• Notes

  Silas Baumann, "second son of Martin H. and Rebecca Baumann, was born August 27th, 1861. He is married to Lydia Ann, daughter of Abraham and Mary (Eby) Groff. They own a farm a little north of Floradale, in the township of Woolwich. Their family consists of six children" Eby, Ezra E. (1895). A biographical history of Waterloo township and other townships of the county: being a history of the early settlers and their descendants, mostly all of Pennsylvania Dutch origin: as also much other unpublished historical information chiefly of a local character. Berlin [Kitchener, Ont.]: [s.n.]. ________________________________ BAUMAN. - Silas Bauman was born in Waterloo Twp., Waterloo, Co., Ont., Aug. 27, 1861; died Jan. 21, 1913; aged 51y. 4m. 25d. He was married to Lydia Ann Groff in 1886. To this union were born 9 sons and 4 daughters. Two of the oldest sons preceded him to the world beyond. He leaves a sorrowing widow, 11 children all at home, an aged father, 6 brothers, 1 sister, and a large community of neighbors and friends. He was converted in his early years and joined the Mennonite Church and remained a faithful member. He was ordained to the office of deacon 16 years ago and performed his duties faithfully. He was ailing for a few months and by examination of the doctors it was found that a growth in the stomach was the cause. The doctor told him his case was serious. He was consecrated to the Lord and set his possessions in order and waited patiently for the end. He was in sound mind within three hours of death. He chose his text, I Pet. 1. He also appointed A.B. Gingerich to preach in German and O.D. Snider in English. Funeral Jan. 24 was largely attended and long to be remembered. Buried in the cemetery adjoining his home. The beyond was more precious to him as he drew nigh. He expressed himself, "Death shall not destroy my comfort, Christ shall guide me through the gloom."
