Research Notes

Note: Her n.s. birth date was 27 Sep.

She married in 1843 before her parents return to Chortitza. p. p487: baptized by Heinrich Wiens. Lehigh 1900 p. 85 gives a death date of Apr 1867, no specific day. This must be wrong. Her age is given as 14 in the 1835 Molotschna Colony Census, suggesting that she was born ca 1820 or 1821.

Note: Buried Schoental Cemetery 1mi E 1mi S of Tabor Church, rural Newton, KS
