The spelling of the Samler name was changed from Semmler to Samler during the emigration of Chris Samler and his two brothers David and John...They left Lichtental, Akkerman, Bessarabia, Russia--now Moldova and Ukraine--in 1907...Chris...entered the United States via Canada at age 19 and lived with other German speaking families northwest of St. Francis. Since he spoke and read virtually no English, he tried attending one of the country schools along with the children during the winter months. His pride, however, did not permit him to persevere in this endeavor so he dropped out quickly… Lizzie...came to the new world with her parents when she was about 4 years old. She grew up in the St. Francis area. Chris and Lizzie spent most of their lives on a farm in northwest Cheyenne County. Chris was a talented judge of cattle and had great pride in his workhorses. He was probably one of the last farmers to relinquish horsepower for tractor-drawn equipment. In the early 1930s he built a large horse barn of native rock. Its walls will probably still be standing many generations from now...
