Peter is the 3rd child of John Steiferman and Cecilia Muenks of Loose Creek, Missouri.

Peter married Anna Mary Cecilia Antweiler. They had 11 children. Among those children is Teresa Stieferman Lippoldt, also buried in this cemetery.


Peter Stieffermann, the third child of Matthias and Cecilia Stieffermann, was born 15 July 1853, at Loose Creek, Osage County, Mo. He was baptized in the Immaculate Conception Church, his Godparents were Peter Iven and Catharine Muenks.

He was a blacksmith by trade. It is told that his mother at first objected to his learning this trade, but she finally relented. Peter, however, would not begin his apprenticeship until his mother agreed to be present when he put on his leather apron, the mark of a blacksmith.

Peter married Anna Mary Cecelia Antwieler, 21 November 1882, at Stringtown, Cole County, Missouri. Cecelia Antwieler was born 25 August 1863, in Stringtown, Cole County, Missouri.

The couple started their married life with a ready made "family." They took care of Cecelia's two half-brothers and her Grandpa.

Eleven children were born to Cecelia and Peter in Missouri: Theresa, John, Josephine, William,. Catherine, Genevieve, Cornelia, Pauline, Charles, Louise, and Paul Norman. Charles and Paul Norman died in infancy.

Peter continued his trade until a doctor suggested he get more fresh air and sunshine. For this reason, the family, traveling by train, moved to Okarche, Oklahoma, in 1909. Peter took up farming, on land ten miles east of Okarche.

In 1911 the couple's twelfth child Caroline Josephine was born, but died the same day.

Peter retired from farming in 1917, and the couple and their youngest children, Corneal, and Louise, moved on an acreage, one block west of the Okarche city limits, in Kingfisher County. Their other children, with the exception of Genevieve and Pauline, were all married by this time. Genevieve and Pauline had entered the Sisters Adorers of the Most Precious Blood Convent.
