BIOGRAPHY:
Submitter: Ted White
Subject: Western NY and pig farm in MN
Message: I have a little info on Baumans of Western NY. My acnestors were John/Johann Wegman and Margaret/Margaretha/MArgeret Bauman. John was born in Lancaster near Buffalo and Margaret was born somewhere nearby. On her children's birth certificates it says Irondequiot and Rochester (different times). I do know that she was related to a family near Minneapolis, MN who had a pig farm. My mother and grandmother traveled to MN in the 1930s to see the farm. Margaret had her first child in 1857 and her husband was born in 1834, so my Margaret should be around that era. Any info would be great.
On Oct 7, 1856 when Johann was 22, he married Margaretha Bauman, daughter of Anton Bauman (1809-) & Gertrude Aman (Feb 19, 1814-), in St. Joseph?s, Rochester, Monroe Co., NY. Born in 1835 in Irondequoit, Monroe Co., NY. Margaretha died on Jun 29, 1903; she was 68. Occupation: Homemaker.
Could be Baumer/Baumn/Bauman. The baptism record in 1860 indicates she was born in Rochester. The baptism record of 1867 indicates she was born in Irondequoit.Died of cerebral thrombosis; 102 Lake Avenue/86 Lake Avenue, Ward 9; Listed as a peddlar at death****

Subject: Wakeman, Family
Message:Hi there, my maiden name is Robin Wakeman I am orig. from upstate New York. My Grandfather was William Wakeman, but he was born William Wegman/Wegmann. Please keep in mind when these German people came over from Germany and the census and certificates and all were made out(hand written) The writers wrote them as they sounded not as they should of been. When I was in the DC Archives I found many of my relatives as Wakemans not Wegmans as they should of been. So my Maiden name is Wakeman, which should have been Wegman. Search for your family with an open mind and look for similar spellings.
