FAMILY STORIES

As recollected by or told directly to Colleen Joyce Lowe Fenrich



Summer, 1942 - Mt. Carmel, Illinois



Conversation with my great grandfather, James Nathaniel Dooms on my summer vacation in Mt. Carmel. Most summers my Dad and Mom and me drove to Mt. Carmel for a week and stayed with Grandmother and Grandfather Dooms. Please note that they were referred to as Dooms, not Doom.



Grandad had a butter churn on the back porch. As a child I loved to sit on his lap in a rocking chair and churn the butter. That’s when he would tell me stories, some of them about our family.

Observations on the rendering of the surnames FAEHNRICH and FENRICH.



The evolution in spelling and pronunciation is not at all uncommon with Germanic names.

In German, FAEHNRICH would be equivalent to the spelling and pronunciation of FAHNRICH - the “ae” combination is replaceable by the umlauted letter “a” - an umlaut being the “two-dot” accent mark. (my message here: as I can’t make an umlauted A or a, I’ll just surround that letter with quotation marks and you’ll know it should be an umlauted A or a) appearing over this vowel. An umlauted “a” in German is pronounced very much like the way we English speakers pronounce the short sound of our letter “e”, as in the word, “sent.”
