Notes - There is a difference of opinion as to Marie's last name. A granddaughter believes her name was Meier. She bases this on the fact that she had an uncle named Meier, who she always thought was her mother's brother. I have not been able to find a record of the marriage of Marie Meier to Frederick Hoffman and do find one of Maria Volkmann to F. W. Hoffman in St. Paul's Ev. Church records in Nashville, Illinois, with dates corresponding to what we believe to be the approximate date of their marriage and other dates seeming to be correct. I am inclined to believe the uncle could have been a brother-in-law or the mother could have been married twice. St. Paul's records show the marriage on August 11, 1865 of F. W. Hoffman to Maria Volkmann. They also show the death of Maria Hoffman (nee Volkmann) on February 5, 1870. These records also provide the following information - child of Fr. Wilhelm and Mary Hoffman died Feb. 17, 1870 (Relatives confirm that there were 2 children born to this union one of whom died in infancy). We have the date of the birth of George as Jan. 10, 1867, together with the fact that he was three when his mother died and the date of F. W.'s second marriage to Caroline Wiese on April 23, 1891. All these dates seem to indicate tome that her maiden name was Volkmann. Frederick and Marie were the parents of two children - one died in infancy - George lived to grow up.
