Administrators may save the emails in their list prior to March 2nd. After that, mailing list archives will remain available and searchable on RootsWeb
Francis Anthony Desept married Maria Theresa Bittdorf (date and location
unknown).
Their daughter Maria Anna Desept born about 1780 in or near Breisach, Baden
married Domink Christman(n) born 4 November 1779 in Breisach, Baden.
Children of Maria Anna Desept and Dominik Christman were:
- Protase Christman born 1805 in Breisach, married Frances Ott (they
immigrated to Wheeling, WV 1846
- Maria Walburga Christman(n) born Feb 25, 1807 in Breisach

Dominik had a brother by the name of Protase. Family history has it that
Dominik and his brother operated an Inn in Breisach.
That is all I know about the family of that generation. If anyone has more to
add I would be greatful to hear from you. And will share what I have on the
Christman line, before and after the people mentioned above.
Thank you
Margot
To Connie Christman and everyone,
There is a small town in, I think, in Carbon Co , near Jim Thorpe,
called Chrisman (Christman). I don't think it shows on recent maps. I
went there several years ago and interviewed the grandson of Adam
Chrisman (Christman). He did not know where Adam came from, but that he
had a very thick accent. Further checking found records in Monroe co..
If I can find my notes from that day, I will post further info if it
will help someone.

Hello all you Christman, Chrisman, Crisman researchers. Let me intoduce my
brick wall to you:
William Francis Christman(had the t put back in his name) b 24 July 1921
Bradford, Mckean Co Pa. D 18 June 1996 Wichita, Sedgwick Co. Ks.,s/o Earl
and Gertrude Carson Christman. Earl b and d ? Probably born in Kushequa
McKean Co. Pa. Wed 28 June 1916 in Olean NY. Earl s/o Francis Christman b
?1848 Long Pond Monroe Co. Pa d 11 Nov. 1895, Kushequa Pa. Wed Carrie?
b?Monroe Co. Pa (according to her obit) d 18 May 1927 Bradford Pa. Francis
and Carrie are both buried in the Nebo Lutheran Cem. Mt Jewett McKean Co.
Pa. not far from Kushequa. They are buried beside Burlington and Jennie
Chrisman (no t) Francis and Carries other children were Grover, Sherman,
Beulah and Mildred. Mildred b 24 April 1895 Kushequa Pa. D 12 Jan 1935
Barnsdall Osage Co. Oklahoma.
In Kushequa there was a Asher Christman wed to Esther Whalen in the late
1800s. There was also a Robert Christman who was a game warden in the
1930's. Believe them to be related to my Francis.
In the city directories in Bradford I found a Cora Christman living with
Carrie Christman in 1900, after she moved from Kushequa to Bradford. Any
help appreciated. Hope we get lots of activity on this list.

Hi, Everyone:
Another message from your friendly List-Owner. I promise this is the
last time I will send the same message to all three lists at the same
time. Unfortunately, we still have a few folks who are subscribed to
only one or two of the lists.
If you are not subscribed to all three lists, you will be missing out on
some of the fun. So - check the bottom of your message and see which
list you are on, and subscribe "soonest" to the ones you are missing.
A few ground rules:
We're all familiar with the usual rules of "Netiquette", which will apply
here as well. It is better if we remember to use CAPS for surnames, as
they are easier to spot.
When sending in a post, please send it to only one list. You may choose
your favorite spelling. It won't matter which list, as we'll all see it
anyway - if we're subscribed to all three lists.
Remember that the most effective queries include not only names, but
dates and locations, as best they are known. If you're looking for John
Chrisman, it helps to include his wife's name, if known, or the names of
the children, as there were probably a zillion or so John Chrismans
around.
Replies to posts may be sent directly to the individual seeking the
information. However, it may be more beneficial to everyone if replies
are sent via the lists. You might hold the ONE clue that makes a
connection for someone else who is just lurking out there.
To get us started, I'd like to ask those who have previously posted
messages to the list to please post them again. You have a much wider
readership now, so may get more help than you did before.
I'd also like to ask everyone to post some basic information about your
own "C" (or "K") line (how's that for dodging spelling??). You don't
need to include your entire genealogy, but do let us know where you are
in your research.
Example:
Ours is the Elisha Crisman line. He lived in Chester Co., PA from about
1750-1830. Mary _____ , his wife at the time of his death, may have been
a second wife. If so, who was the mother of his children? Who were his
parents? Major stone walls here.
One son, Thomas (ca 1793-1834) went to WV, where he died; his descendants
went on to OH and ultimately IA, MO, CO, CA and various other points
west. Elisha's other children stayed in Chester Co.
Elisha's eldest son, James (ca. 1778-1871), had several children. Three
of James' sons left Chester Co - William went to Mifflin Co. PA; and
James and Elisha to AL and GA. Some of their descendants went on to TX.
James' daughter, Hannah, married a Baum. This couple went to Utah with
Brigham Young.
Some of the descendants of these families now use the CRISSMAN or
CHRISMAN spelling.
-----------
There's more, of course, but this is already a long message - and there
are others on the lists who will be wanting to talk about some of these
same families.
So - consider this the firing of the starter's gun. Let's see those
posts, and begin finding those elusive ancestors and meeting new
cousins!!

Hi, Everyone:
I want to introduce myself as the new "list-owner" for the following
three lists:
CHRISMAN-L CHRISTMAN-L CRISMAN-L
I'm new at this "list management" business, so please bear with me until
I learn all this technical stuff. Meanwhile, there are a few other
things that we need to do to get the ball rolling.
We all know from experience that the variant spellings of the name run
all through our individual lines, and that we all really do need to be
talking to each other in order to get the most benefit. Thus it would be
nice if we could find a way to consolidate these three lists into one
master list. I have tried to find out more about this from Rootsweb, and
will continue to pursue it.
Meanwhile, it appears that we will have to deal with three lists. So, I
would like to suggest that all of you subscribe to all three lists, so as
not to miss out on anything just because of an alpha character or two.
As long as everyone is on board and following the same procedures, we
shouldn't have any spam problems.
If everyone is subscribed to all three lists, all of us will all see all
the messages. Anyone wishing to respond to a message can "reply" to a
message on any one list. Or, anyone may initiate a message to the one
list of their favorite spelling. If we are all subscribed to all the
lists, it won't matter which list your message goes to. It will not be
necessary to send three messages.
I recently wrote to some of you and asked you to join all three lists.
So many of you did that we've nearly doubled the number of subscribers!
This time around, you will be getting three copies of this message. This
allows me to reach all the people who were already subscribed to only
one of the lists, and also confirms to you that you are receiving
messages on all three lists.
As soon as everyone is on all the lists, I'll be sending out another
message to help get us started with the good stuff!
Subscription procedure for all lists is the same:
Send a message to
CHRISMAN-L-request(a)rootsweb.com
(or CHRISTMAN-L-request(a)rootsweb.com
or CRISMAN-L-request(a)rootsweb.com)
that contains (in the body of the message) the command
subscribe
and no additional text.
You will receive a welcome message confirming that you are on the list.
>From then on, any messages will come in on your e-mail automatically.
The welcome message will also explain other mail list options, including
"digest mode" and how to unsubscribe.
