    Notes:

    Menno Bowman, "the second son of Samuel W. Baumann, was born in Waterloo, May 20th, 1837. Early in spring of 1858 he was married to Susan, daughter of Jacob and Magdalena (Baumann) Schneider. She was born December 2nd, 1838. After their marriage he purchased the old Jacob Schneider homestead at Bloomingdale, where he resided until 1878, when he rented his farm to Mr. Franklin Brubacher. In 1875 he entered the ministry of the New Mennonite church, being ordained in the year 1879. As a minister of the Gospel he was successful in winning many souls to Christ. He had charge of the following circuits in succession: Bethel, Twenty, Markham, and Maryborough, on which circuits he did good work, not withstanding the enemies he would have on account of his radical preaching and dealing with the people. He was very outspoken and dealt straight with his people without respect to person, and on account of this some were not always pleased with him. His sermons as a rule were powerful and stirring and consequently would deal very plainly with such who would settle down into a mere form of religion. It is only justice, however, to Mr. Bowman to say that wherever people would get into a good christian experience they would get along well with him. At the annual conference of Canada in 1886, he was appointed Presiding Elder, which position he has held ever since in a very successful manner. His district for the first years of his Presiding Eldership was the entire Canada Conference, including a few appointments in Michigan. In 1891 the conference was divided into two districts, from which time he travelled and spent much time in the state of Michigan. At present they reside on their farm again where his two sons, Emerson and Lloyd, are managing and working the same. Their family consisted of eleven children"
