History of Woodbury County, Iowa 1984

Sulsberger
By Carolyn Sulsberger

Louis Sulzberger was born August 8, 1841, at Pater Spacie, Bavaria, Germany. He came to America and Woodsfield County, Ohio, at the age of fourteen. He traveled with half-brother, Andrew Dieter, reportedly leaving Germany at a time when the country was once again preparing to go to war, and drafting young men. He had shared an inheritance of thirteen acres at Schoenau, Germany, near Rembauch.

After the presidential elections of 1860 divided the country on the slavery issue, and the controversy erupted to Civil War in 1861, Louis was enlisted into the 116th Regiment of the Ohio Infantry on August 15, 1862. In a diary kept during this period of service, Louis told of the need for the soldiers to feed themselves as they marched. One way was by helping themselves, from the farmer?s hen houses, to eggs which were eaten raw while traveling to the next battlefield.

Louis served until the close of the war, and in June of 1865 was mustered out of the army, receiving $45.25 for clothing allowance, $25.00 Bounty paid, with $75.00 to be paid at a later date.

Louis married Lena Reisser, spelled Ricer in some papers. They were the parents of seven children, Fred, Minnie, Charles, Sophie, Frances, Everett and John.

One of their sons, Charles Christopher Sulsberger came to Woodbury County, in 1885, at the age of seventeen. On May 1890, he was united in marriage to Lucetta ?Settie? Reich, who had recently come from Woodsfield County, Ohio. Settie was born October 13, 1869, the first of nine children born to Andrew Reich, born October 14, 1843, died April 23, 1923, and Elizabeth Claus Reich, born July 4, 1849, died February 14, 1920. Elizabeth?s parents were: Henry Claus, Sr, born 1818, died 1904, and Elizabeth Ackerman, born 1819, died 1901.

Charles and Settie were the parents of nine children born in the ?German City? area between Smithland and Holly Springs. When their seventh child, Paul, was a small boy, they sold their farm and moved back to Woodsfield County, Ohio, for two years, returning to this county before the birth of their eighth child, Charles. They moved to the Climbing Hill area where they again farmed. The land on which the present-day town sits was once part of their farm. Darrell ?Whitey? Sulsberger now owns this farm.
