MULLET: Census: 1880, IN, St Joseph Co, Liberty Twp, 566 Notes for HENRY SHENEMAN: "During almost half a century this sturdy old St. Joseph pioneer has resided within the county's borders, and he is therefore numbered among the honored citizens who have not only witnessed the remarkable growth and transformation of the region but have been important factors in its progress and advancement. He traces his lineage to the sturdy German race, his grandfather F.D.F. Sheneman, came from the fatherland and established his home in Pennsylvania, from whence he removed to Ohio. The original German spelling of the name was 'Schoenemann.' Henry Sheneman was born in Holmes County, Ohio, June 25, 1836, and has therefore almost passed the three quarter mark on the journey of life. In his parents' family were twelve children; eleven sons and one daughter, but only five of the number are now living, the eldest being Henry, whose name introduces this review. F.D.F is a retired farmer in North Liberty; Isaac is a farmer of Kosciusko county, Indiana; John is a retired agriculturist of Liberty Township; and Zachariah, the youngest, also resides in Liberty Township, where he is engaged in farming....Their son Henry Sheneman was reared in his native county of Holmes as a farmer and stockman, and at the early age of fourteen years he became a wage earner at five dollars a month, which munificent salary was given to his father. Thus when he reached the age of twenty-one years he had not twenty dollars to his credit, and in true pioneer style he began at the very bottom round of the ladder of life. One the 29th of August, 1860, he was united into marriage to Miss Elizabeth Mullet, and they became the parents of seven children, four sons and three daughters, and six of the number are yet living. The eldest Susanna, is the wife of Isaiah Roush, who is one of the leading farmers of Liberty Township, and they have seven children, Charles, Claude, Melvin, Milo, Mabel, Iva and Alta. Mr. Roush is a stanch Democrat in his political affiliations. Rhoda Jane is the wife of Schuyler Kane, also al farmer in Liberty Township, and their five children are Robert, Anna, Lola, Allen, and Eldon. Mrs. Kane had been previously married to Abraham Stull, by whom she had two living children, Elizabeth, the wife of John Hummel, and they have two children, Edna and Clarence, and George Henry, who resides in the state of Washington. The history of the third child, John Sheneman, will be found on another page. Washington is one of the prosperous farmers of Liberty Township. He married Miss Ella Stroup, who died leaving two children, Clyde and Vera. He erected one of the finest bank barns in the township in 1906, and is both a stockman and farmer, also belonging to the Gleaners, a farmer's insurance order. Alanzo is a prominent farmer of Madison township, and Elizabeth Ann, the youngest, is at home with her parents. Mrs. Sheneman was born in Holmes County, Ohio, November 28, 1835, her parents being Nocholas and Anna (Biddicoffer) Mullet, both natives of Switzerland. In early life they crossed the ocean to America, spending thirteen weeks on voyage. The father was then eighteen years of age, and he first established his home in New York, removing thence to Holmes County, Ohio, and there he and his wife and his father died. He became a very successful farmer and stockman, having accumulated about five hundred acres of land, and in one year sold over a thousand dollars' worth of wool. His political affiliations were with the Democracy, and both he and his wife were members of the German Reformed Church. Mr. and Mrs. Mullet became the parents of twelve children, and nine are now living are: Elizabeth, the wife of Mr. Sheneman; John, an agriculturist in Holmes County, Ohio; Anna, the widow of Michael Steel, and a resident of Liberty Township; Daniel, and agriculturalist of Whitney County, Indiana; Joseph, a resident farmer of Missouri; Samuel, engaged farmer of Holmes County, Ohio, Susie the widow of William Bell and a resident of Ohio; Thomas, who is also engaged in agriculture pursuits in Holmes County; and Abraham, the youngest, who resides in the old homestead. Mrs. Sheneman received her education in the German tongue, and after their marriage, which was celebrated in Ohio, the young couple started their journey to St. Joseph County, Indiana, where Mr. Sheneman purchased eighty acres of his present farm, on which stood a little log cabin with one door and window, and two acres of land had been partially cleared. As the years passed by and with the aid of his sons he placed the land under an excellent state of cultivation, adding thereto until he is the owner of two hundred acres all lying in Liberty Township. No state in the Union can boast of a more heroic band of pioneers than Indiana, and their privation, hardships and labors have resulted in establishing one of the foremost commonwealths in America, and one which still has greater possibilities before it. But their work is nearly complete, and soon, too soon, will the last of these sturdy pioneers be laid away, but their memory will ever be cherished by those who lived among them and appreciated their efforts. The name of Henry Sheneman is closely associated with the early history of St. Joseph County, which has been his home for many years, and throughout that long period he has been closely allied with it's upbuilding and development. He has been a life-long supporter of Democracy, and has ever been a firm friend of the public school, doing everything in his power for advancement. During the long period of thirty years he has been a member of the Masonic order, exemplifying i his ever day life its beneficent principles, and both he and his wife are members of the German Reformed Church."
