Banns read 21st and 28th of November and 5th of December. Married December 12, 1824.
Shaumberg-Lippe was a former principality founded in 1613 and is now part of Lower Saxony. It undoubtedly included the towns of Probsthagen and Stadthagen (where Frederich's wife, Dorothea, was born and baptized) due to their proximity. Johann was a shoemaker.

Dorothea came to the United States 1856, departing Bremen on the bark "Suwa" on September 12, 1856 and arriving in Baltimore, Maryland on November 19, 1856. She is listed on the ship manifest as "Ernestine" (age 54). Also on the ship are: Adolph (age 13), August (age 16), Caroline (age 19) and Wilhelm (age 24). Mrs. Jaworski's review of the passenger list shows that a Fritz (age 21) was also on the ship. According to a letter dated February 16, 1988, from Niedersaechsisches Staatsarchiv in Bueckeburg to Mary Jean Stolte Jaworski, at the time of her departure, Dorothea was a widow, peasant woman living at Wendthagen, No. 55, near Stadthagen in Schaumberg-Lippe. She traveled with three sons: Friedrich Wilhelm (age 21), a second son (age 15) and a third son (age 12), and two daughers. (Mrs. Jaworski believes that Friedrich Wilhelm was not Dorothea's son and that the second daughter did not survive the trip.)
Dorothea was preceded to America in 1848 by her daughter Sophia and one other daughter.
According to Jordan, John W., "A Century and a Half of Pittsburg and Her People," v. III, Lewis Publishing Company (1908), Dorothea and her children arrived in Baltimore, Maryland after a voyage of six weeks and three days.

132. Marianne ROHRKASTE was born on May 21, 1913 in Pittsburgh, Allegheny Co., Pennsylvania. According to an article in December 15, 1940 edition of The Pittsburgh Press, Marianne was a professional dancer. The article describes how her 18-month old son, named Robert Lance (who goes by "Lanny"), travels by car with her around the country while she fulfills dancing engagements. The article notes that Marianne is divorced.
It is not clear from the article whether "Lance" is Lanny's surname or middle name. Given that Marianne was divorced from Robert Bruce Barnhart in 1935, it is unlikely that he is the father, suggesting that "Lance" is Lanny's surname.

The following obituary was published in the Pittsburgh Post-Gazette on November 19, 2002:
McKEETON, PAUL P. "SARGE" Age 84, on Monday, November 18, 2002 of Baldwin Boro, husband of the late Emma Lou (Fogerty) [sic. Fogarty]; father of David M. (Patti) and Paula C.; grandfather of Amber & Ryan McKeeton and Rich, Stanley & Bethany Hemingway. Paul was a WWII veteran serving as a sergeant in the 668th Bomber [sic.

SLATER FUNERAL HOME, INC., 4201 Brownsville Road, Brentwood, Tuesday, 2-4 & 7-9pm, where Funeral Services will be held on Wednesday at 9:30am.
The following thoughts were prepared by John F. and Audrey F. Johnson, Paul's brother- and sister- in-law for use by Pastor Daniel Strussenberg in connection with the homily for Paul's funeral. They are unedited.
SOME REMEMBRANCES OF PAUL MC KEETON: Paul often talked about his days on the swimming team when he and his brother were champion swimmers. Paul was most proud of his service to his country in World War II and would recite war stories at every chance. He told these stories over and over for years after the war. He relished in his nickname "Sarge." At family gatherings he would make all his nephews stand at attention and show them how to salute. He had the most respect for the American flag and displayed the flag every day at his home on Judith Drive in Baldwin. He was a man in perpetual motion and kept moving--moving in every activity. He was an early riser and when it snowed, he would clear the neighbors' driveways with a 4 x 4 piece of plywood before going to work. His main occupation was warehouse management and he would arrive at all his "posts" before any other employee to organize his paper work. He kept meticulous records. He got along with both management and union. He never had a job close to home and traveled thirty to forty miles each way every day. He was the most generous person with his time than any person you could ever meet. After is retirement, Paul assumed the responsibility of caring for his aging mother-in-law--setting up her special living quarters and monitoring her medications and doctors' appointments. He recorded everything--even the number of times he would go up and down the steps. He gave her this care for many years until she was admitted to Concordia Home. He gave the same meticulous care to his wife, Emmy Lou, when she became ill. After his wife's death the family suspected the onset of Alzheimer's Disease because he would become disoriented and would loose his way. Finally his son had to take the car away. At this time Paul realized he wanted to get all his affairs in order, and true to his habit of keeping records, hew wrote reams of paper regarding his will and his requests for his funeral. He insisted on giving copies to everyone. Paul's secret ambition was to become a caregiver for the sick and feeble, and it was at this time that his family thought this would be an opportunity to get him admitted to assisted living at Concordia Home where he cold be taken care of and help the caregivers there.
48 Descendants of Johann STOLTE 13 September 2013 This was an illusion as Paul's illness progressed. His condition deteriorated during his seven and a half years at Concordia and eventually he failed to recognize close relatives. As time passed, he slept 20 out of 24 hours, and was completely dependent on others. On one of the family's last visits when it was not known if he could hear or see, he was asked if he would like to hear the Lord's Prayer. His eyes opened while the prayer was recited. He heard--he knew. Paul and Emmy Lou (Fogarty) were married at Concordia Lutheran Church in Brentwood on June 17, 1949. Paul became a member of Concordia Brentwood by adult confirmation several years before this--this is where they met. Paul was a member of Divine Charity Lutheran Church, a Wisconsin Synod mission, before joining Good Shepherd when that small mission congregation disbanded and his wife had died. He was quite active with his wife in this mission. Paul's joy in life was service to others! We will forward any further thoughts to you after my sister and her family arrives from Virginia if they have more to add. Jack and Audrey

The program was soon disbanded and he was assigned to the 95th Infantry Division at Indiantown Gap, Pennsylvania.

The Division was active in campaigns in Northern France, the Rhineland and Central Europe, becoming known as the "Iron Men of Metz." He was in the Quartermasters Corp, serving as a cook. He returned to the United States in July 1945 and was honorably discharged from the Army on December 7, 1945 at Camp Shelby, Mississippi. 49 Descendants of Johann STOLTE 13 September 2013

The Pittsburgh Press, Friday, September 6, 1963
Four Plane Deaths in W. VA. Probed Wilkins Twp. Family Killed in Rainstorm Tri-State Service Keyser, W. VA., Sept 6
Investigators today tried to piece together an explanation for a light plane crash that killed a surburban Pittsburgh engineer, his wife, and two of their three children. A driving rainstorm was believed responsible for the flying tragedy near here in a heavily wooded section of eastern West Virginia.
The victims were William Brobst, 31, of 129 Gilmore Dr. in the Eastmont area of Wilkins Twp.; his wife, Margaret, 30; Jody Arthur, 3, and Kimberly Anne, 2. A third child, Gwynne Ellen, 3 months, had stayed behind with her paternal grandparents, Mr. and Mrs. Harry Brobst, of 2218 LaCrosse St., Swissvale.
The family was en route to Florida on a combination business and pleasure trip. Mr. Brobst, a pilot for about five years, was an electrical engineer for Siltronics, Inc. The family took off from Monroeville Airport about 9 a.m. yesterday in a single engine Cessna owned by the WTAE Flying Club. The plane crashed in a heavy rain and fog about noon but the wreckage was not spotted until almost five hours later by D. F. Baker, operator of a private airport at Burlington, W. VA. It took still another hour for rescue crews to reach the crash scene about 30 miles south of Cumberlan MD., and still more time to establish identification of the four victims in the demolished aircraft.
Mr. Baker theorized that the plane had dived straight to the earth. A team of investigators from the Martinsburg office of the Federal Aviation Agency was sent to the scene to determine what caused the accident. The search for the Brobst's plane was begun by West Virginia State Police and private state pilots after the residents of Burlington reported hearing the crash. About 75 persons joined in the air and ground hunt for the craft. Although the Cessna was equipped with a radio there was no record that Mr. Brobst signaled he was in difficulty. Mr. Baker said it was possible that the pilot tried to pull up quickly in the face of a hillside, that the plane then stalled and plunged to the ground.
The family's destination had been Melbourne, Fla. Before leaving Pittsburgh the victims visited Mrs. Brobst parents, Mr. and Mrs. Marshall Dixon, of 726 Penny Dr., Penn Hills. "We didn't want them to go...we just didn't want them to go" Mrs. Dixon said after hearing of the crash. Mr. Brobst was described as a "wonderful pilot" by David Dixon, his brother-in-law. He often took his family on flying jaunts. He and his family moved into their home in Wilkins Twp. a year ago when they returned to the area from New Jersey, where Mr. Brobst was previously employed. Jody Arthur's fourth birthday would have been Sept. 20. Mr. Brobst was a graduate of Swissvale High School and Carnegie Institute of Technology and his wife was graduated from Westinghouse High School and Shadyside Hospital School of Nursing. In addition to his parents, he is survived by two brothers, Lawrence David of Canonsburg, and Roger Allen at home. His wife is also survived by a sister Mrs. Pauline Cunningham of Hartford, Conn.

Conrad Michael Jaworski--Longtime civil engineer at Republic Steel
By Jim McKay, Post-Gazette Staff Writer
Conrad Michael Jaworski, a civil engineer who became assistant to the president of Republic Steel before his retirement, died this week of complications from cancer.
Mr. Jaworski, 74, of Bethel Park, died Tuesday, 15 days after the death of his wife, Mary Jean Jaworski, who also had cancer, family members said. They had been married for 47 years.
62 Descendants of Johann STOLTE 13 September 2013 His grandparents emigrated from Poland and the family lived on Polish Hill when Mr. Jaworski was young. His father, also named Conrad, operated Jaworski's Meat Market, a neighborhood grocery store.
Mr. Jaworski worked in his father's Polish Hill store while a student at both Central Catholic High School and the University of Pittsburgh School of Engineering, where he earned a bachelor's degree in civil engineering.
After a brief time as a state highway engineer, Mr. Jaworski joined the U.S. Army during the Korean War. He served in the Army as an engineer at the Aberdeen Proving Grounds in Maryland.
In 1953, after his discharge from the service, Mr. Jaworski began his 34-year career at Republic Steel, where he held a variety of positions including sales engineer, district sales manager and assistant to the president.
He met his wife, a graduate of the Allegheny General Hospital school of nursing, in 1955 at a dance. A stay-at-home mom for many years, Mrs. Jaworski was a school nurse in the Bethel Park and Mt. Lebanon school districts during the 1980s.
Mr. Jaworski retired after Republic merged in 1984 with LTV Corp.'s Jones & Laughlin Steel, to become LTV Steel Corp. LTV liquidated under bankruptcy court protection this year.
After retirement, Mr. Jaworski did not let his engineering skills erode. A daughter, Carol Jaworski, of Hopkins, S.C., said her father built decks on the homes of his three daughters and helped them with renovations. "They were exquisite, the most structurally sound decks that could be built," she said. "He was a tremendous worker, very meticulous, very much a perfectionist. He could fix anything."
His daughter described him as a gregarious man with many friends. She said he enjoyed Pittsburgh's professional sports teams and followed with interest his grandchildren's sports activities.
"He was a true Pittsburgher," she said. "He knew back roads and short cuts that the postman probably didn't even know."
Mr. Jaworski picked up computer skills in retirement and during a family trip to Poland in 1995 found he could still converse in Polish, which was spoken at home during his youth and for part of the day when he attended the Immaculate Heart of Mary elementary school.
He was a lifetime member of St. Valentine Church, where he served as an usher and was a founding member of the Men's Club.
Besides his daughter Carol Jaworski, Mr. Jaworski is survived by daughters Janice Maszle and Marilyn Miller, both also of McMurray, and four grandchildren.
The John F. Slater Funeral Home, 4201 Brownsville Road, Brentwood, handled arrangements. A funeral prayer will be held at 9:15 a.m. today followed by a Mass in St. Gabriel of the Sorrowful Virgin Church at 10 a.m.

I started getting into music in middle school, when I wanted to buy vinyl records, so I got a whole bunch of Clash and Black Flag albums, which might be worth money if they weren’t in such crappy condition.
In high school, instead of having friends I listened to music and watched sketch comedy. I went to Point Park University in downtown Pittsburgh (most people haven’t heard of it either). I started off as an Entertainment Management Major, but got way too involved with the radio station, so I graduated with a Radio Broadcast major. I worked at the school’s radio station, WPPJ, all my years at college, two years as music director. I live where Williamsburg kisses Bushwick with my wife, where we are lucky enough to have a washer/dryer in our apartment.
Hobbies include: skee ball techniques and discussion, creating slang terms (a “golden oreo” means a hamper), stealing jokes from Zach Galifianakis, and saving money to go to the World Series when the Pittsburgh Pirates make it next year. Favorite artists: Barr, The Halo Benders, Bobby Birdman, Wolf TColonel, The Talking Heads, Quasi and my ideal lead singer for Van Halen would be Norah Jones.
