Generation: 4

  1. 14.  HOFFMANN CHRISTIAN FRIEDRICH WILHELM was born on 21 Oct 1821 in Rothenuffeln, Kreis Minden, Westfalen, Germany; dob may be Oct. 11 (son of HOFFMAN JOHANN FRIEDRICH WILHELM and ENGEL ANNE MARIA); died on 16 Aug 1899.

    Notes:

    William (the name he was called after he came to America) was born at Rothenufeln, Germany, and died in the New Minden area. His wife, the former Caroline Schrieber, whom he married in 1843, also was from Germany - Russbend, near Preusche (also spelled Preusz and Preuss) Minden. William and Caroline are buried in St. John's Cemetery, New Minden. They are buried side by side, instead of in a row in order of death, as was customary in this old cemetery. Their lot is also in a prominent spot near the center. Members of the family think this distinction was made because the land for the church and cemetery had been a gift of William's father. This would seem a logical conclusion.
    We assume William came to America in 1838 with his parents. At any rate he was married here in 1843 and became a charter member of St. John's in 1846.
    The William Hoffmans son, Johann C. H. (called Herman) was killed by lightning, when he was 17 years old. This was a real tragedy to the family, especially since he was the third son to die. Herman is said to have been driving a wagon, some distance from his home when lightning struck, but the horses made their way home without a driver.
