Notes:

Christine Friederike [Prass] Stomberger was born in the village of Grossgarnstadt, Germany. She married Pankratz Bancroft Stomberger (then spelled Stammberger) on May 10, 1846. Her Brother, John Andrew Prass married Margaretha Stammberger, her husband's sister. Their first two children were born in Germany before their immigration to America in the summer of 1854, a voyage that took six weeks. Upon arrival in New York City, they boarded a train for Dayton, Ohio, where other family members awaited. Within a short time, they had relocated to Brookville. Pankratz and Christine were German Lutherans, but were known to have become members of the German Baptist Church on Wolf Creek Pike.

She was the Mother of six children.....Anna Margaretha Stomberger (1847-1872), Anna Barbara [Stomberger] Hemberger (1851-1936), Paul Stomberger (1854-1944), Theodore Stomberger (1858-1859), Anna Augusta [Stomberger] Lehman (1861-1929), and John Levit Stomberger (1863-1948).

After the death of her husband in 1880, Christine lived in a log cabin on a small tract of land on the North edge of Brookville. She sold milk and eggs and was self-supporting. In later years, her youngest daughter also came to live with her after the death of her own husband in 1896. Christine died in the cabin in 1904, and soon after the Log Cabin was torn down and used for firewood.
