Early Christmas At Emmanual Church, Bertha Louise Goetsch
Early Christmas At Emmanual Church, Bertha Louise Goetsch
Swiss American Historical Society Newsletter
I am of Swiss ancestry on both sides of the family. My paternal Grandfather Andreas Schifferly, b. 1811, was from Kt. Aargau. My mother was a Stalder from Lutzelfluh, b. 1851, and baptized by the eminent Jeremias Gotthelf, who was also a dear fried of the Stalder family, as well as their pastor. His novels were so much enjoyed by this family, and they carried them to the USA when they left Switzerland for Ohio, in 1853.

Early this year I received from Professor Fritz Marti the following charming note:
Dear Professor Schelbert: - Born January 1, 1894 and thus from 'the last century' I may almost earn the attention of the Historical Society. And since I am also a neighbor, you might want me over for a speech some day....

A man's life is shaped by decisions often not his own. Even before my conception it was decided what I was to be, and the date of my birth, too, was decisive.

The Marti School, 1947=1964, Fritz Marti
Swiss American Historical Society Newsletter
The Marti School was founded in 1947 in lower Salem, Ohio, first under the name of the Marti Farm Home School, and then the Berglihof School, for the benefit of the six Marti children. Dr. and Mrs. Marti felt they could not let the children waste half of their youth in the necessarily slow moving rural school of the neighborhood.

"Religion And Philosophy": Selections From Fritz Marti's Collected Papers, L. S.
Swiss American Historical Society Newsletter
For the layman the philosopher's quest is at times difficult to comprehend, and yet, we neglect his world at our own peril. Even if we do not grasp the full meaning of his answers, or worse, if we do not even understand his questions, our effort will nevertheless be rewarded. It will at least reveal that surface reality may be likened to a shield that protects from those arrows of questions that target the mysterious abyss of which we humans are all a part and whose contemplation is bound to set us free.

Memories Of My Father, Margot Ammann Durrer
Memories Of My Father, Margot Ammann Durrer
Swiss American Historical Society Newsletter
Father's childhood was spent in Feuerthalen, a small town in Canton Zurich, Switzerland. The beautiful city of Schaffhausen lies on the right bank of the Rhine and the town of Feuerthalen on the left, just above the magnificient Rhine Falls. The sharp turn of the Rhine makes a partial island of this district, so bridges form an important part of communication for the inhabitants.

Othmar Hermann Ammann, 1879-1965. His Way To Great Bridges, Urs C. Widmer, Heinz K. Meier
Swiss American Historical Society Newsletter
In 1904, O. H. Ammann, aged 25, freshly graduated civil engineer of the Swiss Federal Institute of Technology in Zurich, went to the United States encouraged by his former teacher in hydraulics, Professor Karl Emil Hilgard, who had himself worked as bridge engineer on the Northern Pacific Railway. More than anything else the young engineer wanted to widen his horizon and to gain some experience to follow-up his sound professional training, which he owed in part to Professor Wilhelm Ritter and to three years in the field in Switzerland and Germany. To his surprise he was immediately employed by Joseph …

Swiss American Historical Society Newsletter
By accident, or evolution if you will, rather than by design, this issue of the SAHS Newsletter has become a special number devoted entirely to the great Swiss-American bridge builder Othmar H. Ammann who was born one hundred years ago in Feuerthalen, Canton Zurich. Sincere thanks are due to Mr. Urs Widmer, mayor of Winterthur, whose special interest in Ammann led to the production of most of the materials used in this Newsletter, and to Dr. Margot Ammann Durrer whose personal reminiscences add a delightful human touch to the story.

Emigration: New Beginning Or Premature End? A Book Review, Heinz K. Meier
Swiss American Historical Society Newsletter
Why were certain experiments of planned emigrati.0n crowned with success while others ended in dismal failure? What went wrong in one case and turned out well in the other? What were the factors that determined the outcome of such experiments? These and similar questions arise in reading and comparing two small books, published last year in Switzerland, that deal with the history of two different emigration ventures from Switzerland to the United States of America

A Summary Of Replies To The Questionnaire On The Future Of The Swiss American Historical Society, Alice H. Finckh
Swiss American Historical Society Newsletter
In the early summer of 1978 Marianne Burkhard, of the University of Illinois, circulated a questionnaire among the members of the Swiss American Historical Society designed to probe their opinions regarding the future course of the Society. The varied responses she received run the gamut of strong support for new directions to emphatic warnings against becoming involved in expensive programs or diluting the purpose and goals of the Society. Dr. Burkhard asked me to try to summarize the responses. The first part of this report summarizes and tabulates, so far as possible; the second part condenses individual comments written on …
