    Transcription of talk with
    ELMER KLAPMEIER
    9 Feb 1974 in Mora Minnesota

    Mother had two sisters. Marie married W. H. Hokamp, and Lena married Fred Hellwieg in Belden and Carroll Nebraska.

    Their children

    Hellwiegs had a son, Henry, and a son Fred, son Kris, and son Elfrey.
    Elfred is the only one as far as I know who is still alive, and he lives in Bemmerton, Washington.
    Elfred Hellwieg and his wife were here two years ago. I have had several letters from them since Myrtle has been sick.

    They had two daughters, Ella, who married Lester Bartell, and they live in Laurel, Nebraska.
    Ella had some children.

    The other daughter is Clara, who married a Williams. He passed away about 5 years ago. Clara is still alive, and lives at 4206 Bancroft Avenue in Omaha, Nebraska.

    Had a card from Clara - she never writes anyway. Clara was the only one that I knew real well. She was my favorite cousin.


    Hokamps had a Henry, William, and Harry. They are all dead. There is another son, Harry, who lived in Western Nebraska. I think he is still alive, but don't know just where.

    The brothers had some children, but I never had any contact - never knew anything about those at all, so I don't know where they are.

    They had two daughters. Annie Hokamp married John Schram. They lived for years in Belden, Nebraska, and Annie is still alive and still lives in Belden. When she got married, she came up here on her wedding trip, and that's the last time.

    Annie had one son, I think.

    The other daughter is Hilda, and she married, and her first husband died. She remarried, and he died. Her name now is Hilda Tyrmyne, and she lives in Walthill, Thurston County, Nebraska.
    (PJH: Tyrmyme does not seem to exist as a surname. Turmyne does. Try variations.)

    Had a letter, not too long ago, from Hilda. Hilda had no children.

    Bill didn't have any children.

    **

    Mother and her two sisters came to this country. Dad sent for her.
    Do you know when the two sisters died? No.
    They probably came to this country about 6 months before William and Louisa were married.

    Lena died last, in the early 1950's, and Marie died a year or so after Mother.

    Mother was born in Westphalia, probably Buttendorf.

    of Louise Klapmeier.

    Kanabec County Times
    Thursday, May 18, 1933

    DEATH OF MRS. WILLIAM KLAPMEIER OCCURS MONDAY: Entire Community Grieved by Passing of Well-Known Lady.

    Many friends of Mrs. William Klapmeier will be grieved to learn of her death which occurred Monday, May 15 after a lingering illness of nine weeks. Mrs. Klapmeier had been seriously ill with kidney trouble but it was believed that she was getting better until about three days before her death.

    Louise Rightmeier (sic) was born July 5, 1859 in Lubecke, Westfallen, Germany, and died at the age of 73 years, 10 months, and 10 days. She came to Nebraska in this country in the year 1881. Two years later she was married to William Klapmeier in Washington County, Nebraska. They came to Kanabec County in 1898 where Mr. Klapmeier passed away May 11, 1911. Surviving her are eight children, namely Anna and Martha of Meredith, Montana; Mary of Barron, Wisconsin; Henry, Herman, and Elmer of Mora; Fred and Edward of Meredith, Montana. One son, William, passed away April 26, 1929. There are also twelve grandchildren and two great grandchildren besides other relatives and a very large number of friends.

    Funeral services are being held this afternoon, Thursday, at 1:30p from the Henry Klapmeier home and at 2 o’clock from the Zion Lutheran Church, Rev. H. C. Janus officiating. Pallbearers are A. H. Rosnow, Fred Heuser, Rulolph Walter, F.A. Kreisel, Fred Althoff and Henry Birkman. Burial will be made in the Oakwood Cemetery.

    Among those from afar off in attendance at the funeral were William Hokamp and Hilda Hokamp of Carroll, Nebraska, nephew and niece of the deceased; Mr. and Mrs. B.E. Broadbent, nee Mary Klapmeier, of Barron, Wisconsin.

    The children who live in Montana were called here several weeks ago by their mother’s illness and returned to their homes just recently, so they were unable to return for the funeral.
