Ordinarily, she would have been born in the Prince-Bishopric of Osnabrueck, but Napoleon had caused a dissolution ordinance to be declared in 1803, which ended the 600 year old country. From 1803 to 1815 the government was a mess, and changed hands at least 5 times. With Napoleon's defeat, the "Congress of Vienna" created the new Kingdom of Hannover out of the ruins.

There is a small cemetery in Acme (Old Pleasant Hill Cemetery). It is located on the SW corner, of the intersection of SR 258, and 100W, in Hamilton Township.
