    SS Havel
    The HAVEL was built by AG Vulcan, Stettin in 1890 for Norddeutscher Lloyd [North German Lloyd]. This was a 6,875 gross ton ship, length 463ft x beam 51.9ft, two funnels, three masts, single screw and a speed of 18 knots. There was accommodation for 244-1st, 122-2nd, and 460-3rd class passengers. Launched on 30/8/1890, she sailed from Bremen on her maiden voyage to Southamptom and New York on 5/2/1891. She commenced her last voyage on this service on 19/4/1898 and was then sold to Spain, where she was converted to an armed cruiser and renamed METEORO. In 1899 she went to Compania Trasatlantica Espanola and was renamed ALFONSO XII. She commenced her first voyage from Bilbao to Coruna, Vigo, Havana, and New York on 30/10/1916 and made 9 round voyages on this service. Her last voyage started on 7/2/1918 when she left New York for Coruna and Bilbao. In 1926 she was scrapped in Italy. [North Atlantic Seaway by N.R.P.Bonsor, vol.2,p.555]

    • 1. This passenger list states the 'Native Country' for 'Antonin Weber' was Bohemia. I place reasonable doubt that he came from Bohemia. A reasonable assumption might be that Antonin may have lied about his place of origin and also may have lied about his age.
      2. His citizenship papers state the following:
      "Came to U.S. before he was eighteen" and "that he emigratied to the United States and landed at the port of New York on or about the 15th day of Nov., 1892." This is puzzling, since the passnger list for the S.S. Lahn clearly shows that he arrived after this date. Since Anthony did not apply for citizenship until several years later, he may have simply forgotten the emigration date, however the date is quite specific.
      3. To support item 2 above, we find the following in a Watertwon Daily Times newspaper obituary (1939) for Anthony Webert: "He came to this country with his mother about 53 years ago, his father having died in Germany, and the family lived first in the town of Clayton." That would make his year of arrival in N.Y. 1886, which doesn't correspond with either the the passenger list information or his naturalization papers. However, the fact that this obituary says "He came to this country with his mother" corroborates with the fact that we see a name very close to his on the passenger list and that Elisab. Webert and her daughter Karolina (Caroline) appears very close to him in the list. This is convincing evidence that the passenger list is correct and that it is in fact Anthony Webert who is referred to as 'Antonin Weber' in the pasennger list.
      4. A Tomas Weber appears next to Antonin and is also 18 years old. I have no idea who Tomas Weber is. Perhaps he was a brother or a cousin?
      I do not know of a Tomas Weber in Jefferson County, N.Y., unless I am missing something.

      JOSEPH EMOND HOUSE ON EVANS MILLS HIGHWAY

      In spite of the modern exterior appearance created
      by the comparatively new open and enclosed porches this
      native limestone house owned by T. Bernard Casey and
      wife, Marion Casey, is probably approximately 120 years
      old. It stands on the north side of the Watertown-Evans
      Mills state highway at the east corner of the Sanford's
      Corners-Pamelia road and is believed to have been built
      by Joseph Emond some time after the mid-summer of
      1828.
      Joseph Emond, born in France about 1785 served
      seven years under Napoleon including the peninsular campaign
      of 1813, in which was the battle of Vittorio. He
      came to the United States about 1828 and on August 25
      of that year contracted to buy an estimated 55 acres of
      land in the area where this house is. It is said that he
      immediately set about clearing off the forest and on July
      18, 1835, a deed of the tract was delivered to him by Moss
      Kent, Plattsburgh, from whom he purchased the property.
      He died Aug. 19, 1840, his widow, Marie Adelaide, and
      children surviving.
      A son, John B. Emond, who was born in France in
      1820, is said to have later taken over the farm and increased
      its acreage to a total of 300, becoming a successful
      farmer. His wife was the former Marietta Meeker, daughter
      of Mr. and Mrs. Barney Meeker, and their children
      were John F. and Louis N. Emond, both of whom lived to
      maturity and several years beyond.
      Educated in the common schools of the district John
      F. Emond worked on his father's farm until 1874 when
      he purchased 160 acres of it. To this he later added a
      couple of tracts and became one of the largest dealers and
      pressers of hay in the county. In 1872 he married Matilda
      Spohn and they had one daughter, Mary Belle Emond who
      was twice married: First in 1909 to Walter Lashaw who
      died in 1914; and, second to Anthony Webert in 1916,
      from whom she separated in a few years.
      Her father, John F. Emond, was one of the most
      successful farmers in the town of Leray. He was a
      staunch Democrat but for six years, 1898-1903 inclusive,
      was supervisor of his town. He died April 26, 1909, and on
      Dec. 9, 1912, his widow died. Their daughter, Mary Belle,
      inherited the stone house and farm. When she died Oct.
      25, 1938, the stone house, under the provisions of her will,
      went to the town of Leray to be used as a town library,
      there going with it a bequest of $500 for the purchase of
      books. However, July 5, 1940, the town board passed a
      resolution declining to accept the property on the ground
      that it was in open country too far from villages and
      would cost too much to maintain,
      Anthony Webert, her second husband, died April 30,
      1939, and on July 24, 1941, Walter Webert, Black River,
      his administrator and sole distributee conveyed the stone
      house and about two acres of land to Mr. Casey, the present
      owner, employe of the New York Air Brake company,
      who commutes daily to this city.

      While Driving along through Public Square about noon to-day over the pavements rendered greasy by the recent rain mixing with the oil and gasoline from numerous automobiles, Anthony Webert, a farmer from Brownville, met with an accident which cost him the life of his valuable carriage horse, a family pet. A short distance east of the Woodruff House archway the animal slipped and fell prone upon it's left side, sustaining internal injuries and dying upon the pavement within a few minutes. Thomas Burns, a veterinary surgeon, who was summoned, was able to do nothing for the dying animal.

      Anthony Webert, though Chapman & Mott, presented a claim for $150, alleging that a horse owned and driven by him across Public Square on Aug. 6, 1910, slipped to the pavement and died almost immediately. It is charged in the claim that the city is responsible, because the city negligently permitted large quantities of oil to be drawn across said Square in a leaky wagon or wagons, from which the oil escaped to the pavement in large quantities, causing the death of the claimant's horse. Referred to the board of audit.

      ------

      The city won out in the suit brought by Anthony Webert to recover damages for injuries to a horse sustained by falling upon a slippery spot in Public Square caused by oil being permitted to lay upon the pavement. After hearing the evidence of the plaintiff, Judge Reeves granted a motion of City Attorney Isaac R. Breen for a non-suit.
      The oil was being delivered by James B. Wise in a sprinkling cart, which leaked and permitted it to drip upon the pavement, according to the witnesses sworn by Chapman & Mott, attorneys for Mr. Webert. A considerable quantity of the oil accumulated on the street and upon this Mr. Webert claims his horse slipped, sustaining severe injuries. Negligence on the part of the city was charged in permitting the slippery condition to exist upon the pavement.

      ________

      PAMELIA FARMER HAD THE
      MONEY IN HIS OVERCOAT
      POCKET.

      "I Will never carry a pocketbook again.", said Anthony Webert, a farmer residing in Pamelia, this morning, when he was relating the loss of $105 in cash and a check for $35. The check was endorsed and one would find little trouble in cashing it.
      The las he saw of the roll of bills and the check was when he stopped in front of Sam Ray's store on Court street last night, and purchased some vinegar, while on his way home. Webert says it had been raining and he had the money in an overcoat pocket which he was wearing. He says he did not alight from the rig, but called out his order and the vinegar was brought out to him.
      He says he though he put the pocketbook back in his pocket aftwerward and drove home, traversing Court street, Main street, and Bradley street. He never thought of the money again until this morning, but when he went to look for it, it had dissappeared.
      Mr. Webert says that he was alone all the way home, and was sure that it had not been stolen.
      He received the money for the sale of cattle yesterday and carried it to the city with him when he brought some of his relatives here after they had spent Labor day at his home.

      JOSEPH EMOND HOUSE ON EVANS MILLS HIGHWAY

      In spite of the modern exterior appearance created
      by the comparatively new open and enclosed porches this
      native limestone house owned by T. Bernard Casey and
      wife, Marion Casey, is probably approximately 120 years
      old. It stands on the north side of the Watertown-Evans
      Mills state highway at the east corner of the Sanford's
      Corners-Pamelia road and is believed to have been built
      by Joseph Emond some time after the mid-summer of
      1828.
      Joseph Emond, born in France about 1785 served
      seven years under Napoleon including the peninsular campaign
      of 1813, in which was the battle of Vittorio. He
      came to the United States about 1828 and on August 25
      of that year contracted to buy an estimated 55 acres of
      land in the area where this house is. It is said that he
      immediately set about clearing off the forest and on July
      18, 1835, a deed of the tract was delivered to him by Moss
      Kent, Plattsburgh, from whom he purchased the property.
      He died Aug. 19, 1840, his widow, Marie Adelaide, and
      children surviving.
      A son, John B. Emond, who was born in France in
      1820, is said to have later taken over the farm and increased
      its acreage to a total of 300, becoming a successful
      farmer. His wife was the former Marietta Meeker, daughter
      of Mr. and Mrs. Barney Meeker, and their children
      were John F. and Louis N. Emond, both of whom lived to
      maturity and several years beyond.
      Educated in the common schools of the district John
      F. Emond worked on his father's farm until 1874 when
      he purchased 160 acres of it. To this he later added a
      couple of tracts and became one of the largest dealers and
      pressers of hay in the county. In 1872 he married Matilda
      Spohn and they had one daughter, Mary Belle Emond who
      was twice married: First in 1909 to Walter Lashaw who
      died in 1914; and, second to Anthony Webert in 1916,
      from whom she separated in a few years.
      Her father, John F. Emond, was one of the most
      successful farmers in the town of Leray. He was a
      staunch Democrat but for six years, 1898-1903 inclusive,
      was supervisor of his town. He died April 26, 1909, and on
      Dec. 9, 1912, his widow died. Their daughter, Mary Belle,
      inherited the stone house and farm. When she died Oct.
      25, 1938, the stone house, under the provisions of her will,
      went to the town of Leray to be used as a town library,
      there going with it a bequest of $500 for the purchase of
      books. However, July 5, 1940, the town board passed a
      resolution declining to accept the property on the ground
      that it was in open country too far from villages and
      would cost too much to maintain,
      Anthony Webert, her second husband, died April 30,
      1939, and on July 24, 1941, Walter Webert, Black River,
      his administrator and sole distributee conveyed the stone
      house and about two acres of land to Mr. Casey, the present
      owner, employe of the New York Air Brake company,
      who commutes daily to this city.

      Mrs. Elizabeth Webert, widow of Philip Webert, was found dead in bed this morning at the home of her daughter, Mrs. Eugene Roubie, 823 Bronson Street, at the age of 75 years. Memorial Day was spent by Mrs. Webert with a visit to her son in Pamelia, and she returned home Sunday afternoon in apparently good health.

      Mrs Webert was born in Germany 75 years ago, coming to this country when young. She had made her home in this city for about two years. She is survived by five sons, Frank of Pamelia, John of Omar, Rudolpf and William of Lafargeville, and Anthony of Pamelia, and four daughters, Mrs. Frederick Schaer, of Los Angeles, Cal., Mrs. Eugene Roubie, Mrs. John Schoeb, and Miss Caroline E. Webert, of Watertown.

      The name of Eva's mother "Pamelia Walts" as stated on the death certificate is incorrect. Eva Bigger's mother was Margaret VanBrocklin, who died in 1885. Cornelia Walts was the name given as Eva's mother's maiden name on the Marriage Certificate (Eva Biggers and Anthony Webert) dated January 9, 1901. The 1880 census shows a Cornelia (20 yrs old) as a step-daughter to John Biggers (head of household). It would make sense that Cornelia may have been taking care of Eva (then 10 months old) if Margaret (wife) was ill or incpacitated and unable to care for Eva.

      JOSEPH EMOND HOUSE ON EVANS MILLS HIGHWAY

      In spite of the modern exterior appearance created
      by the comparatively new open and enclosed porches this
      native limestone house owned by T. Bernard Casey and
      wife, Marion Casey, is probably approximately 120 years
      old. It stands on the north side of the Watertown-Evans
      Mills state highway at the east corner of the Sanford's
      Corners-Pamelia road and is believed to have been built
      by Joseph Emond some time after the mid-summer of
      1828.
      Joseph Emond, born in France about 1785 served
      seven years under Napoleon including the peninsular campaign
      of 1813, in which was the battle of Vittorio. He
      came to the United States about 1828 and on August 25
      of that year contracted to buy an estimated 55 acres of
      land in the area where this house is. It is said that he
      immediately set about clearing off the forest and on July
      18, 1835, a deed of the tract was delivered to him by Moss
      Kent, Plattsburgh, from whom he purchased the property.
      He died Aug. 19, 1840, his widow, Marie Adelaide, and
      children surviving.
      A son, John B. Emond, who was born in France in
      1820, is said to have later taken over the farm and increased
      its acreage to a total of 300, becoming a successful
      farmer. His wife was the former Marietta Meeker, daughter
      of Mr. and Mrs. Barney Meeker, and their children
      were John F. and Louis N. Emond, both of whom lived to
      maturity and several years beyond.
      Educated in the common schools of the district John
      F. Emond worked on his father's farm until 1874 when
      he purchased 160 acres of it. To this he later added a
      couple of tracts and became one of the largest dealers and
      pressers of hay in the county. In 1872 he married Matilda
      Spohn and they had one daughter, Mary Belle Emond who
      was twice married: First in 1909 to Walter Lashaw who
      died in 1914; and, second to Anthony Webert in 1916,
      from whom she separated in a few years.
      Her father, John F. Emond, was one of the most
      successful farmers in the town of Leray. He was a
      staunch Democrat but for six years, 1898-1903 inclusive,
      was supervisor of his town. He died April 26, 1909, and on
      Dec. 9, 1912, his widow died. Their daughter, Mary Belle,
      inherited the stone house and farm. When she died Oct.
      25, 1938, the stone house, under the provisions of her will,
      went to the town of Leray to be used as a town library,
      there going with it a bequest of $500 for the purchase of
      books. However, July 5, 1940, the town board passed a
      resolution declining to accept the property on the ground
      that it was in open country too far from villages and
      would cost too much to maintain,
      Anthony Webert, her second husband, died April 30,
      1939, and on July 24, 1941, Walter Webert, Black River,
      his administrator and sole distributee conveyed the stone
      house and about two acres of land to Mr. Casey, the present
      owner, employe of the New York Air Brake company,
      who commutes daily to this city.
