Adam Effertz Darshoven Estate


Darshoven Estate was inherited by Adam Effertz first wife, Anna Margarethe Schunk. The estate was then inherited by Adam's eldest son, Peter Wilhelm Effertz. Photo Source: Franklin Overby

Five of Adam's sons lived to adulthood, the oldest, Peter Wilhelm Effertz inherited Adam's estate in 1859. The four younger sons all emigrated to America in the 1860s - Christian Hubert Effertz and Peter Hubert Effertz emigrated together in 1864, brother Joseph Christian Hubert Effertz emigrated in 1866 and brother Johan Christian Effertz emigrated in 1869.

Darshoven no longer exist as the residents there were forced off of their land in the 1960's and 1970's during the expansion of a large, open pit coal mine nearby. Source: Bryan Sims.
