[30231] Heilika is daughter of Count Friedrich III of Pettendorf-Lengenfeld-Hopfenohe. and Sigena von Leige.
from Genealogical and Biographical Annals of
Northumberland County Pennsylvania. J. L. Floyd & Co.
REITZ PAGES 787 thru 793, 269 & 270, 463 & 464, 587 thru 589:
REITZ. This is a name now numerously represented in Washington,
Little Mahanoy and Lower Augusta townships, as well as in various
other portions of Northumberland county, founded in that section in
the middle of the eighteenth century by one George Reitz, who settled
in Washington township among the earliest pioneers of that region.
The members of the family from that time to the present have been
ranked among the substantial, respected, public-spirited and
altogether desirable citizens of this favored community, prospering
by industry, supporting the churches and all enterprises which have
for their object the uplifting of their fellow men and the
advancement of the general welfare, and in their individual lives
upholding the best traditions of their forefathers who helped to
found the best institutions of this part of Pennsylvania.
George Reitz, the pioneer of this family in Northumberland county,
settled in Washington township among its earliest residents and was a
large landowner there, his original tract including the land now
embraced in the farms of Luther Rebuck, William Rebuck, Harvey
Rothermel, Charles B. Hetrich and A. C. Adams. He is buried in an
unmarked grave near a fence, in the orchard on the farm now owned by
C. B. Hetrich. Among his children were sons Andraes and Michael.
Andraes (Andrew) Reitz, son of George, was born at Swabian Creek,
in Washington township, Jan. 1, 1755, and there passed his life,
owning and occupying the original homestead of his father, the place
where George Reitz lived, died and found his resting place. He
followed farming. He married Maria Margaretha Brosius, born May 17,
1761, who died Oct 20, 1826, and his death occurred March 16, 1837.
They are buried at Himmel's Church. Among their children were:
George, Jacob, Johan Nicholas, Philip, John, Margaret (married Daniel
Hoch), Lydia (married Michael Smith), Susan (married George Tryon or
Treon), and two other daughters whose names are not given.
Philip Reitz, son of Andraes, was born Feb. 4, 1805, in Washington
township, and died Sept 1, 1875. He owned and lived upon the farm
which is now the property of Cornelius Adams, and there all his
children were born and reared and there his death occurred. He
married Anna Wagner, who was born Oct. 5, 1807, and died Feb. 22,
1866. They are buried at Himmel's Church, of which church both were
Lutheran members. Their children were as follows: Daniel lived and
died at Tower City, Schuylkill county; Jacob lived and died at
Watsontown, this county; Harrison is mentioned below; Peter was
killed while serving in the Civil war, at the fall of Richmond;
Andrew lives in Oklahoma; Elias died young; Eliza married Samuel
Reitz; Mary married Frank Rebuck; Susan married Emanuel Conrad; Lydia
died young.
Harrison Reitz, son of Philip, was born Jan.18 1835, in Swabian
Creek, and lived in his native township until after his marriage,
moving across the Mahanoy mountain into Lower Augusta township when
he was about thirty-five years old. Here he has since made his home,
following farming. He owns two tracts in the township, one of
thirty-seven acres (upon which he resides) and one of eighteen acres,
with a substantial set of buildings upon his home tract. Mr. Reitz is
a Democrat and has served his township two years as supervisor. In
religion he is a Lutheran, and he has taken his share of the church
work, having served as deacon, elder and trustee.
In 1867 Mr. Reitz married Sarah Reitz, daughter of Henry Reitz and
his second wife, Polly (Dunkelberger), and they became the parents of
seven children, viz.: Edward died in infancy; Jane is the widow of
Wilson Raker; Joseph is unmarried; Henry I. is mentioned below; Abia
married Herman Drumheller; one son died in infancy; William,
unmarried, lives with his parents.
HENRY I. REITZ, who is now engaged in farming in Lower Augusta
township, was born in that township May 11, 1875, and received his
education in the local public schools and at Selinsgrove Academy,
which he attended during several spring terms. He received his first
license to teach in Northumberland county from Prof. Ira Shipman, his
second from Benjamin Apple, and began his work as teacher at Malick's
schoolhouse, in Washington township. He taught in all five terms, one
in Washington township, two in Upper Mahanoy and two in Little
Mahanoy. From 1900 to 1910 Mr. Reitz was employed in the silk mill at
Sunbury, in the spring of 1910 settling on the farm in Lower Augusta
township which he had purchased in 1906. This tract of sixty-seven
acres was formerly the homestead of Samuel Renn, whose father, Jacob
Renn, owned it first. Mr. Reitz intends to devote his attention
principally to farming, and if his former success is any indication
of what his future may be he will soon be ranked among the
intelligent agriculturists of his locality. The year of his location
in this district - 1910 - he was appointed a justice of the peace. He
is a Democrat in politics.
On Sept. 5, 1897, Mr. Reitz married Allie Raker, daughter of Daniel
and Annie (Dornsife) Raker, of Little Mahanoy township, and they have
one son, Clyde Emerson. The family are active in church life as
members of St. Elias Lutheran Church in Lower Augusta township.
Michael Reitz, the other son of George Reitz (the pioneer in
Northumberland county of this name) mentioned, was born in January,
1757, and owned a place of 125 acres in Washington township (where
Luther Rebuck now lives) where he died Dec. 17, 1825. His wife,
whose maiden name was Elizabeth Schnock, was a native of Berks
county, Pa., born about 1766, and made the trip to Northumberland
county on horseback. She died Dec.18, 1853, and she and her husband
are buried at Himmel's Church, of which they were pioneer members,
belonging to the Lutheran congregation. All the family were active in
the official work of this church, in which Michael Reitz held all the
offices, and in 1818, when the old stone church was erected, he acted
as building master. He was an all-around useful and prominent member
of his community, and respected accordingly. His children were:
Michael lived in Jackson (now Washington) township; George settled at
Red Bank, Pa.; John settled at Red Bank, Pa.; Jonas lived in
Washington township (where William Rebuck now lives) ; William
settled at Red Bank, Pa.; Peter lived at Richfield, Pa.; Daniel is
mentioned later; Bevvy married Johan Georg Reed; Christina married
Michael Hetrich.
(Johann) Michael Reitz, son of Michael, was born Aug.12, 1785, in
Washington township, and died July 28, 1874. He married Magdalena
Eister (also spelled Eyster and Oyster), who was born Feb.27, 1788, a
member of an early family of the Mahantango Valley, and died Oct.12,
1846. They owned and lived upon the farm which is now the property of
Harvey Rothermel (who has a tract of about ninety-eight acres), and
Michael Reitz built the dwelling which still stands on this place.
Like the other members of the family he and his wife worshipped at
Himmel's Church, being members of the Lutheran congregation, which be
served in an official capacity. Their children were: Peter, who was a
farmer in what is now Rockefeller township; Abraham, who lived in
Little Mahanoy township; Christiana, who married Michael Hoch, after
whose death she moved with her daughter Sarah, wife of Killian
Snyder, and family to Missouri, during the seventies; David, who
lived in Washington township; Leonard, who lived in Washington
township; and Jonas.
Daniel Reitz, son of Michael and brother of Michael recorded in the
above paragraph, was born Aug. 11, 1804, in Washington township, on
the farm now owned by Luther Rebuck, which was the homestead of his
father. He was a lifelong farmer, held township office, and was a
useful and respected man of his neighborhood. He and his family were
Lutheran members of Himmel's Church, in the graveyard of which many
generations of the Reitz family are buried, and there he and his wife
rest. He died Jan. 9, 1886, and his wife Susanna (Borrell spelled
"Boorel" on the tombstone), born June 26, 1810, died Jan.12, 1881.
They had fourteen children: Mary married Elias Rebuck; Jonas married
Ellemina Snyder; Samuel married Eliza Reitz; Catharine married (first)
Godfried Rebuck and (second) Andrew Rebuck; Christiana died young;
John married Polly Herb; Susanna died young; Salome married Milton
Drumheller; one son died in infancy; Elizabeth married Jared Snyder;
Michael married Alice Raker; Harriet died in infancy; Leonard married
Ellemina Shaffer; Daniel married Mary Billman.
Leonard Reitz, son of Michael and Magdalena (Eister), was born Oct
18, 1822, on his father's farm in Washington township, and was a
lifelong farmer there. He worked for his father until he was several
years past his majority, and then purchased the homestead, which he
farmed for several years before he sold it and purchased the
property now owned by his son Emanuel. This tract consists of three
parts, one of thirty-three acres, one of thirty-five acres and one of
fifteen acres, and there is a fourth tract of fifty acres of woodland,
making a total of 133 acres. Leonard Reitz died May 6, 1903, at the
advanced age of eighty years, and during his long life he was not
only a thrifty farmer but also an active citizen of his township,
serving many years as supervisor and as deacon, elder and trustee of
Himmel's Church, of which he was a Lutheran member. He was a Democrat
in political sentiment. To him and his wife Susanna, who was a
daughter of John Snyder and his wife (who was a Schollenberger), were
born six children: One son that died in infancy; Lydia, who married
John Brosius; Emanuel; one daughter that died in infancy; John, of
Washington township; and Edward, of Washington township.
EMANUEL REITZ, son of Leonard, was born Jan. 11, 1860, in,
Washington township, attended the local district schools and spent
his youthful days on the home place, working for his parents until he
was twenty one. After he attained his majority he learned the
carpenter's trade, which he followed for fifteen years, in 1896
settling down to farming upon the place where he, now lives, in his
native township. He takes his produce to Shamokin. Mr. Reitz is a
thoroughly progressive farmer and interested in the public affairs of
his locality as well as in furthering his own prosperity. For twelve
years he served as auditor of his township, elected to that office on
the Democratic ticket. He is well informed on the early history of
his family.
On Jan. 9, 1896, Mr. Reitz married Jane Drumheller, daughter of
Milton and Salome (Reitz) Drumheller, and they have become the
parents of five children: One daughter that died in infancy; Harry
Milton; Katie Susanna and Annie Salome, twins; and Walter Daniel.
Jonas Reitz, son of Michael and Magdalena (Eister), was born June
30, 1825, in Washington township, on his father's homestead, and died
April 5, 1902, at Greenbrier, to which place he had moved upon his
retirement from active life. He long owned and operated a tannery
upon the farm now owned by Frank Adam, and was a thrifty and
prosperous man, standing high among his fellow citizens for his
upright and conscientious walk in life. He married Luzetta Smith,
daughter of Michael Smith, and she preceded him to the grave, dying
Aug.13, 1874, aged fifty-one years, five months, fifteen days. They
are buried at Himmel's Church, which Mr. Reitz served as deacon.
Their family consisted of three children: Elizabeth married D. S.
Reitz and they made their home at White Church, Wyandotte Co., Kans.;
Emma married Tobias Snyder and they are prosperous farming people of
Upper Mahanoy township; James S. married Sarah Snyder.
JAMES S. REITZ, son of Jonas, merchant and postmaster at
Greenbrier, Northumberland county, was born June 10, 1860, in
Washington township, was educated in the public schools there and
spent his boyhood and youth assisting his father about the tannery.
In the spring of 1874 he began farming in Washington township,
following that pursuit for seventeen years in his native locality,
for two years cultivating his grandfather's homestead and for fifteen
years living on the farm now owned by Lewis Snyder in Upper Mahanoy
township. In 1902 he engaged in the mercantile business at
Greenbrier, succeeding S. S. Smith, and he has since operated his
general store and also a weekly huckster route to Shamokin, where he
markets his produce. This mercantile stand is one of the oldest
established in the lower section of the county, and under Mr. Reitz's
management its patronage has grown steadily, his affability and
obliging disposition winning him customers and friends from near and
far. He has been postmaster since 1902. For six years he served as
school director of Upper Mahanoy township, and for three years as
assessor of the same township, and he has long been prominent in the
local activities of the Democratic party, having served as delegate
to various county conventions. He and his family are Lutheran
members of Himmel's Church, which he has served as deacon and
trustee. During the residence of the family in Upper Mahanoy
township he was for fifteen years connected with St. John's Church
there, and served as deacon, taking part in the various enterprises
and movements of the church. In fact, he has been thoroughly
identified with all the phases of the life of the community as a
citizen who is willing to give of his time and effort for the general
good.
In 1880 Mr. Reitz married Sarah Snyder daughter of John and Judith

A file in Ancestry.com in 2014 offers: Asher Walker enlisted as a private in Company A, the 'Calhoun Escopets' Fourth Arkansas Infantry Regiment, CSA, 17 August 1861 at Mt. Vernon, Missouri. The unit was under the command of Col. Evander McNair. The Fourth served in Indian Territory in the fall of 1861, then fought at Pea Ridge in March 1862. They arrived too late for the Battle of Shiloh, but served in Price's Division, the Army of the West, in the Corinth Campaign in May-June 1862. In the fall of 1862 they participated in the battles of Richmond and Perryville, KY, and in December 1862 were reassigned to McNair's Brigade, McCown's Division. Many battles followed, including Stones River, Jackson, MS, Chickamauga, Kennesaw Mtn., Peach Tree Creek, Atlanta, Ezra Church, the siege of Atlanta, Jonesboro, and Lovejoy's Station. In the summer of 1863 they consolidated with the 4th and 34th Arkansas Infantry, and were then reassigned to D. H. Hill's Brigade for Hood's TN Campaign. Asher was a teamster for the unit at the time he was captured, in Roling, Mississippi 22 December 1863. He was sent to Military Prison at Camp Douglas, Illinois 7 November 1864, then exchanged 4 May 1865 in New Orleans, Lousiana. He married Nancy Ann Johnson 20 June 1849 in Dallas County, Arkansas. Before his death in 1913 he applied for a pension in neighboring Cottle County (application #11871). Source:
