The 895 families included in St. Peter’s census numbered about 4050 parishioners, and named many other deceased or non-Catholic spouses. One of the most startling pieces of genealogical information in this parish census was the inclusion of the parental surname for the majority of the 45 adopted or “quasi-adopted” children. The rarity of this information goes without saying. In a few cases the given name of the birth parent was also provided. Dates and places mentioned in this record should be further verified in baptismal, marriage, and death registers of St. Peter’s Catholic Church, or other churches and civil offices as indicated in this census. Resources for further research follow this introduction. St. Peter’s was the first parish established within the confines of Belleville in 1842.1 The Roman Catholic Diocese of Belleville was created in January 1887 from the Alton Diocese, at which time Belleville was designated as the See of the Bishop. St. Peter’s Roman Catholic Church became the Cathedral on 25 April 1888.2 In the broadest sense, a church census determined the obligation or annual tribute due a bishop.3 The parish census was to be compiled every three years,4 and this first ledger seems to include two, if not three, censuses taken circa 1888–1895. This ledger contains no 1896 dates.5 The editor does not know if other parishes throughout the diocese were obligated to conduct a census, or if any other such censuses might still be extant today. LATIN Most of the text was written in Latin,6 but many given names were in English. All information was transcribed exactly as it appeared. Abbreviated words and rough translations of Latin phrases follow this introduction. 1 As early as 1836, Masses were held on the Stauder farm in Shiloh. See David Darin, “History and Tour Guide of the Cathedral of St. Peter,” (Belleville, Ill.: the parish, 1989), 2. 2 Diocese of Belleville, Betty Burnett, editor, A Time of Favor: The Story of the Catholic Family of Southern Illinois, (St. Louis: Patrice Press, 1987), 33. 3 New Advent, The Catholic Encyclopedia, “Census” <http://www.newadvent.org/cathen/03533a.htm>. 4 Front matter and instructions of the original census book, 10 x 15.5 inches, 196 inscribed pages. 5 One February birth in 1897 was recorded—the very last ledger entry. A subsequent volume beginning 1897 may be transcribed in the future. 6 Cassell’s New Latin-English English-Latin Dictionary by D.P. Simpson, was the principal source used to translate some Remarks for this publication, with special assistance from Rev. Msgr. Jerome D. Hartlein, Mascoutah.

Some original column titles were changed at the time the census was taken, apparently by the first person taking down the information, e.g., Both Names of the Fathers of the Parents—Grandparents was altered to Names of Children. Likewise, the column for Occupations was replaced with Birth Date. The column for Last Place of Residence was replaced with Date and Place of Marriage. The Age, and Householder or Renter columns were blank. PAGE AND FAMILY NUMBERS Three to four sets of numbers are associated with each family group. The first two numbers are the most reliable, representing the original, stamped, page number found in the upper right-hand corner, and the earliest, sequential number assigned to a family unit. A “revised” census was probably taken about 1890–1892, based on a study of the handwriting and entries, and is represented by the third number in the sequence. However, only 235 families are counted and the numbering ceased on page 94, so it is incomplete at best. A checkmark rather than a number seems to continue for families still in the parish, but appears only pages 100–109, then ceases. A third census, presumably taken three years later (1893–1895), begins with the Aloysius Schaefer family on page 61. However, this numbering sequence was also discontinued. Of course some families moved, or belonged to a different parish during the course of these censuses.7 Without a key to the numbering, it is difficult at best to form any definite conclusions except for the page and first family number, but all are included in this publication for further study and analysis by the reader. In sum, the numbers 65/347/197/18 represent 65: original page of the entry 347: family number assigned at the first census 197: family number assigned at the second census 18: family number assigned at the third census NAMES Each parishioner’s Christian and surname were transcribed exactly: husband, and wife with maiden name; their children; followed by the Christian and surname of relatives, servants and other Catholics in the household. Relationships to the head of household were transcribed, if provided. Vide or vid was added by the priest if the individual was widowed. The name of a non-Catholic spouse was written in the Remarks column by the priest. Surnames might be spelled phonetically. Most Christian names were given in Latin. Belleville was heavily German in the late 19th century, and this influence is reflected in the names. Joannes, the Latin word for John, is Johannes in German 7 St. Luke parish (St. Lucae) was separated from St. Peter’s in 1883; St. Mary parish formed in 1893 and encompassed the western part of Belleville, then called West Belleville. ©2007 St. Clair County [Illinois] Genealogical Society ii St. Peter’s Roman Catholic Church Census 1888–1895 (commonly shortened to Johann). Latin word endings are very important. For example, Joannis is not a misspelling for Joannes, rather, Joannis means of John. Most English equivalents of Latin given names are easily recognizable. Generally the male gender ending –us, -ius is dropped. The female gender ending is designated by adding –a. Some names are seldom, if ever, used today, e.g. Anathalia, Crescentia, Cunigunda and Walburga. Examples of some of the more unusual Latin, German and English given names are LATIN GERMAN ENGLISH Antonius Anton Anthony Carolus Karl Carl, Charles Georgius Georg George Guilelmus Wilhelm William Henricus Heinrich Henry Jacobus Jacob James, Jacob Ludovicus Ludwig Louis Mathias Matthias Matthew In many cases, research in contemporary documents (census, obituaries, civil marriages) will help determine the name by which an individual was commonly called. NAMES OF CHILDREN Names of children from prior and current marriages, adopted, and quasi adopted children were inscribed in this column. Remarkably, the adopted child’s birth family was often identified in Remarks. RESIDENCE The residence generally appeared only once per family. The Ward number was not transcribed. Some adult relatives and school-age children actually lived in other households, as indicated by the Latin word apud. Street names changed in 1918 from those shown here. See St. Clair County Genealogical Society Quarterly 25: 3, 2002 for these changes.8 DATE, PLACE OF MARRIAGE Self explanatory DATE, COUNTRY OF BIRTH Locations are transcribed verbatim; some German town names are given but these may be spelled phonetically, misspelled or extinct. A gazetteer and map of the area may help determine the town name for that period. The majority of town names are—or were— in St. Clair County or Illinois. MARRIED OR SINGLE The “m” (married) abbreviation was not recorded on the original for most married couples, probably because husband and wife were written sequentially in the 8 A plat map of Belleville shows street names, see Marissa Historical and Genealogical Society, 1874 and 1901 Combined Atlases for St.

  • Metropolitan Regions As a New Spatial Planning Concept
    STUDIES IN SPATIAL DEVELOPMENT Die Umsetzung des Konzeptes der Metropolregionen in der planerischen Praxis war Hauptthema 8 eines kürzlich an der Universität Tübingen abgeschlossenen Forschungsvorhabens. Zu den zentralen Fragen zählten Chancen, Hemmnisse und Herausforderungen bei der praktischen Umsetzung einer Politik, die auf Verbesserung der Wettbewerbsfähigkeit von Metropolregionen zielt. Bei der hier vor- gestellten umfangreichen empirischen Studie liegt der Schwerpunkt auf dem Umsetzungsprozess in Baden-Württemberg. Dieses Bundesland bietet eine vielfältige Umsetzungslandschaft, die durch eine Vielzahl unterschiedlicher Ansätze geprägt ist. Dazu zählen sowohl die älteste als auch die jüngste Generation anerkannter Metropolregionen, sowie grenzüberschreitende Einfl ussbereiche. Die Auswertung einer bei den Gemeindeverwaltungen durchgeführten Befragung – in Verbindung mit ausführlichen Interviews mit sonstigen Akteuren und Planungsbehörden – ermöglicht Einblick in einen dynamischen Prozess und weist auf signifi kante Unterschiede sowohl bei der Planung als auch bei der Umsetzung hin. Erkennbar wird eine beträchtliche Lücke zwischen Theorie und Praxis, vor allem im Bereich der fl exiblen Geometrien und bei den Strukturen der metropolitan governance. Die zunehmende Diskrepanz zwischen Funktions- und Verwaltungsräumen führt zu Tendenzen der Metropolitan Regions and Spatial Development Überdimensionierung und zu Marginalisierungsängsten.

    HISTORY OF ST. CHARLES CHURCH 1877-1977 DU BOIS, ILLINOIS (Centenial 1877-1977 St. Charles Borromeo Church, DuBois, IL) "Cathedral of the Prairie" Erected In 1908 The history of Saint Charles Parish spans more than a century of faith, devotion and love of God by the Priests, the Sisters, and the parishioners including the first Catholic immigrants who settled in this rural community that was called "Coloma" in the early days. The first inscription in the parish records was made as early as 1868 by Father Charles Klocke who attended the infant community from Du Quoin, Illinois; however, the Holy Sacrifice of the Mass was offered for the first time in the original St. Charles Church on the third Sunday of Advent, December 16, 1877. The zeal of the early settlers for a church of their own was exhibited by the contribution of many hours of labor in building the wooden structure that was 75 feet long and 36 feet wide. In this unfinished structure, the early parishioners knelt on the floor and sat on planks, supported by wooden kegs, during that First Holy Mass one hundred years ago. The beginnings of this parish were humble and modest and marked with a great deal of painstaking effort and hard labor. Transportation in those days consisted of horse and buggy, lumber-wagon, horseback, or the railroad. Travel problems in no way obstructed the continuous growth of St. Charles parish. By 1898, the church could not accommodate all of the parishioners, and a new parish was organized that year in Scheller. A few years later Posen and then Tamaroa organized new parishes.
