[Ott Family Tree_Ver 8.FTW]
Descendnats of Hiram Meyer: Catherine and Barney bought the family farm just south of St. Lucas. Barney and Catherine had a farm just south of St. Lucas. After Catherine's death, Barney lived with his son Frank on the home place. Later he lived on the south edge of St. Lucas, having moved an old country schoolhouse from Auburn. This later became the buttermakers' house, just across from the creamery. When his health began to fail, Frank persuaded him to move back to his home. They day before he died, Barney walked to each of his five daughters' farm homes for a visit. Barney played the organ in church. He often carried a small portable organ and walked with it to the Old Mission Church, in the days before St. Lucas had a resident pastor. He was known far and wide as quite a horse-trader. The farm is now owned by their grandson, Leonard Kuenen

Heinrich Beene married into my Schrandt line on 19 Nov 1754. The Schrandt family, along with the Kuennen and Meyer families emigrated to Pennsylvania - 1846-1850. These families were strong Catholics and eventually settled in St. Lucas, Fayette County, Iowa
