    Hans owned the Denker Hotel & Saloon in Eldridge, Iowa. Pictures
    and articles of these landmarks are featured in the Eldridge Centennial
    book. The original hotel went down in the tornado and was rebuilt
    in 1908. The whole family worked in the facility. Bill & Ray worked
    as bartenders when they were old enough. Mae (Amanda) was a great
    cook and learned the art when preparing their family style meals.
    The hotel was still operating as a family style resturant in the late 1940s.
    It was still there in 1986 when grandson Fay Schlotfeldt delivered some
    old photos to the Wiese family who had put togeather the Centennial book.
    The depression and relocation of a highway, which the townsfolk didn't
    want close to town, caused sale of the business in about 1929. (After the
    crash). Hans lived with his youngest daughter Selma and husband
    Ernest at 310 E. 15th St, Davenport at the time of his death at age 73 (May '34). He enjoyed pulling Grandson Fay in his wagon or on his sled. Fay
    remembers sitting on the living room floor playing with blocks and seeing
    his granddad fall while shoveling a skiff of snow off the front porch. He
    called his dad who ran out to help him. Hans died of the result of a stroke.

    Hans married Ernestine Anna Sievert on 10 Sep 1885 in Davenport, Scott County, Iowa. Ernestine (daughter of Heinrich F Sievert and Carolina Zarnt) was born on 17 Feb 1866 in Davenport, Scott County, Iowa; died on 16 Apr 1908 in Eldridge, Scott County, Iowa. [Group Sheet] [Family Chart]


  2. 3.  Ernestine Anna Sievert was born on 17 Feb 1866 in Davenport, Scott County, Iowa (daughter of Heinrich F Sievert and Carolina Zarnt); died on 16 Apr 1908 in Eldridge, Scott County, Iowa.

    A land deed in possession of Fay E. Schlotfeldt, Rio Verde Arizona in 1996,
    was given to him by his mother, Ernestine's daughter. It is dated 1899,
    and identifies three of Ernestine's aunts and uncles (siblings of her father
    identified here as Unk Sievert) by it's wording. e.g. "We. etc."
    "...deed this property to our niece, Ernestine Denker. dated 1899, Caldwell
    County, Missouri.

    This deed is signed by Fred E. Seafert, wife Margaret, Nettleton, Mo.
    Ernest Seafert, wife, Cornelia, Nettleton. (Note spelling variation). and
    Wilhelmine Meine of Nettleton, Mo.

    Fay also has a number of pictures of Ernestine with Hans, with the
    children, and one with a person we assume to be her mother, and
    another with a young woman we assume to be a sister.

    News article source for much Sievert data was a Scott County (IA) History,
    published by Inter-State Pub. Co. Chicago 1882 pg 909.(Dprt Publ Libr.)

    Possibly a cousin of Heinrich F. Sievert re this article:

    ADAM Siefert; b. 5-24-1819 - Dukedom of Hertzog, Germany
    d. 1-3-1897 - Davenport, Iowa (City Cemetary)
    "Orphaned in Germany at Age 9. Emigrated to US 1853."
    (Fay's note from a typed note quoting this article says
    Ship: Minerva.)
    "Came to D'port via Pittsburg, and started buying grain
    for others and eventually became a grain dealer in Dport
    Married in 1842 to:
    WILHELMINE (Minnie) Law
    b. 1820 to 8-23-1899. Davenport City Cemetary.

    Article says Minnies parents came to Davenport in 1848.
    Father died in 1873. From an 1882 D'port news article there
    were 9 children of Adam and Minne Law Sievert. Two were living in 1882
    Henry W. and Minnie (Mrs. William Bolte, D'port. (Henry W. owned a
    butcher shop in Davenport, at 4th and Marquette Streets in 1882. Fay
    Schlotfeldt recalls his mother taking him to that store when he was very
    small (and didn't like the smell)...and his mother and aunt commenting
    that it wasn't very close to home, but thought we should go there once
    in a while because it was owned by a relative.
