From his FindAGrave profile:

John was born Feb 19, 1830 in Luxembourg to Nicolas Hoffman and Margaretha Welles. They emigrated to the U.S. arriving in New York Harbor on April 24, 1854 from Bremen, on the ship "Meta". His mother emigrated as well, although I do not yet know when, and she died presumably in Ozaukee County sometime after 1870. John's sister Magdalena Susan Hoffman (born 1822) married Nicolas Ludowese in 1849 in Ozaukee County, so perhaps Nicolas and Margaretha came over earlier than John did.

John married Ida Keitel in Holy Cross Catholic Church, Ozaukee County on March 28, 1867. John was a farmer, they lived in/near Fredonia, and had 8 known children: Theodore (died in 1871), Peter (also died in 1871), Henry (died presumably in California), Anna (married Unknown McCoy), Mary H. (married John Prom), a 2nd Peter (also died presumably in California), Margaretha, and Elizabeth Adeline (married Michael Delva). John died July 27, 1912 in Dacada, his wife having previously deceased him in 1906.
