• Notes

  He was born at Hoyleton, Illinois - died Stotts City, MO. He is buried at East View Cemetery near Stotts City. He was a farmer. He married on March 24, 1889 Emma Krueger - b. Oct. 1, 1869; d. 1954. Emma, too, was born at Hoyleton, Illinois. When she was a small child, her parents Christian Henry Krueger and his wife Catherine (nee Fricke) together with other families from the Hoyleton area, moved to Lawrence Co., Mo. One of these families was that of J. August Kleeman, who had married Louise Klein after the death of Anna Marie. William and Emma were married at the home of her parents 2 mi. south of Stotts City, Mo. They then bought a farm 4 mi. NW of Stotts City, where they lived until after William's death. Their first home was a log cabin, until a new home was built. Their children were all born there. In 1940, Emma, with two of her daughters moved into Stotts City. When the families froom Washington Co., Illnois, first went to Mo., they built an Evangelical Church and established a German School. However, when William and Emma were married, their farm was 3/4 mi. from a Methodist Church and 1/2 mi. from the Pleasant Hill Public School. Travel being slow then, all the children were brought up in this church and attended the school nearby. There were nine children.
