THANKS so much for the reply. From what I understand Anton Henn is buried at the Immaculate Conception Church (Catholic) in St. Mary's. This information was shared with me by another researcher over two years ago. Hoping to do research in St. Genevieve County one day. THANKS again! Yvette Stewart

Earlier I posted the hours for the Park Hill's library and made a mistake. The hours for Wednesday thru Friday are 11am to 5pm, NOT 10a - 5p. I'm sorry! Sue

From the Desk of: Betty Gegg 19121 State Route P Ste. Genevieve, MO 63670 573-883-3606 For Immediate Release: Order Family Books Now; Get Them At Jour de Fete Now is the time to order family history books from Ste. Genevieve Project Pioneers in order to assure your order can be filled at Jour de Fete. This year's books include the families of Labruyere, Hermann/Herman and Brooks. Each year the Project Pioneers committee has a certain amount of books printed prior to Jour de Fete, however often the supply runs out and those who have not ordered must wait for a second printing. In order to assure you will get a book at the celebration, call now and request the number of books you will need. These will be held in your name until you pick them up. Call Mary Ann Rollet at 573-543-2039 or Jean Pettus at 573-883-3925 to reserve your books.

Posting this information is a WONDERFUL thing! THANK YOU! How far are you going with this? I am waiting "patiently" for anything from December 1886...(it looks like I will have to wait awhile though, huh?). Do you do look ups? Do you have the Herald deaths from December of 1886. I am descended from Anton Henn of St. Mary's. All I have is that he died in December, 1886. Would love to know if there is an obituary listed for him. I completely understand if you are unable to do this request. I feel sure you get bombarded with e-mails from folks like me. BUT anything you would be willing to post would be greatly appreciated. THANKS again for all you do! Yvette Taylor Stewart Stockbridge, GA Taylor Family History

Yvette, The part of 1886 that I have is only the first three or four months. Hopefully, the next reel that Sue gets will pick up in 1886 where that reel left off and will include December when your ancestor died. Bettye > Yvette: > > Give me a little time.

Yvette: Give me a little time. I've just ordered the microfilm for the last part of 1886 to about 1900 (I think that's where this reel ends). Bettye Warner is posting for 1885 & part of 1886. I'm trying to get thru '83 and into '84 as quickly as I can. As long as there is microfilm for the Herald, we'll keep posting - I don't know how many years there are available - can't remember. There are other newspapers that we will be posting from, too, and anything that I can find on Ste. Gen., will be sent to the list and posted on the Rootsweb message boards. All these postings will also end up on the Ste. Genevieve GenWeb site, too., thanks to Katy Hestand. We're really glad that everyone is enjoying the postings. They're alot of fun to do and we appreciate all the nice comments from everyone about them. I will keep your email and watch for Anton Henn - any info on him (he's not listed in the Ste. Gen. Tombstone Inscription books). I really don't mind keeping an eye out for anyone's folks. I've noticed that the info from the smaller towns depends on if the reporter's get it to the Herald in time to be printed. Lawrenceton, St. Mary, Chestnut Ridge, etc.; their news is not always a weekly item. Thanks!

The Genealogy Night at the Park Hills Library has been cancelled for July. The library will be closed on July 5th, and due to so many people taking vacations, we decided to cancel and resume our get together on the first Monday of August, from 6 p.m. til 8 p.m. The library has new hours, also, opening at 10 a.m. and closing at 7 p.m. on Monday and Tuesdays. Wednesday thru Friday the hours are 10 a.m. til 5 p.m. The library is now closed on Saturdays. Bettye, Sharon and myself are usually at the library on Monday and Tuesday evenings, so if anyone needs help or wishes to come and research, please do. We hope that you have a good summer and we'll see you, again, on Aug. 2nd! Sue

Ste. Genevieve Herald Ste. Genevieve, Mo. Saturday, Mar. 31, 1883 CORRESPONDENCE St. Mary, March 28, 1883 The question that engrosses the attention of all our citizens at present is whether the city council men now holding office will be likely to be reelected or not; and it is a question of great importance, as the welfare of our little community depends largely upon the wisdom and foresight of the city fathers. Let every voter take into serious consideration the question, who is the right man in the right place and then go and cast his vote according to his best judgement. A grand ball was given by the young folks of St. Mary at Difani's hall last Monday night, which was well attended by the people of St. Mary and vicinity. Messrs. Chas. KENNER and Andr. WOLF, acted as floor-managers and acquitted themselves splendidly, as was shown by the way the company enjoyed the fun until the late hour. Two young fellows, whose name I was unable to learn, got into an altercation near BIEHLE's store, Perry county, last Monday which resulted in a fight, in the course of which one of them drew a knife and cut the other so severely in the abdomen that he died a few minutes after. The two young men were respectively 16 and 18 years old. The murderer has not yet been apprehended. Mr. ROZIER intends to erect a large warehouse on the lot adjoining his store and Wm. HOFFMAN, who has heretofore used the little frame building for his saddler business has in consequence been obliged to move the shop to his old quarters in TOWNSEND's house. Several Gypsy vagabonds were in town this week, and as it is their proper business to tell the future to the poor, deluded mortals, they tried for several days to gull the St. Marians, but must have found this burg a barren field, for they left, disgusted at finding our citizens no ninnies, and moved down to Chester in search of "fresh fields and pastures green."

Ste. Genevieve Herald Ste. Genevieve, Mo. Saturday, Mar. 31, 1883 A CARD To the Public: I feel that it is incumbent upon me to say a few words by way of explanation of the serious charge made by the Fair Play of last week against me in reference to the charge of "felonious assualt" charged to have been made by me upon Chauncy VAN WINKLE. The simple truth of the matter is that VAN WINKLE, being indebted to me and refusing to pay, I, having occassion to go away from home for a day or two, told my bar-keeper, Louis SCHULTZ, a little boy of less than 15 years of age, and my son, 11 years old, not to give him any thing to drink unless he paid for it, and he, VAN WINKLE, taking advantage of my absence, abused and frightened both of the little boys, out of various drinks, even going so far as to threaten to strike them and trying to go behind the counter to take money belonging to the bar, on the excuse that I owed him, and otherwise behaving in a disorderly manner. When I returned home and was told how he behaved to my boys during my absence, I naturally felt indignant and took occassion to tell him what I thought of such contemptible, cowardly conduct, and upon him attempting to strike me, I knocked him over and ordered him out of my house. Not believing that any fair-minded set of men would say but that I served him right, I did not think it necessary to make any defence before the justice, but waived examination and am ready to have the matter tried by a jury of my peers and feel confident that their verdict will be to the effect that I served him right. I did not have or use, any brass knucks. These facts can be substantiated by some of the best men in Ste. Genevieve. GEORGE SEXAUER ***** (Communicated) New Offenburg, Mo. March 20th, 1883 Ed. Ste. Genevieve Herald, Dear Sir: As we thought that small news items from the country might be acceptable to you, we concluded to furnish you one. Business at the Stony Point Saw Mill is brisk and if we keep our health, the hill tops of the neighborhood will soon be as naked as the bald hornet of the Ozark.

Ste. Genevieve Herald Ste. Genevieve, Mo. Saturday, Mar. 31, 1883 The Perryville Circuit Court meets on Monday, April 9th, which will cause quite an exodus of our citizens who are witnesses in the Charley ROY case to be tried there on a change of venue from this county. The sheriff has cummoned Joe. VORST, Dr. ANDRE, Dr. BRAHAM, Frk. BABB, Emile LELIE and several colored people as witnesses in the case. P.L. LEMPKE will also be summoned as witness, as soon as the sheriff can find him. We learn that Charley SAUERS of Fredericktown has an intention to remove to Ste. Genevieve. Come on, Charley; there are many friends to welcome you at your old home, and as to suckers, you will have the finest specimens right across the river, of a size to beat anything that can be found near Fredericktown. Just before going to press, we learned that Anthony SAMSON and William BANTZ are candidates for school directors. Both are good men and we are inclined to believe that no two other men could be found in town who are so worthy of the confidence of the people as those two. The other day we had occassion to drop into the mammoth store of ROZIER & JOKERST and were surprised at the immense and varied stock of goods that they are receiving every day. Everything in the way of General Merchandise is kept by them and sold at such remarkably low prices that it is not astonishing to find their store constantly thronged with anxious purchasers. Joe BAECHLE's duck raising establishment proved a dead failure. While out hunting this week, he shot two ducks, one of which, a little one, had it's wing broken but lived. Joe put it into his yard to see whether he could raise it but forgot to lock up the cat and, in a short time, found that the blood-thirsty Grimalkin had bitten its head off. Cats don't agree with ducks. Henry GILLENBERG a well to do farmer in Randolph Co., Ill., is a customer of John WOLF of St. Mary. The other day John made a pair of boots for Henry and, knowing that gentleman to be a very stout man, he made the amplest allowance for the calves; but when the boots were tried on, lo! the breeches wouldn't go in. John swore, the next time he would take Henry's measure by the flour barrel. Those who know George SEXAUER will be slow to believe, as charged in the Fair Play, that he wantonly beat a poor sick boy with a pair of brass knucks, for the only provocation of having imbibed too much whiskey in his saloon. And we protest that, as Mr. SERAUER waived examination before the justice, and consequently, there being no proof offered on his side - which would have been a useless waste of breath and time, for who ever heard of a justice failing to bind a man accused of crime - it is unfair, to say the least of it, for the Prosecuting Attorney to try, convict, and sentence him in his paper. Our friend Joe MUNSCH, of Farmington cane to town last week with his left hand in a sling. He was engaged is sawing cedar posts when the saw suddenly jumped up knocking him down. He did not feel particularly hurt and going to resume his work when his comrade cried out "look at you finger!" when to his surprise he found that the third (gold) finger of the left hand was almost completely gone. The doctor patched up the damage as best he could, and Joe, came to his old home to warm his heart by the fervent greetings of his many friends in Ste. Genevieve. He is always welcome. Frank BABB has undoubtly the best educated horses on the face of the Globe. Last Tuesday he sent his driver to take a traveler to St. Mary. The drive did as he was told but, on his way back, found out that SCHIRMAN had had a ball on Monday night and, the crumbs of the feast not having been entirely disposed of, he partook of the good things set before him at his leisure. Frequent potations must have made the driver unmanageable, for when the horses saw there was no getting along with him, and Frank BABB waiting for the team besides, they gently deposited the inebrite postilion in a mudpuddle and came home by themselves. A broken spring was all the harm that befell.

Ste. Genevieve Herald Ste. Genevieve, Mo. Saturday, Mar. 31, 1883 Miss Emma BETTEN is on a visit to her brother Christ, in Cape Girardeau. Spring has announced his coming by a snow-storm and rough weather. A naughty spring. We hear that the wheat in the vicinity ofLawrenceton looks poor, being very much damaged by the frost. We learn that our friend, Mr. CETTO, has been very sick of late with the winter fever, but at last accounts, was recoveriing. Leo. JOKERST will give a grand opening Ball at Union hall on Wednesday night, to which everybody is cordially invited. The revenue on cigars has been reduced from 5 to 3 dollars per thousand. Our saloon keepers will hereafter sell 5 cent cigars for a nickle. Joe WIRTH who lately occupied Mr. CETTO's house in town, is said tohave taken French leave. He was to pay arrears in rent and deliver the key of the house to Joe VORST, but failed to do either: probably forgot it. John FALK, one of our progressive young men, who is studying pharmacy at the St. Louis Medical College, came down on a flying visit last Saturday and staid until Wednesday. John intends to go to Philadelphia next fall to complete his studies and become a first class druggist. With regard to the big boys, Ste. Genevieve county fully holds her own. There is one living in the neighborhood of Punjaub under 15 years of age, who measures 5 ft. 8 in. and weighs 152 lbs; not to speak of our fat boy in town who weighs 185 pounds at the age of 16. On the evening of Mar. 22, Polk ABERNATHY a colored roust about, living at Cape Girardeau, was shot twice in the thigh by the mate of the Hudson. The difficulty is said to have arisen from an old feud. We could not learn whether the mate had been found; at any rate, the Hudson passed Ste. Genevieve Monday night as usual. We learn that young Lawrence JOKERST, who lives on the Fredericktown Road, has been dangerously sick with the typhoid pneumonia this week. A nursery agent has arrived in town from Dayton, Ohio, who will negotiate for fruit and other trees. Those of our farmers who do not want any trees, will have ample time to get out of the way. On Wednesday afternoon, our enterprising farmer and stockraiser Jacob HOOG, passed through town with a herd of fine cattle to be shipped to St. Louis by the Emma C. Elliott. The animals were in splendid condition.

I don't think the lists can accept attachments... at least the one I run can't hehe. Anyway, if you like, you can email it to me and I can post it on http://stegenevieve.net. There is already a section for unknown photos and I have beenthinking might be nice to create a section for known photos. Maybe in the future can create a page that lets visitors post their own photos, yeah, that would be nice. Anyway, then you could give that address out.... valerie mbolive <mbolive@bellsouth.net> wrote: To Listowner, I am asking permission to show a picture of a relative in hope someone may be able to recognize it.

Ste. Genevieve Herald Ste. Genevieve, Mo. Saturday, Mar. 24, 1883 DIED: Thursday evening, Mar. 15, 1883 of typhoid pneumonia, Londelinus LINDERER, son of Ignatius L., at the age of fifteen years and eight months. The loss of his hopeful son is a sad loss to Mr. LINDERER, who had hoped to see his boy grow up to manhood, the joy of his age and a useful member of society. In Bollinger county near the boundary of Cape Girardeau, G.W. HOUCK lost his life in the most shocking manner. The man had loaded a wagon with wheat and mounted it in a completely intoxicated condition. His behavior frightened the horses, they ran away, and HOUCK fell from the wagon. In his fall, his clothes caught in a hook, and he was dragged over the rough road in a headlong career for a mile, before the team could be stopped and the fearfully mutilated body loosened from the wagon.
