Notes
a. Note:   Carl married Charlotte Neimeyer in Germany and they had one son, Ernst. Charlotte died at age 32 and the widower Carl then married Louise Neimeier and they had eight children.
 The Maschmeyers,Knickmeyers,Niemeyers and Roescher families all stemmed from Blasheim, Kreis Luebbecke, Westfalen, Germany. Carl left Germany for America in the fall of 1881, traveling with the Neimeyers and Stokebrandts. After a 4 week ocean voyage, they landed in New York in October, 1881, and then traveled on to St. Louis. Carl Located there and got a job as a horse drawn carriage chauffer.
 After about 3 years he decided to move to the Dewitt, Nebraska area, where the Neimeyers and Stokebrandts had settled and so made arrangements to have his family come to America too. After the necessary papers were processed, Mrs. Maschmeyer with her five children and a step-son (Ernest) left Germany from Bremen on the ship Hohenzollern. They were accompanied by a Miss Bancough and a Mr Henry Maschmeyer. After a 4 week ocean voyage they landed in Boston. From there they traveled to Dewitt, Nebraska where Carl Maschmeyer met them, in about August 1884.
 Since he had not yet acquired land, they moved into a small log house occupied by a man they called "de oehle Gohl" where they lived together for some time.This house was located at the site of the present Tri-County school south of Dewitt. Later, Carl bought land southeast of Ellis where the family then moved and established a home.Carl walked many times across country from their home to the Neimeiers or vice versa, a distance of 14 miles, sometimes carrying a flour sack with food on his back.
 The family attended First Trinity Lutheran Church at its present location east of Plymouth. In the winter months with sub zero temperatures, deep snow and horse and buggy transportation, it was not easy to attend church services regularly. After Carls death, Mrs. Maschmeyer and her children organized and built the Emmaus Lutheran Church southwest of Beatrice where worship services were held for 50 years. Most of her grandchildren and some of her great grandchildren were baptized and confirmed there and a few of them married there.
 The much improved homestead is now being occupied by her grandson, Mr. Carl Maschmeier and family.[Merge file.FTW]
