The Peter Witmer you have, b. 1710, is the father of John (b. 1758) and the grandfather of a Peter, b. ca. 1757. I'm trying to find out if the second Peter is the one who is buried in West Greentree Brethren Cemetery. Most records I've seen indicate that the elder Peter Witmer had three wives. I am not aware of a wife named Baumann. You can write me off-line if you'd like to discuss.
