Occupation: Schoolteacher at Fulda, Noble Co., OH. (source: Snider). The 1900 census entry for Edward's daughter, Margaret Kluber Bishop, states that her father was born in Germany.
In 1870, 31 year old "Eve Clever" lived in Enoch Twp. with her two daughters Margaret (11) and Mary (9). Both girls attended school. Eve's occupation was "keeping house." Eve was born in Virginia, and the girls were born in Ohio. The house immediately preceding Eve Kluber's in the census is vacant. Neighboring occupied households were those of Francis Fisher and Andrew Herbst.
At the time of the 1880 census, 42 year old widow Eva Ebert Kluber lived in the village of Fulda, Enoch Twp., Noble County, Ohio with her two daughters Margaret (21) and Mary (19), and her 72 year old widowed mother Catherine Ebbert. Both Margaret and Mary attended school. Eva worked as a dry goods merchant (storekkeper). Adjacent households in the census were those of widow Augusta (Hohman) Bosold and widow Margaret (Hupp) Fisher. Eva's sister, Regina Ebert Arnold, lived a few doors away.
On 25 Nov 1880, the Caldwell Citizens' Press stated:
G. C. Ehlerman has his store well supplied with goods and is well
patronized as is also the farmers store in Hohman's old stand and
scarce anyone pass Mrs. Eve Kluber's store without buying
something.From The Caldwell Citizens' Press, 14 Sep 1882:
Mrs. Kluber and have gone to Wheeling on a visit.
The paper ommitted the name(s) of the people travelling with Eva Kluber.On 11 Nov 1882, The Caldwell Citizens' Press reported
Mrs. Eva Kluber, after an abscense of eight weeks in Wheeling, returned
home last week.The "Fulda" column of the Caldwell Citizens' Press stated on 30 Nov 1882:
Mrs. Eva Kluber has opened a grocery. Those ho wish to buy a holiday
present would do well to call there.In 1900, 61 year old Eva is listed as the head-of-household on a farm that she owned in Enoch Twp., Noble Co., Ohio. Living with her were her daughter Margaret Kluber Bishop (41), Margaret's husband Peter Bishop (36), and their two children, Martha (4) and Mary (1). Also living in the house was Eva's grandson Edward Johanning (17). The census doesn't state how many children Eva had.
On the US census enumerated on 15 April 1910, seventy-one year old Eva Kluber is listed as the mother-in-law of Peter Bishop. The census states that Eva was born in West Virigina. Eva died a few days later. On her death certificate, her name was spelled Eve (Ebbert) Kluber.
Augusta Kluber was the housekeeper for her brother, Father Damian Kluber, at St. Mary of the Immaculate Conception church in Fulda, Noble Co., OH. She was 50 years old at the time of the 1880 census.
Damian Kluber entered the priesthood. He was the pastor of St. Mary of the Immaculate Comception in Fulda, Noble Co., OH from 1860 until his death in 1883.
In addition to Fulda, Father Kluber also served som missions located around Fulda. This required a great deal of travel on horseback, which was difficult for the priest because he suffered from a hernia. As the missions grew, they were given their own parish priests, relieving Father Kluber of his agonizing travels.
In June 1880, 43 year old D. G. Kluber lived in the rectory in the Village of Fulda in Enoch Twp. with his sister Augusta (50) and a 10 year old boarder, Margaret Ebbett (Ebert). Margaret was born in Missouri. The parents of Margaret are not known. No female child named Ebert born between 1867 and 1872 has been found in any Noble County family in church records or other census records. The census states that Damian and his sister were born in Hesse. Ajdacent households were those of John Roehrig and John Brahler.
In February 1883, Father Kluber traveled to Caldwell on a routine journey and was beset by severe pain from his hernia. He died a few days later.
Father Kluber's obituary appeared in The Calwell Citizens' Press on 1 Mar 1883
DEATH OF FATHER KLUBER
Died in Caldwell, Ohio Wednesday Feb. 21st, 1883, Rev. Damien
Joseph Kluber, aged 45 years.
The deceased was born in Fulda, Prussia December, 1837, educated
for the priesthood in the Roman Catholic Church and emigrating to America,
was settled as pastor at the Church at Fulda, this county, twenty-three
years ago and has faithfully administered to his care during all these years.
He was a man of fine scholarly attainments and most amiable character. His
charity was bounded only by his ability to contribute. He was much liked
by all classes and he was always kind, sincere friendly and even jolly in his
intercourse with society. His influence was such as to dispel much of the
prejudice many have toward Catholic Priests, for in him was seen every day
the devoted Christian gentleman.
His funeral, Friday 23d, was largely attended, the large church was crowded.
Rt. Rev. Bishop Watterson assisted by attending eulogy. Fladung of Church-
own, Mulhane and Hanson of Columbus and Kuehn of Marietta celebrated
requiem mass and an address prepared in 1879 by the deceased was read to the
sorrowing people.
For the past five or six years, Father Kluber was the Fulda Correspondent
of the Press, and many of his short articles have been copied by other papers.
His manner of writing was terse and incisive, and such was his modesty and
sense of propriety that he rarely alluded to anything especially Roman Catholic
without first be requested to do so by us or obtaining on consent.
By his will Rev. Edward Flading, his nephew, was made executor, and he, in
behalf of the church requests us to extend their hearty thanks to the people of
Caldwell for their interest and sympathy; to C. Reme and family of F. Shafer for
special care and to D. McKee for sis untiring attention during the illness of the
deceased.A brief note in the "Personal" column of the Caldwell Citizens' Press on 31 May 1883 stated:
Rev. E. L. Fladung was in town [Caldwell] Tuesday transacting business
concerning the estate of his uncle, Rev. D. I. Kluber.An article in The Zanesville Signal on 29 Mar 1940 on the 15th Anniversary of the Father Klueber Council of the Knights of Columbus in Caldwell stated:
Father Damien Joseph Kluber... at the early age of 45 years.... was stricken
following an operation and died in Caldwell. He is bured at St. Mary's cemetery
in Fulda.

Researchers disagree on the first name: Anna Maria (Schott) vs. Margaret (Tipton).
Twenty two year old Wilhelm Krack came to America with his older brother Johann around 1841. No records of Wilhelm in America have been found.
