Zimerman at Gnadenhutten, Ohio 1955 February 1826 Sunday, the twenty sixth: It began to snow in the evening and continued throughout the following day until a deep snow had fallen; Then it rained, kept up through the following week with little intermission. Thus the people were hindered very much on the sugar cooking, and it was also impossible for this reason and on account of the high water and bad roads to go to Sharon. March 1826 Sunday, the fifth: This morning the two single brethren John. Ad. Seibert and Charles Peter set out on the journey to Lancaster and Lititz, the former on a visit and the later to stay. The tenth: Brother John Blickensderfer of Sharon went to Lititz on a visit. His son Friedrich and the single Benjamin v Lehn went with him to stay. The fourteenth: There occurred in Beersheba the burial of a child of a neighbor, James Berry, aged 5 weeks and 4 days. Sunday, the ninteenth: No church service could be held in Beeersheba since it rained hard again. The twenty third: Toward evening, two chiwere baptised, a little daughter of Brother and Sister Ed Edmonds, Sarah Anne, and a little daughter of Brother and Sister John Heller, Elisabeth Matilda. On the 24th to our great sorrow, the meetings on Good Friday had to be omitted because during the past night Brother Rauschenberger had an attack of severe pains in the abdomen which weakened him so that he was unable to leave the room today. It was also raining again. Sunday, the twenty sixth: On Easter Day Brother Rauschenberger had recovered to the extent that he undertook to conduct the meetings in Gnadenhutten,. two children were baptised, namely a little daughter of Brother and Sister Carl Fromk, with the name Elisabeth BArbara, and a little daughter of Joseph and Martha Knaus, with the name Rosanna Charlotte. The twenty seventh: On Easter MOnday the church service had to be omitted because Brother RAuschenberger dared not undertake to go to Sharon on foot, and the river was too high for driving. May 1826 The twenty sixth: There occurred in Sharon the funeral of the married Mary Hill. The married Mary Hill, maiden name, Kidweiler, was born in the state of Virginia in the year 1791. In year 1823 she married the now widowed William Hill. There was born to this a child, but which nwvwe saw the light of this world. She camae into this neighborhood with her family two years ago. She was often sickly since their coming, and for the last two weeks she was almost completely bedfast, and after several days of severe suffering, she departed in the evening of the 25th. Her age was about 35 years. Sunday the twenty eighth: Two children were baptised; namely a little son of James and M.O. Meyer, with the name Hiram Michael, and a little daughter of Bro. and Sr. Jacob Blickensderfer, with the name Hannah. June 1826 The second: There arrived in Beeersheba a family with whom I had already formed an acquaintance the previous fall on my visit to the neighborhood of New Lancaster. They had already been associated with the Brethren in French Switzerland; the man's name is Pierre Frederic Charpie. Since these dear people have moved into this vicinity with the purpose of entering into closer association with the Brethren's Church, it is to be wished they may also enjoy great blessing. September 1826 The sixth: Bro. Troeger conducted the funeral in Gnadenhutten of the child, Dorothea Elizabeth Blickensderfer, little daughter of Bro. and Sr. Abraham Blickensderfer. She was born April 25, 1825 and departed on the 4th of this month, aged 1 year, 4 months, and 9 days. Sunday, the tenth: The married brethren and sisters celebrated their choir festival together here in Gnadenhutten with the customary meetings and with a very blessed observance of the Lord's Supper, at which the married brethren and sisters, Peter Friederich and Henrietta Charpie, John Jacob and Elizabeth Huber, and Mary Keller were first time participants. In the evening occured the marriage of the widowed brother, Daniel Ginther to the single Barbara Walton. The fourteenth: Bro. Rauschenberger solemnized the marriage, not far from New Philadelphia, of the single John Ax to the single Mary Young. The fifteenth: He conducted the funeral, in Beeersheba, of the child John David Simmers, little son of Isaac and Ruth Simmers, aged 2 years and 11 months. He was born September 29, 1823, and died in the course of a visit to his grandparents, Bro. and Sr. Joshua Davis. Sunday, the seventeenth: It rained so hard that scarcely anyone came to the service in Gnadenhutten. We had much wet cold weather this week; also traces of fever were in evidence. Sunday, the twenty fourth: Bro. Troeger conducted the service in Sharon. Bro. Rauschenberger preached in Beersheba. The twenty ninth: Bro. Troeger conducted the funeral in Gnadenhutten of the child, Christian Immanuel From, little son of Heinrich and Salome From. October 1826 Sunday the twenty second: The older boys celebrated thrir Choir festival in Gnadenhutten with the usual meetings. As Bro. Troeger had a severe cold, Bro Rauschenberger conducted the service. After the choir address, lthe following boys were received into the choir: Joel Colver, Abraham Schemel. Isaac Blickensderferl Herman J. Fuchs, J. George Guenther, Heinrich Friederich, David Tschudy, Levi Ricksecker, Friederick Keller, Friederick Charpie, and Jacob Schemel(sonof George) Sunday, twenty ninth: Bro. Troeger set out for Werner's Valley, but since it began pouring rain at about 10 o'clock, accompanied by thunder and lightening, and continued till about one o'clock, so the church services could neither be held there nor in Gnadenhutten. November 1826 As Bro. Ruschenberger did not dare to undertake to go to Beersheba during the winter months on account of his impaired health, so it was decided for the time being to have an English sermon in Gnadenhutten every fourteen days, and to invite the English brethren and sisters to attend them. This arrangement was begun here today and as a young minister of the Episcopal Church, Price by name, has now stopped over with us on his journey to the West, so he was preaching the English sermon in Gnadenhutten by invitation. Sunday, the twelfth: Bro. Troeger preached in Gnadenhutten. Sunday, the ninteenth: Bro. Troeger preached in Sharon and baptised the little daughter of Bro. and Sr. Martin Keller. Bro. Rauschenberger preached the English sermon in Gnadenhutten. Sunday, the twenty sixth: It rained and snowed so that service could neither be help in Werner's Valley nor in Gnadenhutten.
