• Notes

  [Mueller-1999] and [Heian-2010] have “Heinrich Budahn’s” birth listed as “Donnerberg, Usedom-Wollin, Prussia” and “Stettin, Pomerania, Prussia” respectively. However, neither of these locations is supported by any vital records uncovered thus far. Moreover, the only contemporary reference for a “Donnerberg” is probably an historic village near Aachen in Nordhein-Wesfalen, a considerable distance from Gristow where Christian Heinrich Budahn and Anna Maria Schulz were married. On the other hand, [Greifswald-1820a] states that Christian Heinrich Budahn was “...of Dannenberg”, a village on the island of Wollin at the edge of the Baltic Sea. The modern location is the Polish village of Domysłów, Wolin. [Greifswald-1820a] is not conclusive evidence that Christian Heinrich Budahn was born in Dannenberg, but it is much more likely than locations supplied by other sources. [1, 2, 3, 5] Christian Heinrich Budahn’s surname is sometimes spelled “Budhan”. In fact this is the spelling used in [Greifswald-1820a] and [US-NARA-2003a1]. However, both before and after Heinrich’s emigration to the United States, the spelling “Budahn” appears more often in vital record and census sources. In addition “Budahn” is the more common spelling in the region of Pomerania where Heinrich lived. [1, 3, 6, 10] The 1850 US Federal Census for Dodge County, Wisconsin lists Heinrich’s surname as “Boden”. [Heian-2010] has Christian Heinrich Budahn’s burial in Immanuel Evangelical Lutheran Cemetery, but this is contradicted by interment records available in [Hocheim-2011]. [4, 5]
