    Notes:

    Additional research is required to determine conclusively that Casper Hoffman was the son of John and Catherine Hoffman. Although the small number of Hoffman’s in central Wisconsin at the time, indicates that this is actually the case.

    Marshfield, Wisconsin is now part of Marathon County.

    Casper Hoffman, along with his parents and siblings, must have emigrated from Bavaria in 1853 as his younger sister, Mary, was born at sea.

    Casper married Catherine Schaefer on 9 Jan 1872 in Fond du Lac, Fond du Lac County, Wisconsin, United States. Catherine (daughter of Joseph Schaefer and Maria Agnes Henschenmacher) was born in Aug 1850 in _______, _______, Wisconsin, United States; died after Jan 1920 in (unknown).

    Other Events and Attributes:

    • Census: 20 Jul 1860, Town of Lamartine, Fond du Lac County, Wisconsin, United States
    • Census: 29 Jun 1870, Metomen, Fond du Lac County, Wisconsin, United States

    • Census: 29 Apr 1910, Third Ward, City of Mayville, Dodge County, Wisconsin, United States
    • Census: 24 Jan 1920, Hubbard Township, Dodge County, Wisconsin, United States

    Notes:

    [US-1900-1k] notes that Catherine (Schaefer) Hoffman was the mother of 12 children of which 10 were still alive in 1900. Since only 5 are enumerated in 1880 and an additional 4 in 1900, there must be 3 children (1 living, 2 deceased in 1900) that are not accounted for in this database.

    There is considerable confusion regarding this individual’s name. Bonnell family sources use the name “Anna Katherine Schaeffer”. However a first name of “Anna” is only supported by a single post marriage census record. In all pre-marriage census records, as well as in [WHS-1872a], a variant of “Catherine”, without Anna, is used. In the birth records of her children, she is sometimes listed as “Elsie” or “Mary”.

    Catherine Schaefer was a domestic servant in the household of Almond and Augusta Osborn during the enumeration of the 1870 US Federal Census.

    Notes:

    Casper’s younger brother, Andreas, and Catherine’s younger sister, Elizabeth, witnessed their marriage in 1872.

    Notes:

    That Anton Henschenmacher died in Lamartine, Fond du Lac County is a deduction based on his being enumerated in the 1870 US Federal Census in the household of his daughter Maria Agnes (Henschenmacher) Schaefer and the fact that he is buried at Our Risen Savior Catholic Church Cemetery.

    Although listed as having been born in Prussia in the 1860 US Federal Census, depending on where exactly Anton Henschenmacher’s family were living in 1767, his birthplace may have been part of France.
