Notes par Herman Henry BEHRMAN

According to Melvin Behrman, Herman and his brother Henry came to the U.S. with their mother. (See notes under Mariah Elizabeth Huddlebrink.) Their dad didn't make it over, having died in Germany. Melvin's grandfather (Henry) and Earl's grandfather (Herman) were brothers. Herman and Henry's dad, Wilhelm, had brothers over in Germany. After coming to America in 1866, Herman lived with his mother and brother Henry in the Cincinnati area (Hamilton County), Ohio, until sometime in 1870. Herman was listed in the 1870 Ohio census. His son, William J. Behrman was born in Indiana on July 23, 1870.

 

According to Mary Ellen Sweet Grossman, genealogist in the Clerk's office in Bartholomew County, Indiana, Cincinnati had a fire and the courthouse records burned. Therefore, I was unable to find any record of Herman's naturalization. Hamilton County in Ohio had no record, and neither did Bartholomew County in Indiana. Ms. Grossman said that they didn't have to file, but had to be a citizen to sell land. They did not have to be a citizen to buy land. She said the Germans were very precise about records. His brother, Henry Gerhart, filed his "intent to naturalize" in Bartholomew County on October 7, 1876.

 

Melvin thinks that Johann Heinrich Friedrick Christoph Behrmann, who came to the U.S. earlier and settled in Waymansville, might have helped Herman and Henry get over here. As of yet, I have not established the relationship between the two. Melvin said that an industrialist in Waymansville, by the name of Tobrocke, paid for their fare over to the U.S. Tobrocke owned and operated the sawmill and flour mill, and Herman and Henry had to work off their fares. Mr. Tobrocke was a native of Germany. He married Anna Marie Catharine Kreinhagen who was a member of Whitecreek St. John's Lutheran Church. They purchased more than 640 acres of land in the Waymansville area. Melvin said to check the census. In the 1880 census, his brother Henry was listed under the Tobrocke, Wm. J. family. Mr. Tobrocke owned the sawmill. Henry Behrman, 23, worked in the saw mill and lived in the Tobrocke home. Henry's place of birth was given as Prussia.

 

According to the Waymansville Lutheran church records, Herman was a charter member of St. Peter when it was formed in 1870. Before the church in Waymansville, the people attended the Lutheran Church at White Creek or St. Paul Lutheran Church (Borchers). However, because of the distance they had to travel, they started a church in Waymansville.

 

In the church minutes from October 4, 1874, it says, " In the previous meeting Mr. H. Beermann was instructed to find out why W. VonStrohe has not attended the meetings, since he had been asked in writing to vindicate himself in the meeting concerning his neglect of congregational duties. They said Mr. VonStrohe did indeed come to church on this day, but did not remain for the congregational meeting, but left. That he would do this he had already told Mr. Beermann in his house. Through such behavior, everyone had to realize that he has deliberately despised the admonition of the congregation. That he is a malicious and obstinate sinner, he has proven also by this that for years he has hardly ever come to church in spite of the fact that he had been admonished concerning thus. Therefore the congregation declared that Mr. W. Vonstrohe has excommunicated himself from the congregation by his behavior (attitude). We, therefore, much look upon him as a heathen and a publican and not as a Christian brother. May the Lord, however, grant that the eyes of this despiser of God's Word may be opened, so that he may not die in his blindness and goes to hell."

 

William Earl Carothers said that Charlotte Behrman remembered Herman. The family lived with him on the Behrman homeplace north of Waymansville. Charlotte and her sisters, Mable and Mildred, were born there, as well as their father, John. William Earl has a picture of the house. He was told by his mother, Mildred, that the house was destroyed by fire some years later.
