History

After the 30-Years-War (1648) Pommern consisted of two areas:

Schwedish-Pommern in the West under Swedish rule and the Eastern area under the rule of the Brandenburg Electors.

 

After the defeat of Napoleon, Sweden in 1815 renounced all her claims to areas in Germany including Pommern. Pommern west of the Oder River was also called Vorpommern (Cis-Pomerania) while east of the Oder River Hinterpommern was called (Trans-Pomerania).

 

In 1938 areas from the former provinces of Westpreussen and Posen which were lost after WWI were added in an administrative reform. In 1945, Poland took all Pommern East of the Oder River (Hinterpommern) as well as the area around Stettin.

Hinter-Pommern was cleansed of its ethnic German population and given to Poland in 1945. The Western powers were silent on the ethnic cleansing. Stettin was renamed Szczecin.

Notes for HILDA JOHANNA AUGUSTA ABEN:

Hilda's baptism certificate 18 Sep 1898, signed by a Johanna Aben and a Frederick Lang.

 

My Aunt Hilda Johanna Augusta(e) Aben Theel Le Blanc Harrell turned 101 on August 15th 1999. Here are some of her thoughts and memories compiled by her family:

 

"...I was born in Ecorse Township, Michigan, USA. My father was a farmer, and later was a janitor at Horger School, Lincoln Park, Michigan. My mother was a homemaker.

 

Some of my most memorable times we had together as a family were the get-togethers at Grandpa and Grandma Backus' house. The men would sit together and talk in the back yard and the women were in the house fixing food and cleaning up. Cousin Edna (Lange) and I would go outside and play....

One hot summer day my father bought straw hats for the boys for protection from the sun. When he caught them one day without their hats, my dad took each one and held him upside down in the rain barrel. The boys always wore their hats after that!

 

My grandparents on my mother's side were the Backhaus'. They were both born in Prussia. The original spelling was later changed to Backus by the children of Amelia, my aunt. My grandfather on my father's side was Ludwig Aben. Backus and Aben both resided in what was originally Ecorse Township.

 

Grandpa Backus built a brick house, which still stands on Englewood in what is now Allen Park. We visited Grandma and Grandpa Backus often, and always on August 3rd to celebrate Grandma's birthday. She was a nice old lady. I remember one time she cooked fat pork and potatoes for me before I walked home through the fields (two farms) in the dark.

 

One day one of the Backus' sons, August, was sitting on his front porch and shot Uncle Louie's (his brother) cow which was in its own yard.

 

I remember grandpa Aben had a beard. They lived on Sanctum Line (Pepper Road) where they farmed. Grandpa also grew apricot trees.

 

One of the first memories I can recall as a child, our family lived in a log cabin and paid $300.00 a year rent. Later our landlord built a 3 bedroom house on State Street, now Southfield Road. My parents farmed 50 acres. We kids would play Hide & Seek and Tag.

 

A memorable incident I remember from my childhood is when I sang "Everybody's Doing It" (a dance called the >'Turkey Trot"). I got a whipping from my dad!

 

The only pet I had as a child was Shep, a sheepdog.

 

Christmas was different when I was a child. We were poor. We didn't have a tree. My mother would fix a soup plate for each one with a banana, an orange and an apple, a few cream candies and a few chocolate drops. I got an undressed doll one year, a premium from the Union Tea Company, that my mother bought baking powder from.

 

My mother always roasted a goose for Christmas. She raised them herself.

 

We never went to the movies. I never bought a candy bar. The only >'trip" I had was to go to the market with my mother. We took the horse and buggy!

 

I remember my mother's cooking. Fred liked her chicken soup. My favorite was her potato pancakes.

 

In my neighborhood, all of the people were farmers. William Raupp was one of the few men who didn't drink, but everyone in the area knew that Mrs. Raupp did!

 

When I started school, I was about 7 years old. My favorite subjects were Spelling and Language. I didn't like History. I went to Strowig School.

 

My favorite teacher was Hattie La Belle Johnson. She was patient. She taught all 8 grades in one room.

 

I walked to school each day - a mile each way. I liked to play baseball. [photo of Hilds's 8th grade diploma from May 29, 1912].

 

My first date - My cousin, Joe Tuchelski, took me to the Rex Theatre when I was 16. We rode the Fort Street Car.

 

I remember as a teenager, I did housework until I was 18. Then I worked for Mrs. Kretchman, whose husband owned a bar.

 

Other than housework, I was a telephone operator once. I worked at the Main Office at Woodward Avenue and Fort Street. It was a long ride by street car back and forth. I sat at the switchboard, plugging in the numbers requested. I really liked that job!

 

Rudolph Theel was the brother of Mathilda Coll, who introduced him to me. He was a good-looking red head....

 

Samuel P. LeBlanc - Sam's brother, Joe, who was a school custodian, knew my father. He told my father there was an opening for a key operator in the telegraph office at the Michigan Central Depot in Detroit. The hours were 12 midnight to 8a.m. This is where Sam worked....

 

...We bought our first house, 12894 Omaha, Detroit, for abut $4000.00.

 

Our first car was a Chalmers touring car that Sam already owned. Later he bought a Dodge sedan. Our yearly outing was a drive to the beach for swimming and a family picnic....

 

As an adult, I enjoyed several hobbies and pastimes, including - card playing, Fishing, Bowling, Crocehting, Baking/Cooking and gardening.

 

For two years I was President of the Ladies Aid of Calvary Lutheran Church in Lincoln Park, Michigan."

 

After reading this, I remember my mom said her dad raised rabbits. She had goose with apple and raisin stuffing for Christmas. When she visited us for Christmas 1978, my husband Gary roasted a goose with apple and raisin stuffing for her. I also remember that my dad drove a trolley in Detroit for awhile in the 1940's.

Hi Katie:

 

Never heard of an Indian in the family although my father always said there

was French in the family somewhere.

 

I have not found any information on ship passenger lists. When I was in Salt Lake they told me that only people who went steerage were on those lists. I know that Ferdinand and family may have gone another class.

 

Emery Aben always told me that he had seen the Backhaus name in a cemetery in Oshkosh, Wi. Know Gerald Aben - our parents were very good friends and went to the same Church (Calvary Luth in Lincoln Park) I went to High School with his brother Larry. Louise and my mom were very close.

 

to "Christine" Vol 16 - Nov 1864 to Nov 1865 may have some information.

 

I did not have a Birth or Death Date for Bertha who died at sea - Thanks

 

I am in the Downriver Genealogy Society and work in our Library (volunteer)

every Thursday. They have a small book called "Statement of Applicant for

Aid from Volunteer Relief Fund". They have applications from a Catherine

Aben/Abear/Abar for the years June 13, 1864/Dec 2, 1864/June 1, 1865 for a

Louis Aben. He was in the 5th Calvary Regiment, Co H- enliste at Trenton, MI for support of Catherine Aben, Mary E. Aben and Franklin Aben. This was

applied for in Taylor, MI.

 

I never connected the name Aben to Abear. I have a couple who always

attended my families funerals named Jake and Eleanor Abear - Maybe they are connected..
