General Notes: Abraham Good (Anna Brenneman's Grandfather)
Grandfather Good came to Ohio from Virginia in the Civil War years. He didn't believe in fighting so he hid himself whenever he could. The soldiers were always looking for him, so sometimes he dressed in grandmother's clothes so he could split wood or some other work for her while they still lived in Virginia.
They were still after him when they decided to move to Ohio. The weather was cold on the trip and he stopped to warm himself where they were shoeing horses. They had a high place where they kept the fire to heat the horses' shoes. Grandfather was warming his feet when the soldiers came for him. He waited until they got close and then kicked ashes in their eyes. By the time they could see again, he was gone. He had a small boy driving the wagon, and would join him whenever he could to give him instructions. Finally freedom came when they crossed into Ohio.
They first came to Putnam County and later to Allen County where they made their home. They had ten children and were very poor, living on bare necessities. Even so, they lived to a ripe old age. Grandfather died first and the children took good care of their mother Rebecca.
Grandfather was rather comical. He used to sit in the "Amen Corner" at church with his back tight against the corner. He would soon fall asleep because it was warm with the stove near. He also liked to warm his feet at home in the ash box of the stove and spit his chewing tobacco in the same box.
Obit from Herald of Truth:
In Allen Co., Ohio, March 12, 1892, of erysipelas, A. P. Good, aged 68 years, 5 months and 20 days. Buried on the 14th at the Salem church, followed to the grave by many sympathizing relatives and friends. Services by C. B. Brenneman and Moses Brenneman. He was born in Rockingham Co., Va., and was married to Rebecca Rhodes. To this union were born ten children; two have preceded him to the promised land. There are 38 grandchildren living and 7 dead. He also leaves a dear companion with her family to mourn their loss, but blessed be God, they need not mourn as those having no hope. He was a devoted member of the Mennonite church for many years; always kind and charitable to the poor, and would sometimes discommode himself for the sake of helping the poor and needy. He was liberal in his contributions for the cause of Christ. The church has lost one of the charitable ones so much needed to advance the cause of Christ. In the last years of the late war he moved with his family from Rockingham Co., Va., to Putnam Co., Ohio, where he lived a few years and then moved to Allen Co., Ohio on the farm where he lived at the time of his death. A few nights before he died the writer visited him, and asked whether he was ready to be offered. He said he was, and that he was glad that we need not always remain in the world. He further said, "I am ready, and will just be satisfied as the Lord will." Oh, brethren, let us strive so to live that we can truly say at all times, "Just as the Lord will." C. B. Brenneman
From Eloise King's Book:
It seems Abraham was one of those who helped people escape from the Shenandoah Valley of Virginia during the Civil War. About eight months before the close of the war, he (Melchiah Breneman 1839-1882) decided to desert the service, together with Abraham Good, George Brunk, Simon Cooper, they equipped themselves with a horse, wagon and with some provisions and placed their wives on them and started over the mountains. The men walking after night and resting during the day, until they had crossed the line into the union territory where they separated. AP Good and wife, and George Brunk and wife going to Fairfield Co., OH. Simon Cooper and wife went to Muncie, IN, while Melchiah Breneman and wife went to Lancaster Co., PA.
John M Shenk related the following story regarding Abraham and Rebecca's reason for leaving Virginia: Abe Good made at least two trips from Virginia to Ohio while the Civil War was in progress. This fact became known to the authorities in Richmond, and they sent word to Harrisonburg that Abe Good should be brought to Richmond 'dead or alive.' A Confederate officer, along with a small detachment of troops, went to the Good homestead and confronted Abe.
The officer asked him if he had indeed been to Ohio and Abe replied that he had made two or three trips to Ohio during the course of the War, but that he had not carried war news. The officer then informed Abe that he had orders to take him to Richmond, dead or alive. Abe knew that if he went to Richmond he would be executed, so he told the officer, "you must take me here" and lay down on the couch. The officer pulled his pistol and put it in Abe's ribs (hard enough to leave a bruise), backed away and then poked the pistol in his ribs again. The officer then stated that if he must execute this man, there must be another officer present for a witness.
So he sent a soldier to bring in another Confederate officer. When the officer arrived he said, "Mr. Good, what is the problem here?" Abe said, "this man has come to take my life because I have been to Ohio during the War." Abe further explained that he had been to Ohio to visit friends, but that he had never carried any war news.
The second officer then said, "I have known Mr. Good my entire life and can vouch for him. If he says he never aided the Union cause, it is so." This was enough to convince the first officer that there was no reason to carry out the execution.
Shortly after this incident, Abe and Rebecca decided they must leave Virginia and sold their belongings. Just before they were ready to leave, there were still a few head of sheep to dispose of, and Abe sent his son to sell the sheep in the market at Harrisonburg, giving him strict instructions as to when they were leaving.
The son was late in returning from the market and Abe felt it was not safe to wait any longer for his return, so the family set out on the journey to Ohio without the boy. When the boy returned home he saw that the wagons had already left, so he ran off in the direction that he thought they must have taken.
He was able to catch up with the last wagon, jumped onto it without informing the driver, and fell asleep. Abe stopped the procession for a rest when he felt it was safe (they lived only a few miles for the West Virginia border which was Union territory,) but he was very distraught over having been forced to abandon his son. As he was checking over the wagons during the rest stop, he discovered the boy sleeping in the back and the family was reunited.
Abraham married Rebecca Rhodes on 23 Oct 1845 in York, PA. Rebecca was born on 15 Apr 1827 in York, PA and died on 7 Dec 1901 in Elida, Ohio at age 74.
General Notes: Rebecca was united with the Mennonite Church in her youth and was a faithful member until death. She was active in church life, serving as a deaconess for the Salem/Pike congregation, assisting at baptism time, assiting in times of sickness and childbirth, and fiving comfort. She has known as an outstanding deaconess.

Good, also from Rockingham Co., Va., on Oct. 23, 1845. He departed this life March 12, 1892. To this union were born six sons, and four daughters, of which number three sons preceded her to the home beyond. The grandchildren number fifty-seven, forty-eight living and nine dead. And twenty-three great-grandchildren, all living, making a total of ninety [descendents] of which seventy-eight are living. She united with the Mennonite church in her youth and was a faithful member until death. She was deaconess in the church about twelve years. On earth we see her friendly face no more, nor hear her words of comfort and encouragement but we have the hope that we may meet her where parting will be no more. Her anxiety in her last days was revealed in her prayer to God that the affections of Christian people might become stronger in Christ and severed more fully from the vain things of this world. About her last words were "I want you all to meet me in heaven." Let us all strive to that end. Funeral services by Moses Brenneman of Lima, O., and N. O. Blosser of New Stark from Matt. 6:21. Selected by the deceased sister a few days before her death.

General Notes: John M. Brenneman was born near Bremen, Ohio on May 28, 1816 and died near Elida, Ohio October 3, 1895. In June 1837, he married Sophia Good, daughter of Joseph and Magdalena (Campbell) Good.
They owned and lived on their farm of 174 acres located in Sugar Creek Twp., Allen Co., Ohio where they died. They both united with the Mennonite Church in Fairfield Co., Ohio. Soon after their marriage in April 1844, he was chosen to the ministry of the gospel in the Mennonite Church in Fairfield Co. Since his education was very limited, he took about two years of schooling in the public school, together with his older children. In the fall of 1848, they moved to Franklin Co., Ohio where he resided in a little over six years.
While living in Franklin Co., he was ordained to the office of bishop in 1849.
In the spring of 1855, he moved with his family to Allen Co., Ohio where he resided until his death. The great purpose and concern of his life was the welfare of the church, which he loved, and the salvation of souls.
He was much concerned especially for the spiritual welfare of his children and grandchildren. He devoted very little of his time to looking after temporal affairs, but left these mostly in the care of his eldest son, Joseph.
His disposition was to look on the dark, rather than on the bright side of things, to the serious rather than to the enjoyable or glad aspect of things.
From the time of his ordination, he entered upon his work with great vigor and soon rose to prominence, his services being called for in many different congregations. Being of an aggressive type, he was one of disposition early advocates of Sunday Schools, English preaching, evening meetings, etc. He himself could speak fluently in both the German and English languages. It was through his influence that the "Herald of Truth" the official church paper of the Mennonite Church, was promoted by John F. Funk of Chicago, Illinois in 1864. In 1867 the permanent home of the Publishing House was moved to Elkhart, Indiana. From the beginning of the publication, John M. Brenneman was a regular contributor and writer for the church organ. He wrote several books of which "Plain Teachings" was considered the choice of his writings.
In his official capacity in his home congregation he was very stern, and inclined to be rather radical on some questions hi his early life. This attitude resulted in a serious loss in many of the descendants of the older brethren of his congregation, but in his later life, he was one of the most congenial advisers the writer ever worked with.
About twenty years before his death, he became afflicted with a form of paralytic affection, which gradually grew worse on him until he could no longer serve in his capacity as leader in the church's work. For several years he rarely attended services. On the morning before his death, he requested to have sung the hymn, "Abide with Me, Fast Falls the Eventide." His funeral was held at Salem Church with text Deut. 5:29.

History of Allen County-US Genweb
Brenneman proved to be an able minister and bishop but he was overshadowed by his oldest brother John M. Brenneman who came shortly thereafter. George Brenneman is described as a strict disciplinarian, an earnest Christian, a man of deep conviction and indomitable will, who may not always have exercised the greatest of tact. He and his wife loved company and had many warm friends. Their fireside often rang with hearty laughter. For reasons no longer clear Bishop Stemen was not at ease in committing the future of the young congregation to Bishop Brenneman, so it is thought that he also induced John M. Brenneman to move to Allen County in 1855.
Soon after John's arrival and purchase of 176 acres of land one and a half miles east of the little Dutch Hollow Church, Stemen delivered his bishopric to John M. Brenneman. On the occasion the venerable old biship, nearly blind and feeble with age, delivered a powerful and eloquent sermon on Revelation 12:1. Thus, with proper solemnity and seriousness, John M was installed as official head of the congregation. Only a few months later on August 19, 1855, Bishop Henry Stemen died from malaria fever. By that time the little log church had an impressive "bench" of ordained men. Bishop Henry's older brother Peter survived him less than a year, passing away May 5, 1856. The following year the other aged deacon John Sherrick died (1857).
from Gerberich Brenneman history:
Bishop JOHN M. BRENNEMAN, b. near Bremen, 0h., 5-28-1816 (not long after his parents had moved to their new wilderness home), d. near Elida, 0., 10-3-1895, m. in June, 1837, Sophia Good, who d. in 1882. He and his wife united with the Mennonite Church in Fairfield Co. soon after their marriage.
In 1844 he was chosen to the ministry and in 1849 to the office of bishop. In 1848 they moved to Franklin Co., 0hio, and in 1855 to the vicinity of Elida, O. (Allen Co.), where a large Mennonite settlement was in the course of formation. He speedily became its religious leader, and was rated as one of the most prominent ministers and speakers of his day.
He had meager opportunities for gaining an education in his boyhood days, and when he was ordained to the ministry this lack was so keenly realized that he attended the public school in company with his own children. He was a great student, especially of the Bible, and could quote Scripture "by the yard."
As a preacher he possessed more than ordinary ability, which is proven by the fact that he could preach for over two hours without tiring his audience. He wrote many edifying articles in the "Herald of Truth," as well as books of a religious nature. He and his wife had twelve children: Joseph, Susanna, Lydia, Anna, Henry A., Moses, Manasseh, Catharine, Levi, George, Elizabeth and Magdalena. Buried at Elida, Ohio.
John Melchior Brenneman (1816-1895)
OBITUARY. JOHN M. BRENNEMAN was born on the 28th of May 1816 and died at the residence of his son-in-law, Bro. Isaac Stemen on the 3rd of October 1895, aged 79 years, 4 months and 5 days. He was joined in marriage to Sophia Good in June 1837. He with his wife united with the Mennonite church in Fairfield Co., Ohio shortly after their marriage.
In the month of April 1844 he was chosen and ordained to the ministry of the Gospel. In the fall of 1848 he moved to Franklin County, where he resided a little over six years, and then in the spring of 1855 he moved to Allen Co., where he resided to the time of his death. In 1849 he was ordained to the office of bishop in Franklin County. He was the father of 12 children, 6 sons and 6 daughters, of whom 8, 3 sons and 5 daughters survive him. There were also 45 grandchildren of whom 37 survive; also 27 great-grandchildren of whom 25 survive.
He was an earnest, zealous laborer in the vineyard of the Lord, and the great purpose and concern of his life was the welfare and prosperity of the church which he loved, and the salvation of souls. He always was especially concerned for the salvation of his own children and grandchildren. So marked was his desire in this direction that even during the prime of his life he gave very little attention to his temporal affairs, but spent most of his time in the work to which the Master had called him and in the study of the Scriptures. During his last illness, he very frequently desired devotional exercises, and asked those who came to visit to pray with him, and on one occasion he desired that the prayer might be especially for the salvation of his children and grandchildren, and when his grandchildren came to see him, he took them by the hand and admonished them to be good, or asked them if they would not be good, and often held them by the hand until they promised they would.
His disposition was to look rather on the dark than on the bright side of things-rather to serious and solemn than to the enjoyable or glad aspect of things; and from this fact he often suffered intense grief and sadness of heart. Afflictions seemed to take so deep a hold on his mind, that sometimes it seemed as though they were too heavy for him to bear. When he saw members of the church becoming unfaithful, it caused him intense grief, and he would with tears plead with them, and try to win them back. When troubles and discussions came up in the church, he was often greatly troubled and those of us who shared with him the fiery trials of the last 30 years in our church well know of the tears he shed and the sorrows which he endured on account of the church and the part which those he so dearly loved took in them.
One of the great afflictions of his life was the sudden death of his son Henry, who was instantly killed by lightning, during a thunder storm, on Aug. 28th, 1872. His wife Sophia died 13 years ago. This also caused him great sorrow, but putting his trust in the Lord, he looked forward in an abiding hope-yes as he said on two occasions during his last illness in a "living hope, Eine Lebendige Hoffnung.
About 20 years ago, he became subject to an affection of a paralytic nature and which gradually grew on him until it disabled him altogether for the work in which he was so deeply interested. During his last years he was very feeble in body, so that he could seldom even go to meeting, but his mind was strong and vigorous to the end. His last sickness was first malarial fever of which he suffered about 4 weeks. During the last week of his life the disease turned to irritation of the bowels. He suffered patiently, and without a murmur until death came to his relief.
On the morning before his death he requested to have sung the hymn, "Abide with me, fast falls the eventide," etc. A week before he died he was impressed with the thought that his end was near and requested that his daughter Annie should be sent for, made arrangements for his burial, and who should conduct the services, and named some of the hymns to be used, and especially requested that he should be buried in a quiet way without pomp or display, and without eulogy, so as not to give any one the idea that they could be saved by good works, but alone through grace as the free gift of God.
His funeral occurred at the Salem M. H. on the 5th of Oct. His funeral was largely attended. Services were conducted by Bish. J. F. Funk, of Elkhart, Ind., from the text Deut. 5: 29, which he himself had selected for the occasion some years ago. He was not only an earnest preacher, but also a diligent writer. He wrote a great many able and edifying articles in the HERALD OF TRUTH as our older readers well remember. His first work was the little book "Christianity and War," published in 1863 which has passed through several editions.
At the communion season last spring he was unable to attend the public services, but desired that the communion be given him at his home. This was done and was such a source of comfort to him that he shed tears of joy on the occasion.
"Plain Teachings," an excellent collection of his best articles, including several hymns, was published in 1876.
Thus, both by preaching and writing, did he seek to do his Master's work and labor for the promotion of the cause. For a time he felt that he wanted to stay, that he might still be a comforter and an advisor to his children and their descendants. But before he died he could leave it all to God and said he was now fully resigned and willing to go.

He was an earnest, zealous laborer in the vineyard of the Lord, and the great purpose and concern of his life was the welfare and prosperity of the church which he loved, and the salvation of souls. He always was especially concerned for the salvation of his own children and grandchildren. So marked was his desire in this direction that even during the prime of his life he gave very little attention to his temporal affairs, but spent most of his time in the work to which the Master had called him and in the study of the Scriptures. During his last illness, he very frequently desired devotional exercises, and asked those who came to visit to pray with him, and on one occasion he desired that the prayer might be especially for the salvation of his children and grandchildren, and when his grandchildren came to see him, he took them by the hand and admonished them to be good, or asked them if they would not be good, and often held them by the hand until they promised they would.
His disposition was to look rather on the dark than on the bright side of things-rather to serious and solemn than to the enjoyable or glad aspect of things; and from this fact he often suffered intense grief and sadness of heart. Afflictions seemed to take so deep a hold on his mind, that sometimes it seemed as though they were too heavy for him to bear. When he saw members of the church becoming unfaithful, it caused him intense grief, and he would with tears plead with them, and try to win them back. When troubles and discussions came up in the church, he was often greatly troubled and those of us who shared with him the fiery trials of the last 30 years in our church well know of the tears he shed and the sorrows which he endured on account of the church and the part which those he so dearly loved took in them.
One of the great afflictions of his life was the sudden death of his son Henry, who was instantly killed by lightning, during a thunder storm, on Aug. 28th, 1872. His wife Sophia died 13 years ago. This also caused him great sorrow, but putting his trust in the Lord, he looked forward in an abiding hope-yes as he said on two occasions during his last illness in a "living hope, Eine Lebendige Hoffnung.
About 20 years ago, he became subject to an affection of a paralytic nature and which gradually grew on him until it disabled him altogether for the work in which he was so deeply interested. During his last years he was very feeble in body, so that he could seldom even go to meeting, but his mind was strong and vigorous to the end. His last sickness was first malarial fever of which he suffered about 4 weeks. During the last week of his life the disease turned to irritation of the bowels. He suffered patiently, and without a murmur until death came to his relief.
On the morning before his death he requested to have sung the hymn, "Abide with me, fast falls the eventide," etc. A week before he died he was impressed with the thought that his end was near and requested that his daughter Annie should be sent for, made arrangements for his burial, and who should conduct the services, and named some of the hymns to be used, and especially requested that he should be buried in a quiet way without pomp or display, and without eulogy, so as not to give any one the idea that they could be saved by good works, but alone through grace as the free gift of God.
His funeral occurred at the Salem M. H. on the 5th of Oct. His funeral was largely attended. Services were conducted by Bish. J. F. Funk, of Elkhart, Ind., from the text Deut. 5: 29, which he himself had selected for the occasion some years ago. He was not only an earnest preacher, but also a diligent writer. He wrote a great many able and edifying articles in the HERALD OF TRUTH as our older readers well remember. His first work was the little book "Christianity and War," published in 1863 which has passed through several editions.
At the communion season last spring he was unable to attend the public services, but desired that the communion be given him at his home. This was done and was such a source of comfort to him that he shed tears of joy on the occasion.
"Plain Teachings," an excellent collection of his best articles, including several hymns, was published in 1876.
Thus, both by preaching and writing, did he seek to do his Master's work and labor for the promotion of the cause. For a time he felt that he wanted to stay, that he might still be a comforter and an advisor to his children and their descendants. But before he died he could leave it all to God and said he was now fully resigned and willing to go.

General Notes: GOSPEL HERALD - September 23, 1926
Good.-Simon P., son of A. P. and Rebecca Good, was born in Rockingham Co, Va., Mar. 27, 1856; died at his home near Elida, Ohio, Aug. 23 ,1926; Aged 70 y. 4 m. 27 d. He with his parents moved to Putnam Co., Ohio, when yet a small boy. Soon after they came to Allen Co., where he has resided ever since. He was united in marriage to Anna Amstutz, who lived but a short time. In 1883 he was united in marriage to Barbara E. Greider. To them were born eleven children. Four died in infancy and seven survive. He leaves his beloved wife, his children-Anna (Mrs. John Brenneman), Rebecca (Mrs. Eli Troyer), Mary (Mrs. Hershel Brenneman), Leah (Mrs. Reuben Brunk); Menno Good, Clara (Mrs. Robert Ross),-his brothers, Henry Good and Jacob Good,-his sisters, Mrs. Elizabeth Huber, Mrs. John Mumaw, his grandchildren (22 living, 1 deceased), besides many other relatives and friends. In his early manhood he safely anchored his soul in the "Rock of Ages" and gave his hand to the Mennonite Church. In 1905 the Lord having found in him such qualities as are essential to the office of deacon, sent him forth on this mission in which capacity he was active as long as health permitted. Although he had been sick for more than three years, yet the news of his death came to many rather unexpected. His illness was due to nervous exhaustion which was followed by complications. During his affliction he was not able to attend church services but he maintained a strong faith in his God and a deep concern for the welfare of the Church to the end. He possessed those rare traits of character which enabled him to be of great usefulness not only in the Church but also in the home and neighborhood. To many he gave helpful counsel and advice. He was always ready to give a helping hand to those in need and opened his home to many homeless boys. Altho his work is ended we believe his life will live on in the hearts of others. Funeral services were conducted Aug. 26, at the Pike Church by the brethren I. J. Buckwalter of Dalton, Ohio and P. E. Brunk and Andrew Brenneman of Elida, Ohio. Interment in Pike Cemetery. Text, Psa. 72: 17.
Simon P married Anna Amstutz. Anna was born on 13 Aug 1858, died on 17 Oct 1881 at age 23, and was buried in Salem Cemetery near Elida, Ohio. The cause of her death was dysentery.

General Notes: Gospel Herald - June 7, 1928
Good. - Barbara E., daughter of John M., and Anna Greider, was born near Dayton, Ohio, July 30, 1860; died May 11, 1928, after an illness of three years caused by paralysis, at her home near Elida, Ohio; aged 67 y. 9 m. 12 d. On Sept. 4, 1883, she was united in marriage with Simon P. Good who preceded her to the spirit world Aug. 23, 1926. To this union were born 11 children, 7 of whom are still living (Mrs. John M. Brenneman, Mrs. E. E. Troyer, Mrs. Herschel Brenneman, Mrs. M. L. Troyer, Mrs. R. R. Brunk, Menno S. Good, and Mrs. R. R. Ross), also 26 grandchildren and 7 foster children. She is also survived by 3 sisters and 3 brothers (Mrs. Susan Stauffer, Mrs. Mary Clair, Benjamin Greider, Mrs. W. S. Riley, J. E. Greider, and Christian Greider), besides many other relatives and friends. Early in life she gave her heart to the Lord and united with the Mennonite Church of which she remained a loyal and faithful member until the summons came. The last week of her life she frequently talked about going home, asking those present to sing for her; leaving a blessed assurance of the eternal hope. Her smiling face, her patient self- sacrificing spirit, her motherly disposition and most of all her simple faith in her Savior won for her a host of friends. She will be missed in the community, in the Church and above all in the home. "There lives and dwells in mansions far Beyond the ken of erring mortals, A soul whose virtues, like a star Resplendent, shine beyond their portals.
"A soul so loving, kind and fair -
To me more dear than every other -
Who blest me with her latest prayer,
And answered to the name of Mother."
Funeral services were conducted May 14, at the Pike Church by the brethren, I. J. Buckwalter, P. E. Brunk, and Andrew Brenneman. Text, Prov. 31:28; Mark 14:8. Interment in Pike Cemetery.

During that time he had three horses shot out from under him, each time making his escape. About Sunset of the day before the battle of Gettysburg he received a bultet in his left side, lodging near his heart, which he carried to his grave.
About eight months before the close of the war he decided to desert the service, and together with Abraham Good, George Brunk, Simon Cooper, they equipped themselves with a horse, wagon, and with some provisions and placed their wives on them and started over the mountains.

Marriage Notes: About Anna and John's Courtship Days
One Sunday when I was a little girl, my parents were invited to the Moses Brenneman house for dinner. When Mary Brenneman called the boys in from the barn for the meal, there were a whole row of them. I asked mother Barbara, "Which one of the boys is the best looking?" Mother hushed me and told me to be quiet, but I said anyhow, "I think John is." I was only a child at the time.
Years later I attended revival meetings at the Blanchard Church, miles from home. I went with several others in a borrowed carriage. Later when John arrived, he joined us. then he asked me if I would ride home with him. I said, "Oh, I guess." Then when we got home, he asked if he could come and see me, and I said, "Okay." I must have been sixteen or a little older and I fell in love with him.
One evening, another couple asked John if they and us could trade dates. He asked what I thought about it, and I didn't want to but said he could if he wanted, but I wouldn't. He didn't either. I thought you should only date one person at a time.
It was a custom for the girl to give her date a little snack, so one night after church, I gave John my usual snack--onions and butter bread! He looked a little surprised and rather embarrassed, but ate what I had given him. I found out he liked onions. Ha!
When we became engaged, John asked me when I wanted the wedding. It was close to Christmas and I said, "Christmas." He agreed.
At our marriage, I became so touched by the singing of "Blest Be the Tie That Binds" at the conclusion of the ceremony by Uncle John Shenk, that when my parents congratulated us, I burst into tears--they just rolled. Later John told me he felt bad because he thought I was sorry I had married him. But I was just happy. I told him I loved him.
In all my life, I never saw anyone who could take his place. I loved him and didn't want any outside interference.
General Notes: John M. Brenneman's Childhood
After John's birth, March 31, 1877, his grandfather, also named John M., came to see him. Speaking in Pennsylvania Dutch he said, "I came to see Johnny," so they named him after his grandfather.
John started to school when he was quite young and in order to keep his oldest brother Andrew company. Since neither of them could speak English well, Andrew helped John interpret. This sometimes caused problems. Pennsylvania Dutch was spoken at home.
John's brother Sim was larger than John for a while even though he was younger. One time when they were being weighed, John put stones in his pocket to weigh more.
In those days, children had to work. They were given various jobs to do. The oldest brother Andrew, would divide the work and let each take their choice. Then he would take what was left, if any, he always got the best of them. He would say, "You churn so many turns and I'll finish." Often, the butter would be done before his turn ever came.
John liked fun, and loved to tease. He especially found amusement in flipping his sister's pigtails or opening their apron strings.
He was especially fond of singing. Someone came to church to give singing lessons. John joined the bass section, but was soon told he needed to sing soprano for awhile more. The teacher was correct, as he continued singing lead the rest of his life. He enjoyed participating in a quartet including his brother Alpheus, brother-in-law Menno Good, and cousin, Christ Brenneman, for many years. (John's son Simon imitated this quartet to near perfection in a recording studio and fooled many people who remembered this quartet that had never been recorded.)
John especially enjoyed visiting his grandparents and his aunts and uncles. He also worked for some of them before he married. He spent several years working in Virginia before he married. He was a farmer all his life imitated had great concern for his family.

Brunk. -- Leah, daughter of Simon P. and Barbara Good, was born near Elida, Ohio, April 24, 1896; passed away at the Memorial Hospital, Lima, Ohio, Oct. 30, 1948; aged 52 y. 6 m. 6 d. She spent most of her life in the same community. Early in youth she accepted Christ and became a member of the Pike Mennonite Church, of which she remained a member until death. Her deep devotion to the church was expressed by constant prayer for the maintaining of its standards and for its leaders. On March 19, 1919, she was united in marriage to Reuben R. Brunk, of Elida, Ohio, who survives. Also surviving are 7 children (Lillian, Hannibal, Mo.; Lawrence, Gladys - Mrs. Lester Cressman, Gertrude, Miriam - Mrs. Vernon Heatwole, Kenneth, Elida, Ohio; Margaret, E.M.C., Harrisonburg, Va.), one grandchild, 5 sisters and one brother (Anna - Mrs. John M. Brenneman, Rebecca - Mrs. E. E. Troyer, Mary - Mrs. Herschel Brenneman, Elizabeth - Mrs. M. L. Troyer, and Menno, all of Elida; and Clara - Mrs. Robert Ross, South Boston, Va.). Her sympathetic concern and prayer for the smallest problem of each member of the family was appreciated and will be missed. Funeral services were conducted at the home by Menno Troyer and at the Pike Church by Elmer Yoder, assisted by Lloy Kniss.

To brighter realms above;
From earth to heaven hath winged its way
To bask in Jesus' love."

After John's birth, March 31, 1877, his grandfather, also named John M., came to see him. Speaking in Pennsylvania Dutch he said, "I came to see Johnny," so they named him after his grandfather.
John started to school when he was quite young and in order to keep his oldest brother Andrew company. Since neither of them could speak English well, Andrew helped John interpret. This sometimes caused problems. Pennsylvania Dutch was spoken at home.
John's brother Sim was larger than John for a while even though he was younger. One time when they were being weighed, John put stones in his pocket to weigh more.
In those days, children had to work. They were given various jobs to do. The oldest brother Andrew, would divide the work and let each take their choice. Then he would take what was left, if any, he always got the best of them. He would say, "You churn so many turns and I'll finish." Often, the butter would be done before his turn ever came.
John liked fun, and loved to tease. He especially found amusement in flipping his sister's pigtails or opening their apron strings.
He was especially fond of singing. Someone came to church to give singing lessons. John joined the bass section, but was soon told he needed to sing soprano for awhile more. The teacher was correct, as he continued singing lead the rest of his life. He enjoyed participating in a quartet including his brother Alpheus, brother-in-law Menno Good, and cousin, Christ Brenneman, for many years. (John's son Simon imitated this quartet to near perfection in a recording studio and fooled many people who remembered this quartet that had never been recorded.)
John especially enjoyed visiting his grandparents and his aunts and uncles. He also worked for some of them before he married. He spent several years working in Virginia before he married. He was a farmer all his life imitated had great concern for his family.

One Sunday when I was a little girl, my parents were invited to the Moses Brenneman house for dinner. When Mary Brenneman called the boys in from the barn for the meal, there were a whole row of them. I asked mother Barbara, "Which one of the boys is the best looking?" Mother hushed me and told me to be quiet, but I said anyhow, "I think John is." I was only a child at the time.
Years later I attended revival meetings at the Blanchard Church, miles from home. I went with several others in a borrowed carriage. Later when John arrived, he joined us. then he asked me if I would ride home with him. I said, "Oh, I guess." Then when we got home, he asked if he could come and see me, and I said, "Okay." I must have been sixteen or a little older and I fell in love with him.
One evening, another couple asked John if they and us could trade dates. He asked what I thought about it, and I didn't want to but said he could if he wanted, but I wouldn't. He didn't either. I thought you should only date one person at a time.
It was a custom for the girl to give her date a little snack, so one night after church, I gave John my usual snack--onions and butter bread! He looked a little surprised and rather embarrassed, but ate what I had given him. I found out he liked onions. Ha!
When we became engaged, John asked me when I wanted the wedding. It was close to Christmas and I said, "Christmas." He agreed.
At our marriage, I became so touched by the singing of "Blest Be the Tie That Binds" at the conclusion of the ceremony by Uncle John Shenk, that when my parents congratulated us, I burst into tears--they just rolled. Later John told me he felt bad because he thought I was sorry I had married him. But I was just happy. I told him I loved him.
In all my life, I never saw anyone who could take his place. I loved him and didn't want any outside interference.

From the Gospel Herald Volume LV, Number 19 - May 8, 1962 - pages 439, 440.
Brenneman, Moses H., son of Moses and Mary (Steman) Brenneman, was born near Elida, Ohio, March 31, 1881; died at the Lima (Ohio) Memorial Hospital, April 4, 1962, following a cerebral thrombosis; aged 81 y. 4 d. On Oct. 12, 1919, he was married to Lillie Mae Geiger, who died Dec. 22, 1957. Six brothers also preceded him in death. Surviving are 2 daughters (Geneva-Mrs. Orrie Harshbarger, West Liberty; and Gladys-Mrs. Hiram Brenneman, Lima, Ohio), 2 brothers (Andrew and Alpheus), and 2 sisters (Mary and Martha), all of Elida; and 5 grandchildren. He was a member of the Salem Church, where funeral services were held, in charge of Richard E. Martin.
Brenneman, Martha J., daughter of Moses and Mary (Stemen) Brenneman, was born near Elida, Ohio, Jan. 19, 1887; died at her home of a heart attack, Jan. 1, 1976; aged 88 y. Surviving is one sister (Mary). She was a member of Central Mennonite Church. Funeral services were held at Pike Mennonite Church in charge, of T. M. Brenneman and Kenneth Benner; interment in Salem Cemetery.
Brenneman.- Mary E., daughter of Moses and Mary (Stemen) Brenneman, was born in Elida, Ohio, July 23, 1894; died at Springview Manor Nursing Home, Lima, Ohio, June 18, 1981; aged 86 y. She was preceded in death by seven brothers and one sister. She was a member of Central Mennonite Church. Funeral services were held at Salem Mennonite Church, June 20, 1981, in charge of Don Brenneman and Fred Brenneman; interment in Salem Cemetery.
In 1838, small pox visited the Rush Creek settlement, and among the victims were a ten year old son of Henry, and 2 days later, his wife. They were buried in a cemetery at Sugar Hill near Bremen, Ohio. Henry himself lies buried in the Pleasant Hill cemetery near Bremen.
His grandson, Timothy H. Brenneman, of Goshen, Indiana says of his grandfather that he was a fine old gentleman. This was the unanimous verdict of his neighbors. He was a good reader, and often read to his family out of a mammoth volume of "Martyr's Mirror," a German classic. Henry was also a good footman, having twice made the round trip over the mountains between Fairfield Co., Ohio and Rockingham Co., Virginia, his boyhood home. He was a loyal Mennonite, and his children continued in that faith.
The Pleasant Hill Mennonite church (Where Henry is buried) was built in section 26 about 1835, across the road from where it now stands. It was without a deed for a lot until 1862, when they obtained a deed for one-half acre of land for church and cemetery purposes. The first organization was before 1817 and met in dwellings and barns until they built the present church.
Peter Steman was the first elder. Joseph Good, Henry Funk, Henry Breneman, Nicholas Steman and others were the first members. Henry Steman and John Good were the first ministers.

Simon Peter Brenneman's Childhood
Teasing was very evident in my home. My older sisters used to call me "Simon Peter, Mary Alice, Jane Maria, La Doris" and emphasize the last name, "Sophia," the most. It all rhymed to them -- to me as I stood for half a day washing the dishes mom had dirtied the day before preparing for market in Lima. She baked bread, made cakes and butter, cheese, etc.
I never learned to like to peddle our produce in Lima. One time me and my brother Johnny made a special when we got tired of selling strawberries. When I told the lady they were ten cents a piece or two for a quarter, she gave me a quick lesson in mathematics!
We always seemed to have a lot of fun and a lot of scraps. I especially remember Mom asking us, with her arms folded against her chest and her palms extended, "which wall do you want me to paste you against?" Dad never could discipline us kids, he was just too soft hearted.
I remember a friend I had, Art Furry. I taught him how to cook frog legs in the sun! He didn't notice that I dropped mine in the road and only pretended to eat--while he munched away on his raw offering.
Sometimes when I was lucky enough to work away from home and make a little money, mom would make me share it with Clara. She said she had to stay home and therefore should get something for it. I didn't see it that way. Mom won.
My parents were always concerned with our welfare and wanted us to go to church. Once when Walter played sheep with Johnny and me, Dad wouldn't let us go to church for several Sundays. In order to be his little sheep, he said we would have to shear us--one swipe with the clippers from ear to ear and from our nose in front straight back over the head to the neckline! We did look funny.
He was born June 11, 1923, in Elida to John M. and Anna G. Good Brenneman, who preceded him in death. On April 21, 1946, he married Jean Yant, who survives in Lima.
Mr. Brenneman was an auctioneer for 50 years and had owned and operated Elida Auction Sales and Si Brenneman Real Estate. He had also worked for Mary Berry Real Estate and Lockwood Real Estate. He had been a masonry contractor and a farmer. He was a member of Lima Community Church of the Nazarene, where he enjoyed singing and taking part in the choir. For several years he portrayed Simon the Zealot in The Last Supper drama at Northside Mennonite Church. He was a member of the Lima Board of Realtors and the Ohio Auctioneers Association. He adored his grandchildren and prayed much for them. He loved to travel and play golf. He was an avid fan of the Detroit Lions and Tigers and the Ohio State Buckeyes.
Survivors also include two sons, Thomas L. (Dorothy) Brenneman of Canby, Ore., and Dr. James (Sharon) Brenneman of Lima; two daughters, Sally (Dr. George) Oyer of Elida and Teresa "Tesa" Brenneman of Wapakoneta; a brother, Andrew (Ada) Brenneman of Elida; two sisters, Clara Kauffman of West Liberty and Luella (Wendell) Miller of Elida; seven grandchildren, Heather Brenneman, Kari (Dan) Ferguson, Aaron (Nicole) Brenneman, Abigail Oyer, Nicole Brenneman, Leah (Gideon) Foster and Anna Oyer; a great-grandchild, Madison; several nieces and nephews; and an extended family of exchange students, whom he enjoyed, Robin Garn of Germany, Nise Manicardi of Brazil and Atsko Amao of New York City.
He was preceded in death by seven siblings, Blanche, Victor, Walter and Ralph Brenneman, Grace Yoder, and Fred and John Brenneman.
Services will begin at 2:30 p.m. Sunday at Chamberlain-Huckeriede Funeral Home. Dr. Wayne Sharpes and pastors Bobby Green and Dan Huckins will officiate. Burial will be in Salem Cemetery, Elida.
Friends may call from 2 to 4 and 6 to 8 p.m. today at the funeral home.
To Our Descendents and loved ones:
Our first date was in July of 1945. Si first remembers seeing me at my high school graduation. I remember seeing him the fall before at the annual American Grange Carnival in Elida. He did not make a big impression on me at the time because he was pretending to be drunk for the amusement of his friends.
I was surprised when he called me for a date, but we got along fine from the beginning. Our first date was to Blanchard Mennonite Church and was a double affair with Bob & Mary Louise Troyer on their first outing as well. They were married just three weeks before we were.
We chose April 21, 1946 (Easter Sunday) for our wedding date, hoping Si's brother John could make it home from the service in time to perform the duties of best man. He made it with only a few weeks to spare. I chose my sister Betty for my matron of honor. Notice in the wedding picture how Aunt Betty's face looks full--she was still swollen from her bout with mumps. Her sons John and Jesse had given them to her just after she married Alex the second of April that year.
I was apprehensive about getting the mumps myself. Old Dr. Thut said there wasn't any danger as I had them once as a child on one side. Whoops! Yes, I got them again. We came home from our honeymoon in the Smoky Mountains on Thursday. Saturday morning I was terribly swollen and didn't get out of bed for two weeks.
We had our ups and downs in those early days. No indoor plumbing and coping with coal stoves made living not exactly as you know it today. I cooked on a two burner hot plate and a laundry stove for a year. But we really didn't mind. We had things as nice as others we knew.
Tom was born and an opportunity to buy the farm on Pioneer Road came. We even borrowed the down payment, moving in March of 1948. This started our development of the farm with Si having to have a Grade-A milk house before I got a bathroom in the house. I never really understood that, but he did. It also started Si's love affair with Jersey cows.
He worked night and day to make ends meet and ever expand our holdings. Most of the time he worked two jobs (brick work, farming, butchering, auctioneering, real estate). When I met him, he was a route salesman for Plezol Bread Co. Grandpa Yant like him and asked him if he wanted to work for him and learn the carpenter trade. Daddy later decided that Si liked the masonry trade better and helped him develop skills in that capacity. He later worked as his masonry foreman on one of the church jobs.
By this time, Jim and Sally had joined our family circle. When at age six, Jim developed rheumatic fever, the doctor told us it would be good to take him south for the winter. We bought a 27 ft. house trailer and packed our little family together and left, traveling on Thanksgiving day to Florida. There, Si worked the masonry trade. He returned the week after Easter.
Si developed back trouble and we were hiring most of the farming done, what I couldn't do. We then decided to sell the farm and build a hew house, the split level. By the time we were ready to move, Teresa rounded out the family.
Several years later when I developed back trouble also, we sold that house and built another next door, sans steps and basement. We lived there about ten years.
Si's auction business was increasing and we thought we would fill the winter months by opening an auction house in the winter of 1962.. The boys helped by hauling and moving furniture. Sally operated the food concession while young Tesa circulated in the crowd. I clerked the sales. It was very successful and many people hate to see us close the doors in October of 1967.
By this time, Tom had graduated and gone off to Goshen College and Si had gotten his Real Estate license with Mary Berry. After nine months with her, he transferred his license to Lockwood Real Estate, where he stayed 12 years. He developed a close friendship with the owner, Dale Lockwood.
Jim was soon off to school and our girls were growing up. The boys met and married their wives, with Tom spending two years in voluntary service teaching in Puerto Rico before he was married.
Sally decided to go to school in South Carolina and there by started many vacation trips to that area. We were able to take several extended vacation trips through the west and south. We were even able to visit Tom in Puerto Rico.
An opportunity to build across the road in the Pioneer woods exciting our building ambition once more. We build bigger than we needed, expecting to live there a maximum of five years. The house was very appropriate for Sally's wedding reception later. Hopefully we will be building a smaller house somewhere in the same woods this summer.
Jim graduated in Veterinary Medicine and he and Sharon moved to Kentucky. Tom had moved to Oregon where Dorothy was raised. Our children were becoming scattered. We were happy when Jim and Sharon returned a year later to put their roots down in Lima.
When Sally graduated, she came home for a month before starting her internship in Music Therapy. In those few days, she met George. It was almost love at first sight for them, culminating in their marriage the next summer.
Sometimes is was a real sacrifice for us to keep you in school, but it all seems very worthwhile now to see how you have worked at your chosen professions. We want our daughter-in-laws and son-in-law to know how very much we love them and trust your mutually shared love. But even more important than anything else we can say is that we are interested in each one's spiritual welfare. As great as success is, it is dimmed by our relationship with Jesus Christ and our future live in heaven for eternity. We want all our family (and friends) with us there.
To further complete our family, God blessed Sharon and Jim with our first granddaughter. Then a year later he blessed Tom and Dorothy with our second granddaughter. Do we have any offers for a grandson? Ha! Ha! They have truly enriched our being and we love them dearly. It is beautiful to watch them grow and learn.
Tesa graduated this year from high school and has started her first year of college at the OSU Lima branch, just as all of you did. When you read this, she will be in Brazil visiting Nise for the winter. So now Dad and I have come full circle, we are alone again--and enjoying each other.
Our family circle was made richer by sharing our home with three exchange students. Robin Garn from Germany who lived with us 9 1/2 months, returned this summer to see us for seven weeks. Nise Manicardi from Brazil stayed with us six months and stole our hearts. Still an entirely different experience awaited us with Atsuko Fukada from Japan. She lived with us for 11 months. We came to love each one of them and hope to see them all again.
This spring we realized a dream of some years. In February of 1978, we purchased Joe Pantana's barber shop at 302 Kiracofe, Elida, and Dad got his broker's license. Since I had my salesman's license since 1972 (preparing for this time) I became his secretary. After much remodeling, on March 17, 1978, Si Brenneman Real Estate opened its doors for business.
We will close this by saying how very much we love each one of you and how pleased we are with the way you are conducting your lives and the lives of those you are responsible for training. We continually pray for each one of you, your children and their children for years to come, should the old world last that long. We covet your prayers as well for our future years.

Jean Yant Brenneman's Childhood
I was the youngest of four daughters. It seemed as if I would never grow up. My sisters constantly teased me and told me I was the pet. They were just jealous. They made life miserable for me by telling me I was adopted. When I told them mom said I wasn't, they would say, "She just doesn't want you to know and she just tells you that." I spent many days in that round robin.
School was always easy and I always got good grades. I had ambition to go to college and become a certified public accountant, but that was before I met your dad. Because of moving around as Daddy built churches, I was in many different schools and learned how to make friends. But you also had to leave old ones behind.
Because I was the youngest, I became a ready babysitter for my sister's children. Most of the time I didn't mind. When they worked away from home during the war, I got paid for watching their kids during the summer.
I was a freshman in high school when Pearl Harbor happened and I remember it quite well. I do not remember too much of the depression as we were just beginning to prosper when I realized anything about economics.
We took a real long trip once (at least at the time it seemed that way) to Philadelphia and Washington D. C. I remember many of the things we saw very vividly.
My parents made me feel secure and there was lots of love in our house.
One time a man came and stole some chickens from us. Several days later the sheriff shot him dead as he picked up the chickens he had stolen from us that he left in an open field.
I can also remember huddling around a stove to keep warm, and the drift of snow that came in our living room through the cracks during the winter..but we were happy.

Retired Westview math teacher dies
KRISTEN FREEMAN
Goshen News Staff Writer
EMMA, Ind. - Roger L. Brenneman, a former Westview Elementary school teacher who died Wednesday after a one and one-half year battle with cancer, is described by his co-workers as a man who loved children.
"He was a very compassionate man," said former Westview Elementary principal Phil Self. "He was one who really reached out to help any way he could and encouraged the kids to keep going in school."
Brenneman taught in a sixth grade classroom and worked closely with another sixth grade teacher, Joyce Barker. Barker said several years later they both began teaching Title I remediation and in the gifted program at the school.
"I've been teaching with him for 20 some years and I have nothing critical to say. He was a master at teaching and a master at living."
Barker said that in the Title I program she would focus more on the language arts and Brenneman would focus on the math, and was able to get the students involved.
"He gave the students the experience to form concepts through wonderful projects that they really enjoyed."
"He was a very enriching teacher who provided his students with many special projects," said sixth grade teacher, Ada Shopa.
In addition to teaching math, he was also a leader in math pentathlons, serving as the pentathlon director and co-director for 15 years with the Michiana tournament held every April.
"He was instrumental in developing the math pentathlon for the corporation and in beginning the Michiana Penthalon Tournament," said sixth grade teacher Wes Steiner. "Many of the math teams he coached won top awards at the tournament year after year."
Self and Barker agreed that Brenneman not only taught math, but other important lessons.
"He helped the students gain practical life skills that really helped them," Self said.
"He taught all the time, and not just the math, but other practical things. He taught us all," Barker said.
Brenneman retired after 36 years of teaching this June because of his battle with cancer.
"It was a hard choice," said Westview Elementary School Principal Ray Helmuth. "He wasn't ready to retire, he still had a lot of teaching left in him."
Helmuth said upon Brenneman's retirement an annual student award was created in his name.
"Our school established the Roger Brenneman Excellence in Math award, which is given to a student each year who exemplifies Roger's passion and understanding of math."
"It was Roger's sense of humor, his intellect, his creativity with students, and his dedication to his student's achievements that motivates me as a professional and a person," said current Title I math teacher Jane Snider. "He was a good friend and a void exists because of his absence in our lives."
"He was a very caring person," Self said. "He was always positive with the kids and adults. He really enjoyed teaching the kids."
"We know him as a man who practiced excellence in life and in teaching. He was a family man and a Christian who had a broad understanding of what it meant to have meaning in his life," Barker said. "He is an inspiration today, and will be in the future for us to demonstrate excellence."
His partner in life is John Snyder, born May 12, 1940. They have been together since July 26, 1967 and met in Columbus, Ohio. They now reside in NY.
now works at Proctor and Gamble as technical safety coordinator
Angela was born on March 5th during a terrible ice storm in Dallas, Texas of all places! It was only 15 degrees outside. Steve was driving me to the hospital and another car did a 360 on the ice and we almost had a head on! Steve missed the exit for the hospital. I finally made it in and the ED staff pushed me into the elevator to go to L&D. The elevator malfunctioned and came to a complete stop between floors. I thought I was about to have the baby in the elevator with only Steve & I present. When I finally got up to Labor and Delivery, my physician was on the phone and she could hear my screams. The nurses were so mean and they told me not to have the baby until they could wake up the intern or the baby would fall on the floor. I had no control! The baby was coming! The intern made it just in time & we were blessed with a red headed little girl. (I had resigned myself to the fact I'd only have boys because that is what Steve's 3 brothers had.) I arrived at hosp at approx 11:40 pm and Angela was born approx 11:50 pm!!!!! What a miracle! Angles were watching over us so we named her Angela.
