With the exception of listing surnames which connect to this tree, particularly on the FAUSCH side where other researchers may have been having trouble cracking this line (or may have already broken through to the other side), minimal information about any generations after 1900 will be published here. (although I am not against hearing of your line if it connects. My e-mail address is tweek@io.com)

Fridericus Zimmermann and Adamus Sieben Two baptism entries of interest on this scanned image. Fridericus Zimmermann is the brother of Margarethae Zimmermann. Adamus Sieben is a son of Michael Sieben and Catherine Darmstadt. (1808) Joannes Adamus Knussmann appears in Adamus' entry.
Eva Sieben Born on Oct 9, 1803 to Michael Sieben and Catherine Darmstadt. Eva Knussmann was the witness.
Katharina Darmstadt nata Sieben Born 24 Nov 1772 to Philip Sieben and Catherine Eckert, Katharina, the widow Darmstadt died on Aug 26, 1847 at the age of 75.
Joannes Darmstadt died on Dec 7, 1840 at the age of 72. Three days later, Eva nata Darmstadt, widow of Henrici Knussmann died at the age of 75. This page scan appears to also have the priest's notes for the year 1840.
Francis Philipp Sieben/Anna Maria Schmitt were
married on the 20th of May, 1726. No idea if they are related
to the Sieben line of interest. This couple is not direct ancestors of the Sieben line which is the subject of this project.
The only reason for investigating these Battrow records is the hope that they may point to where this family came from, and the hope that the other FAUSCHes can be found nearby. The records are in German Script.
| UPDATE: While no relation has been found between the two Fausch families of Michigan City, the family which connects to the Sieben family comes from Petzewo (aka Piecewo, POL) which is a few miles from the Battrow of this second Fausch family. |

With the "suddenly-appearing weakness" of Henrietta Wilhelmine, it doesn't rule this family out as being the same family as the "421 Fausches". When I first found this thread, I already knew that in order for this to be the same family, the Henrietta born in 1854 would have to have died and a second Henrietta born to the family. The other inconsistancy could very well be that the census taker simply screwed up on August's birthplace.
