Research Notes (Conflicts/Spelling/Followup)

CONFLICTS

Birth Date: This database uses 17 Jun 1859. A passenger list for her trip to the US gives an age of (8), which, when applied to the record date of 16 Apr 1872, gives a birth date range from 17 Apr 1863 to 16 Apr 1864. This is a significant difference of 4 to 5 years, beyond one that is usually found in records. [borders-list-newyork-ny-ss-bremen-p8-16apr1872]

Birth Date: This database uses 27 Jun 1859. The 1910 US Census gives an age of (51), which, when applied to the official census date of 15 Apr 1910 gives a birth date range from 16 Apr 1858 to 15 Apr 1859. [census-us-1910-ps-sd-davison-135-6b]

Birth Date: This database uses Jun 1859. The 1920 U.S. Census gives an age of (61), which, when applied to the offical census date of 1 Jan 1920, gives a birth date range from 2 Jan 1858 to 1 Jan 1859. (This conflict goes away if this page's enumeration date of 24 July 1920 was incorrectly used instead of the official census date.) [census-us-1920-ps-sd-jackson-96-3a]

Birth Location: This database uses Kinereich Bayern (Kingdom of Bavaria). The 1900 US Census, 1910 US Census, and 1920 US Census uses Germany, which didn't exist on her birth date. [census-us-1900-ps-sd-davison-114-8a, census-us-1910-ps-sd-davison-135-6b, census-us-1920-ps-sd-jackson-96-3a]

SPELLING

Given Name: This database uses Theresia. Her birth index entry uses, and the 1920 U.S. Census appears to use, Thresia. [birth-npri-george-schoenfelder-1884, census-us-1920-ps-sd-jackson-96-3a]

Given Name: This database uses Theresia. A passenger list for her trip to the US uses the spelling Therese. [borders-list-newyork-ny-ss-bremen-p8-16apr1872]

Given Name: This database uses Theresia. Son John Schoenfelder's certificate of death uses the spelling Theresa. [death-john-schoenfelder-1967]

Given Name: This database uses Theresia. Son Joseph Albert Schoenfelder's birth index entry uses the spelling Therasia. [birth-npri-joseph-schoenfelder-1899]

FOLLOWUP

She may have been born in München.

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.

John and Theresia may have married in Mitchell, South Dakota.
