about 1785 in Germany. She died on Sep 9 1851 in Weildorf , Hohenzollern, Gemany.

THIRD GENERATION

4. Phillip Benitus HUBER was born on Aug 23 1807 in Weildorf , Hohenzollern, Gemany. He died on Aug 3 1882 in Cemetery, Dover, Indiana. Credit Mary Ann Huber:

Phillip Huber was educated in the common schools of Germany and later learned cabinet making. Phillip, one of four brothers, immigrated to America as a young man and upon settling in Philadelphia, he continued in that trade. His fiancee, Mary Hurn also for Weildorf, followed him in 1834 and they married. The couple moved to Dearborn County, Indiana, where Phillip established a blacksmith and cabinet shop. Since the demand for cabinets and furniture was small, he also made doors, blinds, sashes, and coffins. Later, he enlarged his shop to make farm wagons and such. Phillip married the second time to a woman named Anna, who died October 18, 1889, and is buried in the same Catholic cemetery as the first wife. Phillip died of apoplexy on August 3, 1882, and is buried in the Protestant Cemetery in Dover, IN.

From Edward Huber's Obituary from the Marion Daily Star, 27 August 1904, we have this:

Phillip Huber was on of four brothers to come to America. Phillip, being a cabinet maker, and after following his trade for a time, in the East, located on a farm near Kelso, Indiana.

He was married to Mary HURM on Apr 11 1835 in Philadelphia, Pennsylvania. Mary HURM was born on Jun 25 1806 in Weildorf Bei Haigerloch, (Hohenzollern), Gemany. She died on Jul 23 1846 in St John's Cemetery, Dover, Indiana.

Phillip Benitus HUBER and Mary HURM had the following children:

+13 i. Albert HUBER.

+14 ii. Edward HUBER.

+15 iii. Amelia HUBER.

16 iv. John HUBER was born on Oct 10 1840 in Dover, Dearborn Co., Indiana. He died on Feb 12 1863 in Heap Ballards Farm, Mississippi. Credit Casey Huber for providing this information:

John never married. According to his muster card, he enlisted on 15 October 1862 for nine months as a volunteer and served with Company D, 83rd Regiment of Indiana. His commanding officer was Captain John Lemuel. At the National Archives in Washington D.C., Casey was able to put together John's last five months of life.

On 5 December 1862, John Huber and his Company boarded a train in Indianapolis and started on a 316 mile ride to Cairo, Illinois. On 9 December 1862, they boarded a transport headed for Memphis, Tennessee. Around this same time, General Grant, head of the Union Army in the West, was planning his first attempt at taking Vicksburg, Mississippi. Vicksburg, located atop a bluff overlooking the Mississippi river, controlled the river and was considered one of the most important gateways to the south. Grant planned a two-prong attack. He would attack from the northeast while General Sherman would come in from the north. Grant ordered Sherman to go to Memphis and get the three newly arrived divisions of "Illinois and Indiana farm boys." This group became the Army of Tennessee.

On 20 December 1862, Company D boarded the Steamer Sioux City. After travelling 300 miles down the Mississippi River, they turned east and headed up the Yahzoo River to a point about 12 north of Vicksburg. Here they disembarked and Johnson's Farm in the area of the Chickasaw Bluffs. On 29 December 1862, the Union forces engaged the Confederates. Since the area was swampy and unfamiliar to the Union forces, there was a lot of confusion and misdirection. In addition, Grant's forces were held up because of the havoc that the Confederate General's Forrest and Van Dorn were wreaking on the Union supply lines further north. The Confederate forces held off the advances of the Union Soldiers and inflicted heavy casualties. The Union lost 1776 killed or wounded to the South's 207. In John's company, Private John Grove was killed and Sergeant Henry Hellsmen, Privates Henry Closterman and John Ferts were wounded. The following day, Sherman decided to withdraw because a fog was impeding the naval support on the river and he feared Confederate replacements would make matters worse. This was the first of several attempts on Vicksburg before it fell in July of 1863.

Sherman, who was angry about this botched attempt, wanted to balance his defeat with a victory. A Confederate garrison of some 5,000 men at the Post of Arkansas (also known as Fort Hindman) had been harassing Union supply operations on the Mississippi River. Sherman convinced General McClernand and Admiral Porter to attack the fort. On 2 January 1863, John's company re-embarked at Johnson's Farm landing. They disembarked on 10 January. They were accompanied by three iron clad ships, one of which was the Cincinnati. On 11 January 1863, they engaged the fort. Because of the overwhelming Union forces and the pounding from the iron clads, Fort Hindman surrendered that day. The casualty list, however, again favored the South. The north had 1,063 killed of wounded while the south had only 109. The south, however, surrendered the remaining 5,000 men and a new regiment that had just came in. John's company suffered no casualties in this battle.

On 14 January 1863, John's company re-embarked and arrived at Youngs Point, Louisiana, on 22 January. Youngs Point is across the river from Vicksburg. Here, according to Captain Lemuel's records, Company D performed fatigue duty until May or June. They then moved to Walnut Hill, Mississippi. It was during the stay at Youngs Point that John Huber contracted his illness. His company muster roll states that he died 12 February 1863 of an unknown disease. He was buried at Heap Bal lards Farm in Louisiana. He attained the rank of Corporal in the Infantry.

John was described as 22 years old, dark complexion, brown eyes and brown hair, and 5' 6" tall.

Company D saw no more action after the engagement at Fort Hindman (Post of Arkansas). They remained at Walnut Hills, just 18 miles north of Vicksburg, until they were discharged on 8 August 1863.

FOURTH GENERATION

13. Albert HUBER was born on Mar 10 1836 in Kelso, (Dover) Dearborn Co, Indiana. He died on May 14 1894 in Dover, Dearborn Co., Indiana. Credit Mary Ann Huber:

Albert, the oldest of the children was destined to be a farmer. In their childhood years, Albert and Edward did most of the farming. When Edward became 13 years of age, he began to work with his father in the shop while Albert continued to farm. Albert married Louisa Senger, who was born in Bavaria, Germany. They had five children, four of whom are buried in Dover, IN, with their parents. Their son, John, moved to Marion, Ohio, in 1898. Albert spent his entire life farming the land his father had purchased in 1834. In fact, he died on 14 May 1894 while plowing corn after having been a pallbearer for a friend earlier in the day. His hands were still on the plow when he was found later in the day by his son, John.

Louisa SENGER was born in 1834 in Bavaria, Germany. She died in 1906 in Dover, Dearborn Co., Indiana.

+24 v. John HUBER.

He was married to Elizabeth HAMMERLE (daughter of Balthasar HEMMERLE) on Oct 30 1865 in St John's Church, Dover, Dearborn Co, Indiana. Elizabeth HAMMERLE was born on Mar 15 1842 in Kelso, Indiana. She died on Apr 14 1914 in Marion, Ohio and was buried in St Mary Cemetery. Credit Mary Ann Huber, Jo Daniels, and others:

Elizabeth Hammerle was the daughter of Balthasar and Agatha Andres Hammerle. Balthasar was born in Wersterville, County of Gelheim, Bavaria in March 1803. He attended school until his was 14 years of age. He married Agatha Andres in 1826.

In March, 1833, the Hammerles arrived in New Orleans. The family traveled to Indiana, where Balthasar bought 50 acres of land with his last $50.

His occupation was tailoring, but this proved to be unprofitable, so he built a brewery -- the first in Indiana. He managed this business until 1856, when he turned over the business to his son.

Only four of twelve children survived: John, who moved from Marion to Hamilton, Ohio, after retirement; Mrs Frank Weber of Indiana; Elizabeth Huber of Marion, Ohio; and Jacob of Dover. Balthasar died 1 December 1884 and Agatha died 2 March 1871. Both are buried in Dover, Indiana.

On 8 August 1900, Edward and Elizabeth left on the new Steamship, Deutschland, for a three-month tour of Europe, including the Paris Exposition, and a visit to their ancestral home in Germany. They also visited Italy and Switzerland. In Rome, they visited St. Peter's Basilica along with many other Holy Year Pilgrims.

The trip home took seven days in very rough seas. Their ship was caught in a severe Atlantic Ocean storm. In her prayers, Elizabeth promised God that she would donate bells to St. Mary Church in Marion if He would protect the ship. God heard Elizabeth's prayers, for the ship was spared. The following year, the bells were installed in the St. Mary Church bell tower. Most Marionites refer to them as "The Bells of St. Mary," but among Huber descendants, they have always been remembered as "Elizabeth's Bells."

The trunk that Edward and Elizabeth used while on this voyage has been preserved and is now in residence at the Huber Machinery Museum, Marion, Ohio.

He originated a plan by which 2,500 men are paid in from five to seven minutes. He is industrious, and has not been affected in the respect to personality or habits by his inheritance of large property interests from his father."

Frank served as President of the Chamber of Commerce in 1918, and was one of the charter members of the Harding Memorial Association, which began in October of 1923. On 1 August 1927, he resigned as treasurer of the Marion Steam Shovel Company. He had retired as President several months earlier when the company was sold to W. A. Harriman and Company.

"Condensed from notes written by John C. Schroeter, titled "1927 - 1983."

Assistant to Operation Manger, D. G. Richardson of Pan Am's Mexican Division at Brownsville, Texas, in October 1931. Co-pilot working with Senior Pilots, both Americans in Pan Am planes and Mexicans in CIA Mexicana de Aviacion planes.

I had been well trained for a year by the U.S. Air Corps at Brooks and Kelly Fields and was commissioned as an officer, rated as Military Pilot, and as a licensed transport pilot on 22 Jun 1929. Thereafter, I flew as a Reserve Officer with the U.S. Air Corps Reserves throughout my final year at Kit until mid 1930. As was standard practice, I had no instrument training or blind flight experience.

During the three years I worked as a Part-time pilot, I accompanied such senior pilots as George Kraigher, Harold Gray (later a Pan Am President), Ken Beer (who wrote the Pan AM instruction manual of instrument flying), Rudolfo Torres Rico, and Jumenez Nieto.

After an attempt to write a paper (which was abandoned in 1983 because of illness) on primitive non-gyro (T&B excepted), non-electronic instruments of the 1928-30 period, I produced a tape of the Brownsville blind flight history at the request of the Pan Am public relations department. My material was worked into an excellent article for the "Flashback" portion of their April 1983 house organ, The Clipper.
