Notes |
- Rev. Jacob Hallman, "the eldest in the family, was born November 18th, 1803. In 1822 he, in company with Mr. Lutz, walked to Canada and made Waterloo County, Ontario, his home for about two years, then he returned to his native state where he remained until the following spring when he and his father and family moved to Canada. Some time after his arrival he was married to Eva, daughter of Christian and Polly (Ruth) Strome (Then spelled Strohm). She was born September 9th, 1805, and died July 11th, 1886. Soon after their marriage they moved on their farm in Wilmot Township, about two and one-half miles north of New Dundee where they resided until their deaths. In 1837 he was called to the ministry of the Mennonite Church which body he served faithfully for over forty years. His sermons were always plain, practical, and accompanied with a strong appeal to the younger members of the congregation to live up to the teachings of the Scriptures. His great and only desire was that he might pass the rest of his days in the humble yet honorable service in the ministry of the Lord, to which he was so sincerely attached. He died March 23rd, 1878. His family consisted of six children"
Eby, Ezra E. (1895).

___________________
HALLMAN.-March 23rd, in Waterloo Co., Ont., of dropsy, Pre. JACOB HALLMAN, aged 74 years, 5 months and 4 days. He served as minister 42 years. He was much beloved by his neighbors, his fellow-ministers, and the whole church. He had peace with God, the church and his fellow man. He was firmly grounded on the Rock and Chief Corner-stone, Jesus Christ. His walk and conversation were what he preached, humility. He bore his sufferings with patience, and leaves a sorrowing widow and three married children to mourn their loss. The entire church and his fellow-ministers also feel that they have sustained a severe loss, but they feel confident too, that their loss is his eternal gain. He was buried on the 25th at Blenheim burying-ground, where a large number of people were present. As he himself had requested, Bro. Amos S. Cressman preached at the house and Moses Bauman and George Schmidt at the meeting-house, from the text which he himself had selected, 2 Tim. 4:6-8. The hymn sung was also his own selection from the Skippack Hymn Book, Page 273,
