    George Auman1 (M)
    b. 1852
    Pop-up Pedigree

         George Auman, son of Jonathan Auman and Susanna Shonk, was born in 1852 in Ohio.2

    George was listed on 10 July 1860 as a household member living with Jonathan Auman on the 1860 US Federal Census of Tuscarawas County (Sugar Creek Township), Ohio, enumerated 10 July 1860. Joseph (properly Jonathan) was the husband of Susannah and father to Sarah, Martha, Henry, George, and Elizabeth.. They lived at dwelling number 653. (The census taker got the head of household's given name wrong--the "Joseph" should be "Jonathan".) Also, there appear to be three other people living on the farm: a 43-year-old man named Charles Wade (who had real estate valued at $4500 and personal wealth of $1200), a 2-yr-old female named Mary A?, and an 18-yr-old male named Frederick Hoeffer, who was listed as a laborer. The value of the farm's real estate was noted as $4000 and the value of Jonathan's (aka Joseph) personal property at $800.2,3 He is listed as having attended school within the year.2

    Jonathan Auman1 (M)
    b. 8 February 1820, d. 5 March 1890
    Pop-up Pedigree

    Jonathan Auman
    From A Four Family History by Doyle & Mary Shonk
         Jonathan Auman, son of George Auman and Elizabeth Harris, was born on 8 February 1820 in Mifflin, Pennsylvania.2,3

    Jonathan Auman came to Tuscarawas County in 1834.

    He was a well-known farmer in the Dover area, his first farm being an eighty-acre spread next to the Shonk farm in Sugar Creek Township. "He sold this farm to Jacob Shonk [his father-in-law] in 1850 and then moved to a large farm in Dover Township on the Dover-Winfield road where [he and his wife Susanna] resided the rest of their lives."4,5

    In 1842, Jonathan Auman married Susanna Shonk, daughter of Jacob Shonk and Martha Magdalena France, in Tuscarawas County, Ohio.2

    Jonathan Auman was working as a carpenter in 1850.6

    Jonathan appeared in the 1850 US Federal Census of Tuscarawas County (Sugar Creek Township), Ohio, enumerated 3 December 1850. He was recorded as the head of a household that also included Susanna, Sarah, Martha and Henry. Susanna was his wife, and the other three his children.. They lived at dwelling number 139. Enumerated as living nearby was George Auman, his father, along with Peter and Leah Auman, who were probably his brother and sister; they lived next door.. Also living in the household was a 16-year-old laborer named Daniel Harris. The value of the real estate owned by Jonathan was listed as $2000.6

    Jonathan Auman was a farmer.7,8

    Jonathan appeared in the 1860 US Federal Census of Tuscarawas County (Sugar Creek Township), Ohio, enumerated 10 July 1860. He was recorded as the head of a household that also included Susannah, Sarah, Martha, Henry, George and Elizabeth. Susannah is Joseph's wife and the other five members of the household are his children.. They lived at dwelling number 653. Enumerated as living nearby was Peter Caroll, in the household of his parents John and Elisabeth. In five years' time, Peter would marry Jonathan's daughter Sarah.. (The census taker got the head of household's given name wrong--the "Joseph" should be "Jonathan".) Also, there appear to be three other people living on the farm: a 43-year-old man named Charles Wade (who had real estate valued at $4500 and personal wealth of $1200), a 2-yr-old female named Mary A?, and an 18-yr-old male named Frederick Hoeffer, who was listed as a laborer. The value of the farm's real estate was noted as $4000 and the value of Jonathan's (aka Joseph) personal property at $800.8,9

    On 3 January 1872 Jonathan Auman (along with John J. Karl, Jacob Karl, Valentin Karl and Elisabeth) received part of Johann Georg Ludwig Karl's estate. The handwritten document from Peter is very difficult to decipher with great accuracy, but it appears that Johann's widow Elisabeth received $573.06, his son John Karl perhaps as much as $175, his son Valentine about $200, and his son Jacob nearly $8. Peter paid himself $47.68 as "Commission to Administrator". Jonathan Auman, the father-in-law of Johann's son Peter, received $42. The money seems to have come mostly from the sale of land, although which plot of land in particular is not known at this time.10

    Jonathan appeared in the 1880 US Federal Census of Tuscarawas County (Dover Township), Ohio, enumerated 1 June 1880. He was recorded as the head of a household that also included his wife, Susan, his daughter Rebecca. They lived at an area populated by farmers and laborers. Enumerated as living nearby was Peter Karl, husband of their daughter Sarah. Their son Henry and his family also lived in the same area..7

    Jonathan Auman died on 5 March 1890 in Dover, Ohio, at age 70.3

    Jonathan Auman was buried in Dover, Maple Grove Cemetery.3
