Research Notes (Conflicts/Spelling/Followup)
CONFLICTS
Birth Date: This database uses 30 Oct 1868. A passenger list for his trip to the US gives an age of (4), which, when applied to the record date of 16 Apr 1872, gives a birth date range from 17 Apr 1867 to 16 Apr 1868. [borders-list-newyork-ny-ss-bremen-p8-16apr1872]
Birth Country: This database uses Kinereich Bayern (Kingdom of Bavaria). His cemetery plot card identifies it as Germany. Although Germany existed when he died, it didn't when he was born. [misc-cemetery-card-alois-bauer-1942]
FOLLOWUP
The passenger list of the SS Bremem, arriving in the Port of New York in Apr 1872, includes the Joseph and Anna Bauer family. The list includes the (probable) children Therese[Theresia], Anton, Josef, Alois, and Johann. These are the known children who were born in Bayern (and adds two that were not recorded in the 1880 US Census, covering the long gap between Theresia and Alois). However, although most ages are only a year off (a common issue), the differences in the ages of Joseph (about 2 years) and Theresia (about 4 years) are concerning. [borders-list-newyork-ny-ss-bremen-p8-16apr1872]
The family may have lived in Buffalo, NY after immigrating to the United States, moving to Plain, Frankliin Town, Sauk County WI, USA in 1874.
See the father (Joseph Bauer) for information relating to the 1885 and 1895 Wisconsin state census.
He may be found in the 1905 Wisconsin state census with his wife Anna, and children Joseph, Katherine, and Walker. His mother-in-law Margaret[?] Schwarke[?] was living with them. (Wisconsin, U.S., State Census, 1855-1905, Ancestry database, path "1905 ⟩ Sauk ⟩ Franklin", image 5, left page, lines 33-38)
He may have moved to Mitchell, SD about 1935. His cemetery card (in handwritten notation, probably after the typewritten card was created) includes the comment "7 yrs Mitchell". [misc-cemetery-card-alois-bauer-1942]
