I just noticed that my other posts were under the name of Louella Braman Schmidt not CLBSED. However, both are one and the same. Has anyone made any new discoveries on our elusive Braman family? As I've previously stated, now that I know ggfather's Anjou work was a fabrication, I am stuck. Louella

Hi Larry,

As you have read, I am a great grand daughter of the first CAB. Although, I have a couple of the photos that you posted, I am enjoying the others. I have a couple of them that you have not showed and that you might enjoy. Perhaps, we could exchange other family data? Please e-mail me at CLAUDIALBS@aol.com.

Thanks, Louella

i used to be ncc74656 till I lost my info now I'm msbe1, sorry i didn't get back with you Sandy but we moved. I thank you for your offer i am not sure what I would want if you went I did get photographs of headstones from Linda L. Now i am trying to figure out the whole Mudge thing meaning the Rebecca Greensmith stuff and Jarvis Mudge, things change facts and things so it is hard to separate fact from fiction.

If anyone here has birth records of Micah and Moses Mudge sons of Jarvis with their mothers name on the record that would be most helpful.

Braman from France

stevesgilbert — 2009-02-02 00:41:05Z

Hi everyone,

I was wondering if any of you had a Braman (or Bamans or Bramant) originating from France, more precisely from the ancient provinces of Berry, Bourbonnais and Bourgogne.

Anyone?

I am descended from Stephen Braman. I live near the cemetery where he is buried. His father's tombstone is there also along with several other family members. Some of the stones are unreadable but if there is something you want me to find out, I will check it out for you. The cemetery is in the northwest corner of Ohio, close to Michigan and Indiana.

Whose wife was the Cynthia of Hopkinton?

ReginaldJackman — 2008-06-10 14:05:55Z

I have a question concerning Cynthia Brayman. The Rhode Island Cemetery data for Hopkinton provides that she was born abt 1765 and died 1838 Nov 5.

Previously I had assumed that this Cynthia was the Cynthia Stedman, who married (1783) John Braman Jr. (b. 1765). But now I have noticed that John's brother Joseph (b. abt 1763) also married a Cynthia. Since John and Joseph were both having families during the same time period, it seems logical that there were two Cynthias.

I tend to associate Cynthia Stedman with the South Kingstown area. And Joseph's children were born in the Hopkinton area. So I wonder whether the Cynthia Brayman buried in the Hopkinton Cemetery might have been Joseph's wife, rather than John's?

Now John is said to have subsequently married (2) Mary Park and (3) Eunice Cheseborough. If John's Cynthia was not the Cynthia of the Hopkinton Cemetery, then perhaps John's Cynthia may have passed before John married Mary.

How am I connected? My connection is speculative. I am a descendent of William Wilson (b. 1801 SK) who married (1828 Wakefield) Mary Braman (b. 1813 SK). I am speculating that Mary was a daughter of John Brayman (b. 1783) who married (1804 SK-1B:228) Susannah Sherman, where John was a son of John Brayman Jr. (b. 1765) who married first Cynthia Seadman.

Hi Mark,
I guess the Big question and it was with another person I spoke to was connecting Isaac Braman born in 1769 and Margaret White born in 1772. Could you share what you have from Silas to now. I do have Silas in my file in preparation someday of connecting your family to the rest of the Braman clan. No one seems to connect Isaac Braman born in 1769 to anyone? Strange. Do you know? Thanks for writing.

Has anyone found the definate name of Jesse Braman's parents, the Jesse who was married to Martha Mudge? Has anyone found a real link to the other Bramans that have come from England? I have researched alot of sites and seen other peoples trees but there has been no proof of a tie that I have found. As far as anyone gets is Jesse and Martha and then there tree stops, so who were his parents and proof?

Hi:
Maybe we can fill some data in! Your Joseph Braman might have married my great-aunt, then Ruth M. Boerger, up in Jamaica New York. I don't have marriage date but they were divorced in Reno in 1927 (I don't have that but have information that is accurate). They had one daughter, also named Ruth. Does any of this sound familiar? If so, contact me and we can share more.

Re: William J. Braman

2005-12-13 01:27:40Z

Actually, you are a big help. The family story was that the Bramans are connected to the Johnstons by marriage but no one was able to verify that. Now I have a possible connection. The first name of William may have come about much later than your Johnston marriage.

Re: William J. Braman

2005-12-04 20:11:52Z

Yes, but I still haven't been able to link them. It's a family story that they are related but has been a brick wall. Who is your Johnston connection?

Henry B. Braman, Civil War veteran

melmom78 — 2006-05-20 17:49:44Z

A while back, an item was posted about the return of Henry's Bible (which he carried while imprisoned at Andersonville) to the Easthampton Historical Society. There was a statement therein that Henry never married, which didn't seem right to me. I finally got around to researching it. He did marry--twice, in fact. Information about the first marriage (which I have from notes I made from the family Bible for our branch) is confirmed by MA Vital Records of 1841-1910 (online at New England Ancestors, although to view the database one must be a NEHGS member). Henry Braman married Sarah Elizabeth Birney 5 April 1869 in--oh rats, I think it was Easthampton! On 1870 census Sarah, Henry, and George (~6 mos old) were living in Easthampton. On 1880 census, Sarah, Henry and George (11 years old) were living in Torrington, CT. Henry worked at the brass mill (Coe Brass, or whatever preceded it, later on American Brass). No 1890 census, of course. On 1900 census (and all subsequent through 1930) Henry is married to Amelia. On 1930 census, when Henry is 88 (!) Amelia is 71 (I think--younger than Henry, anyhow) and they have been married for 43 years, which puts their marriage date at about 1887. Henry and Sarah's son George married Eunice Helme Meeker; they had Arthur Henry on 4 Aug 1897 (thanks for the lookup, Belle!), and Sarah was born 26 Oct 1909. Only those two children on 1930 census. I don't know Henry's exact death year, but my mother (b 1924) remembers him riding in an open car for Torrington's parades (Armistice Day and Independence Day) "during the 1930s," as the town's oldest surviving Civil War veteran. Given what a child remembers at what age, that might have been as late as 1934 or 1935.

Belle, IF you are ever at the Town Hall again, and can find where Henry is buried, I would like to register his grave with the Sons of Union Veterans organization. (We could always have another luncheon at THAT cemetery!)

Hi! The Johnstons go back a ways. Enos Lewis Braman[ son of James Braman] married Lydia Johnston. Her parents were Cyrus Johnston b.1772 and Polly Harvey b.1772. His father, Col. Robert Johnston and his brother, Charles, and their father Michael served in the Revolution. In all their children ,I do not find the name William. Of course, I probably do not have all of them. [ I am looking for James Bramans first wifes name who probably died abt 1794. I think it might help me figure out who his parents were.] Sorry I'm not more help.

Hi! I found a message about James Braman and a possible wife,Susann Sherman that you had posted. I was wondering if you had found anything? My husbands James Braman married Abigail Dewey 1795 and she is the mother of his ancestor, but she isn't the mother of James older children. I think if I can figure out who all he was married to, it would lead to more family and a way to James father?? You will need to contact me at my e-mail address. Thanks! Karen

Mary Jane- please take a look at my posting in the Braman family site on Rootsweb today. I am not a big Braman researcher but I have some names and , with my brother, we are trying to bring this line down to the present because of our Lefler interest. Bob Lefler(Gertrude Lefler Braman)

Gertrude Lefler Braman m Joseph Herbert Braman 1905,NYC

BobTracie — 2005-12-02 14:52:13Z

Hi all- My brother and I have persued this Lefler line for three years and we are down to the children of this marriage trying to see if the line still exists. One of their children was a Herbert Braman who severed in the Army Air Corps during WWII and is buried in the National Cemetery at Calverton,LI,NY. A son Joseph died in 1955 and a daughter Lucy was 22 in 1930 but still unmarried. They lived in Ohio and then in Jamica,LI and areas.
The Braman descendency is from Ella Francis Collins b. 24 March 1850 in Brighton, Suffolk, Mass married Joseph Balch Braman s/o Issac Gordon Braman and Caroline Williams Balch, thence Joseph M, Susan Caroline, Joseph C, Joseph Herbert and Ella Angela. These are just some names. Apparrently the family came to NY from Mass where he then met the Gertrude Lefler. Any help to fill in or extend our search would be very much appreciated? Bob Lefler

Herbert was a S Srg in WWII and died in 2001, Lucy was 22 on the 1930 Census and still single.Joseph died in 1955 but may have had a family? etc. What I want to know is did any of them marry and have children or is the line dead???

I'm looking for information about a Bertha Francis (Suda) Braman. All I know so far is that she was born in New York, a daughter of John W. Suda and Marie B. Cadek (both from Czechoslovakia)

Bertha had a brother also named John, and a sister named Jennie (or sometimes listed as Johanna). She was first married to Karl (aka Charles) Kacena and they had a daughter named Diana.

After Karl Kacena died, I'm told she moved to Florida and remarried (maybe not in that order).

I would like to reconnect with this lost branch or my family line and would appreciate any infomation anyone can share.

Your research may take you to Germany but not with Jesse Braman and Martha. Unless everybody with Braman, New England roots from the 1630s on is off course. Might read postings starting with the beginning of the Braman surname board and best of luck where ever you find your ancestors.
