dian of David and Cornelius.

“Susanna, sister of Balthasar and Melchior Krauss, a widow, for 20 years lives in Germantown

and owns her house and garden and her sister Maria is still living, a widow.”

[Letter, C. Hoffman, to Teuchmann June 7,1787—S. H. L.\

“Cornelius (Nice), who was a distiller, settled in Cresheim, now called Chestnut Hill and owned two tracts of land,

one containing fifty-six acres in Cresheim and one containing about ten acres in Germantown. He died about the year

1760, and left a wife named Susanna and ten children; John being the oldest, got the land at a valuation made by the

Court.

They became the parents of fifteen children, the following five of whom are still living: John and Samuel (twins)

age seventy-nine years; Margaret, wife of Reuben Myers, aged seventy-seven years; Caroline, wife of Abraham Kulp,

aged seventy-one years and Harper, aged sixty-nine years. John Nice died in September, 1851, and his wife Sarah a few

months later. It is a remarkable case that of all these family connections there are but two families who do not live

within a radius of fifteen miles from the old homestead. The total number of descendants of the subject of this sketch

was 355 of whom 266 are now living.”

Nice Reunion was held on the old homestead farm opposite Lawnton Station on the north Penn. Railroad.

Eugene E. Nice read a paper on the family. [.Vice papers, Vol. 1, p 165, Newspaper clipping.]

Rosanna Krauss Hunsberger was said to be connected with family of Rev. Ephraim Hunsberger

who moved from Upper Hanover, Pa., to Wadsworth, Ohio, but it was impossible to verify this state­

ment.

Balthasar Krauss is said to have been a man of great strength. Tradition states that he served in

the Revolutionary War, and that when the baggage wagons would get stuck in the mud ho would put

his shoulder under the axle and lift the wagon out of the mud. (Albert Krauss [11- 259].)

Various members of the Krauss family are said to have possessed great strength, judging by the

traditions handed down in the various families, and the stories of great loads having been carried by

them. It is said that the late Jacob Krauss [11-58] could lift exceptionally heavy loads with his teeth.

In the will of William Nice prob. 1782, Charles is only child named. He bequeathed to Charles

and Hester Hubbs each £5. Executors: Nimrod Nice and Elizabeth Hubbs, wife. Both buried in

Mennonite burial grounds, Germantown.

2. Jacob.

Jacob and Samuel, sons of Henry, probably died before sons of Abraham were so named.

In the will of Henry Rittenhouse, miller of Roxborough, Phila., probated Mar. 8, 1<69, he be­

queaths to Mary, “my beloved wife,” instead of dower “my mills, messuages, lands and all my real

estate. My eldest two sons, William and Cornelius (under 21). My seven children. William, Cornelius,

Susanna, Ann, Samuel, Mary, Jacob.” Executors: “Mary, my wife, Nicholas, my brother. The

will was signed June 18, 1768.

In 1815 Abraham Rittenhouse made a will in which he bequeathed 850 to the Mennonite Meeting

House of Germantown; 850 to his house-keeper; and the balance to his three sons. Enoch, Samuel, and

Jacob. This makes it appear that his wife Mary preceded him in death. In 1S25. Enoch Rittenhouse

of Roxborough, miller, gave deed, wife did not join in deed. Indicates he was not married then. In

his will he bequeaths most of his Estate to his cousins’ children, and mentions his brother Jacob, but

not his brother’s children, which would indicate that his brother Jacob had no children, and that Enoch

himself was not married. The family seems to have died out.

John Krauss, probably the most scholarly of the Schwenkfelder pupils who attended the Hosen-

sack Academy, was born, lived, and died in Kraussdale, Pa. After leaving the Academy Apr. Krauss

attended a private school at Chestnut Hill, Philadelphia, where he became associated with David

Rittenhouse, the astronomer. John Krauss was a man of many activities; he is said to have become a

surveyor in 1784, at the age of fourteen, probably as a pupil of his neighbor, David Schultz. He also

served as teacher in the Hosensack Academy as a young man. He is said to have been a farmer by

occupation, a pipe organ builder by trade, and a surveyor by profession, spending his spare time in the

study of higher mathematics including navigation and astronomy. Tradition says that he was never

known to be idle, that he always had a book in his hands when sitting down. Thus by improving his

spare moments he became a very learned man for his time and became a prominent surveyor, a skillful

mechanic, and an accomplished mathematician. He is said to have calculated an eclipse of the sun

that took place forty years afterwards, the time of the eclipse verifying his calculations. It is also

said that as a young man when hauling farm products to Philadelphia he stopped at a hotel where a

group of sailors were also putting up for the night. These sailors were gathered around a table evidently

in deep thought. Young Krauss stood back of them looking over their shoulders for a time, and noticed

that they were trying to solve a problem in navigation, but after spending a long time in making their

calculations they were forced to give up the problem. The young man volunteered to solve the problem

for them—they looked at him in amazement, thinking that it would be impossible for this rough,

country lad to solve a problem in navigation that they could not master, but in a short time Air. Krauss

solved the problem to their complete satisfaction.

John Krauss and his brother, Andrew, first started the building of organs for which the Krauss

family long had a fine reputation. He also built wool carding machines when not busy with surveying

and farming. There are preserved in the Schwenkfelder Historical Library at Pennsburg more than a

dozen books written by John Krauss. His great-great-grandson, Charles O. Krauss of Philadelphia,

has in his possession diaries kept by John Krauss covering a number of years. His books are models of

nea tness and accuracy. The most unique is a book describing the making of sun dials. This is illustrated

 

with most exquisite drawings and explains the method of making sun dials at various angles, and

consists of fifty-four pages.

The year 1791 must have been an exceedingly busy one for this young man. We find at least

seven manuscript books which he wrote during this period. The following are some of the interesting

titles:

Die Taologische Dogmatic oder algemeine Einleitung in die Glaubnessen unsern allerheiligsten Christ-

In 1794 he wrote a manuscript folio in English consisting of one hundred and thirty-two pages,

entitled “John Krauss—his Practical and Theoretical Arithmetic.” Many of his drawings made

while surveying are preserved, as are also his compass and chain afterwards used by his son, Anthony,

and grandson, Isaac, who also followed the occupation of surveyors.

In 1812 he began the manufacture of agricultural machinery. This business was carried on success­

fully by his son, Anthony, and his grandsons, Isaac, Harrison, and James, until recent years. As a

surveyor, scrivener, manufacturer, neighbor and citizen, John Krauss stood high in the estimate of his

fellowmen.

The Krauss Family As Organ Builders And Inventors

Balzer or Balthasar Krauss who came to Pa. with his mother who became a widow on the journey,

her husband, Melchior, dying in Haarlem (vid. [11]) settled near the village of Kraussdale, Montg. Co.,

Pa. It seems that one of the articles he brought with him from the old country was a tuning-fork which

seems to have been the only musical instrument permitted amongst the Schwenkfelders at that time.

Balthasar Krauss had a son Balthasar who in turn had three sons, John, Andrew, and George.

These men evidently were men of superior quality and had in them the composite elements of genius,

and developed marked mechanical ability. However, after a generation had passed away, the above

named tuning-fork no longer satisfied the musical instincts of these men, for wo find that in 1790 while

the boys were still in their teens, with the aid of their father they planned and built a pipe-organ, the

firs! tn that section of the country. It must also be remembered that these men had no tools with which

to work until the village blacksmith forged the necessary tools in his shop.

 

1.1

II

II . *n^S investing to conjecture as to how the idea of making pipe organs developed in the Krauss

family, tor the Schwenkfelder Society to which they belonged excluded organs as well as other musical

• instruments from their places of worship.

. However, we know that the members of the Krauss family at this time belonged to a “Literary

Society” that existed in this section, which was very active, and by means of which books and other

intellectual helps were exchanged, and a mutual interest as to the general welfare of its several members

. was manifested.

One of the members of this society was Rev. F. W. Geisenheiner who in 1793 became pastor of St.

Paul’s Lutheran Church. Upon learning that the Krauss boys had built a pipe organ for amusement

he urged them to continue the work in order to supply the demand for organs in the churches of Pa., as

but few organs were manufactured in this country at that time, and most church organs had to be

imported from England or Germany. But when they argued with him that the ‘ ‘Schwenkfelder Society, ’ ’

as then constituted, would not look upon such a project with favor, he asked them to show him the

difference in the wrong of using their grandfather’s tuning-fork to aid their vocal devotions or of using

an instrument of greater proportions. This settled the matter for them and although there was quite

a stir for a while in the Schwenkfelder Church when the Krauss family started the construction of

“music boxes,” and as a result of which the Krausses left the faith of their grandfather, nevertheless,

they continued in their pioneer, work of organ building.

The first Church organ they built is said to have been completed in 1796, and was placed in Long

Swamp Church in Perks Co., a few miles from their home. Although it was rebuilt several times by

various members of the Krauss family it was still in use within recent years. It is said to have con­

tained 575 pipes, and was made of solid walnut, being 16 feet high and 11 feet wide. After this the

three brothers devoted much attention to the building of pipe organs.

The diary and account book of John Krauss, the elder brother, shows that in 1807 they received

£262 and 10s. for an organ placed in St. Paul’s Lutheran Church, Red Hill, Pa. This diary also shows

that they built piano-fortes, one having been sold in 1806 for $55.00.

One of the largest organs they constructed was for the Roman Catholic Church of the Alost Blessed

Sacrament, at Bally, Berks Co., Pa. This organ was in use more than 100 years. In 1814 Zion's

Lutheran Church of Phila. made an agreement with the Krauss brothers for the construction of an

organ. It is stated that this organ is still preserved as a relic. Many of the agreements for the.manu­

facture of these organs are still preserved in the Krauss family, while others were given to different

congregations for their local historical value.

In 1812 the elder brother, John, retired from the pipe organ business, and followed other pursuits,

notably that of a busy and successful surveyor. He was also an astronomer of note, having studied

astronomy under David Rittenhouse. He also is said to have built wool-carding machinery.

One of the agreements preserved shows that in 183/ a dispute arose concerning the organ that was

being constructed for “Sassaman’s Church”; as a result of which dispute the unfinished organ was

removed from the church and installed elsewhere.

Andrew Krauss died in 1841, having made 48 organs, an average of about one a year. Several

years prior to his death he removed to Palm, Pa., where his sons and grandsons continued their trade

in the same shop which is still standing (1920). George and Joel Krauss, sons of Andrew, continued

in the wake of their father, assisted in some mechanical respects by their brother, Samuel. However,

George Krauss and his son, Edwin B., of Palm, were the leaders. Their business of organ building has

given wide fame to their family name and their place of residence. They made good the inventive

genius and mechanical skill inherited from their father.

George, Joel, and Samuel Krauss also achieved marvelous success in 1823 when they were desirous

of organizing a string band. Desiring a bass-violin, and the purchase of one being out of the question,

it is stated that they went to Phila., examined and measured an imported instrument, returned home

and set to work to manufacture one. The brass cock-wheels fastened to the tuning pegs were made by

Samuel, who was also a clookmaker. A plate of ivory on the ebony scroll contains the name of the

maker and the year 1823. This instrument was still in good condition in recent years. Other violins

were made, and Joel made a beaked flute of boxwood, with an ebony mouth piece, still in good condi­

tion. It has brass keys and is mounted with three elephant tusk rings. While still a young man George

Krauss made an electrical machine which was quite marvelous when we consider how little was known

about elec trinity in those days.

Samuel Krauss located at Sumneytown, Pa., and was the manufacturer of the famous grandfather

clocks that bring such fabulous prices in these days. His most noted invention was a clock and globe

combination. Doubtless this magnificent contrivance was suggested by his uncle John, the astronomer

 

This device showed the earth in its planetary relations revolving on its axis, the meridian always

being in the position with that of the sun. Only parts of this chronosphere remain, as the original,

falling into hands that were unable to appreciate its uniqueness and historic value, was demolished.

The construction of organs by hand was continued by Edwin B. Krauss at Palm, Pa., until within

recent times, when the perfection of mechanical devices reduced the time of building organs to such an

extent that making them by hand was no longer profitable. One of the last pipe organs made by Mr.

Krauss is now in the Auditorium at Perkiomen School, Pennsburg, Pa.

The inventive talent in the Krauss family also manifested itself in Anthony Krauss [11-48], son

of John, who was the inventor of the four-horse-level-power and threshing-machines, that were such a

boon to the agricultural districts until displaced by the modern gasoline driven threshing-machines.

Rev. Charles S. Wieand was graduated from Franklin and Marshall College in June, 1874. Even

before his graduation. Rev. Dr. C. Z. Weiser, who lived next door to his home in East Greenville, Pa.

at the time. urged that after Air. Wieand’s graduation he should open a private school in East Green­

ville.

Air. Wieand was loath to do this as his plan was to enter the Reformed Theological Seminary at

Lancaster, Pa. in order to prepare for the regular ministry. Dr. Weiser, however, urged so strongly the

necessity of founding a school in this section in which he was particularly interested that Mr. Wieand

allowed himself to be diverted from his original plan, chose a plot between East Greenville and Penns­

burg, Pa. on the line dividing the two boroughs, laid out roads and built a home and school combined.

Dr. Weiser had pledged himself to share the responsibility of instruction in the school, but he soon

wearied of this and the whole responsibility,financial as well as educational, devolved upon Mr. Wieand.

Before opening the school in the fall of 1875, Mr. Wieand had married a talented lady, Miss

Leonora Al. Sell who had studied abroad for two years, and who assisted him by giving instruction in

music and foreign languages. Her dowry had made the school possible, but the school was not a finan­

cial success owing to lack of support from the residents of the section and to the fact that the Normal

Schools, having State aid, could afford to take pupils at much lower rates than could Perkiomen

Seminary.

For nine years Air. and Airs. Wieand made their home in the school and carried it on with many

impediments and little support from those who had pledged aid, when at Christmas time in 1883,

diphtheria broke out in their family and in a week deprived them of three of their four children—and

weakened Air. Wieand’s constitution to such an extent that he had to give up the school.

During the years at the school in addition to teaching Mr. Wieand had been studying theology

with Dr. Weiser, and he was licensed by the classis of Goshenhoppen in 1880. In 1883 he was ordained

by the same classis and installed as pastor of the Chestnut Hill congregation in Lehigh Co., Pa.,which

congregation he served for one year while still principal of Perkiomen Seminary. During part of this

time he also supplied the Zion’s congregation in Pottstown, Pa., and in 1884 accepted a call from that

congregation, removed to Pottstown, and was installed as pastor of the Zion’s charge. For twenty-

four years he labored here, building up a congregation, which owing to a church fight had been divided,

from 60 to over 500 members. A chapel was completed, a parsonage was built, a new pipe organ was

installed and the church was renovated three times.

In 1908 Air. Wieand resigned and for five years served charges which happened to be without a

regular pastor, the Schwenksville, the Great Swamp-Chestnut Hill, and the Shonkel charge in Chester
