The Brandt Cemetery

April 22, 2009

It is a warm summer morning in Brandt and a high-stepping horse draws a battered two wheeled cart up through the dewy grasses to a low meadow. Black plumes bounce with his every step, black garlands drape a wooden casket. The horse tramps nervously, flicking his ears back and forth as if he knows the truth behind the rumors that several large rattlers had been seen lying out just east of the clay banks. A somber group of mourners tread dolefully behind…At the top of the footpath, they approach an overgrown field. Purple loosestrife and columbine can be seen in the distance, bobbing their heads above the timothy and wild oat. Mountain laurels, long past their bloom, dot the borders, keeping the wood at bay. The year is 1861 and it is a first committal to the new burying ground in Brandt….

This could have been the scenario played out with that first burial in the Brandt Cemetery, we will never know exactly who or when this happened because the original records were lost when an acid factory’s explosion in 1908 razed so much of the villages’ industries and businesses. The records – kept in a back portion of the nearby Presbyterian Church were lost while the church was saved. It wasn’t until the early 1960’s that a cemetery association was formed and an attempt was made to reproduce new records. The diligence of this organization and their various correspondences with the family/families of the departed gives us a more accurate account of the stones and the burials – but not all markers can be identified as some bear just a few words or initials. Several letters went unanswered, a number of relatives were never found.

Various stones rest at Brandt with inscriptions intact and legible- just as strong and crisp as the day they were inscribed. Others remain with some of carvings lost to time and weather – others are blank quarry stones that have been tipped with the weights of winters past. Several graves are there without an acknowledgement of any kind. It is the stones that are still legible that I have posted in my gallery, over 250 markers that are still decipherable. While a number of them may be missing parts of a name or a date, my sister, our New York cousin and I, were able to positively identify and map correctly all that I have posted. Using the secretary’s notes of the 1960’s and doing some rubbings, we were able to resurrect a good portion of these stones.

Perhaps one of your relatives lived in this modest little village or once worked at a Brandt factory, they may have been members of one of its churches. Perhaps you will find their stone still resting in this quaint old cemetery.

The Stevens Point Church 58th Anniversary

April 11, 2009

Tucked inside of the Old Home Day Guest book, are three handwritten pages of notes taken during an anniversary service held at the Stevens Point Methodist Episcopal Church on November 10, 1944. The writer refers to this service as the “58th anniversary of the founding of building the Stevens Point church.” When I first read this, I thought that the author was incorrect with the anniversary date as the cornerstone on the church has 1896 as its inscription. Upon re-reading the text, it refers to the “founding of the building” and maybe not the actual completion date. And there definitely would have be a time difference- from the date of land purchase, planning, materials, finding enough men for the labor and finalizing the building to completion-it may have been quite a few years.

If you had a relative that lived in or around Harmony Township during the 1940’s, there is a good chance that they were at this celebration. So, come now, read the notes from that day as our secretary has graciously written everything down, even the names of all of the attendees….

The Town of Brandt, PA – Brandt’s Station on the Jefferson Division

April 4, 2009

A small passenger train slowly wends its way down the Jefferson Branch of the Erie Railroad, the engineer making a leisurely descent as he prepares to stop at Brandt Station. A few men are waiting with a load of quarry stone that has to be loaded; several milk cans are being kept cold on the back of an old wagon. The conductor quickly switches mail bags with the postmaster and two older ladies board the train. A man alights onto the wooden platform, he has the look and feel of “city” and in fact, he is “city”- an editor from Carbondale and he has come to do a piece about Brandt for his newspaper. As he walks down to stand on the wooden bridge that spans the Starrucca Creek, let’s join him there as he gathers his thoughts on how best to compose his story. And because it is his story, we need to let him tell it..

Brandt Station

Brandt Station

“Brandt’s Station on the Jefferson division is one of the places in this hilly country which is not calculated to make a favorable impression upon visitors who take their first view of the place from the depot platform. Directly opposite the station a rather dingy three-story structure looms up with bears upon its weather boards in huge letters, the legend “Brandt Chair Manufacturing Company”. A little to the left a group of smaller buildings may be seen, al bearing upon a smaller scale a similar legend. A few rods above the depot a wooden bridge spans the Starrucca Creek and a dilapidated looking blacksmith shop close by, completes the rather interesting first glimpse of Brandt’s.

The man who makes up his opinion of the village and the people who inhabit the place, from the first glimpse, will be forced to the conclusion later on that the old maxim, “first impressions are safest”, will not apply to Brandt’s. At least that was the conclusion which a party of Carbondale gentlemen arrived at after spending a few hours in the village on Saturday. The residence portion of the village completely hidden by the factory and the store buildings, and is not until on has crossed the stream and ascended the further bank that a view of the homes can be obtained.

The man who visits Brandt’s for the first time is treated to a grand surprise. Instead of a factory village, with its one story tenements that one naturally expects to see, he finds beautiful homes in the most charming homelike place in the world. The residence portion of Brandt’s is simply a beautiful park. The roadways are drives and the walks are free from the objections found by pedestrians in more pretentious places. Many of the dwellings are handsome modern structures and the entire park is filled with attractive homes. Near the entrance stands the church, a brick structure, handsomely finished and furnished, with a seating capacity for two hundred.

A little farther down the principal driveway stands the town hall which does service at all public gatherings. The building is new, of pretty design, and erected at a cost of nearly two thousand dollars. It contains a reading room, dining room and kitchen and on the second floor a commodious hall. This building is leased to the Young Men’s club at a nominal rental and every effort has been made to provide such elegant quarters for their use. Brandt’s industries are numerous and apparently profitable. The manufacture of chairs employs at present seventy-five men and boys. The chairs made at this establishment are among the finest made in this country. People who look with distrust upon factory made furniture, should visit these shops and see for themselves how substantially Brandt’s chairs are put together. The upholstering department is presided over by a gentleman who is master of the profession, and in the wood-making room several skilled carvers are employed who deftly transform the “oak wood” into life-like figures. Less than half a mile from the chair factory, down the stream, is located the brick yards where 25, 000 brick are made daily during the brick-making season. About the same distance up the stream from the village is located the tile and brick works which is the newest industry of the village. Here bricks are made that vie with the best grades f the Philadelphia article for smoothness. Paving brick which has withstood the severest of tests, and all manner of sewer pipe are also made at these works.

The clay deposits on the Brandt lands are the richest to be found anywhere. The mountains are filled with it and the pits at the tile works show that the clay bed is more than thirty feet thick. The supply is virtually inexhaustible and the men at the head of the brick-making enterprise have material for one of the largest plants in the world. The clay is free from sand and is fine enough when taken from the pits for use in the manufacture of all kinds of pottery. The Messrs. Brandt and Kessler, who own these industries, are pushing, enterprising gentlemen, and these industries, now in their infancy, will, we predict, within a few years attract the attention of the world by the superior quality of the ware made at Brandt’ tile and pottery works.”

Stevens Point Ladies Aide Society

April 2, 2009

As with a lot of small country churches in the past, many people played a huge role in its upkeep-the men had to make sure that there was plenty of wood or coal to heat the building, the ladies did their part with keeping the church clean and supplied. Monies were always needed to upgrade or replace items needed for the worship services, for missionary work or for the maintenance on the property or structure.

Because Stevens Point Methodist Church had an attractive community hall next door, the members had the opportunity to raise monies for the church and other organizations by utilizing the hall with special dinners and functions. This little community had a wealth of “willing workers”, ladies that were very busy, not only with their own lives, but were full of activity for church work as well. I have posted numerous pages of minutes from the Stevens Point Ladies Aide Society-the organization that was this strong support system for the Stevens Point Methodist Church. Enjoy a glimpse into the past and perhaps you will recognize one of your relatives as one of these “willing workers”.

Scanned pages of the The Stevens Point Ladies Aide Society ledger can be found in the gallery.
