1 Feb 2013 Descendants of Johannes Rosenstiel Page 35
was born near Emsworth, in the same county, and both were descendants of the Pennsylvania Dutch.
The son remained at home until he was 18 years of age, working at farming and in the blacksmith shop
with his father. On the Monday evening following the call of President Lincoln for 75,000 three months
men, Mr. Colmer placed his name as first on the roll of a company of volunteers being recruited by
Thomas Gibson, Jr., at a place called Cross Roads, not far from Bakerstown, Allegheny county. After
the company had been partly recruited, they went to Pittsburgh, but the quota from Pennsylvania was
now filled, and the company was not accepted; but they still held their organization, and when the call
came for three years men, they were again doomed to disappointment, so many troops being ahead of
them. They then decided to equip themselves as an independent company, and while preparations were
being made to this end, word was received that they were wanted at Wheeling, Va., to which place they
went. Mr. Colmer was mustered into the service as sixth corporal, but on account of good conduct and
attention to his duties, rose step by step until June 17, 1862, he was promoted first sergeant of the
company, and held this position until September 29, 1862, when he was promoted to second lieutenant.
On several occasions he acted as adjutant of the regiment, and had command of his company on the
Salem Raid. On April 27, 1864, he was promoted to first lieutenant, and detailed to the position of
adjutant, but declined the position, as he had become so attached to the members of his company that
he did not wish to be taken away from them. He served his full term of enlistment and was mustered out
with the company. Lieut. Colmer received what education he had by careful attention to studies in the
four months per year schooling then in vogue in country districts, and in the summer of 1860, took a
course of bookkeeping in Duff's College, Pittsburgh. He was married on December 22, 1868, to Miss
Mary E. Scott, of Sharon, Mercer county, Pa., but a native of Allegheny county. The result of this
marriage is a family of four bright children, the oldest, William H., now in his 21st year, Alice Scott 16,
Lizzie Bell 14, and Charles Stevenson 4 years old. Since the war Lieut. Colmer has served in several
responsible positions. For a long time he was clerk in the Pittsburgh pension office; for over 12 years
bookkeeper for one large firm in Allegheny City, and is now agent for the Allegheny Insurance Company,
of Pittsburgh. He is now serving his 18th year as permanent secretary of Twin City Lodge, No. 241, I. O.
O. F., also as trustee of the same lodge during the last 18 years. He also served as secretary of
Allegheny Lodge 223, A. F. and A. M., for six years after the close of the war. He now resides at Avalon,
Pa., on the P. F. W. & C. Railway, six miles down the Ohio river from Pittsburgh. Lieut. Colmer served
his country wel1 and faithfully. He was a brave and accomplished officer, respected as such by all the
men of the regiment, and a gentleman held in the highest esteem by all his comrades. As a citizen there
are none truer, and he is a worthy and honored son of the country he helped so ably to protect. from the

Co., PA. He was buried in Harrold's Cemetery, Greensburg PA. My Grandfather Rosensteel, that is Levi
Jr., always told me that his Grandfather, Isaac Rosensteel, was killed by a streetcar. I thought, perhaps,
if I would research a newspaper at the time of his death on February 13, 1900, it just might make the
news. And it did!
The Greensburg paper had information in the article that I never expected to find. Isaac was killed by a
1 Feb 2013 Descendants of Johannes Rosenstiel Page 48
streetcar in Pittsburgh. According to the article and following the accident, Isaac mumbled his name but
bystanders could not understand him and thought he said his name was Lowenstein. He died shortly
after the accident. The obituary listed his two children, Charles John and Emma Jane, but Levi was
listed as his stepson!
No records were ever found showing Levi's mother, Maria Louisa Kemp, being married to any person
other than Isaac Rosensteel. When Levi was four years old, he took the name Rosensteel when his
Mother married Isaac.
After Maria's death at age 38, Isaac married Susan Keener, a widow with six children of her own. Prior
to this marriage, Isaac had taken care of Susan and these children. However following the marriage,
Susan asked Isaac to also take care of her brother and his three children. Isaac refused and they
separated. Divorce papers in the Westmoreland County Court House indicated they never really lived

"My recollections of Grandpa Rosensteel were more of curiosity than anything. He
lived alone at the Rosensteel home on 525 Green Street in Southwest Greensburg
when I was growing up. Most of the time, he was inebriated from excessive drinking.
From time to time, we would see Grandpa Rosensteel, wearing a brown suit and
brown hat, walking the streets of downtown Greensburg but never in a straight line.
My sister, Carol, and I would walk past his home on our way to school each day. Our
eyes would search the outside of the house for a glimpse of the old man. However, if
he was working outside, we would run to the other side of the street as we were afraid
of him. For you see, we knew him, but he did not know us.
He was born to Maria Louisa Kemp and was a stepson to her husband, Isaac
Rosensteel. After Maria died at the age of 38, Levi was placed in a guardianship under
Uriah Kemp, his mother's brother. His uncle, Henry Kemp, and Henry's two maiden
sisters, Sarah and Elizabeth Kemp, took Levi, then 14 years old, to raise him.
When Levi married, he named his first child, a daughter, Sarah Elizabeth, after these
two maiden aunts. The name "Elizabeth" was then passed on to my mother, Helen
Elizabeth Rosensteel Soles, Sarah Elizabeth's niece."
