Franz Xavier Brungardt

Born In Herzog, Russia, the son of Andreas Brungardt (1769-1820) and Anna Maria Doppler (1771 - bef. 1834).

Immigrated to the US on the SS Mosel, arriving New York, NY on July 29, 1876.

Franz and Anna Maria Brungardt had one son, Johannes Balthasar Brungardt (1837- ), who remained in Russia and married Marianna Goetz (1837- ) in about 1856. They are listed as Johannes Brungardt and Anna Maria Goetz in the 1857 Herzog census.

Die Herzoger lists Marianna Goetz as the daughter of Michael and Katherine Goetz and thus a sister to Martin (FG# 157143384), Johannes (FG# 142425298), and Peter (FG# 20757318) Goetz. However, there is no evidence in the Herzog 1850 census for Marianna or Anna Maria, in the Michael and Katherine Goetz household. A more likely candidate for her parents are Johannes Goetz (1799-) and Anna Maria Bechler (1800-), who had a daughter Anna Maria, born 1837, in the 1850 Census but not in the household in the 1857 census.

In any event, Johannes and Marianna Goetz Brungardt had two sons who immigrated to the US and were known as the "Hannbal" Brungardts. They were John Peter (Aka John B.) Brungardt (FG# 79166791) and Johannes or John Brungardt (FG# 38627946).

John Peter Brungardt came to the US in 1876, according to several census and appears to actually be on the SS Mosel listed as 17 year old in Franz Brungardt's household. The younger Johannes Brungardt marries Mary Rome in Russia in about 1889 and then immigrates to the US in 1890/1891.

Franz Brungardt died of a heart attack less than two weeks after arriving in America. St. Fidelis Cemetery did not exist in 1876 and he was probably first buried in the First Catholic Cemetery across the street. Anna Maria Riedel Brungardt was probably initially buried next to him. Most of the people buried there were the later disinterred and moved to St. Fidelis after 1900.

Die Herzoger lists his name as Franz B Brungardt but there is no source for the letter B as his middle initial. Neither the ship passenger list nor the parish death register have this middle initial.

His Russian church baptism record gives his name (Latin) as: Franciscus Xavierus, parents Andreas Brungard and Anna Maria Dobler. Godparents Michael Rohm (probably Rome) and Walburga Weichl (probably Weigel)

There is a little bit of ambiguity as to his date of birth with the way the record is written. The record goes as follows:

Date of Birth, Date of Baptism, Name of baptized 1806 November 23, 23, was Preceding child

3 , 5, Franz Brungardt

1807 January 16, 16, was Succeeding child

I have assumed that the priest forgot to to record the month as December but it could be that he recorded some baptisms out of order. I have seen this in other church records.

His death date was changed from Aug. 15th 1876 which apparently came from the Brungardt Genealogy book published by Helen Linenberger Hall in 1968. Die Herzoger lists Aug. 25th 1876 which is consistent with the death register. He was the first person listed in the death register.
