Ezekiel George


This time my research has been dedicated to Mr. Ezekiel George who was born in about 1816, in Tennessee. So far, I have had no success in finding out a record of who Ezekiel George's parents were.

When exactly he came to Texas, it is not known to me either.
In 1841, a man by the name of Ezekiel George was declared a bankrupt in April 1841.

Clipping source: Cruger & Moore. Telegraph and Texas Register (Houston, Tex.), Vol. 6, No. 29, Ed. 1, Wednesday, June 16, 1841, newspaper, June 16, 1841; Houston, Texas.

Was he the Ezekiel George born in about 1817? He would have been about 24 then. Later records from 1850, read that there was another man in Wharton, TX whose name was Ezekiel George as well. (1). However, he was born in about 1770. Perhaps, the latter was the father of the younger Ezekiel? In 1841, the older Ezekiel would have been about 71.

Coming back to "our" Ezekiel, born in 1817.
On 3 October 1843, the man married Martha Amanda Winfree Boman (Bomal?), born on 26 June 1826 in Anson, NC. She was the daughter of  Charles Jordan Winfree and Nancy Ann Flake. The marriage was registered in Columbus, Colorado, Texas (2, 3).


Children born to the couple:

🔹 Laura Jane - born on 21 January 1844/ died on 27 October 1921, Elgin, Kane, Illinois
🔹 Martha Anna - born in 1846/ died  on 21 August 1878.


🏡 The 1845 and 46 Census records place Ezekiel George in Richmond, Fort Bend, TX (4.5). In 1845, the man owned 150 cattle and 19 horses.

After the death of the first wife, on 27 December 1847, Ezekiel married Caroline Head nee Davis. born in about 1817 in Alabama, Fort Bend Land District, TX (6). She was the daughter of Mr. Kincheon Davis and Frances Pleasants, a sister of William Kinchen Davis, mentioned in one of my previous posts.

Children born to Ezekiel and Caroline:

🔹 Charles Robert - born on 10 Oct 1847, Wharton/ died on 02 Jul 1938, Richmond, Fort Bend, TX
🔹 Albert Lamar - born on 1848/ died on 15 September 1896.

A misfortune happened in February 1849. The land deed granted to Ezekiel George got lost.

Two more children were born to Ezekiel and his wife:
🔹 Oscar Ezekiel - born in 1850
🔹 Mary Ellen - born in September 1851/died on 31 December 1935, San Antonio.

When Caroline died, I do not know.On 28 November 1854, in Fort Bend, Ezekiel married for the third time. His third wife was Caroline Elizabeth Laws (7).

According to the Archives - Ezekiel's third wife's name was Lizzy Lamar George (?).

👉 According to the tax records from 1854 - Ezekiel had 50 acres worth $200 in Richmond, Fort Bend, TX. The land was originally granted to Barrett and Harris (8).

S for Sioux


Sioux in Poland? It was a restaurant chain and one of its places used to operate in the city where I lived. The food was great there. The menu included a variety of different types of dishes, however, its main part was the Pol-Mex meals. Pol-Mex = meaning Mexican food made in a Polish way. 


The names on the menu were typical for the Mexican type of food, but they had not much in common with the Tex-Mex cooking, besides the ingredients. As I said, it was all delicious.

Another thing that I liked there was the interior. The restaurant had two floors, with western-like furniture, lamps and other decorations. Booths that looked like wagons were downstairs and saloon-type furniture upstairs. The walls were decorated with murals and photograph of Native Americans. 

The restaurant waiters were friendly and helpful. It was a really nice place to be regarding all sorts of meetings, and simply to have good and not too expensive food.

There was another Sioux place in a nearby city, Sopot. The menu offer was equally tasty there, but the restaurant was much smaller than our favorite spot in Gdynia.
 

The chain headquarters used to be in Poznań, a city in central Poland. More than a decade ago, my mom and I happened to visit Poznań. Then, we also went to their local Sioux place. To our great disappointment, their food was awful. You could think it should have been the opposite, considering the fact that the chain executives were so close. Well, maybe that was a sign that something wrong was going on and that was why the chain did not last.

When we came back to Poland, regrettably, we learned that our favorite Sioux place in Gdynia (+ most of them in the country) had been closed.
 

 
PS

Google says that the restaurant still operates in only two cities in Poland.

"My Polish Alphabet" is about things, places, and people that come to my mind when I think about Poland.

About Weather

If you dread this week's weather forecast, check out this piece of news about the weather conditions in Pueblo, Colorado, in August 1897. At least, it is winter now, not summer.

Clipping source: Ousley, Clarence. Galveston Tribune. (Galveston, Tex.), Vol. 17, No. 231, Ed. 1 Monday, August 16, 1897, newspaper, August 16, 1897; Galveston, Texas.

The weather has always happened to be unpredictable and capricious. In the old days, it was as it was, but nobody blamed it on the climate change.

One Thomas Bradley

This article caught my attention because of the surname Bradley in it. It is one of the family lines in our ancestry. However, that Thomas Bardley mentioned in the clipping lived in Yorkshire, England, not in the US.

Clipping source: Cruger & Moore. Telegraph and Texas Register (Houston, Tex.), Vol. 5, No. 40, Ed. 1, Wednesday, July 29, 1840, newspaper, July 29, 1840; Houston, Texas. (https://texashistory.unt.edu/ark:/67531/metapth48097/: accessed December 29, 2024), University of North Texas Libraries, The Portal to Texas History, https://texashistory.unt.edu; crediting The Dolph Briscoe Center for American History.

Reading the piece, I thought,  "I wonder how long he lived."

The condition described as "falling into a sleep" was probably a coma caused by some sort of brain aneurysm or another neurological condition. If it had need the previous, the bleeding would haved reoccurred again and again and/or finally, brought death.

I tried to find out more about Thomas, but not much luck with it.

Baby Thomas was christened in Huddersfield, Yorkshire, England, on 25 December 1817 (1).

Besides that, there is different data regarding various men by the name of Thomas Bradley who lived in England. 

Considering, the area where the family lived (Huddersfield, West Yorkshire) and his condition mentioned in the 1840 newspaper, I assume the young man did not live long. That is why the death record registered on 4 August 1846, in Caverley, Yorkshire, England, would probably be related to the family members mentioned in the above article. If that was so, "our" Thomas Bradley passed at the age of 28.

On the other hand, there is a census record from Huddersfield, Yorkshire of 1840. The data informs that a Thomas Bradley, born in 1817, was a lodger and lived in Leighton (Huddersfield, Yorkshire) in 1861 (2). So, perhaps, he lived longer despite all odds. Or, maybe not, who knows.


PS

Google info says that Leighton is a hamlet in North Yorkshire. Perhaps there was another one near Huddersfield, West Yorkshire?

Good Tidings To You

During the year, while doing all the research dedicated to the dear departed ones, I often had a thought, "Perhaps, I should spend more time with the living". 

The season came to do so (which brings less of my online activity here).

The holiday period has been very busy in a nice way - with cooking, baking, season's meetings, visiting, tasting delicatessens made in somebody else's kitchen, and Christmas caroling. I do enjoy it all even when it makes me a bit tired.

In 2025, I am planning to reactivate my corners of the Internet and create some more posts, regarding our direct ancestors and non-relations as well. My plan is also to continue my two Alphabet and "They Lived in Texas" series, among others. How I will manage, the time will show.


Wishing all our close and distant relations, friends and acquaintances, and last but not least, the followers of my Internet pages, who kindly spare their time to read my posts - a blessed holiday season and a prosperous New Year, with good days only.

Good tidings to you all!

Johanna Leutbacher Rosenbusch & Family

Finally, I am coming back with another post related to the Leutbacher family.

Louise Leutbecher, her husband Gottlieb Rosenbusch, and their 3 children must have arrived in Texas by October 1882 as their 4th child, daughter Mary, was born on 1 October 1882, in Fredericksburg. 

The youngest children who were born in Germany:

Johanna, born on 8 September 1874,
Robert, on 22 December 1876,
Wilhelm, born on 25 June 1878.

I did not find any immigration records for the Rosenbusch family. However, there is a record of a Gottlieb Rosenbaum (?), a piano manufacturer, who came to New York on 19 March 1881. He traveled from Antwerp in Belgium on the ship Waesland (1).
Perhaps, in America, Gottlieb might have changed his family name from Rosenbaum to Rosenbusch (?). I have come across a family tree in which Gottlieb's father's name is given as Johann (John) Gottlieb Rosenbaum and mother's was Anne Christine Stibbe (2).


👉 1882 - At the beginning of his life in Texas, Gottlieb had 2 horses/mules and 2 head of cattle (3).

1 October 1882 - daughter Mary was born to Gottlieb and Louise in Fredericksburg.

👉 1883 - he owned 160 acres of land (by preemption) and 240 acres of school land (4).

Three years later, on15 June 1886, Elise was born to the family.

4 December 1891 - the youngest son, David Karl was born. On the same day his mother, ♦ Louise Rosenbusch passed away  in Fredericksburg.

👉 1893 - Gottlieb rendered 160 acres + 270 which originally belonged to Mr. Leutbacher  + Gottlieb himself. Gottlieb had 1 carriage, 4 horses/mules and 6 head of cattle (5).

20 April 1895 - 20 year-old Johanna married Bernhard Friedrich (6), born on 9 December 1871.


👉 1895 - Gottlieb owned 240 acres worth $360, 1 carriage, 5 horses, 5 head of cattle.
Mary E Rosenbusch had 60 acres worth $500 (7).

👉 1896 - Gottlieb paid taxes for 240 acres + 48 3/4 acres, 5 horses, 5 head of cattle, 1 carriage, and 40 tools (8).

30 October 1897 - Robert married Miss Lina Scott (9). She was born on 9 February 1881, in Mason, Mason, TX. Her parents were Sevanty V. Scott and Katrhina Degel.

👉 1897 - Gottlieb owned 240 acres of land (worth $360) + 48 3/4 (preesuption), worth $240, 5 horses, 8 head of cattle, 1 hog, and 35 tools (10).


1 October 1898 - Gottlieb remarried. His second wife was Catharine Gonzales (11).


👉 1898 - Gottlieb owned 48 3/4 acres of land (worth $240), 4 horses, 5 head of cattle, 25 sheep, and a dog (12). Robert had 240 acres of land that previously belonged to his father and mother, 3 horses, and 2 head of cattle.

1899 - the year of mourning in the family.
♦ 1 April 1899 - Johanna Rosenbusch Friedrich, the oldest daughter of Gottlieb's died.
♦ 29 April - her husband Bernhard Friedrich passed as well.
♦ 7 June - Gottlieb Rosenbusch left this world.

👍 1899 - Gottlieb's tax record: he owned 48 3/4 acres, 5 horses/mules, 8 head of cattle, 5 sheep, 1 wagon (worth#35), and 60 tools. His son, William owned 66 acres, and son Robert had 240 acres, 2 horses/mules, 2 head of cattle, 1 wagon (worth $40), and 40 tools (13).


After the passing of  Louise and Gottlieb, their youngest (unmarried) children lived in various places in Justice Precinct #4, Gillespie, TX.

👉 Census 1900 -
  • Mary, age 17, lived with Mr. Henry Keyser's family where she worked as a servant (14).
  • David Karl, age 8, was raised by Heinrich Friedrich (15) and his wife Mary Magdalene (Justice Precinct #4, Gillespie)
  • Elise, age 13, lived at the home of her brother's Robert and his wife Lena (16).
  • Wilhelm, age 22, lived and worked at Mr. Dietrich Rode, a stock farmer, and his wife Katharine's. Wilhelm was a farm laborer (17).
5 June 1902 - 19-year-old Mary married her brother-in-law, Mr. Charles Friedrich (18). He was the son of Heinrich Friedrich and Maria Magdalene Hohmann, born on 25 March 1880, in Doss, TX.

20 September 1906, 28-year-old Willie married Miss Emma Ahrens (20), the daughter of Heinrich Hermann Christian Ahrens and Sophia Catharine Moellering. Emma, 10 years younger than Willhelm, was born on 8 January 1888 in Texas.


♦ 12 June 1902 - Lena, Robert's wife, passed.

Robert remarried on 26 December 1907. His second wife was Miss Anna Emma Petsch  (21). She was born on  1 April 1882, in Gillespie, TX, to Peter Poetsch and Louise Fritz.


👉 WW1 time - the Rosenbusch brothers were drafted. David on 6 May 1917, Robert and Wilhelm on 12 September 1918 (22,23,24).




Only David, a single man then, did the WW1 service. He was enlisted on 25 May 1918 and assigned to the 28 Company, 7 Battalion , 165th Department Brigade. He served with the unit until 15 July 1918. Next, Private Rosenbusch was transferred to Company A, 142nd Infantry.

Private David Rosenbusch, serial number 3060506, served in Europe from 31 July 1918 to 31 May 1919. The man was slightly wounded on 10 October 1918. He was honorably discharged (on demobilization) on 16 June 1919. At that time, he was 15% disabled (24,25).



6 January 1920 - David Karl married Miss Cora Anna Weinheimer (27), the daughter of Anton Weinheimer and Christine Heep, born to them on 14 November 1899.

 

A tragic accident took Robert from this world. The man was lethally injured, he died 12 days later, ♦ on 27 January 1930. Robert Rosenbusch lived 54 years, 1 month, and 3 days (28).
