The Catholic village of Speier was first situated on the left bank of the Beresan, about 5 miles from it's source and 3 miles north of the Catholic village of Landau. The first families arrived in July of 1809, with the rest arriving in the Spring of 1810. By 1839, according to Conrad Keller in his book "The German Colonies of South Russia 1804-1904, the colony had expanded to both sides of the Beresan River.
The village was given it's name by Johannes Schanz of Lingenfeld, Pfalz in memory of Speyer, the ancient Palatinate capital on the left bank of the Rhine. The journey from the border city of Radzivilov to the new village of Speier took the settlers eighteen weeks to complete. They arrived in the fall, too late to build their homes before winter...so the head of every family dug a square hole in his lot and covered it with a roof made of reeds and some wood. This was their home, in which they lived during their first winter. It was cold and damp in these quarters, and many settlers became ill and died during the winter. In the Spring, when the other two groups of settlers arrived, the Crown houses were built.
Overgrown with reeds and creepers and grass as tall as a man, the first sight the settlers had of their new "home" was indeed very bleak and dreary...especially to these colonists that had just left their homes in the beautiful Rhine region....and now were to live on these steppes where only wild animals such as wolves and foxes had made their homes. The German colonists were full of determination and faith that the Almighty God would help them. They began building their village, which grew and expanded through the years until March 15, 1944, when the village of Speier was dissolved by the Russian Government. The last 25 years of it's existence was marked by much suffering and misery as the Russians raided the villages, murdered the men, stole their belongings and tried to force the German families to leave Russia. Taxes were imposed, and raised to ridiculous heights so that the Germans couldn't possibly pay them. Property was seized for payment. Famine and hunger were rampant, as the government first took all of their crops (but the Germans replanted with their seeds) and then returned to take the seeds as well. Many families died the slow death of starvation. By this time, many of our ancestors had already left their village to come to America, or had entered into Germany. Many were gathered up and sent off to Siberia to work in the labor camps, never to be heard from again. A very few that have survived these camps, have in recent years been allowed to leave and emigrate into Germany. The village of Speier was dissolved by the Russian Government on March 15, 1944. Those living there at that time were gathered up and relocated in the Posen District of Poland. The new name for the now Russian village would be "PESTSCHANYJ BROD" from then on.

These are the families listed in the 1812 Census of Speier. This was compiled by Fr. Conrad Keller and printed in an old "Kalenderbuch" dated circa 1912-1914 as part of the 100 year Jubilee of the Catholic villages in the Beresan District of South Russia. The original copy of the publication belonged to Karl Berger and was occasionally brought out and shared with his visiting granddaughter, Vera Berger Hoff, when she was a teenager. Years later, she made a copy of this and has now graciously donated the information to the researchers of the Beresan villages listed within. Peter Mock and Roland Wagner have donated their time in the translation of the German version into English. The household listings were originally in numerical order, and for ease of searching, I have rearranged the households alphabetically.

Farmer and cooper
Birkenhoerdt, near Bad Bergzabern, in the Rheinland- Pfalz area of Germany, is the ancestral home of Balthasar Seibert (b. 1 Feb 1816) and Margaretha Wegman Seibert (b. March 1816). They married 25 May 1846 in Birkenhoerdt. Elisabeth Seibert (later Huntley) was b. 13 November 1846. This information is known to us through matching the names and birth dates of family members with information from the Catholic Church in Birkenhoerdt, which information has been transcribed and entered into the computerized records of the LDS (Mormon) Church. These records and the family connections may be confirmed on line at www.FamilySearch.comAccording to the records of FamilySearch, Balthasar Seibert had 3 brothers and sisters: Jacob b. 20 March 1819; Elisabetha Catharina b. 3 Jan 1824; and Antonius b. 16 September 1826. Jacob may have married Anna Maria Emanuel, 17 Feb 1846; he is believed to have gone to the DuQuoin, IL area at an unknown date with wife and family. It is uncertain what became of the other brother and sister. The lack of information about the sister, and the fact that her name was assigned to Balthasar's first child, leads me to theorize she may have died as an infant. Margaretha Wegman was one of 10 children; much information is available at www.FamilySearch. com.The Balthasar Seibert family emigrated to the U. S. either in 1849 (probable) or 1850, to Rochester, NY. There is an entry on the 1850 census which may belong to them (names may be misspelled), along with a possible brother of Margaretha Wegman named Andrew (Andreas) Wegman. Elisabeth is the only child known to have been born in Germany; her baptismal record is available. Her sister Emma, born either in NY or possibly in Germany, died as an infant, and is said to be buried in New York. Katherine Seibert was born in Rochester, NY in 1852, and Mary Seibert in Illinois in c. 1858. The Seiberts moved from NY to IL some time between 1852 and 1858, and spent most of their time either in or around DuQuoin, IL or Belleville, IL.Much additional information about the Seiberts and Wegmans in Germany is available through www. FamilySearch. com, and additional information is known about the Huntleys and Seiberts from family sources. We hope to write a "complete report" of the lives, family connections and life stories about the German families and the Huntleys in Caruthersville, sometime in the next few months._________________________________This document was prepared 4/11/2001 by Robert Donnell, son of Evelyn McDonald Donnell, daughter of Elizabeth Huntley.My current address is: 3833 Nobel Drive, #3230, San Diego, CA 92122; (858) 458-5140 or RobDonnell@BigFoot.com.If you have additional family stories, dates, info, PHOTOS, please contact me!Special debt of gratitude to Mac (Eugene F.)

BIOGRAPHY: Hi Recs - pleasure hearing from you. Thanks for thinking, still, about the
Eisenhauer letters. I've been swamped, too, and gone little farther, but
am still very interested. I entered a couple quick comments yesterday, which you acknowledged below.
I have today exchanged emails with Sherry Mitchell, the source of the hard copy documents which substantiated my comments of yesterday... She tells me there is even more documentation (three later census reports) confirming the idea that Ferdinand Seibert was born in Rochester, New York
in 1851 rather than in Illinois (which information is listed in the 1870 and 1880 census reports). The confusion over whether Ferdinand was born in Illinois or in Rochester, New York, is not completely resolved in favor of Rochester, as far as I am concerned (and this is an important point for us
in attempting to determine when Jacob and Balthasar Seibert, both living in Rochester starting in 1850, may have left for Illinois). I apologize for not having begun to provide substantial the results of my
research into the descendants of Balthasar and Anton, those two brothers of Jacob Seibert (b. c. 1818 in Birkenhoerdt). I am close to beginning to provide you with my results, and will document each "claim" as thoroughly as possible for your records. Even before beginning to do so, however, I would like to put on paper a very important set of insights concerning Anton Seibert. He has for some
time been recorded in the online database of the Birkehoerdt Project as having "disappeared", essentially (no information re marriage or death was available). I think I know the answers to all these questions, and will outline these below. More importantly, the insight which allowed me to
make the identification of Anton Seibert of Birkenhoerdt as being the same Anton Seibert living in Belleville, Illinois by 1855 at the latest, is based on information known only to me, and which I think it is entirely possible no one could with certainly reproduce. For this reason, I'd like to go ahead now and give you the basis for this important "conclusion". (I'll sleep better knowing someone else knows this information, frankly.) Hardcore documentation proving beyond any doubt that the Anton Seibert
born in Birkenhoerdt and brother to Jacob and Balthasar was the same person as the Anton Seibert living in Belleville, Illinois in 1855 has not been found, even after a very diligent search effort. The evidence I have collected is nonetheless compelling for me, that the two Antons are the same person. My evidence is the following: In 1972 I traveled to Du Quoin, Illinois, to research Seibert family
history. I met by accident a man named Alvin Seibert, almost 80 years old, in Du Quoin. While he told me that he was a grandson of a man named Jacob Seibert, I did not know for sure whether he was a descendant of the "right" Jacob Seibert - of the man who was brother to my ancestor Caspar
Balthasar (& Margaretha Wegmann) Seibert. It was clearly possible that he and I were descended from different groups of Seiberts. Although neither he nor I was able to connect our two families with certainty, he told me what he knew about his ancestors and other Seiberts. Very promisingly, he
indicated that his grandfather Jacob had had a brother named "Balsy" - who might have been my ancestor "Balthasar" AKA "Balser". Unfortunately, and in fact very confusingly, he said that this "Balsy" had only had 2 sons, Louis and Leopold, and no daughters (when in fact my Balthasar Seibert had
only 3 daughters, Elizabeth, Kate, and Mary). (For this reason, 30 years went by after 1972, in which I was not at all convinced that Alvin Seibert and I were related at all.) He completed his account of his branch of the Seiberts - impressing me very much, incidentally, with the clearness of his recall of most of the information he remembered - stating even the names of most of the children of Louis and Leopold, as well as where Anton, Louis, and Leopold lived (near Mascoutah, Illinois). It was clear
he was speaking of definite people, and of relatives. Unfortunately, it seemed that his Jacob Seibert might be a different person from the one related to me. A few months ago, I made contact with Ms. Sherry Mitchell, online, who grew up in Du Quoin and is also descended from the same Jacob Seibert as Alvin Seibert - who she knows to be "my" Jacob Seibert of Birkenhoerdt. Thus she proved the connection of my Seiberts to those of Alvin Seibert - and simultaneously validated his stories about Louis and Leopold Seibert, etc. The problem for me switched from trying to determine whether Alvin
was related to me or not, to figuring out how his at first contradictory stories of "Balsy with two sons" could be made to fit the real facts. At this point I made a "leap of faith" and guessed, with great luck, that Anton Seibert of Birkenhoerdt might have been the father of the Louis and Leopold Seibert mentioned by Alvin Seibert, rather than "Balsy". Starting from this hypothesis, I have since been able to convincingly substantiate this hypothesis. Online searches almost immediately turned up and 1860 and 1870 census records for Anton Seibert, living with his THREE sons Jacob, Louis, and
Leopold, and wife Katherine Nebo. I also discovered the marriage record of 1855 for one "Anthony Seibert" and "Katherine Nebo". Moreover, I discovered a reference to Anton's early death in 1873, at age 46. (I believe that it is because of Anton's very early disappearance in contrast
to his brothers, each of whom died 20 to almost 30 years later, that Alvin
Seibert had no recollection of Anton Seibert.) The above information sufficed and suffices in my mind to make a compelling case for the Anton Seibert of Belleville, father of Jacob, Louis, and Leopold, having been the same person as Anton Seibert of Birkenhoerdt. As indicated above, I have diligently sought after absolute proof of their identity - have, for instance, tried all avenues to find the birth date of the Anton Seibert who died in Belleville in 1873, with no luck. His age at the time of death, however, was 46 - which is consistent with the known date of birth for the Anton Seibert of Birkenhoerdt (1827), even though this does not suffice to PROVE the two men were the same Anton Seibert. I have gone on to fairly well trace the offspring of Anton Seibert. Anton's death record at the Mascoutah Illinois old "Holy Infant Childhood Church" shows his wife's name to have been "Katherine Newa" (note spelling, in contrast to the "Nebo" spelling in their 1855 marriage record). Son Jacob Seibert died in 1878, and is buried in the same Mascoutah Old Holy Infant Childhood Cemetery as Anton (they are the only
two Seiberts in that cemetery). Jacob is identified as having been the son of Anton Seibert and Katherine Newa (I know there are 2-3 documented appearances of the spelling "Newa", and only one of "Nebo" as in the 1855 marriage). Anton's widow Katherine Newa Seibert remarried to one August Rother in the Mascoutah area before the end of the same year that Anton died. In the census of 1880, they are listed as Katherine and August Rother, and Louis and Leopold are living with them, listed as "step-sons" of August Rother. Leopold never married. Louis married and had various children, most of
whose names I had already received, amazingly, from Alvin Seibert. And so on. I look forward to sharing with you all information I have been able to discover about Anton Seibert and his descendants, and on my line (through brother Balthasar Seibert) as well, very soon. Note additionally concerning Anton Seibert's wife, Katherine Newa, that there are other people named Newa living in the Mascoutah area in the late 1800's. I am convinced that they are of the same family, although I have no proof. I speculate that Anton and Katherine Newa lived in the Mascoutah area because of her family ties there - while Jacob and Balthasar Seibert both spent most of their lives in the Du Quoin area. (Immediate
descendants of Anton Seibert lived not only in the area of Mascoutah, which is in St. Clair County, Illinois, but in adjacent "New Baden", which is in Clinton County, Illinois.) Again, I will provide more complete information about all these folks and a lot more in the very near future. Right now, however, I am all too keenly aware, at the moment, of the very "tenuous existence" of my identification of Anton Seibert in Mascoutah as the same Anton Seibert from Birkenhoerdt. A little diversification of this knowledge, which may be uniue and unreproducible, makes me feel a little better! :)
Thank you, as before, for all the hard work you are doing. It is greatly - greatly - appreciated.
My best to you and Ursula. I hope your summer weather is beautiful. With a
lot of luck, I may have the opportunity to spend a fair amount of time in
Germany next summer. I can't wait!
All the best,
Robert Donnell
