Living in Carlisle, Noble Co., OH in May 2001.
Records conflict on date of death:
1) Delores Snider, citing church records of St. Mary of the Immacuate Conception in Fulda, Noble Co., OH, gives 6 Jun 1912.
2) Linda Kay Anderson, citing "AHistory of the Smithberger Family in America" gives 12 Jun 1913.
Records also conflict on year of birth: most sources give 1819, but the 1900 census says Sep 1817.In 1850, 30 year old German-born farrmer John Smithberger lived in Elk Twp., Monroe County, Ohio with his wife Hannah (27) and children William (5), Peter (3), Mary (2), and Caroline (4 months). The childern were all born in Ohio. Also living in the household was John's father, 62 year old John Smithberger.
John Smithberger lived in the household of his daughter, Philomena Schott, at the time of the 1900 and 1910 census. In 1900, the 82 year old's occupation was listed as "tobacco packing." (His son in law, Nicholas Schott, was a tobacco farmer.) John came to America in 1833 and was a naturalized citizen. He was able to read and write English.
Hannah and John Smithberger live with their daughter Minnie Schott in Elk Twp, Noble County OH in the 1900 census, but by 1910, only John Smithberger is in the household. Hanna gave birth to eight children, four of whom were still living in 1900. She came to America in 1837 and was married to a naturalized citizen. Hannah could read and write English.
