Co., 1902, pages 214-216 "John H. Thimmes was born in the city of Lancaster, November 1, 1853. His father, Mathias Thimmes, was a native of Baden, Germany where his birth occurred on the 24th of April, 1831. He was in his eleventh year when, in April, 1842, he was brought to the United States by his parents, Nicholas and Catherine (Snider) Thimmes, who on crossing the Atlantic to the new world took up their abode on a farm in Fairfield county, Ohio, where they resided until called to their final rest.... John H. Thimmes, whose name begins this sketch, was educated in the parochial schools of Lancaster, and at the age of twelve years began to assist his father in the meat market, which had been; established in 1848, and was conducted by his father until 1877. Our subject continued to assist in the conduct of that enterprise as an employee until his twenty-first year, when entered into partnership with his father, the connection being continued for four years. On the expiration of that period our subject purchased his father's interest in the market, continuing business alone for three years, when he entered into partnership relations with his two brothers, Christian and. Charles W., under the firm name of Thimmes Brothers. They are now carrying on an extensive butchering business and have a large building, which was erected for packing, smoking and curing of meats. There is also a cold storage in connection and the members of the firm are extensive buyers and shippers of hogs and cattle. They also feed large numbers and handle annually about thirty thousand hogs and a large number of export cattle, which they buy and ship to Baltimore, Maryland, their principal hog markets being Pittsburg, Pennsylvania, and Chicago, Illinois. The business has now assumed extensive proportions and annually brings to the partners a handsome financial return on their investments. John H. Thimmes, of this review, has been married three times. He first wedded Mary Bodenheimer, of Fairfield county, by whom he had seven children, namely: Loretta, Leah, Silas, Annie, John, Mary, and Rachel. There were no children by the second marriage. For his third wife Mr. Thimmes chose Helen Winters, the widow of Mr. Breslin. Our subject, his wife and children are all members of St. Mary's Catholic church. They have a very fine residence modern in all its appointments and supplied with all of the comforts and many of the luxuries which go to make life worthy the living. In addition to his city property Mr. Thimmes owns a fine farm of four hundred acres, where he raises cattle and hogs and where the fields are under a high state of cultivation. His life has been one of continuous activity, in which has been accorded due recognition of labor, and today he is numbered among the substantial citizens of his county. His interests are thoroughly identified with those of the northwest, and at all times he is ready to lend his aid and cooperation to any movement calculated to benefit this section of the country or advance its wonderful development." ________________________________________________ OHIO Death Certificate: 58141 -Name: John H Thimmes -Gender: Male -Death date: 3 Oct 1932 -Age at death: 79y 11m 2d -Birth date: 1 Nov 1852 -Birth place: Lancaster, Ohio -Marital status: Married -Spouse name: Jennie Thimmes -Street address: 225 S Broad -Occupation: Retired Livestock Dealer -Burial date: 6 Oct 1932 -Cemetery name: St Mary's -Father name: Mathias Thimmes -Mother name: Louise Oatney -Father birth place: Germany -Mother birth place: Ohio -Death place: Lancaster, Fairfield, Ohio
