Hirschboeck Family Genealogy

The Hirschböck/Hirschboeck (also spelled Hirschbeck in the U.S.) family, pronounced Here-sh-beck, originates in Bayern, the former province of Bavaria, in southeast Germany. The family originated in Burgheim, a small market village in the administrative region Oberbayern (Upper Bavaria, although it is the most southern part of Bayern, so the title is perhaps a misrepresentation). Munich and Ingolstadt are in this administrative region. The sub-region (Kreis) where Burgheim is located is called Neuburg-Schrobenhausen near Swabia and consists of the previously swampy areas between the Danube and Paar Rivers that are called the Donaumoos.

Religiously, the family was Roman Catholic. Damion Hirschböck married Maria Anna Reichlin on February 4, 1801 in Bergheim. The family was so traditional that a dowry transmitted from the bride to the groom. The only recorded child of Damion and Maria Anna is Sebastian Hirschböck, the immigrant ancestor, who was born in 1807 in Bergheim.

In Bavaria, Sebastian and wife Maria Elisabetha Mair/Maier/Myer Hirschboeck had four children, one of which you may be a descendant of. The family emigrated to the U.S. in 1853 and settled in Milwaukee, Wisconsin. Sebastian and Elizabeth moved to Barton (present-day West Bend) in Washington County in 1855. In Barton, the Hirschboeck family helped establish the St. Mary's Immaculate Conception Church. The Church is located in the former Barton, currently West Bend, Wisconsin, on Jefferson Street, between Harrison and Monroe Streets. The Old Cemetery is located on the southeast side of Main Street, halfway between Tree Rd. and Roosevelt Drive. This is the cemetery where early Hirschboeck family members were buried.

Most Hirschboeck family members in the U.S. are descendants of one of the three sons of Sebastian and Elizabeth Myer/Maier/Mair Hirschboeck. Photos of the family are available OnLine, including some unidentified photos of the Daniel and Barbara (Braun) Hirschboeck family. Additionally, I provide some Hirschboeck census data OnLine.

Politics was integral to the Hirschboeck ancestors. Barton was overwhelmingly Democratic until at least 1900. In 1864, the total number of registered voters in Barton was just 42. Sebastian Hirschboeck frequented Democratic Party Conventions in Wisconsin. His son Damian served as both a delegate to Democratic Conventions and as an officer in the town of Barton. In 1860, Barton and Washington County favored Stephen Douglas, yet the most of the Midwest (including Wisconsin) favored Republican Abraham Lincoln.

The most information is known about the middle son, Daniel (Damian). He was involved in politics in Washington County. He probably has the most descendants, as well. Little is known of the youngest brother, Johan (John) Nepomuc. His great-great-grandson, Christopher J. Jaekels, believes that his ancestor was named Johan after John the Baptist and named Nepomuc after Saint John de Nepomuc. (St. John de Nepomuc was the Vicar General of Prague and Patron Saint of Bohemia that was executed by drowning in the Moldau River by King Wenceslas for refusing to reveal what the Queen had told him in confession.) The least information, though, is known about the oldest son, George Vincenz, or his descendants. The oldest and youngest brothers moved to Milwaukee; Daniel Hirschboeck stayed in Barton. The family trade was machinery or shoemaking. Almost all of the male family members in the first and second U.S. generations were involved with one of these trades. According to A History of the Village of Barton, "Another extremely important trade [in the town] was the manufacture and repair of footwear. George and Damian Hirschboeck had a shop for the manufacture, sale, and repair of boots and shoes, probably started by their father Sebastian, and this shop continued under other owners into the 1930s, when John Heindl was the last owner." (I believe the author means that Damian and his son, George, m: Katherine Hartmann, had this shop. George V. Hirschboeck, the brother of Damian, was in Milwaukee.)

It is believed that all or most family members with the surname Hirschboeck are related. Even the Major League Baseball (MLB) umpires, who spell their surname Hirschbeck, fit into the family (descendants of Damian's son Joseph). John Hirschbeck, the elder of the umpire brothers, was featured in an interesting family story related to his children.

The Hirschboeck family settled in Barton, Wisconsin. The 1870 population of Barton was just 1440. In 1880, the village of Barton had a population of 348, with the town population at 1275 (total 1689). The 1890 Census was lost and has never been located.

The 1890 Milwaukee City Directory lists the following family members: Frank -- residing at 709 National Ave., occupation: machinist; Peter -- residing at 709 National Ave., occupation: machinist; George -- residing at 545 7th St., occupation: tinner; John D. -- residing at 691 4th St., occupation: polisher; Ottilie (wid. George) -- residing at 747 7th St.; and Philipine -- residing at 670 Jackson Ave., occupation: clerk. The 1930 City Directory includes: The George (son of George) Hirschboeck Family: Geo. (Josephine) -- residing at h701, occupation: solderer (assemblyman); Geo. H. (Katherine) -- residing at h852 26th Street, occupation: manager; and Joseph (Antonia) -- residing at 3229 Center St., occupation: soft drinks; The John (son of Damian) Hirschboeck Family: John D. (Anna) -- residing at 1809 Meinecke St., occupation: laborer; and Marie C. -- residing at 1809 Meinecke St., occupation: clerk; The Peter Hirschboeck Family: Peter (Mary) -- residing at 745 46th Street, occupation: toolmaker; Alfred J. -- residing at 745 46th Street; Robert D. -- residing at 745 46th Street, occupation: clerk; and Stephen (Katherine) -- Luick Ice Cream; The Frank Hirschboeck Family: Frances (wid. Frank) -- residing at h495 39th Ave.; The Stephen Hirschboeck Family: Herbert -- occupation: lawyer; The George (son of Damian) Hirschboeck Family: John S. -- residing at Kensington Blvd., occupation: student; and The John (son of Sebastian b: 1807) Hirschboeck Family: Josephine -- residing at 779 2nd Street. Finally, there is a Ray Hirschboeck -- residing at 495 39th Ave., occupation: foreman -- who I cannot place into the family tree.

The origins of the surname involves the combination of two parts: First, the Middle High German hir(t)z means 'deer' or 'stag', which was a metonymic occupational name for a keeper of deer, a nickname for someone thought to resemble a deer or stag, or a habitational name for someone who lived at a house distinguished by the sign of a stag; and, second, the South German böck translates to "buck." Therefore Hirschböck was an ancient Bavarian name that meant "deerbuck" or "stag deer." The surname Maier comes from Middle High German meier, a status name for a steward, bailiff, or overseer. Originally it denoted a village headman (ultimately from Latin maior, meaning 'greater' or 'superior'). The surname Reichel is derived from a pet form of any of several Germanic personal names formed with the Germanic element ric or 'power'. Finally, the surname Lemberger was a habitational name for someone from any of the various places called Lemberg.

(Special note of thanks to the late Fr. George J. Hirschboeck, cousin Rob Hirschboeck, cousin Kathy Cervenka, Janice Lamers, and John Von Haden for their assistance in compiling the below information.)

Notes on Sebastian and Elisabeth Hirschboeck:
.............Sebastian Hirschboeck is the immigrant ancestor, along with his wife Elisabeth Maier. His occupation for many years was a shoemaker; he established his own business in Washington County upon arrival in the U.S. in 1853. He is perhaps most noted for the clock that he built in 1857 at the age of 50 years old, which stands today at the Immaculate Heart of Mary Church in West Bend (formerly Barton), Wisconsin.
.............According to A History of the Village of Barton by Dr. Richard H. Driessel, "Sebastian Hirschboeck was one of the earliest German craftsmen to come to the village. He and his sons were notable in commercial development and in Church affairs for several generations. He came to Milwaukee from Bavaria in 1853 and to Barton in 1855. He continued to be active in trade while holding several church offices and was a frequent delegate to Democratic political conventions."
.............Sebastian Hirschboeck's original shoe/boot shop was located at 316 Commerce Street, Barton, Wisconsin. Later the building became the post office in Barton. The building still stands today. The Hirschboeck residence was at 320 Commerce Street. It was built in 1892. Sebastian was buried Oct. 1 at St. Mary's Catholic Cemetery in Barton, Wisconsin.

Notes on George and Ottilia Hirschboeck:
.............Very little is known about George or Ottilia. George left Washington County and settled in Milwaukee, perhaps with his younger brother John. George was a shoemaker, like his father. The 1870 Milwaukee City Directory lists Geo. Hirschboeck as residing at 545 7th Street with his occupation as a shoemaker. The 1880 Census lists him as a watchmaker. The listing for the family includes: George, 48, listed as ill; Ottilie, 46, keeping house; Barbara, 21, works in tailor shop; Damian, 18, works in foundry; Mary, 17, works in tailor shop; Elisabeth, 9, in school; George, 8, in school; and John, 6. The 1910 Census for Milwaukee, ward 3, lists Ottilia Hirschboeck, age 75, and her daughter, Barbara, 50. Ottilia's primary language is listed as German. The last address of the family was 545 7th Street, Milwaukee. He is buried at Calvary Cemetery, block 5, row 218 with his wife and his children John, Dominic, Barbara, and Elizabeth. Ottilia died of heart disease.

Notes on George and Josephine Hirschboeck:
.............George Hirschbeck was baptised August 11, 1872 in Milwaukee, Wisconsin. His occupation was a machinist and an engineer; he is said to have made wrought iron gates and persisted in other iron work at a large mansion next to the Public Library in downtown Milwaukee. (The 1910 Census lists his occupation was "iron works." The 1930 Census lists his occupation as a solderer.) He last resided at 2035 North 30th Street, Milwaukee. He was buried Sept. 12, 1940 at Holy Cross Cemetery, block 18, section A, lot 42-s, grave 4.

Notes on Daniel and Barbara Hirschboeck:
.............While listed as "Damian" in most public records, Mr. Hirschboeck was called "Daniel" by close friends. He resided in Barton, Wisconsin for most of his life. In 1870, the value of his real estate was $1,000 and the value of his personal assets was $500, according to the collected census data. His occupation was a boot and shoe maker.
.............Mr. Hirschboeck was a notable, respected member of the community. The Catholic faith and the Church were integral to each of the Hirschboeck pioneers. Damian Hirschboeck was one of the three original trustees of the St. Mary's Church, which was established in September, 1857. Active in the community, Damian Hirschboeck was a member of the Barton School Board. The Board came into existence in 1854, and, sometime from 1856 to 1867, Hirschboeck served as an elected member. Fraternal, benevolent, and social societies associated with the Catholic Church were important in the community, too. The St. Joseph Society for men was one of the most active, starting in the early years. In December, 1885, the society elected Damian Hirschboeck to the position of Treasurer. Hirschboeck was also an accomplished fisherman. In one season, it's reported that he caught 100 pickerel (1875). In 1879, he served on the County Fair Committee.
.............According to 1881 History of Washington and Ozaukee Counties, "Damian Hirschboeck, manufacturer of and dealer in boots and shoes, Barton; business established April, 1855. The subject of this sketch is a native of Bavaria, Germany, and is the son of Sebastian and Elizabeth (Myer) Hirschboeck; was born Sept 27, 1831; learned his trade in his native country, and came to America in 1853, making his home in Milwaukee; he worked at his trade with Bradley & Metcalf 'til April 1, 1855; he then moved to the village of Barton and started in his present business. Mr. Hirschboeck was married at Milwaukee July 4, 1853, to Miss Barbara Braun, daughter of Bartholomew and Francisca (Ohlinger) Braun; Mrs. H. was born in Bavaria, Germany; they have had thirteen children, of whom eleven are living; the two first were twins and died in infancy; those living are Joseph, who is agent of the American Express Co. at Barton; was appointed Sept. 12, 1877; Barbara, George, Sebastian, John, Elizabeth, Peter and Paul (twins), Frank A., Stephen, and Zaezelia F. Mr. Hirschboeck has served his school district in the capacity of Treasurer six years."
.............This sketch only scratches the surface of the accomplishments and community involvement of Damian and his descendants. Damian Hirschboeck is buried with his wife Barbara, his son and daughter-in-law George and Catherine, his daughter and son-in-law Barbara and Gerhard J. Woltering/Woltring, and his grandson and grandaughter John G. and Helen Hirschboeck. They are buried at St. Mary's Catholic Cemetery in Barton, Wisconsin at row 6-7.

Notes on Joseph and Ellen Hirschboeck:
.............Ellen was also called Eleanora. Her surname is listed as Dowling or Dolan, as well. Joseph Hirschboeck, son of Damian, clearly exhibited the leadership characteristics of his father. He was also a boot and shoe maker and merchant. In 1876 he considered buying the local tannery and starting a leather store, but entered other enterprises. In 1885, Joseph Hirschboeck bought the general store where Otten's store is presently located from Peter Fraser. The store sold dry goods, groceries, boots, shoes, flour, feed, and lumber. Hirschboeck sold that store shortly after his purchase of it, though. Joseph was also the railroad station agent in Barton the early 1880s (among the first in the town's short history), but was replaced by J.R. Nigh in 1885 when Hirschboeck bought Peter Fraser's general store. Additionally, Joseph Hirschboeck served as Town Constable. It is unclear whether or not Joseph moved to New York, or whether Helen moved to New York with her children after Joseph's death. The baseball umpires in the Hirschboeck family stem from this branch (John F. --> John J. --> John/Mark).

Notes on George and Katherine Hirschboeck:
.............George Hirschboeck, son of Damian, was prominent in the Barton community. His occupation was a shoemaker. He had his home and shop on present-day Commerce Street. He not only served as Deputy Sheriff (1879), handling approximately three cases a week, but he also was a foreman for the Barton Volunteer Fire Department. The Department was established in 1900 and George was involved from 1905-1911. He was postmaster of the Barton Post Office in 1885 and 1893. In July, 1919, when the Barton State Bank was formed, G. Hirschboeck was on the Board of Directors of the first bank in Barton. This information comes from A History of the Village of Barton by Dr. Richard H. Driessel. George died of tetanus (lockjaw) after injuring himself with an awl (or punch) used when working with leather, according to his great-grandson Rob Hirschboeck.

Notes on John and Catherine Hirschboeck:
.............The least information among the Hirschboeck brothers is known about John. John Hirschboeck was a member of the Choir at St. Mary's Church in Barton. The Choir was established just two years after the Church's founding in 1857. His birth name was Johan in Germany, and he was apparently nicknamed Nepomuc. The 1870 Milwaukee City Directory lists John Hirschboeck as residing at 624 Galena Street with his occupation being a shoemaker. In the 1880 U.S. Census, John shows up with his family in Kewaskum, Washington County, Wisconsin. The 1900 Census (Milwaukee, ward 18) lists the family as follows: John, born April 1840; Catharine, Oct. 1844; Josephine, Oct. 1873; Johanna, Dec. 1874, occupation: saleswoman; Catharine, Oct. 1878; Frank, Aug. 1887, at school.
