Classification: Query
Surnames: STEFFENS, BAUMER, MESSMAN
My gg-grandmother was Margaret STEFFENS b. MAR 1859 in Holland. I have just discovered that she was not born in Germany as I always thought. I was spelling her name STEFFEN, STEPHAN, STEFFAN or STEPHAN but never with an s on the end. (She married Frank BAUMER 1880 in Cincinnati).
1870 Cincinnati, Hamilton, OH census records indicate that she was born in Holland. Likely her sister was Mary b. JUL 1847 who married Frank MESSMAN and settled in Indiana. Her mother was Lena b. about 1815 in Holland. The family emigrated to the US about 1864-1866 per 1900 census information. I do not have passenger records at this time.
Looking for any information on STEFFENS from Holland.
