  Letters from America. Some letters from America, sent back home to family in their native land at Horn, Limburg, Netherlands, were written by Petronella Timmermans-Engels, her husband Peter Engels, and Simon Timmermans (who was likely a first cousin of Peter Engels). They were published in a Dutch newspaper on June 20, 1863, and may be found online at Irma Lommen-Salden's Limburg Emigrant Page (offsite link).      The letters are stated as being written to Mathis Timmermans, who is named as Simon's father, but Matthijs [Matthias] Timmermans was his brother and Willem/Wilhelmus [William] Timmermans was their father: the greeting of one letter from Simon Timmermans is "Dearest Parents, Father, Mother, Brother and Sister-in-law," and these would be his father, who was William Timmermans; his mother, Christina Engels, his brother, Matthias Timmermans; and his sister-in-law, Anna Maria Opstal, who all would emigrate from the Netherlands in 1863 to join Simon Timmermans and other relations who had preceded them to America. They settled in Menominee Township, Jo Daviess County, Illinois, where in 1870 William and Christina Timmermans's household was listed in the U.S. Census immediately before the households of their sons, next was Matthias's household, and then was Simon's household.      Peter Engels and his wife Petronella Timmermans also settled in the area of Menominee in Jo Daviess County, Illinois, which is directly south of Grant County, Wisconsin. Peter Engels, who died in 1865, was buried at Menominee. Two children are mentioned in the letters: Katrijn [Katherine] and Nel [Petronella]. In one of the letters, Peter Engels sends greetings especially to his sister Klara [Clara] Engels. Klara had married Petrus Timmermans, a brother of Peter Engels's wife Petronella. By 1880, Clara (Engels) Timmermans herself also emigrated to the United States, where in 1880 she was living in Grant County, Wis., with her son Mathias.      In one letter Petronella Timmermans-Engels sends greetings from Lambert Lutters and his wife (Christina Gubbels) and says they "have not been at J. Gubbels." Both the Lutters and Gubbels families had left Horn for the United States in 1862, coming to America on the same ship, Plymouth Rock, which arrived in New York City on May 15, 1862, from London, England. The Lutters family farmed in Dunleith Township, Jo Daviess County, Ill., and Lambert and Christina Lutters, who died in 1883 and 1897 respectively, were both buried at Menominee.      J. Gubbels was Jan [Johannes/John] Gubbels, who with wife Matina [Martha] Pijls and children left Horn for the United States in 1862, and they first settled in Jamestown Township, Grant County, Wis., just to the north of Jo Daviess County, Ill. The family consisted of John and Martha Gubbels and five sons: Peter, Jacob, Matthias, John, and William. The last son William was born in Wisconsin, the others were all born in the Netherlands. In 1874, the Gubbels family moved on to Shelby County, Iowa. There John Gubbels died in 1880, and his wife Martha died in 1907; they were buried there in St. Boniface Cemetery at Westphalia.      John Gubbels and Christina Gubbels [Mrs. Lambert Lutters] were brother and sister, children of Jacobus [Jakob/Jacob] Gubbels and Anna Engels.      Matthias and Simon Timmermans were first cousins to John Gubbels and Christina Gubbels (Mrs. Lambert Lutters), through the Engels family. Matthias and Simon's mother, Christina Engels (Mrs. William Timmermans), was a sister to Anna Engels (Mrs. Jacob Gubbels), the mother of John and Christina. Christina and Anna Engels were daughters of Simon Engels and Christina Vermeulen.      Peter Engels, husband of Petronella Timmermans, was also a first cousin to Matthias and Simon Timmermans and to John Gubbels and Christina (Gubbels) Lutters: his father Cornelius Engels was a brother of Christina and Anna Engels. It should be noted that Petronella Timmermans, wife of Peter Engels, through the Timmermans family was a 3rd cousin once removed to Matthias and Simon Timmermans, sons of William. That she refers to William Timmermans as uncle in the letters is only because because her husband Peter Engels was a nephew to him and his wife Christina Engels.      Kristiaan Hendriks [Christian Hendricks] is mentioned in a letter also (a request was made to bring a winter coat); he too would leave Horn, Limburg, Netherlands, in 1863, with his wife Gertrude Leenen and their children, and the Hendricks family also settled in Grant County, Wis., in Hazel Green Township. Christian Hendricks was a son of Andreas and Beatrix (Timmermans) Hendrix and a first cousin of Petronella Timmermans-Engels. T.L. See Engels, Lutters, Gubbels, Timmermans for more about these families, who are descendants of Simon and Christinne (Vermeulen) Engels.

Willem, a coachman, married Marie Demontreuil on March 14, 1870 [1878?], at Roermond, Limburg, Netherlands. Marie was born on March 1, 1851, at Compiegne, daughter of Alexander Nicolaas and Sophie Victorie (Dupuis) Demontreuil.

• Pieter Hubert Timmermans was born on March 13, 1850, in Horn, Limburg, Netherlands, son of Petrus and Clara (Engels) Timmermans. He died on July 1, 1851, in Horn.

• Peter Hubert Timmermans was born on February 26, 1852, in Horn, Limburg, Netherlands, son of Petrus and Clara (Engels) Timmermans. Peter Timmermans emigrated from the Netherlands to the United States ca. 1880.* Peter Timmerman married Mary (?) Haase** on February 9, 1886, in Jo Daviess County, Illinois. Mary [?] was born on April 23, 1842, in Germany, and at the age of 25 years came to America, ca. 1867.***
  * = Peter H. Timmermans is mentioned in On Their Shoulders by Mildred Freese. Mildred's mother, Laura (Timmerman) Klaas recalled going with Grandma Marie [Maria "Mary" (Op 't Roodt) Timmermans, to visit "old Uncle Pete Timmerman" [who was a brother-in-law to Grandma Marie] stating he arrived in Kieler earlier than she. In actuality Peter Timmermans arrived about the same time, and probably just after: the 1900 census has him arriving in the U.S. in 1880, and his 1930 obituary states he lived on a farm in Kieler for the last 50 years [since 1880]; Mary arrived with her husband Matt in the U.S. in 1879, and they were included in the 1880 U.S. Census in Jamestown Township, Grant Co., Wis., while Peter is not.
  ** = or Haas. The family surname evidently has dropped the final e over time.
  *** = according to a death notice appearing in the Dubuque Daily Times-Journal on Mon., Oct. 30, 1916.
        Mary was the widow of Frank Haase, whom she had married in 1871. Frank and Mary Haase had seven children: Lawrence, Joseph, Charles, Anton, Adam, Ludwina, and Andrew. Frank Haase himself was a widower when he married Mary, and he had 10 children from his previous marriage with Margaret [?]: John, Catherine, Godfried, Elizabeth, Francis, Dora, Gertrude, William, Margaret, and Fred.
        Peter and Mary Timmerman lived at Kieler, Wisconsin, where they farmed. They had two children: Peter H. Timmerman (born March 25, 1887, in Kieler; married Christina Folmer) and Sophia Timmerman (born July 16, 1893*; married Edward Dalsing, a widower).
  * = Sophia's place of birth is given as New York City in her obituary, but that seems to be erroneous; it also states she came to Kieler with her parents at the age of three (ca. 1896). The 1900 U.S. Census gives her place of birth as Wisconsin, which would seem correct, and both her parents were certainly living in Kieler long before 1896.
        In 1900, according to that year's census, the Timmerman household in Jamestown Township, Grant County, Wisconsin, consisted of Peter Timmerman, age 48, farmer; his wife Mary, age 58; Luttie [Ludwina Haas], age 23; Adam [Haas], age 18, farm laborer; Peter [Timmerman], age 13; and Sophia [Timmerman], age 7.

  Mrs. Timmerman Dies as Result of Fall.
  Mrs. Mary Timmerman passed away Monday morning, October 30, 1916, at 12:10 o'clock at the family residence at Kieler, Wisconsin, her death resulting from a fall she sustained last Tuesday (October 24).
        The funeral was held Wednesday morning, November 1, at Kieler, from the Immaculate Conception church at 10 o'clock, with interment in the church cemetery.

  Peter Timmerman died suddenly at his home Wednesday morning, May 28, 1930, in Kieler, Wisconsin. Funeral services were held Friday morning, May 30, at 9 o'clock, at Immaculate Coception Catholic Church in Kieler, and he was buried in the church cemetery, where the family surname on the gravestone is given as Timmermans.
        He was survived by a son, Peter H. Timmerman, and a daughter, Mrs. Edward Dalsing, both of Kieler, Wis.; eight grandchildren; and six step-children, Lawrence, Joseph, Charles, Anton, and Adam Haas, and Mrs. Bernard Berning.

• Christina Hubertina Timmermans was born on January 3, 1854, in Horn, Limburg, Netherlands, daughter of Petrus and Clara (Engels) Timmermans. Christina emigrated from the Netherlands to America.
        In 1880, Christina was listed as a daughter in the household of Mathias Timmerman, in Paris Township, Grant Co., Wis., but that was an obvious error; she was a sister; also in the household was Clara Timmerman, mother of Mathias and of Christina. Christina was listed as doing housework in Mathias Timmerman's household.

• Elisabeth Hubertina Timmermans was born on January 7, 1856, in Horn, Limburg, Netherlands, daughter of Petrus and Clara (Engels) Timmermans. She died January 23, 1856, in Horn.

She married Frederick Johann Klaas* on August 6, 1895, in Grant County, Wisconsin. Frederick Klaas was born on April 21, 1867, at Kieler, in Jamestown Township, Grant Co., Wisconsin, son of Johann Herman and Susanna Adelheid (Wibben) Klaas. Fred Klaas's first wife, Margaretha Barbara Burbach and their child Johann Nikolaus Klaas died in 1894. Margaretha was born July 12, 1872, daughter of Nicholas and Christina (Heim) Burbach. Margaret (Burbach) Klaas died on January 24, 1841, and she was buried in Immaculate Conception Cemetery at Kieler, Wisconsin.
   * = Frederick John Anthony Klaas
         Fred Klaas's occupation was listed as carpenter in the 1900 U.S. Census, and his 1934 obituary states that he was employed as a carpenter contractor the last 50 years. Fred and Clara Klaas lived at Louisburg in Jamestown Township, Grant County, Wisconsin. They were members of Immaculate Conception Catholic Church in Kieler, Wisconsin, and Clara was a member of the church's Ladies Sodality.

         The body was taken to the home in Louisburg, from where the funeral services were held Saturday morning at 9 o'clock to the Immaculate Conception church in Kieler, Wisconsin, at 9:30 o'clock. Burial was in the adjoining cemetery.
         He was survived by his widow, Mrs. Clara Timmerman Klaas, and the following daughters and sons: Aloys Klaas, of Pine Knob, Wis.; Raymond Klaas, Frederick Klaas, Jr., Vincent Klaas, and Alice Klaas, all of Louisburg, Wis.; Joseph Klaas, of Crandon, Wis.; Karl Klaas, of Dubuque, Ia.; Mrs. Marcella Wills, of Cuba City, Wis.; Mrs. Ida Welp, of East Dubuque, Ill.; Matthew Klaas and Mrs. Laura Freese, of Galena, Ill.; Mrs. Lydia Kuhle, of Sinsinawa, Wis.; Sister Clarissa, of Howard, S.

2. Nicholas Timmerman* was born on October 12, 1879, en route to America from the Netherlands, son of Mathias and Maria "Mary" (Op 't Roodt) Timmerman.
   * = Curiously Nicholas Timmerman is not listed in the 1880 U.S. census in the Mathias and Mary Timmerman's household, but he does appear in the 1900 U.S. Census, listed as a son of Mary Timmerman, born October 1879 (and, puzzlingly, he was listed as having just arrived in the United States in 1900, according to that census).
         Nicholas moved about the country, married in Minneapolis, Minnesota, in 1918, and eventually moved to California.

   Nicholas Timmerman died on September 24, 1945, in Los Angeles County, California.*
   * = Mary Timmerman's 1933 death notice lists one of her sons as Mr. Timmerman, of Los Angeles, California, and online California death records list Nicholas Timmerman, born October 12, 1879, died September 24, 1945, whose mother's maiden name was "Uptebrook," evidently a corruption of his mother's name.

3. Peter J. Timmerman was born on January 26, 1882, in Jamestown Township, Grant County, Wisconsin, son of Mathias and Maria "Mary" (Op 't Roodt) Timmerman. He married Rose Ann Hauser in 1906. They lived in Paris Township, Grant County, Wisconsin.

Known also by her middle given name of Christina**, Louis C. Timmerman married Charles Byrne. Charles Byrne was born in April 1863 in Wisconsin, son of John and Bridget [?] Byrne. Charles and Louise Byrne lived at Cuba City, Wisconsin.
   * = January 17 is her date of birth as given in an online SSDI; her obituary gave her date of birth as January 27.
   ** = listed as Christina in both the 1880 and 1990 U.S. censuses; she was also referred to as Christina Byrne in her mother's 1933 death notice and as Christine in her brother Peter's 1960 obituary; her name evidently is given as Louise in the 1910 U.S. census, and her own obituary gives her name as Louise C. Byrne, and the SSDI index gives her name as Louise.

Deluge swamps southwest Wisconsin; Rain might have played role in death of farmer. Weekend rains could have contributed to the drowning death of a farmer in rural Cuba City, Wis., while swelling tri-state-area creeks and rivers well beyond their banks. Anthony P. Timmerman, 42, was reported missing at 8:21 p.m. Sunday on his farm at 2576 Grant County H, in Jamestown Township. Timmerman was located after an extensive search and recovery operation by the Grant County dive team. He was pronounced dead at the scene by the Grant County Coroner's Office.       Authorities believe water backing into the farm might have indirectly contributed to Timmerman's death. The Grant County Sheriff's Department has not yet released details of the accident, but a National Weather Service report of floodwater impacts suggests Timmerman fell into a holding tank he was trying to repair because of nearby flood waters.
