John Thiergartner's New Barn

In 1902, Chuckery really was a bustling community.  Members of St. Paul Lutheran Church worked to erect a new church building.  Albert Gaulke made additions to his house to accommodate his growing family.  And, John Thiergartner erected a new barn on his farm, located about a mile south of Chuckery on the Chuckery-Plain City Pike (present-day Lombard Chuckery Road).  Today, the 1902 St. Paul Church building is gone.  And so is John Thiergartner's barn.
