Ronzheimer, Sr., a cabinet maker by trade, came from Prussia, Germany, during the middle of the 1800's, settling at Jordan, Minnesota. There, he met and married Amelia Young, who also had come from Germany. Charles, the son of C. C. Ronzheimer, Sr., served three enlistments of two years -each in the army during the Civil War. He later served another two years in the Indian Wars under the leadership of General Sibbley, receiving his final discharge at Salt Lake City, Utah, in 1878. On his return to Jordan, he stopped off at Valley City, having cousins, the Youngs, living there. While there he filed on a Homestead in Getchell Township, north of Valley City. He died the following winter in Minnesota. In the Spring of the next year, 1879, his widow and three sons; 16 year old Leonard Tremel by a first marriage, 14 year old Charles, and 12 year old William Ronzheimer, came to Valley City by rail to prove up on the Homestead. Some years later they traded the Homestead for a quarter section of land two miles-east and two miles north of the Homestead. They built a frame house, 1 and later acquired more land, totaling a section and an eighty altogether. During the winter months, Charles and William attended school at the St. Paul College in Minnesota. Leonard Tremel never married, but lived with and cared for his mother until she died in 1916. They had retired from farming in 1902 and lived in Valley City. The Ronzheimer brothers, Charles and William, married sisters; Frances and Ella Etzell, whose family, the Charles Etzells, had homesteaded the land that is now the Sadek farm, fourteen miles northwest of Valley City. Charles and Frances, married in 1894, bought the Southeast and Northwest quarters of Section 19 in Astabula Township, and built a frame house and barn on the Southeast quarter. This was home until 1913, when they built a complete set of new buildings on the Northeast quarter of Section 13, in Rogers Township. This is now the home of their youngest son, Leonard. Charles and Frances had six children: Arthur, who died in infancy; Myles, born in 1898; Hilda, in 1900; Anna, in 1903; Norman, in 1910; and Leonard, in 1913. Myles married Mabel MacAdam, a school teacher, in 1921. From farming to banking, he then became a Rural Carrier for 37 years at Rogers, Now retired, they are living in the re-modeled home of his Grandmother Ronzheimer. They have two daughters; Joyce, a nurse, now Mrs. Sam Bailey, living in Miami, Florida, and Merilyn, a teacher, now Mrs. Sam Richie, also living in Miami. Joyce has four daughters; Merilyn has a son and a daughter. Hilda, Mrs. Ray Kudor, now deceased, married in 1920. There were four children; Wesley, Walley, Gordon and Dorothy. Anna, Mrs. Harry Hood, lives in Valley City. Her husband, a jeweler and watchmaker, died in 1968. They have two daughters; Patricia, a photographer, living in Lewistown, Montana; Linda, Mrs. James Field, who is living with her husband at Minot, North Dakota. Both are teachers. Norman, who farmed with his brother, Leonard, many years, northeast of Rogers, never married and is now retired and living in Valley City. Leonard, still single, farms the home farm northeast of Rogers, and spends the winter months in California. Source: Barnes County History 1976 Page 208
