           Calculating from the child's date of birth and the age of the mother, Wilhemina [sic] (Mensenkamp) Bierbaum would have been born about 1848-1849.
           A similar calculation for the father would suggest a date of birth about 1847-1848. However, this date is not supported by the baptism register of the German Evangelical Immanuels Church on Charrette, at Holstein, Missouri (known since 1957 as Immanuels United Church of Christ). According to the published records of this source, Hermann Heinrich Bierbaum was born on 30 April 1843.
