KRIEGER FAMILY HERITAGE
F236
In 1795 Samuel Krieger was born in Pennsylvania as was his wife, Maria Magdalena Rauh, born there in 1798. So almost 200 years ago the parents of Samuel and Maria were in Pennsylvania. From there Samuel and Maria went to Holmes and Coshocton Cos. A son Andrew was born in Holmes Co., Ohio in 1836. Three of his sisters are known: Abigail, Katherine and Magdalena. Andrew married Maria Anna Shibler who was born in 1840 in Wayne County, Ohio, the daughter of Henry Shibler and Barbara Showalter, both from Pennsylvania. In 1843 the families came in covered wagons to Henry County, Ohio. Mary Ann Shibler and Andrew Krieger were married at St. Jacobs German Church in German Township in 1857. They had 12 children. Andrew served in the Civil War in C, 67th Regiment of Ohio Volunteers from 1862-1865.
Mary Ann was home in a log cabin taking care of their four children and kept a loaded gun by the front door for protection against Indians, animals, or strangers. On her deathbed her mind returned to that time and the warnings she gave her children that they must never touch that gun.
Andrew died in Delta in 1918 and Mary Ann in Delta in 1933. They were buried in Raker Cemetery. Their last child was Sarah Anna Dorthea Krieger, born in 1881 in Ridgeville Township. Sarah married Joseph Michael Mack in 1898. They lived in Delta and had five children: 1) Josephine m. Marion Green, 7 ch - Betty m. Robert Bushman, 2 ch.; Robert m. Evelyn Rupp, 2 ch,; Aleane m. Wilbur White, 2 ch.; William killed in WWII; Helen m. John Strubsaker, 4 ch.; John m. Kim Chang-Sin, 2 ch.; James m. Susan Conrad, 2 ch.; 2) Marion m. Elizabeth Williams, 1 ch. Joan m. Jack Weissbrod, 2 ch.; 3) Helen m. John Price, no ch., only child of Sarah still living; 4) Orville m. Ruth Fenton, 2 ch. Dana died and Michael m. Connie Gasche, 2 ch, and m. Sue DeCola; 5) Willard m. Diana Nobilli, 2 ch. Lisa m. Roger Johnson, 1 ch. and Larry Degroff; Joseph m. Linda Shoup, no ch.
Joseph and Sarah made their home in Delta on Wood Street. Young and old, friends, strays, and family congregated there, lived there, went away, returned and generally enjoyed their hospitality and sense of humor. Sarah took care of her mother, aged and in a wheel chair. Mary Ann smoked a corn cob pie occasionally. One day she had her pipe lit, the minister came to call and she slipped the pipe in the cloth pocket on the side of her wheel chair. After a while smoke started coming out and the minister had to pour his lemonade on the pipe fire. Sarah, also watched over and nursed her neighbor, Helen Platt. In 1941 she married Enterson Snyder who went to one of the early Delta schools with Joseph and Frank Mack. They eventually moved to his home on Main Street.
Just as her mother Mary Ann saw Andrew Krieger off to the Civil War so Sarah watched two sons, Orville and Willard go off in WWII. Both returned home safely from the Pacific and European Theatres. Two grandsons, Josephine’s boys Robert and William, also served with Robert returning, but William died a hero’s death as a navigator-bombardier in the Southwest Pacific. Josephine’s daughters had husbands who served also and also came home safely. We who stayed home followed the news avidly on radio, in newspapers and went to the Lyric Theatre to watch newsreels of the war. We sent boxes of goodies and bundles of letters, some V-Mail, to our servicemen. We waited for letters and sometimes received them with oblong holes cut out where the censor was busy. The hours spent in Toledo railroad stations were worth the time waiting for long overdue trains and the precious gas used when our loved ones were coming home.
The deep abiding love for this country, its freedoms, the opportunity to own homes, have families and prosper has been given to us down through the generations from our ancestors. They had to leave homes in the old country because of religious persecution, lack of opportunity and class barriers. May we succeed as well as they have.

“There’s a light in the cloud that foretokens the home,
Where storms never gather, where nights never come;
Then look up rejoicing, and sing of the love
That sends down sweet beams from the glory above,
Whatever of sorrow, our path may enshroud,
There’s always, yes always, a light in the cloud.”
