Other Events:

• Census: 1880, St. Louis, Missouri, USA

Notes:

Birth:
At the time of the 1880 U.S. census for St. Louis, Missouri, John was reported as both 26 and 28 years of age. At present, these conflicting data are the only evidence for John's date of birth and explains the uncertainty shown here.
     The exact spelling of "John" Mühlemann's surname has not been resolved. Apart from the questions of using an umlaut or not (ü or ue) or a double or single 'n' (mann or man), the rest of the name has been subjected to interpretation in U.S. census returns, probate court documents, newspaper obituaries and state death certificates. Variations include: Mühlemann, Mühlmann, and Mülhemann. A definitive answer may no doubt require research at the family's place of origin in Switzerland. In the meantime, I have chosen to use Mühlemann.


Census:
John Mühlemann's household appeared twice in the 1880 U.S. census of St. Louis, Missouri, on Monday, June 7 and again on Tuesday, June 8, each time visited by a different enumerator.
     John's age was recorded as either 26 or 28. His wife's age was recorded as either 23 or 24. According to the two enumerations, they were the parents of either one child, Charlotte, or of two children, Charlotte and George.
     Both enumerations showed the presence of Barbara Bamberg, a widow, age 63 (or perhaps 69), born in Switzerland, who was identified as either a mother or step-mother of the head of the household.

John married Etling, Katherine Augusta. Katherine (daughter of Etling, August Louis and Dienstbier, Margaretha) was born 17 Mar 1857, St. Louis, St. Louis County, Missouri, USA; died 27 Jan 1908, St. Louis, Missouri, USA; was buried 29 Jan 1908, St. Louis, Missouri, USA. [Group Sheet]

Other Events:

• Census: 1880, St. Louis, Missouri, USA

Notes:

Birth:
Katherine's obituary records her age at death on January 27, 1908 as 50 years, 10 months and 10 days. If this calculation is correct, she would have been born on March 17, 1857.

Died:
An obituary read:

          ________ Mayer,
nee Etlinger beloved wife of John Mayer, and our dear mother, daughter and sister passed to her eternal rest after a long period of suffering on Monday, 27 January 1908, at 8:30 a.m, at the age of 50 years, 10 months, and 10 days. Funeral on Wednesday, 29 January, at 2:00 p.m., from the family residence, 2819 Neosho Street, to St. Matthew's Cemetery. Relatives and friends are invited to attend. - The grieving family:
     John Mayer, husband.
     Marguerite Etlinger, mother.
     Geo. Muehlemann, son.
     Fred. Muehlemann, son.
     Aug. Mayer, son.
     Charlotte Bowe, nee Muehlemann, [daughter?].
     Lizzie Schmidt, nee Mayer, daughter.
     Charlotte Gerber, sister.
     Lizzie Wende, sister.
     Emilie Beyer, sister.

     The top of this newspaper clipping which contained the first name of the decease is missing, as is most of the word in the line "Charlotte Bowe, geb. Muehlemann, To_____." This is almost certainly the German word Tochter (daughter), which also appears in the next line.
