I was checking out your awesome website and I was curious about the lack of mention of the weisheimer family. Paul Weisheimer was my grandfather. I didnt see any mrntion of their water mill/or in the 1st familys in clintonville. Dou have alot of materials/research/info on the weisheimer family and its contributions? I could talk to my Mom gayla weisheimer and my uncle craig weisheimer and scrounge up some photos stories/articles about our family if you don’t have them or know their story. I think the family mansion was sold in the late 60′s to the teaters if my info is correct. Thanks for your time, Eric. 614-507-2620 cell.

Hi Eric,
I have several pictures of Weisheimer properties that are in my published book, Clintonville and Beechwold. I would love to see the ones you have as well, and if possible, to scan them for this web site.

The mill on king was one of the first buildings I photographed when I started documenting remaining buildings that used to be served by railroads..I’d love to see photos of the mill @ king in action.

The mansion was on the market just this past year I think. Also, in my research, I vaguely recall hearing about one of the weisheimers starting a book… any information on that?
Cheers

The mill at King Avenue is, of course, outside of the scope of this web site. There is another Arcadia book due to be published in the latter part of 2009 about the North Columbus area, and it’s possible the King Avenue mill would be included in that. The Weisheimer family owned both mills. I’m not aware of a book about the King Avenue mill written by someone in the Weisheimer family, but someone may well have done so. Carl Weisheimer wrote a booklet about Sellsville, an area on the west side of the river; I don’t know if he wrote other books as well.
The Weisheimer mansion is featured in my book, Clintonville and Beechwold; it did change owners in the past couple of years.

Hey all, I am a local realtor in Clintonville and just noticed that the Weisheimer mansion came on the market today. Now would be a great time to get photos of the interior of this historic home if need be. Although I am not the listing agent for this property it has always been an interest of mine, if anyone has photos of the original mill I would love to see them. ryougn535@hotmail.com

Hello, There is a photo of the second generation mill–the one torn down in the early 1950s–in my book, Clintonville and Beechwold. -SH

My husband is the great grandson of Jacob Weisheimer. His grandfather was Alfred Weisheimer, one of the sons of Charles. We just went to Germany a few years ago and found out more information on the Weisheimers there and met several of them in Walheim, Koblenz, Andernach and Osthofen. We just hosted one of the 16 year old daughters this summer. I wonder if any of the other Weisheimer descendants would like to meet and talk.

My mother is Grace Weisheimer, daugher of my grandfather Carl Weisheimer, who owned and ran the mill on King Ave. I am currently doing research on the Weisheimer family in all references going back to Germany. I travel to Germany and want to visit relatives and historical reference poits. Any help is appreciated.
