Dear Dianne
One time you asked me about the story given to me by Rolland Zimmerman. He stated that he had a letter written by Anna Zimmerman in 1905. It stated Johann Christian came to Canada in 1834 from Altheim, Germany. No state was given. It stated their town had a church with a very high steeple. Rolland wrote to the central Lutheran church in Germany and asked what Lutheran church in (a town named Altheim) in Germany had a very high steeple in 1834. He got a reply back that there were three (such) churches with a very high steeple in 1834,
With this information Rolland went to Germany and visited the first two on the list. (In) these two Altheims in different states no Zimmermans could be found. He then hired another interpreter and went to Altheim in the state of Hessen. There was a note on the parrish door saying (the pastor) would be back in one hour. So Rolland went to the town cemetery. He found Zimmermans all over the cemetery. He went back to the parrish house and was told by the young pastor that there were no Zimmermans that were attending church there at that time. Rolland told him about all the Zimmermans in the cemetery. (The pastor) advised he had only been there a short time and the name was unfamilair to him.
Rolland and his interpreter were crestfallen. All the time and money he had spent on this project were for nothing. Just as he got to the front gate of the little yard a car drove up. It was the former pastor. When he was asked if there had ever been any Zimmermans in that church Rolland said (the pastor) replied, "Zimmermans - you have eight to ten women in this church that were grbornen Zimmermans, probably more than any other family if you go back a few generations." This is probably as so many male children were killed in the war.
I was in Altheim in 1985. I visited the church and was entertained in the home of Johan Christian and Elizabeth Knoll, two doors up the street. I will never forget that day.

"The children on the 1870 census were his wife's children by her first marriage to William Bundy. Either the census taker mistakenly assumed that they were Warren Pierce's children or the couple misrepresented them as his children.
Gilla was divorced from William Bundy in 1863. I found the divorce record in the Vernon County Circuit Court April Term 1863, to wit May 2d 1863 - 6th day of term. The original court record book is at the Wisconsin Regional Archives in the library at the University of Wisconsin - LaCrosse. Most Mason researchers assumed that she died before 1880 since William Bundy had a different wife by that time. Gilla actually died in 1898 in Marshall County, Iowa.

Conrad Hopler - Revolutionary War soldier
Conrad Hoppler built the first bridge across the Rockaway River at Powerville. It stood a little above the spot where the upper bridge now stands, for the construction in which he received three bushels of salt. The birdge was of rude workmanship, and the salt at that time was worth from $8 to $10 a bushel. Shortly after the Revolution this same Hoppler built a dam across the river just above the bridge, and erected a small grist-mill on the west bank of the river, a few rods below the bridge. This was the first mill of any description erected in Powerville.
At Powerville the Hopler mill was known prior to 1800, and was located above the present mill. In April 1802 Conrad Hopler sold to Joseph Scott, in consideration of $950,19 acres of land and the mills (grist-mill and saw-mill), and on the 4th of March 1804 Joseph Scott sold one-half of this mill property to Benjamin Beach of Horse Pond, and the other half to his son John Scott. Benjamin Beach was the father of Dr. Columbus Beach, and was a large land-owner in and around Beach Glen, where he had a grist-mill. It stood in front of the present dwelling house on Dr. Beach's farm, and about the only visible evidence of its existence is the pond bed extending up the Glen toward Hibernia. This mill was the most convenient one to that part of the township which lies around Hibernia, Egbert's Corner, Greenville and Meriden.
