Notes: According to Sharon Gerber, Nicklaus had 9 children. John was the oldest. When he was old enough to work on his own, he moved away. While he was gone, the rest of his siblings caught diphtheria, and each child died. Later, Joseph was born. My guess is that John Moser moved from Forrest, IL to work in Bern, Kansas. When his siblings died, his parents moved to be with him, which is why Joseph was born in Bern. Nicholas married Elizabeth Adam on 20 Jul 1867.

6. | Samuel Baumgartner was born on 1 Apr 1845 (son of Benedicht Baumgartner and Anna Hauert); died on 26 Mar 1875; was buried in 1875 in Sabetha, Nemaha County, Kansas, USA. Notes: For many years, a single grave existed in a pasutre two or three miles southwest of the present Bern church. It was in a remote place by itself. For a long time it remained a mystery why a single grave was situated in this pasture. It was eventually learned that more than a century ago the grave was placed there to "hide" it from the Indians who would dig up graves of white men. The grave was that of Sam Baumgartner. In 1980, it was moved to the present church cemetary. Samuel married Elizabeth Meyer in 1867. Elizabeth (daughter of Johannes Meyer and Verena Strahm) was born on 7 Jul 1847; died in 1909; was buried in 1909 in Sabetha, Nemaha County, Kansas, USA. [Group Sheet] [Family Chart] |
