  General Notes:

The Neumann family arrived in America on 29 Sep 1883, at Galveston Texas. They came from Fromsdorf, Germany, on the ship "Weser" from the port of Bremen, Germany. The ship left Bremen on 6 Sep 1883.

Annie was inconsistent in giving her age. Her grandson Wayne Wall speculated that she may have wanted to conceal the fact that she was a little older than her husband. She gave her birth date as Jun 1877 and age as 22 on the 1900 census, 30 on the 1910 census, 43 on the 1920 census, and 53 on the 1930 census.

Her birthplace was listed incorrectly as Texas on the 1900 census, but correctly as Germany on all the other census years. Her parents were born in Germany. Her native language was German but she spoke English.

By the time of the 1900 census, she had borne 1 child, still living. By the time of the 1910 census, she had borne 5 children, with all still living. On the 1920 census, she reported that she had immigrated to America in 1880 and was naturalized as a citizen. On the 1930 census, she gave the immigration year as 1883. (Ship passenger lists show that 1883 was correct.) At the time of the 1940 census, Annie was widowed and shown as head of household with sons, Edward, Oscar and Adolph still at home and farming the home place.

Annie was Catholic, but was known to attend the Spicewood Baptist Church. Rev. Frank Tulloch of Marble Falls officiated at her graveside services.
