Charles, son of Samuel Mummert and Catharine Elisabeth Wildasin,^[1] was born 17 October 1869 in Penn Township, York County, Pennsylvania.^[1] His parents had him baptized 26 April 1870 at St. Mathew's Lutheran Church in Hanover, York County. In 1880 his family continued to live in Penn Township.^[2] Resident in the home were his parents Samuel (age 42, farmer) and Catherine (45), Charles (11), his siblings Adam Edward (21. laborer), Henry William (20. laborer), Michael (15), Daniel (14), Sarah (9), Lydia (7), Albert Hoover (5) and his half-brother Lewis (25. laborer).^[2]

On 2 April 1893 in Hanover, he married Catharine Mary "Mary" Newman (Nauman),^[3] daughter of Johannes Naumann and Mary Ann Goodfellow^[3] and sister of Emmaline Elizabeth Nauman, who married Charles's brother Adam. Mary and Charles had three children:
