He lived with his son Charles and wife Eveline 1880 Census says Michael T told the census taker his mother and father were born in Germany not France Flora and Nora Lemke's letter to me in 1978. Michael T. was their grandfather. Came here with his wife in 1830 to Ohio, then Illinois, then Wisconsin. He was a blacksmith and taught his son Charles (Karl). He says his parents were born in Germany in the 1880 Census, Freedom, WI Alfred Kuno Nippert said in a letter that Michael came to USA in 1829 or 30, settled in Pennsylvania and about 1831 or 32 moved to Monroe County, Ohio. That he had 2 girls and 4 boys (who grew up, I suppose). This is what he said in his letter to someone. I have a copy of it, I think.

A Nippert was known to be the first to make ice cream in the United States. Sarsparilla too. Jerry Nippert told me these last two things. He specializes in Nipperts. And a Nippert was in the news for having a hot dog stand for the soldiers in WW2. There is a Nippert Stadium in Cincinnati, Ohio named after our ancestors. They were famous there. The stadium has been torn down in the 1990s to make way for a new one.

A Mr. Nippert was married to Maude Gamble, daughter of Mr. Gamble from Procter and Gamble.

Landed May 30th in New York with wife and 3 children after a 64-day voyage. At their arrival they went by wagon over land to Pittsburg and stayed for just a bit. Then by flatboat (broadhorn) to Powhattan Point Belmont Co. OH where they spent a few years. Another source says they moved to Monroe County, Ohio in 1831 or 1832. Michael & family lived in Sauk Co. in 1850. Louis visited them there. His wife died in 1856 and he moved in with Charles Nippert. Was living there in 1860. Michael was known as Michael A. or Michael Jean to the relatives in Ohio, but he was known as Michael T. to the Wisconsin folks. He is buried as one of the principal people at Rock Hill Cemetery. This is the guy that is Michael Hirschinger's cousin. "A great Corsican Warrior" In a history book it says "The Corsicans are of Italian stock" and that several hundred thousand Italians live in southeastern France, especially about Nice. It also says that a great number of mules are raised in the sound of France. And of course, wine. 1900 Sauk Co WI census 1840(1830) Belmont Co.
