John Baumgartner
| Note | John Baumgartner, b in 1809, is a part of Rosemarie Schulte's biological family: his daughter, Elizabeth Baumgartner, married George Welte, then their son Joseph Welte, married Pauline Nason. Pauline's father, Ralph Nason, was a brother of Helen, who married Garrett Frielink. Garrett and Helen's daughter, Frances Frielink, married Charles Lewis, whose daughter, Helen Lewis, was Rosemarie's mother. Wendelin Baumgartner, b in 1807 in Baden, later lived in MI; his daughter, Elizabeth, married January Trombly (part of Rosemarie Schulte's adopted family). I'm not sure if or how these two Baumgartner lines might be related, but they both came from Baden. Witness: Wendelin Baumgartner Witness: Rosemarie Jacquelyn Schulte | |
