HESEMANN FAMILY HISTORY
The original farm near Beemont, Missourii was homesteaded by Charles and
Mary Ann Davis on a Land Grant by President James Buchanan, dated June 70,
I857, consisting of 160 acres. On March 25, 1865, this land was sold to
Frederick Hesemann for a sum of $1,000. The records mention a Catherine as
his wife on April 18, 1870, when ten acres was sold to Anna Kemper and after
Frederick’s death in 1871, in a will filed August 22, 1871, his wifie, Maria .
Elizabeth, is names as Executrix. We are not sure how to explain this discrepancy
in names. According to the will, the farm was left to Frederick W.
Hesemann, his son, and $100 each to three daughters, Catherine F., Francisca
S.C., and Catherine M.
William and Caroline Christina Ploenniger [Plieninger] were probably married in the
early 1870's. Her sister, Mrs. Catherine Ruby, lived in the house just west
of the M.E. Zion church which is still standing today and according to Oscar
Hesemann, she could very well have written her mother back in Germany encouraging
her sister Caroline, to come over knowing that William was in need of a wife.
Upon the death of Anna Kemper, the ten acres from the original farm were deeded back
to the then listed owner of record William Hesemann on March 6, 1879. We do not know
if Frederick W. Hesemann is also William Hesemann or if they are two different people
and William purchased the land from Frederick.
[They were the same person - Frederick William Hesemann]
William and Catherine had thirteen children, three of whom died in infancy.
On April 1, 1882, according to the records, they donated the land for the
church and cemetery in Beemont, Missouri. Their daughter, Louise, was one of
two babies to be the first baptized in the new church.
William, Sr. was killed in a train accident near Jeffersberg [Jeffriesburg], Missouri,
on July 28, 1904 while going to the World's Fair in St. Louis, at the age of
53. His son, Edward, was with him on this trip. William's death left Catherine
to to finish raising the family, although her youngest, Oscar, was eleven at the
time and her oldest son, William, was married that year in April.
Eventually Catherine traveled between her sons’ and daughters’ homes,
living for a time with each, although a room was kept for her on the home
place. She also spent considerable time with her son, William, after the
death of his wife in 1920, helping to raise his four daughters. Catherine must
have been a very strong-willed, hard working woman. All of her children
learned how to work at an early age.
Catherine died on September 15, 1928, and thereafter each year in September,
a family reunion is held, including the descendants of the ten children. This
year, 1978, marks the 50th anniversary of the family reunions and the church
at Beemont, which Catherine and William helped establish, seems an appropriate
place for this celebration.

Place name: Jeffriesburg
Description: A town in the west central part of Union Township. The post office had been established since 1857. It was named for some members of the Jeffries family. According to Eaton, it was Elisha Betts Jeffries (1827-1855), a wealthy Virginian who held many offices in Franklin County. While serving as a member of the state legislature, he lost his life in the Gasconade Bridge disaster on November 1, 1855, and the Legislature appropriated $150 to mark his grave at Krakow (q.v.). Kiel declares, on the other hand, that the town is supposed to be named for Achilles Whitehead Jeffries, an early settler and a friend and neighbor of George Fink, the first postmaster. He came to Franklin County from Warren County, North Carolina, in 1819, and was county sheriff in 1834. A number of other people named Jeffries lived in the neighborhood.
