Ferdinand Brossart
Ferdinand Brossart was a German American prelate of the Roman Catholic Church. He was born in the Diocese of Speyer, and served from 1915 to 1923 as the fourth bishop of the Diocese of Covington.
==Early life==
Ferdinand Brossart was born on October 19, 1849 in the village Buechelberg, Rhenish Palatinate, in that time belonging to the German Kingdom of Bavaria. Today it is a part of the city Woerth am Rhein〔Woerth am Rhein in the German Wikipedia with map and remark that Ferdinand Brossart is a son of the city〕 and belongs to the new German State of Rheinland-Pfalz. His parents Ferdinand Brossart and Catharina née Diesel were simple farmers. They emigrated to America when Ferdinand was two years old. First they landed in New Orleans, but moved very quick from here, for the outbreak of yellow-fever. Then they settled down in Cincinnati. The Brossarts moved across the river to southern Campbell County, in 1861. Choosing to become a priest, Ferdinand Brossart studied at Mount Saint Mary Seminary in Cincinnati, Ohio and the American College at Louvain, Belgium. He was ordained a priest for the Diocese of Covington by Bishop Toebbe on September 1, 1872. Father Brossart became popular when Lexington suffered a smallpox epidemic, sacrificing his health to administer to the sick and dying. The priest was appointed Vicar General in 1888, along with being assigned as rector of the old cathedral. His 25th. ordination-jubilee he celebrated on a pilgrimage in Lourdes France. After Bishop Maes' death, Father Brossart was picked by Pope Benedict XV in November 1915. Brossart is the only diocesan priest from Covington to have been chosen as bishop.
