geri, my direct ancestor was lt bernhard bauman. my gr aunt belonged to the dar, using another rev war ancestor, dr adam simon kuhn of lancaster co. he was supposed to have been a member of the committee of safety. somewhere i have tapped into a listing that showed lt and capt baumans of northampton co, but not who was the commander, or any other reference. i guess what i am looking for is what battles they were in besides brandywine, etc. again, thank you bill bowman n a message dated 9/12/2006 10:28:47 AM Eastern Daylight Time, [email protected] writes: hi bill, i just noticed that heitman's may be proof for the dar. can you get your hands on a copy and check that.
