LIPPELMAN(N)

It appears likely that all persons with the last name Lippelman/ Lippelmann in the United States are related to each other. However, the Leppelman(n)s who appear in Ohio census records are from Denmark. There were at least three brothers, and probably some cousins, who came to the United States in the mid 1800s. Gus describes the Lippelmanns as large, big boned people. This is supported by a picture of three Lippelmann brothers dated 1881. We have found no living person who knows which brothers are pictured or who is who. However, we have now located contempary pictures of two of the three brothers and believe that the brother seated on left is Herman Henry Lippelmann of St. Louis, standing brother is John H. Lippelmann of St. Louis, and the brother seated on the right is Herman Henry Lippelmann of Cincinatti.

See picture below of Herman Henry Lippelman of Cincinnati with his wife Sophia Tucker married Dec. 18, 1864 in Cincinnati. OH. Based on the beard no mustache, and the ears, we assume he is the gentleman on the far right. See second picture below of John H. Lippelmann and his family. His face is long, like the standing brother, verses square like the brother sitting on the left.

There were probably more than the 2 copies found to date: the one we have and one in Germany.

On our APril 2003 trip to Germany, we attended the Marienkirche. Here are all the Lippelmann cousins at the church 27 April 2003.

Johann Herman Lippelmann (June 14, 1844). I am fairly certain this is the brother who settle in St. Louis and used the name Herman Henry Lippelmann.
Anne Marie Elisabeth Lippelmann (LDS-I cut off year, redo.)
Anna Isabein Lippelmann (1850)
Catherine Isabein Lippelmann (died May 17, 1941)

JOHANN HERMAN LIPPELMAN - Germany 2nd generation

Born Feb. 18, 1806, died May 19, 1878, married Sept 24, 1831 Anna Marie Elisabeth Wessling
Children:
1. William Lippelmann 1830. His great-nephew, Gustave Lippelmann, Jr. says that their family visited him in Cincinnati in 1922 on their way to Germany to visit the family remaining there. Gustave remembered they lived on a farm outside Cincinnati, and thought William had been the mayor of Cincinnati at one time. (He may be confusing him with the H. H. Lippelman of Cincinnati who was a councilman in Cincinnati.)
2. Marie Iisabein Lippelmann (Sept. 6, 1832-May 7, 1889)
3. Johann Lippelmann (1831 or 1833) per Gustave Lippelmann, Jr. originally went to Cincinnati, but moved west and contact with the family was lost. (Possibly the John H. Lippelmann in St. Louis. The year of birth matches.)
4. Johann Heinrich Lippelmann (May 5, 1834-July 20, 1905) married Stuckmann.
5. Peter Heinrich Lippelmann (July 8, 1835-May 18, 1898) was a doctor, possibly of both people and animals. He married Bohmer (no children)
married second Loehoefener
ancestors of the Kansas, Lippelmanns
6. Johann Friedreich Lippelmann (Sept. 19, 1837-May 29, 1905) married Katharine Iisabein Grohmann. I think they lost a child in 1842 as they are listed under births, without a number for a child.
7. Anna Marie Lippelmann (June 5, 1846-May 19, 1919) Sept. 25, 1874 married to Hermann Heinrich Dickenhorst per marriage records extracted Evangelisch, Spenge.

Note: The years of birth for Marie and Johann H. match closely with the Marie Lippelmann arrival record previously mentioned and the St. Louis "John H." Lippelmann. Gustave said only the Lutherans who stayed in Germany are on the stammbaum, family tree, and that made his father very dissatisfied with the tree. Gustave thought that there was a Pieper farm near the Lippelmann's in Barduffingdorf. He places the Loehefener farm at Ruber Werther. He remembers it was near the Black Forest and the "Ditmal statute".

JOHANN H. "JOHN" LIPPELMAN - 1st generation - Missouri
Born Feb. 1835 (1900 census) Germany
Married Charlotta (March 1838 per 1900 census, Hanover, Germany)
a. Laura Lippelman (1863). Probably the Laura Lippelman who married Charles Thuener on Nov. 29, 1883 in St. Louis, MO.
b. Adelia Lippelmann (1869)
c. Matilda Lippelman (1872)
d. Olinda Lippelman (1 Oct. 1880)

Possibly Johann Lippelmann (age 19 per arrival records 1854) who sailed on the ship "Johannes" from Bremen arriving at New Orleans on 23 Oct. 1854. That Johann's destination was listed as Cincinnati, OH. The earliest St. Louis reference I have found to Lippelmann is John H. Lippelmann listed as a member of the St. Louis Merchant's Exchange on Jan. 1, 1866, at 13th and Market. The name of the company is always John H. Lippelmann Co., sometimes with the addition of Flour & Feed. From 1867 to 1870 his business address is given as Jefferson Ave & Conde St. In 1872 John H. Lippelmann's listing changes to Broadway Market, and H. H. Lippelmann is first listed with a flour and feed business at Jefferson & Conde. John H. Lippelmann is no longer listed with the exchange beginning in 1874. However, in 1876, H. H. Lippelmann lists his company affiliation as John H. Lippelmann & Bros. Feed. It is probable that he is the John H. Lippelmann who worked for Charles Thuerner & Company at 10 S. Jefferson Ave and who lived in Kirkwood per the St. Louis 1889 directory. (Note: the Laura Lippelmann who married a 1883 Thuerner was probably his daughter.) In 1891 & 1893, he is probably the John H. Lippelmann, president of Seymour Schulze Galvanized Iron and Cornice Company, 8 S. Jefferson, residence Kirkwood. In 1895, he is listed as the President of Benton Hay, Grain, & Flour Co., 6400 manchester Ave, residence Kirkwood. Beginning in 1896 the company is listed as the John H. Lippelmann Hay, Grain & Flour Company at 6531-6547 Manchester Ave. In 1901 the Lippelmann Grain & Feed Company was no longer listed, and the Schultz Brothers Grain & Feed was located at 6533 Manchester. Since John H. was previously president of a company with Seymour Schulze in the title, the grain company may have still been in the family. (Schultz maybe his wife's maiden name or the name of a brother- in-law.)
