Re: Daums from Nassau, Prussia

In Reply to: Daums from Nassau, Prussia by PBiediger of 229

From the ship lists in "A New Land Beckoned" by Chester W. and Ethel Hander Geue this information is shown:

Daum, Anton, m, 53, Herschel, 1845
Daum, Charlotte - from Rehe Hesse; Georg Dillus 1845; sons, Leonhardt, Adolph
Daum, Christian - and wife, Franziska, 1845
Daum, Joh. - m. 38, from Holler, Nass; Herschel, 1845, w Marie nee Stauder; ch Marie, Johanne, Adam; Comal County 1850

From the 1850 Census of Comal County:

Daum, Johann 43 Wagon Maker Germany
Daum, Marie 40 Germany
Daum, Johann 15, Germany
Daum, Adam 11 Germany
Daum, Marie 8 Germany
Daum, Mariann 3 Texas
Daum, Peter 10 Mo. Texas

The Anton Daum above is my husband's gg grandfather. Anton was married to Catharina Pehl who died in Germany.

Anton's daughter, Maria Anna, was married to Peter Seidemann also from Holler. Maria and Peter's daughter, Helene Seidemann married Johann Reininger.

I have never made a connection from Anton and Maria Anna, to Johann and Marie Stauder Daum. Nor can I make a connection from Catharina Pehl (Daum) to my own Pehl lineage (they also came from Holler)

If you will write to Theogenia Bading, 1190 Fredericksburg Road, New Braunfels, Texas 78130 you might ask her to ask Tommy Daum. They both go to church at St. Peter and Paul, New Braunfels, Texas.

You will need to send a stamped self addressed envelope as Theo had polio as a young wife and mother and is now confined to a wheel chair. She has done extensive genealogy research on the Reiningers and the Leyendeckers (her lineage, and mine, too - we fourth or fifth cousins).

I found a web site for the ship list but don't know it off hand. Do a search for ship lists Germans.1845. or the Verein.

The church records are in the Catholic archives in San Antonio, Texas, the Mormon library on rolls, and, I believe, in the Texas State Library. The Sophienburg Archives in New Braunfels may have more information on Johann Daum.

Joh probably has a land grant at the Texas Land Board in Austin. All the immigrants signed these.

I hope this will help you.
