Page 38 – CHRISTIAN, WILHELMINA HELLBERG

1883

Christian John Hellberg, a native of Schleswig Holstein, Germany, settled with his brother on the South Fork of the Walla Walla River.

Hellberg worked as a farm hand in Germany until he was 21 years old. He then served in the German Army for 3 years, enlisting in the cavalry. At the end of his military service, he received an honorable discharge and medal for excellent marksmanship.

Arriving in the Unites States in 1883 from Hamburg, Germany, Hellberg traveled across the United States, working on different farms. He and his brother, Hans, later bought a farm on the Walla Walla River in an area populated by Germans from Schleswig Holstein.

Hellberg married Wilhelmina Eggers, also a native of Schleswig Holstein, July 25, 1889. Wilhelmina worked with Christian to establish their home.

Conditions were abundant for the Hellberg’s. They could catch beautiful rainbow trout any time, had cold spring water piped into the house, could find all the firewood they needed and gathered fruit for their health.

The couple donated land for the fist school to be built in the valley. And the teachers often received their room and board from the Hellsberg’s.

In 1908, Christian sold his home on the Walla Walla River and tried wheat farming, moving to the Hudson Bay area. The first 3 years were difficult, with the farm producing no crops because of drought.

Construction of the Burlingame irrigation ditch gave Hellberg the opportunity to irrigate part of his land. He paid $75 per acre for water rights, or double what he had paid for the land. The irrigation improved the crops and Hellberg was able to pay off his last debts 2 years before his death in 1938. His wife died in 1940.

The Hellberg’s are survived by their children; Otto J. Hellberg in Lowden, Ada F. Hellberg, in Stateline, Mrs. Emma K. McKee in Longview, WA, and Mrs. Cristine W. Mau of Portland.

One girl, Margaret, and two boys, William and Christian, died in infancy and are buried in the Bowlus Cemetery.

Alvina W. Hellberg died in 1949.

Some immigrants settled in Eastern Washington and brought to our community(Walla Walla) their skills in professions, trade, and above all husbandry. Many of these immmigrants were Lutheran and many were concerned about their spiritual welfare and that of their fellow man.

There is no record as to when the first Lutheran family arrived in the valley, but it would seem that Lutherans did not make their appearance until about the early 1880's. However, the first record of any Lutheran families, that we can determine, is that of the Bade brothers, Fritz and John, coming to Walla Walla in 1886. Soon thereafter the Eggers and Hellberg families also arrived. William and Herman Bade came to Dayton about this time. In the early 1890's the Knopf and Scheider families also came to the Walla Walla Valley. Descendants of all these families are still members of Emmanuel Lutheran today.

Eggers Family in reunion at Farm

The Eggers family gathered for a reunion on the Otto Eggers farm Prescott road, six miles from Walla Walla, August 24, with most of the descendants of Mr. and Mrs. Diedrich Eggers and of mrs. Christian Hellberg, nee Eggers, being present.

After a potluck dinner the relative gathered in the large front room of the Eggers residence to talk over old times and sing old hymns and songs.

The Rev H. Mau of Toppenish, married to Christina Hellberg, spoke briefly of the older generation, emphasizing that their Christian virtues, born of a strong Christian faith, provide the most valubable bequest left to their descendants.

A Supper was served in the evening.

Those present included Otto Eggers and family, Herman D. Eggers, and two sons and daughter-in-law, Mr. and Mrs. William D. Eggers, Gus Eggers and family, the Misses Alvina and Ada Hellberg, Mrs. E. A. McKee and children, Mrs. A Toll and the Rev and Mrs H Mau. Otto J Hellberg and family were unable to be present because of illness.

it was decided to have such a family reunion every year here after.
