Hi Joan:
I am glad to hear from a descendant of the Walworth County Ottmans.You know that Esther was the grandaughter of David (who was indeed a minister in New York) but you do not mention who her father was.
I'm assuming her father was Jeremiah.According to my information he was the only Ottman brother to remain in Walworth County.
Some pretty interesting characters in David's family.I'm especially interested in the one known as 'Uncle Chris'who seems to have been a very colorful character - Union soldier, a member of Buffalo Bill's Indian fighters, etc., etc.He had a daughter Ruby also.
