Hi: Don't know how much help this will be but this is what I copied from the Howerter's Church records. Johann Jacob Miniam b: 17 August 1783 baptized: 24 August 1783 sponsors: Peter Hedrich & Hanna Schaffer Maria Catharina Miniam b:21 April 1787 baptized: 13 May 1787 sponsors:Hans George & Catherine Brosius female child Miniam ?? b: 28 January 1789 baptized 14 June 1789 sposors:Leonard Herstetter & wife Susanna (Schaffer) Anna Maria Miniam b:25 July 1791 baptized:10th Sunday after Trinity (19 June & 10 weeks) sponsors: Johann Nicholaus Schneider & wife Anna Maria (Bordner) Magdalena Miniam b:11 November 1798 baptized:25 November 1798 sponsors: Phillip Diehl & wife Magdalena Appolonia Miniam b:20 March 1790???(questioned because of order in records and date of baptism compared to other children) baptized:20 March 1796 sponsors:Michael Shaffer & wife Appolonia All the above were born to Henrich Miniam and (Maria) Catharina Schaffer. All baptisms took place at the Howerter's Church. The records were obtained online I believe through usgenweb.com or at rootsweb. Hope this helps in some small way. Kathleen Lobb Hamilton
