The Witsaman Family
Wilbur Witsaman and Anna Marie Yenny were elementary school classmates at Aultman School. Both the Witsaman and Yenny families had lived in the Aultman area (Summit and Stark Counties) for several generations (see family tree next attached). Wilbur’s father, Oscar Homer Witsaman, worked in the brickyard at Aultman. Anna Marie’s father, Yost Yenny, had a celery farm on Wise Road.
In 1914 Wilbur and Anna Marie were married. In 1923 Wilbur and Anna Marie Witsaman purchased Aultman School from the Board of Education of the Township of Green and converted the schoolhouse into a craftsman or bungalow/cottage-style home. According to the Witsaman Family, Wilbur and Anna Witsaman moved to the schoolhouse with a horse and buggy from Anna’s sister’s home (Leah) on the south side of Greensburg Road.
Wilbur and Anna Marie had five children, Carl L., Arline, Roy, Glenn Homer, and Dawn. Glenn Homer Witsaman married Carolyn Marie Heisa. Carolyn’s ancestors, the Heisa, Nevel, Sweigert , and Tritt families have also been in Stark and Summit Counties for several generations.
Upon the death of Wilbur Witsaman on April 11, 1976, the property was transferred to Glenn Leroy Witsaman, the son of Glenn Homer Witsaman and Carolyn Marie Heisa, and the grandson of Wilbur and Anna Marie Witsaman. Glenn Leroy Witsaman is married to Rebecca B. (Stadelman) Witsaman. Rebecca’s ancestors, the Rider Family, have been residing in Stark County since at least the 1880’s (see attached tree).
Glenn Leroy Witsaman and his wife Rebecca B. Witsaman continue to reside in the subject property and maintain the property in a state as it was remodeled by Glenn Witsaman’s grandparents in the 1920’s.
