Immigration:
According to family lore, Simon, a tailor by trade, emigrated from Lippe when he was about 17 years old, in 1842. He sojourned briefly in St. Louis, Missouri, surviving the city's cholera epidemic of 1844 and later moved on to Warren County, Missouri. It is understood that at least one brother was also in Warren County and that he may have moved on to the area around Bowling Green, Missouri. In both the 1900 and 1910 U. S. Census, Ernst, as he is name there, was recorded as having immigrated to the USA in 1847. The exact date of his immigration requires confirmation.

Christina proceeded her husband in death. His death certificate, issued in 1912, identifies him as a widower.

Notes:

Married:
Simon married two sisters, Theresa and Christina. Their surname appears as either Springer, Springel, or Sprenger. The exact spelling of the surname remains to be confirmed. The 1860 U.S. Census enumeration shows two children in the household who do not appear in subsequent census returns: John Winter, age 3 (born about 1856-57) and Christina Winter, age 1 (born about 1858-59). These names are also not included in genealogical reports from other researchers. It is not known at this time if these are children of Simon and Christina who died in infancy or were only temporary members of the household in 1860.
