1833 SCHULER family arrives in Baltimore, Maryland

Seven members of the SCHULER family emigrate from Endingen to Baltimore, Maryland in June 1833. My second great grandfather John SCHULER (1815-1875) arrived with his parents and four siblings between July and September of 1833.

According to David, at least two Endingens exist. The SCHULER family is from Endingen, Oberamt Balingen, Württenberg. It is in the district known as Zollernalbkreis.

Unit thirty-five of the Endingen Emigrants to America by David J. Sautter was prepared 23 April 2012. The complete writings by David are available on FamilySearch.org. The complete title of unit thirty- five is Johann Georg Schuler and his wife, Agnes Zimmermann, left Endigen in 1833 with their five children,Johannes, Andreas, Anna Barbara, Anna Elisabetha and Johann Georg and settled in Ohio. As of this writing, the chapter is only available for downloading at the Family History Center. The volunteers will print or download to your travel drive. Earlier chapters of this book are available for reading online at home. Thank you David for all your diligent work and for sharing your research.

IN OTTAWA 66 YEARS

Ottawa’s Oldest Citizen Arrived on October 10, 1836.

  Many of the older citizens of Ottawa have been here for a long term of years, but none so long as our fellow townsman, Mr. J.N. Shuler. Sixty-six years ago today he came to Ottawa with his father’s family from near Harrisburg, Pa. They came by boat down the Ohio and up the Mississippi and Illinois rivers to LaSalle. From there the journey was by wagon to Ottawa. Says the Rep. Times.

  At the time of the arrival of Mr. Shuler the inhabitants of Ottawa were not very numerous. The houses on this side of the Illinois numbered only about a dozen and on the south side perhaps double that number. The business was all conducted on the south side, and at the time $18 was the price of a barrel of flour. On this side of the river the old barracks and log jail were situated at the site of the Fox River Hotel; the Mansion House – for years the leading hotel – was just being completed, and Mr. Shuler and his folks stopped there until the completion of their own home. The inhabitants all told numbered not more than 100.

  Even though many people feel that Ottawa has not developed nearly fast enough, there certainly have been many changes and much advancement during the period of Mr. Shuler’s citizenship.
