Hi - I am doing Baumgartner genealogy and was interested when I saw your rootsweb message.
My maiden name is Baumgartner and Benedict was my great, great grandfather. From the book
"The first 100 years of the Apostolic Christian Church" I have concluded that I
would be a 3rd cousin to Mildred, Rosella and Mary Jane. The 2 lines from Benedict go like
this: Jacob and brother Peter B.;
Saloma and first cousin Peter, Jr.; Lilie Marie and 2nd cousin Raymond (my father);
Mildred, Mary Jane and Rosella and 3rd cousin Avis (me). I am confused about the names
Schaefer and Schwartz in the obituary of Lillie. Her children are listed as Schwartz's
and it appears to me that they should Schaefer's.
I am a great granddaughter of Peter B. My grandfather was Peter, Jr.; my father was
Raymond. I have most of Peter Jrs.' family completed and some of Peter B.'s. Also
working on Nicholaus and Jacob.
I am interested in knowing more about the descendants of Jacob. I took a genealogy class
last fall and Everett King was in my class. We discovered we were 3rd cosins. Here is his
line beginning with Jacob. Jacob and Anna Geisel had a daughter, Lena (sister of Saloma)
who married William Henry Schwartz. They had a daughter, Mabel Esther Schwartz who married
Everett Earl King. They had a son, Everett Kay King, the one who is my 3rd cousin (he
passed away a couple of months ago).
Would love to exchange our Baumgartner family findings.
