Other Events:

• Baptism: 18 Sep 1848, Holstein, Warren County, Missouri, USA

Notes:

Birth:
In the published baptismal records of the German Evangelical Immanuels Church in Holstein, Missouri (known since 1957 as Immanuels United Church of Christ), Heinrich Hermann's birth date was recorded as 14 August 1848.
     The church records indicate that of the six children born to Johann Heinrich Wilhelm Bierbaum and Anna Christine Elsabein Fiegenbaum, there were two sons, one named Hermann Heinrich and the other named Heinrich Hermann. As seems to have been common with many members of the Fiegenbaum and associated families who had ties to northwestern Germany, the order of their given names was quite fluid over the course of their lives through the 19th and early 20th centuries. A Hermann Heinrich who was also known in the records as Heinrich Herman can cause some problems. If you add brother who uses the same given names in the same mixed order, a genealogical researcher quickly becomes very flustered. I have done my best to reduce the confusion, but a full resolution awaits more scrupulous research. In the meantime, don't bet the farm on what you read here.

Baptism:
Heinrich's baptism is recorded in the archives of the German Evangelical Church on Charrette in Holstein, Missouri (known since 1957 as Immanuels United Church of Christ). According to the published church records, Herman [sic] Fiegenbaum was his sponsor.

Birth:

     Johann's family was living in Overbeck at the time of his birth. Overbeck was one of the three 'Bauernshaften' in the village of Ladbergen.
     A 'Bauerschaft' is an ancient grouping of farms that emerged from the earliest agricultural settlements, and comprised the earliest administrative units of a community. Until the early 1960s, Ladbergen had three Bauernshaften: Hölter, Overbeck and Wester. These settlement areas are still recognized in present day Ladbergen. Recently, the residential sections of the village center have become known by street names and a fourth section of Ladbergen, called 'Dorf' [village] has been created.
     During the Napoleonic era, from about 1808 to 1810, Ladbergen, as part of the County of Tecklenburg (Grafschaft Tecklenburg), came under the sovereignty of the Grand Duchy of Berg (French: Grand-duché de Berg; German: Großherzogtum Berg), a client state of the First French Empire.
     In 1811 borders were redrawn again and Grafschaft Tecklenburg was incorporated directly into the First French Empire as part of the Département Ems-Supérieur (German: Departement der Oberen Ems).
     After Napoleon's defeat, Ladbergen found itself part of the Province of Westphalia in the Kingdom of Prussia (German: Provinz Westfalen, Königreich Preußen).

Immigration:

     Johann (about age 29), his wife, Anna Christine Elsabein Fiegenbaum (about age 26), and their only child at the time, Heinrich Wilhelm Bierbaum (less than 1 year old), emigrated from Ladbergen, Province of Westphalia, the Kingdom of Prussia. Accompanying them was Johann's sister, Catharina Sophia Wilhelmine Bierbaum.
     This family group was joined by his wife's married sister, her husband and their three children, and also by his wife's parents and their two unmarried children.
     In all, at least 13 members of this extended family left Ladbergen together in 1841. They departed Germany from the port of Bremen on the bark Leontine. Of the 102 persons on board, 56 were identified on the passenger list as former residents of Ladbergen. Four other persons were from the nearby towns of Brochterbeck and Lengerich. The Leontine arrived at Baltimore, Maryland on 28 June 1841.
     The Fiegenbaums, Aufderhaars and Bierbaums traveled further west until reaching and settling in Warren County, Missouri.
