INDEX

[4709] per Wayne Olsen

From "The Kelloggs in the Old World and the New", by Timothy Hopkins,Sunset Press and Photo Engraving Co., San Francisco, 1903:

"...probably son of Thomas and grandson of Nicholas, of Debden, was the first of the name, in England, from whom the Kelloggs of the New World can, with certainty, trace their descent. He first appears in Bocking, Essex, a parish adjoining Braintree, 15 Sep 1583, when his son Thomas was baptized. Two years later he was found in Great Leighs, where his son, Robert, was baptized in 1585. That the record of baptism of all of his children has not been found, is shown by the record of the burial of his daughter Annis, in Great Leighs, 25 May 1611. The registers of Great Leighs extend to 1558. The record of the baptism of Robert is the first time that the name of Kellogg appears in the registers of that parish. There is a missing link in the chain of documentary evidence connecting the families of Bocking, Great Leighs and Debden. A close study of all the records, together with the trend of emigration from Debden, Thaxted, Bocking, Great Leighs and Braintree (in all of which parishes the principal occupation was spinning and weaving) in connection with the alliances in Great Leighs with persons of the same names as in Debden, convinces me that the line of descent from Nicholas is as given above. A search of Court Rolls of Great Leighs fails to reveal the nameof Kellogg.
No record of his death has been found, and as the records of Great Leighs are quite full, it is probably that he did not die there. He may have rem. to Braintree and had other children, but the records of Braintree extend no farther than 1660 and the earliest known date of aKellogg in Braintree was in 1623, when Moses Woll mentioned Phillippe'sson, Robert, in his will.

The Adam Zimmerman Story
(born 1837 - died 1899)

5 February 2005
Dear Children

Tonight I will tell you about one of your great-great-great grandfathers.

Adam Zimmerman was born in Stratford, Ontario, Canada, 2 June 1837, to Christian and Elizabeth Kneil Zimmerman, both immigrants from Darmstadt, Germany. It appears the family moved to Minnesota in 1851 because Adam's brother, Philip, was born in Canada in Jan 1851 and his father, Christian, died in Minnesota in 1851. Sometime in the 1850's Adam married Eve Hopp. Two Hopp families, George and John, are in Carrolton, Fillmore County, Minnesota, arriving about 1855. Possibly Eve was part of that group. Adam and Eve had seven or eight children. But, the stars were not aligned right for Adam and Eve. Four of their children died in early childhood or infancy. Then Eve died in December of 1867. I have a photo of Eve's tombstone in Preston, Minnesota her four little babies' tombstones roundabout her. Then in March of 1868, just four months later, Adam married again to Elizabeth Britzius, also of German descent. Elizabeth was the oldest of 15 children and no doubt brought some good homemaking skills with her. Though Adam had poor luck with his first family, he still had three little children that needed care, Elizabeth age 8, Mary 7, and William 2, so he was anxious to get a new wife. But that only adds up to seven. What about the "or eight" mentioned above? On my father, Forrest's family tree there is an Albert listed for Adam and Eve. He is not buried with Eve in Preston. Also, he is not mentioned as a survivor at the time of his father's death. So my father may have been mistaken about Albert. However on the 1910 Census Elizabeth says she has borne 11 children and 8 are still living. Now a woman ought to know how many children she has had, don't you agree? So I'm thinking that Elizabeth was married before she married Adam and brought Albert with her. She was 24 when she married Adam and that's a little old for a first marriage though not unreasonably so Albert may have a different last name. The third baby that died could have been with Adam or the first husband.

Adam and Elizabeth had better luck at having children than Adam and Eve did. They had Emma, Aaron, Clara, George, Margaret, Sarah, and Della. But, they also had two babies die. Their children John and Katherine died in 1875. We don't know how old they were because I have been unable to locate Adam and Elizabeth and their family on any census before 1880. It's quite likely they were just missed by the census taker. John and Katherine are also buried at Preston.

Back in the 1800's babies were much more likely to die before the age of 5 than they are today. The number of children up to age five who die out of every 1000 who are born is called the Infant Mortality Rate (IMR). In 1860 in the USA the IMR was 197. Today it is less than 10. Children used to die of many diseases that we now have innoculations for, like small pox, measles, and whooping cough.So if Adam and Eve and Elizabeth had 18 children all together and 7 died before age 5 can you figure the infant mortality rate for that little part of our family?

We have a census record for Adam in 1880 in Carrolton township, Fillmore County, Minnesota. Adam's mother died in 1888 and is buried in Preston, Fillmore County. Adam's daughter, Emma, married Charles Druschel of Clackamas County, Oregon about 1891. Adam died April 1899 in Canby, Clackamas County, Oregon. These are the dates we know about. I believe Adam brought his family to Oregon somewhere between the 1888 and 1891 dates. According to Adam's estate papers Adam loaned out a lot of money in 1898 - over $600.00. He probably got this money by selling his farm in Canby. Perhaps he was ill and it was clear he could no longer operate the farm. The only real property (that means land and buildings) he held at the time of death was a house and 7 acres in Canby.

We have a copy of Adam's estate papers. You can see parts of them by looking in Adam's sources in the family tree program.

You may be wondering what happened to all of Adam's children. So here's what I know about them.

Children with Eve Hopp:

Elizabeth married a man named John Krak and they lived in Pembina County, North Dakota and had at least eight children.

Mary ran a boarding house in Portland and was very kind. She has her own story written up in this history.

William, so far as I know, never married. He died soon after his father did, in 1900 in Oregon.

Children with Elizabeth Britzius:

Emma married a butcher, Charles Druschel, and had at least two children.

Aaron (in some records Arien) married Hannah, had four children, and was a mechanic for a lace factory in Zion, Illinois. That's right next door to where Forrest and family (me) lived from 1955 to 1969 but we never saw them.

Clara married George Hoff and had at least 7 children. They were living in Canby in 1900. One of her children, Violet, helped George Zimmerman when he cared for Minnie after her stroke.

George Edward was my grandfather and I have a whole big story about him and his family in this history.

Margaret S. was working as a private duty nurse and living in Aunt Mary's rooming house in 1910. She is listed a second time in the 1910 census living with her mother at 540 Clay St. in Portland, Oregon. The 1920 census shows her living in Seattle with her sister and working as an embalmer in a funeral parlor. Do you know what that is? It's a person that gets dead bodies ready to be buried. The 1930 census shows her still living in Seattle and working as an embalmer, but by then she has her own home and has a roomer. She apparently never married and lived in Seattle until she died in 1964.

Sarah R. married Ed Gunther and had two children. The 1920 census shows them living in Portland where Ed is working in the wholesale fruit business.

Della never married. The 1920 and 1930 censuses show her working as a bookkeeper in Seattle. Jon Zimmerman visited her in Seattle when he lived nearby in the 1960's. At that time she had been working as a schoolteacher for many years. Della lived to be 91 years old. She died in Seattle in 1979.

I don't know if you kept track, but I figure Adam had 24 grandchildren. That's a pretty good number considering how he and Eve started out.

Adam was a pioneer twice in his life; once as a young teenaged boy when his family moved from Canada to Minnesota, and again when he moved his family from Minnesota to Oregon. Both moves were undoubtedly difficult He saw a lot of grief in his life with the deaths of at least six children and one wife. Life on the frontier in the 1800's required courage, intelligence, and a lot of very hard work just to survive. Adam Zimmerman gave it all he had. We can all be proud of our Adam.

Here's how you're related to Adam. Adam Zimmerman married Elizabeth and had George Zimmerman. George married Minnie and had Forrest Zimmerman. Forrest married Thelma and had Dianne Zimmerman. Dianne married Paul Stevens and had Dawne Stevens. Dawne married Jason Pamplin and had . . . Sarah, Hannah, Timmy, and Becky Pamplin! And you can see that Adam Zimmerman was a very important person in our family.

Love,
Granny

from the Anna Zimmerman Nelson story of our immigrant Zimmerman ancestors:

"When Philip was fourteen years old, Henry, being in need of money, advised Philip to work for someone who would pay him a salary. So it came about that he was employed by an old Scotchman for six months for ten dollars a month and board and room. When the six months were up, the Scotchman paid him the salary in silver dollars. Philip carried those sixty silver dollars home six miles to Henry, who gave him seventyfive cents out of it for spending money. This was the first spending money Philip had ever had, and the first thing he bought was a comb for himself, thinking how fine it would be to have one all his very own. Then, as most boys would have done, he bought a jack-knife, and with the money he had left, he bought a candy treat for his brothers. He was badly in need of a suit of clothes at this time, so that he could go to church and Sunday School, but that seems to have been out of the question. Adam, who was next younger than Henry, and who was now living in the United States at Preston, Minnesota, made a visit to Canada about this time. When he returned to the states, he brought Philip with him. Elizabeth lived with her children in Minnesota until her death, October 18, 1888, at the Adam Zimmerman home three or four miles north of Preston."

[11187] per Zimmerman History - Adam married Eve Hopp and his sister Katherine married Eve's brother George in a double wedding ceremony in Preston.
