The Genealogical Record of Reverend Hans Herr written in 1908 by Theodore W Herr, Genealogist, after much research has a list of the children of Rev. Hans Herr. Anna is not included. I wonder if Anna, wife of Wendel Bauman was actually the daughter of one of his brothers rather than Rev. Herr, which is claimed in the profile below. (J. Wile)
Wendel Santmann Bauman was born abt 1665 in Thun, Canton, Bern, Switzerland. He was the son of Hans Rudolf John Dandiker Bauman (1636-1690) and Anna Santmann Bauman (1635-1682). "WENDEL BAUMANN, the original settler of this family, came to Pennsylvania at a very early date. He was born in Switzerland about the year 1665. When about 17 years of age he, in company with his parents, moved to Holland, where, they had the promise of protection from the persecuting parties of Southern and Central Europe, by William, Prince of Orange, afterwards King William III of England.

Wendel married Ann Herr (1680-1735) in 1709 in Strasburg, Chester, Pennsylvania, USA. Ann was the daughter of Hans H Herr (1639-1725) and Elizabeth Mylin Kendig Herr (1639-1730). It was not until Sept. 29, 1709, that the Mennonites as a body in and around Germantown were granted the rights of naturalization, and thus given equal civil rights with their English neighbors.
Wendel and Ann Herr Bauman had the following 11 known children: Hans John, Jacob, Benjamin, Joseph, Magdalena, Christian, Barbara, Peter, Henrick, Anna and Elizabeth.
Wendel Baumann, as the name of this settler is properly written, when he took up his original tract of land, consisted of 530 acres, including the 6 per cent. for road allowance. **The tract forms part of the Present Village of Lampeter and consisted in 1886 of 3 farms and 8 town lots, etc. In 1717 he took up another piece of land of 300 acres plus 6 per cent. for road allowance, along Big Beaver Creek, about 3 miles southeast of his mansion farm. This second tract was divided into 2 farms which he sold in his lifetime to John and Casper Bauman. He sold, also in his lifetime, 250 acres of his mansion place, leaving at his decease 280 acres. http://www.horseshoe.cc/pennadutch/families/bowman/bowman.htm#bfh
Wendal Baumann died in April, 1735. Letters of Administration for his estate were granted by the Registrar of Wills to Benjamin Baumann, dated September 6, 1735; bond given in 300(pounds); his bail are Jacob Baumann Martin Bear. An inventory was filed of his real and personal estate. Administrator's account is found on file. A true and compared copy of original inventory, as the same is on file in the Registrar's Office (Lancaster County). "A Inventory made the 7th day of April, 1735, for the Plantation of Wendel Bauman, deceased, and of all other goods as followeth. His oldest known son, Christian (born August 13, 1724), was then only eleven years old. At a Mennonite conference of the entire Pennsylvania church, held in 1725, two of the five preachers present from Conestoga, as the Pequea settlement was then called, Martin Baer and Johannes Bauman, names that correspond respectively, with one of the bondsmen and one of the valuators of the estate. Ulrich Breckbiel, also is known to have been a preacher at that time.
Wendel was buried a little south of his old home in the Hans Tschantz graveyard, which is located south of Lampeter and about 8 miles southwest of the City of Lancaster, Pa. His grave has no tombstone. This dilapidated ancient burying ground, set aside by Preacher Tschantz from his farm releasing all personal claim thereto in 1740, was for the use of the neighbors. It lies between two Mennonite meeting houses called Willow Street (or Brick and Strasburg, where some of the descendants of the pioneers still worship. One of their ministers, Frank M. Herr, is a descendant of Hans Herr, the bishop of this settlement and after whom it is named. Some of the early settlers including Jacob Miller, Hans Mylin and the consort of Martin Mylin, are all interred here. The earliest grave with any record on its marker is L. G. 1741. http://www.horseshoe.cc/pennadutch/families/bowman/bowman.htm#bfh
