Detail Source of Information
Born:
Sept. 8, 1850
Her obituary said she was born Sept. 8, 1850 in Stedeznier. Otto's Bible said she was born in Stedrysier (Otto was her son). [I found Studeznier on an 1849 Prussian map; it was in the southern portion of the Netze River drainage area, south of Budzin, SE of Gramsdf., NE of the city of Posen.].
Parents:
likely Jacob Martin Wichner and Ms. Mittelstaedt
A letter on Sept. 20, 1961 from Adaline Tagatz to her sister Evaline said that her research found that Jacob Martin Wichner and Anna Dorothea Mittelstaedt were Maria Juliana Wichner's parents. An undated contradictory note, also written by Adaline, said that Mary Mittelstaedt was Maria's mother.

Adaline Tagatz wrote: "Johann Ludwig Schubert made his home at the home of Jakob Martin Wichner and Mary (Mittelstaedt) Wichner, the parents of his future wife, and worked at different places until he had the indebtedness paid off of the funds advanced for his emigration to U.S.A."

Marriage:
Married to Johann Ludwig Schubert on Feb. 22 or 23, 1870
Maria Julianna Schubert's obituary said that she was married to Mr. John Ludwig Schubert by Rev. Alwart on Feb. 23, 1870. A transcription online of the Marquette County Pre-1907 Marriages on rootsweb.com said that Johann Ludwig Schubert married Julia Wichner on Feb. 22, 1870 (Vol. 1, Pg. 120, Certificate #770). The two sources are one day apart.

The 1870 Census said that Julia married her husband Lewis in Feb. 1870 (see census entry below).

Child 1:
Julius Heinrich Schubert
aka Henry
b. July 29, 1872 or in 1873;
d. May 28, 1943
Julius Heinrich Schubert was born July 29, 1872 at 4 a.m. on a Monday in Dakota township (Waushara Co., WI). He died of heart failure on May 28, 1943 in Waushara Co., WI. [SOURCES: His birth information was on a Bible leaflet referenced by Russell Williams; other information from family notes.]

Notes left by Evaline Tagatz said: "Julius Henry (Heinrich) Schubert, born July 29, 1872, died 1943 (not married). (His gravestone says 1873 which is incorrect.).. [He] worked on farms and invented useful articles and machinery. He could play a violin (fiddle). After he heard a tune he could play it. He had very little schooling. They lived so far from the schoolhouse - in fall and spring he had to stay home and help his father on the farm, and in the winter it was difficult to walk so far in the cold over the snow banks."

Henry appears as age 7 on the 1880 Federal Census as living with his parents (see census details).

The 1930 Federal Census in Richford, Waushara Co., WI, says Henry J. Schubert (age 47, single) was a hired man living with Emil R. Denna [or Dennu] (age 45, farmer) and Emil's wife Martha E. (age 46) and son Ervin E. (age 7).

The 1905 Wisconsin Census has Herman (age 25), Millie (age 20), Ida Fietz (sister-in-law) and Frank (age 8, adopted son). [SOURCE: Russell Williams]
Herman appears in the 1880 census as age under 1 year and in the 1900 census as age 19 (born Sept. 1879) living with his parents (see census detail).
Family notes also say he married Emily (or Emilie) "Minnie" Alberta Fietz on Apr. 13 or 15, 1903 in Neshkoro, Marquette Co., WI. Emily was born July 17, 1883 or 1884 and died Dec. 8, 1960 in Milwaukee (her parents were Albertina Dotzauer Dahlke FIETZ and Julius Fietz; they supposedly came to the U.S. in 1853 from the Warta River area/Posen [the census records I've found do not confirm this immigration year]). Herman lived in Hales Corners and had at least five children.
The 1910 Federal Census in Richford, Waushara County, WI, shows Herman Schubert as head of household. He was the right age to be Johann Ludwig's son. Herman (age 30, born in Wis., parents born in Germany, farmer, married 7 years, on his first marriage). He was living with:
  • wife Emilie (age 25, had two children with two living in 1910, married 7 years, on her first marriage, born in Wis., parents born in Germany)

Interment was in Highland Cemetery. The family was said to be members of the Whitnall Park Lutheran Church.

Son Allen: A newspaper clipping obit (undated & source unlabeled) in my files says that Lt. Allen H. Schubert (age 26, Hales Corners) died in an automobile accident at Monterey, CA. He was a Navy Air Corps officer who was made a full lieutenant about three weeks before he died. He was stationed at a Navy post graduate school at Monterey. He was born in Hales Corners, attended Boys' Technical High School and enlisted in the Navy Air Corps in 1943. He served 18 months at Guam during World War II and received an ensign's commission at the Pensacola, Florida, base. Survivors: his parents (Mr. and Mrs. Fred Schubert in Hales Corners), brother Elmer Schubert (Milwaukee), brother Erwin Schubert (Hales Corners), Alvin Schubert (Hales Corners) and a sister Mrs. Anita Krumsee (Hales Corners). His body was to arrive in Milwaukee where services were to be conducted by the Borgwardt Funeral Home at Highland Memorial Park Cemetery (town of New Berlin, Waukesha County).

He moved back to Pipe, purchased and operated a grocery store until his retirement in 1947. [SOURCE: Obituary published in the Fond du Lac Commonwealth Reporter in Fond du Lac, WI on Aug. 28, 1968]

Russell Williams wrote that Otto S. Schubert was baptized at the Westfield Lutheran Church on Oct. 2, 1883. Sponsors were G. Schubert, Julius Rux and Emilie Mittelstedt.

d. Mar. 12, 1935
Family notes say she was born Feb. 20, 1885 in Richford, Waushara Co., WI, on Freitag, halb 8 Morgen (Friday morning). Russell Williams wrote that Alvina/Alvine Bertha Schubert was baptized at the Westfield Lutheran Church on Mar. 27, 1885. Sponsors were Maria Kroll, Julius Rux and Friedrich Brizke.

Alvena was shown in the 1900 and 1905 census living with her parents (see census details).


Alwine Bertha Schubert married Emil Hermann Strohschein (or Stroeschein) on Aug. 21, 1906 in Westfield, Marquette Co., WI [Vol. 3, pg. 231]. Emil was born Mar. 15, 1882, and died Mar. 12, 1935 in the Town of Coloma, WI. Family notes say she had no children. Russell Williams wrote that her husband was the son of Johan and Justine (Roehlke) Strohashein [as is common in many records, surname spellings are inconsistent].

Fran Sprain wrote about the Stroschein family in her book Places and Faces in Marquette County, Wis. - Vol. II. It said that Emil was age 3 when he came to America with his 5-year-old sister Augusta, their mother Justina and Justina's mother (surname Pehlke). Emil's father, John, checked out America first in 1882. John was a carpenter and cobbler. They settled east of Fenner Lake in Marquette County. Justina was a seamstress. John and Justina had more children in Wisconsin - Robert and William. Emil was a streetcar conductor in Milwaukee, a farmer in Coloma and a storekeeper in Packwaukee. Fran's book includes more details about how the Stroschein family lived.


The 1910 Federal Census in Packwaukee, Marquette Co., WI, showed Alvina (age 25, married 3 years, no children, born in Wis., parents born in Germany) living with:
  • husband Emmil H. Strohschein (hard to read age but could be 28, retail grocery merchant, immigrated in 1885, born in Germany)

Family notes say Ernst was born in Nov. 12, 1887 in Richford, Waushara Co., WI, at 9 uhr Sonabend (Saturday). He never married.

Earnest E. Schubert's tombstone in the Richford Cemetery, Waushara Co., WI, said he lived from 1887-1900. [SOURCE: Cemetery transcription by Wayne Guyant in 1977]

Immigration:
1856
The 1910 and 1920 census forms say that she immigrated in 1856 (see census entries below). Her obituary says she came to America when she was "still an infant, three years old" when her family settled on a farm near Crystal Lake. One family note says she came to America when she was about eight years old. I'm inclined to put more weight on the census data since the 1856 date would have come directly from Maria or her husband.

Maria Juliana Wichner's obituary says that she died Mar. 1, 1927 and was buried Mar. 4, 1927. It also said that she had been a resident of Westfield for 27 years, and on Mar. 18, 1864 she was confirmed and became a member of the Lutheran Church.

She shares a tombstone in the Richford Cemetery, Waushara Co., WI, with her husband. It said: Mother M. Julianna Schubert - 1850-1927. [SOURCE: Cemetery Transcription by Wayne Guyant in 1977]

Notes left by Adaline Tagatz say that Julia died of dropsy (a weak heart) and complications of old age and didn't have a white hair on her head. She said Julia's hair was very thin, still being light brown when she died.
