Biography

Maud Ellen Wintermute was born on 18 April 1872 in East Mauch Chunk, Carbon, Pennsylvania.1 She was born on 18 April 1872 in East Mauch Chunk, Carbon Co., Pennsylvania. She and James A. Munro were married on 31 July 1929. She died in 1951, at age ~79.1 She was buried in Evergreen Cemetery, Jim Thorpe, Carbon, Pennsylvania.2,1 She was buried in Evergreen Cemetery, Jim Thorpe, Carbon Co., Pennsylvania, USA.2,3
Daughter Maude Ellen Wintermute (1872-1951) was born on April 18, 1872 in East Mauch Chunk.

As her parents' health seriously declined in 1919, Maude quit her job and moved back in with her parents to provide care. They were heavily dependent on the father's $32 per month pension payment from the federal government. On Oct. 1, 1919, the mother suffered a stroke, and became "entirely helpless in bed," Maude reported. Her father also was stricken with a stroke, and died in June 1920. The mother outlived her husband by five years, in Maude's constant care. Maude penned frequent letters and petitions to the Commissioner of Pensions, asking that her mother's monthly payment be increased. The mother died in 1925.

Freed from the burden of care-giving, Maude wed James A. Munro (1877-1959), a native of Canada who had emigrated to the United States in 1896. The wedding took place sometime after 1925. He was five years younger than she, and they apparently had no children. (In 1910, James lived unmarried in a boarding house in Manhattan, on West 61st Street. His occupation, as recorded by the federal census-taker, was as a machinist in a garage.)

Circa 1930, when the federal census again was enumerated, Maude and James lived in the Borough of Manhattan, on West 64th Street, and kept a rooming house. Their boarders included a wide range of lunch room employees, hotel workers, construction and plumbing personnel, salesmen and factory designers.

James was a longtime machinist with an auto shop and later the New York City Fire Department.

In retirement, threy resided in Kingston and Wilkes-Barre, Luzerne County. She was named in the 1948 Mauch Chunk Times-News obituary of her brother Russell.

Jim Thorpe Times-News

Maude died in 1951, at the age of 79. She is buried in Evergreen Cemetery in Mauch Chunk (Jim Thorpe), Plot 73-F, the same plot as her parents.

James survived her by eight years. He passed away in Wilkes-Barre's Mercy Hospital on Nov. 1, 1959. His remains were returned to Mauch Chunk to rest beside his wife, following a funeral led by Rev. Astley Cooper. An obituary in the Jim Thorpe Times-News noted that "A niece, Mrs. Wesley Kreamer, this community, is among his survivors."

Maude is mentioned in J.P. Wintermute's 1900 book, The Wintermute Family History.

He is a member of the Masonic fraternity and affiliated with Lodge No. 61 at Wilkes-barre, Pa." At the time, their address was Coatesville, Chester County, PA.

The 1910 census of Coatesville shows the Wintermutes residing on Railroad Street, with Joseph's occupation given as "clerk - jewelry store."

Son Horace Miner Wintermute (1866-1918) was born Aug. 11, 1866 at Catasauqua, Lehigh County, PA. On Sept. 15, 1891, at the age of 25, Horace wed Laura Barber (1866- ? ), the daughter of George F. Barber. The wedding was held in Scranton, Lackawanna County, PA. They had one known daughter, Ruth B. Wintermute.

Circa 1900, the Wintermutes made their home in Scranton, Lackawanna County, PA, and also at 337 Ninth Street in Brooklyn, NY. A paragraph in J.P. Wintermute's 1900 book, The Wintermute Family History, said that "By trade he is a printer and a member of the Typographical Union." The federal census of Scranton of 1900 confirms Horace's occupation as a printer.

During the 1900s, Horace made a major move to Colorado, settling in Berkeley, Jefferson County. The 1910 census counts Horace and his second wife, also named Laura (1883- ? ), as living on Sheridan Boulevard in Berkeley, and having been married for five years. Laura was a Nebraska native, and there was a 16-year difference in their ages. That year, in 1910, Horace worked as a compositor in a print shop.

Sadly, Horace died on June 6, 1918. No cause is yet known.

No record so far has been found of this family in the 1920 census.

Granddaughter Ruth B. Wintermute (1899- ? ) was born on June 12, 1899.

Katherine Salkeld "Kate" Miner was born on Dec. 4, 1842 in Mauch Chunk, Carbon County, PA, the daughter of Elias and Mary (Cook) Miner. She went by the various names and nicknames of Kate, Kate Salkeld, Catharine, Catharine M. and Katherine, causing confusion with federal authorities later in her life. Her husband was a veteran of the Civil War.

As a young lady, and the daughter of a prominent industrialist, Kate received her education at the Park Academy, a girls' school located on Packer Hill in Mauch Chunk.

Kate wed Franklin Charles "Frank" Wintermute (1840-1920), son of Joseph B. and Judith Ann (Shoemaker) Wintermute (also spelled "Wintermuth"). They were wed after Frank returned home from the army during the Civil War. The ceremony took place on April 3 (or 18 or 23 or 26), 1865, when Kate was age 23 and Frank 25. Rev. J.W. Wood conducted the ceremony in the Presbyterian church in Allentown, Lehigh County, PA.

Kate outlived her husband by five years, in the constant care of their daughter Maude. She was awarded Frank's Civil War pension, but at the reduced monthly amount of $30, despite Maude's frequent letters and petitions to the Commissioner of Pensions.

Kate died in 1925 and also rests in the Evergreen Cemetery, Plot 73-F. (link) Her obituary in the Lehighton Press noted that she "was a daughter of Elias Miner, one of the pioneers of Mauch Chunk, who was at one time one of the owners of the Mauch Chunk Iron Works."

Biography

Franklin Charles Wintermute was born on 3 February 1841 in Stroudsburg, Monroe, Pennsylvania. He was born on 3 February 1841 in Stroudsburg, Pennsyvlania. He and Katherine (Kate) Salkeld Miner were married on 23 April 1865. He died on 14 June 1920, at age 79. He was buried in Evergreen Cemetery, Jim Thorpe, Carbon, Pennsylvania.4 He was buried in Evergreen Cemetery, Jim Thorpe, Carbon Co., Pennsylvania, USA.
Franklin Charles Wintermute was a Clerk in coal Department in Lehigh Valley Rail Road.3 He was in Lehigh Valley Rail Road; Occupation: Clerk in coal Department.
A native of Stroudsburg, Monroe County, PA, Frank moved to Weissport, Carbon County, when a boy of five. He was a farmer at the start of the war.

During the Civil War, Frank enlisted in Lehighton on August 1862 in the 132nd Pennsylvania Volunteer Infantry, Company F. Others in the family serving in the same regiment were Alexander Mills and William H. Miner. Frank stood 5 feet, 9 inches, with a light complexion, blue eyes and dark hair.

He saw action in the battles of Antietam, Gettysburg and Chancellorsville, and was discharged at Harrisburg and thence at Catasauqua, Carbon County in late May 1863.

They had five known children -- Horace Miner Wintermute (born 1866), Joseph Elmer Wintermute (1868), Maude E. Munro (April 1872), Miriam Cook Hess (August 1875) and Russell Kirby Wintermute (May 1881).

The family first lived in Catasauqua, Lehigh County, PA, and thence moved to Weissport, Carbon County. In 1867, Frank accepted a position as clerk in the coal department of the Lehigh Valley Railroad. Said the Mauch Chunk Daily News, "After his return from the war he became a leading clerk at the Packerton Forwarding office and was held in high esteem by the company's officials. The Packerton forwarding office was then in its prime."

Eventually, in 1869, they relocated for good to East Mauch Chunk, where they remained for the rest of their lives. Frank's employment circa 1870-1900 was as a railroad clerk. One of his longtime co-workers was Ben F. Kuehner, of the railroad clerk's office at Packerton. The family were members of the Grace Methodist Church.

The 1880 census shows Frank's widowed mother, age 58, living under their roof on South Street in East Mauch Chunk. This family was listed in the 1895-1897 book Annals of Our Colonial Ancestors and their Descendants, by Ambrose Milton Shotwell.

Frank suffered a debilitating injury on the night of Nov. 28, 1882, at the age of 62, when he was struck by a moving locomotive at Lehighton. In his words:

Was run over by a locomotive, foot crushed, and amputated above the ankle, the train came in on the South bound track, instead of the North as that was the track on which it should have come. I stepped off the depot platform and was in the act of crossing the South bound track, and was caught and injured as above stated. I had a very sore eye which was bandaged, and the strong light from the Engine's head-light was so bright that it hurt my good eye, consequently I did not see that the North bound train was coming on the South bound track.
Wintermute Family History, published 1900

The damaged leg was removed seven inches below the knee. Dr. B.S. Erwin of Mauch Chunk provided medical care during that time. As the scar healed, Frank began using an artificial leg, which another surgeon noted that he "gets around very nicely."

When the Atlas of Carbon County was published in 1875 by F.W. Beers & Co., Frank and Kate's home was identified and marked on the page featuring East Mauch Chunk. Their home was on South Street, in between Second and Front Street, and just a half block from the town's commons. The map shows that not only did they have a home on their narrow tract, but also a rectangular outbuilding in the back. In a list of atlas subscribers published on the same page, Frank is mentioned.

In 1892, Frank received payment of $2,145.56 from the Commonwealth of Pennsylvania. This was compensation for services he provided to schools in Carbon County, but details are not yet known. He also is known to have begun drawing a pension for his service in the war in September 1890. His paperwork is on file today at the National Archives in Washington, D.C. [Invalid Application #919.578, Invalid Certificate #699.675; Widow Application #1.160.715, Widow Certificate #894.351]

He subscribed to the publication The Elevator Constructor, a trade journal of the International Union of Elevator Constructors. The magazine asked readers to respond to the question, "What is the difference between labor union and trusts?" Frank answered in writing, with his comments published in the April 1904 issue: "The trust is organized by the capitalistic class for the purpose of accumulating more of the wealth that the industrious world creates, while the labor unions are organized by the wealth producers of the world, so that they may be able to retain more of the wealth that they create."

Frank enjoyed socializing with former Civil War veterans in Mauch Chunk. He was active with the local L.T. Chapman Post No. 61 of the Grand Army of the Republic, a veterans organization. In June 1899, he took part in the 33rd annual GAR encampment in Pennsylvania, held that year in Wilkes-Barre, PA.

In 1900, the census lists the Wintermutes in East Mauch Chunk. Frank, age 56, was employed as a clerk in a railroad office. Son Russell, age 19, worked as a "drug clerk," while daughters Maude (age 28) and Miriam (24) had no occupation.

The census of 1920 shows the family living on 117 South Street in East Mauch Chunk, with 40-year-old daughter Maude making her home under their roof, and working as a private duty nurse for her parents.

Dimmick Memorial Library

Interested in all aspects of weather, he served as a voluntary but official climate observer United States Weather Bureau, representing Mauch Chunk. Among his duties was to record temperatures, including the mean, departure from normal, highest, lowest and their corresponding dates. He also logged precipitation data such as total rainfall, departure from the normal, the greatest volume in a 24-hour period and total snowfall. As well, he noted the number of clear, partially cloudy and fully cloudy days. His name was published in many editions of reports over the years. He collected meteorological data at a special station in East Mauch Chunk, located "on a knoll about 450 feet from and 100 feet above the Schuylkill River, and surrounded by mountains ranging from 500 to 900 feet above the river," he wrote in a report.

In retirement, Frank served as librarian at the Dimmick Memorial Library in Mauch Chunk, circa 1906, when he would have been 66 years of age. The library was opened 16 years earlier, on Oct. 1, 1890, and was built of Jacobean design just a block from the Carbon County Courthouse At the time Frank worked there, the library had 15,000 volumes. (It later was named to the National Historic Register, and survived a disastrous fire in 1979, in which some 19,200 volumes were destroyed. In an ironic twist, family researchers visited the library and made marvelous discoveries about the Wintermutes and Miners in April 2013.)

Front page, Mauch Chunk Daily News, June 14, 1920

The Wintermutes grieved in June 1918 when they learned of the death of their son Horace, who had been living in Colorado.

Family physician Dr. J.E. Weaver of East Mauch Chunk described Frank's deteriorating health as he aged. Writing in 1920, he said:

Until 15 years ago treated him at rare intervals for abscess of stump of leg where amputated (right, middle third). For past fifteen years vision has been progressively failing, until now is not able to read, with glasses. He was employed at clerical work until 15 years ago, when he was obliged to stop work, on account of eyes, and generally debilitated condition. For past six years the mentality has been failing (senility). Physically, is not able to move about, must be assisted from chair to bed and vice versa.

As Frank and Kate's physical conditions seriously declined in about 1919, daughter Maude quit her job and moved back in with her parents to provide care. They were heavily dependent on Frank's $32 per month pension payment from the federal government. On Oct. 1, 1919, Kate suffered a stroke, and became "entirely helpless in bed," Maude reported.

Also suffering from his own stroke of paralysis, Frank passed away eight and a half months after Kate's stroke, on June 14, 1920 at the age of 79. His death ended a marital union of more than 55 years.

He was laid to rest in the Evergreen Cemetery in Mauch Chunk (Jim Thorpe), with funeral arrangements handled by local undertaker David DeFrehn. A front-page obituary in the Mauch Chunk Daily News said he "was one of the few surviving members of L.F. Chapman Grand Army Post [and] had been an invalid for some time and for the past week or two as very feeble."3
