      In compiling her genealogy of the Jungermann family, Linwood (Nelson) Jungermann wrote a short biographical sketch of Meta (Jungermann) Ackerman.

           "When I asked Aunt Meta to write a short account of her life a number of years ago, this is what she gave me:

           'J. J. Ackerman was born in Madison County, Illinois, September 7, 1872. We were married in Saline County, Missouri, December 28, 1904. We lived in Audrain County until 1910 when we moved to Hoxie, Kansas. Lived there until 1947. Have been here in Genoa, Nebraska since then. I -- Meta was born April 21, 1880.'

           "This is so characteristically Meta Jungerman that it had to be included. There was never an unnecessary frill or pretension in her life. She was beautiful and full of fun in later life when I knew her and know she was even more so in her youth. He sister, Emma, said the only time she ever saw tears in her father (Christian's) eyes was when Meta and her new husband drove away after their wedding. He made the remark that Meta reminded him so much of his mother who had died so long ago in Germany.
           "Their years in Hoxie, Kansas were checkered ones. First very then [sic] the drought cycle began in the thirties. It was in the summer of 1935 that we stopped at her home, and I made her acquaintance. A sandstorm was blowing, but as she took us around to show us her home -- her garden with its windmill in the center, always pumping -- her basement with its row on row of good canned meat, fruit and vegetables -- her poultry house with its prize Wyandotte flock of hens -- the rich milk, cream, and butter from a small dairy herd, we knew this couple had nothing to fear from a hostile land. You felt the strength of the character of people who would scorn any inference that it was a hard life. A far cry from the 'Gim-me' generation of today."
