Lily Biermann (Terrell) Aultman – Lost Lily
Two children, who shared my maiden name, found in the Cincinnati Children’s Home in the 1900 U.S. census. I passed them by – Lilly Bierman, age eight, and John Bierman, age two – they aren’t my family, I thought. I knew of no orphaned Biermann children in my family. I was looking for my grandfather, […]
Anna Schulte Beermann- Celebrating an October Birthday – 52 Ancestors 2015 #40
Week 40 of 52 Ancestors in 52 Weeks is broadly themed “October.” I went back through my ancestors looking for the first October date for someone I have not yet written about. Anna Schulte Beermann came up first. You would think that I would know a lot about my great-grandmother. She was born in Cincinnati, […]
Maria Elisabeth Hemesath – Genealogical Good Deeds – 52 Ancestors 2015 #8
The name Elizabeth Heimsath appears just once in the U.S. records for William Joseph Beermann. His death certificate indicates that she was his mother and his father was Christ Beermann. This was not a surname that I had ever heard before. Further, all I knew about my 2nd great-grandfather was that he emigrated to the […]

He was born 6 June 1862 in Cincinnati, Ohio, to recent immigrants, William Joseph Beermann and Mary Elizabeth Maune Beermann. On 6 June 1880, John F. Beermann […]

Right before Christmas I received new information about my maiden name – Biermann, or Beermann as it was spelled prior to 1910. It seems a fitting way to wrap up the year with an extraordinary finding about my […]

Entry #51 Here I am on the second to last night of 2014 posting the second to last entry for the 52 Ancestors in 52 Weeks Challenge. I have chosen my great, great-grandfather, Johann Heinrich “John” Schulte for the topic of this post since I have new information about him. My great, great grandfather, Johann […]
Wilhelm Joseph Beermann – Cincinnati Blacksmith – 52 Ancestors #15
Entry #15 My three greats grandfather, Josef Wilhelm “William” Beermann, came to Cincinnati, Ohio, from somewhere in Hannover around 1859-1861. It is possible that he is the Wilhelm Beermann found on the ship’s passenger list for the Admiral Browning which arrived in Baltimore Harbor in November 1860. Three pieces of data make me like him […]
