Just ran across your message today. We may be connected. My great-grandfather Tobias Gassmann came from Plawno in the Russian Empire and his wife Dora Schacher settled briefly in New York in 1872, but were in Chicago by the time of the 1880 census.

Although his older sister Yetta IMrs. Gabrield Radbel) was born in New York, my grandfather Isaac Gassman (note that he dropped the second "n") was born in Plawno during a family visit. He always referred to himself as having been born in Germany.

Tobias ran a furniture store in Chicago for many years. I believe it was in south Chicago. My grandfather's younger sister Rosie was a piano teacher in Chicago until she married an actor, Sam Klein, who was in vaudeville. I've never been able to trace them.

The Radbels remained in Chicago, but my grandfather moved his family to Detroit. Later these Gassmans moved to San Antonio, Texas.

Is any of this ringing a bell with you? I;ve been able to find out quite a bit about Tobias' lineage, but absolutely nothing about his wife.

Re: our gassman tree

jorokeller — 2009-07-01 17:22:11Z

I am looking for Maryland Gassmans. One, William D., operated a rope manufacturing business in Hagerstown in the late 1800s. Apparently he made the rope that was used to hang John Brown, at Charles Town, (then Virginia) in 1859. This according to a Hagerstown newspaper. I am going to Charles Town in July to look for the sheriff's requisition which the paper said was made of Mr. Gassman.
Thanks.

I have some information on the gassman line that came into america @ 182 from Baden Germany and would like to share.

Gassman in Michigan

2003-07-01 04:32:33Z

My great-greatgrandfather was George Gassman of St. Clair County MI. He is listed on the 1894 census as age 60, born in Germany, parents born in Germany, and a farmer. His wife Margaret (Zobl) is 49 and born in Germany. The children at home include my great grandmother Mary, who married Gregory Krantz in 1896, Peter, age 17; Victoria, 15, and Thresia, 14. They also had three children who died of diptheria in 1893. I cannot find any other information on the Gassman family and hope someone will also be related to this line.
Another George Gassman is listed on the 1870 MI census as living in Detroit, age 41, a merchant and tailor, with a wife, Louise. No relation that I know of.

Re: Gassman(n) - Oregon

shasta3764 — 2002-11-13 06:23:36Z

The father was Joseph Gassman(n) who emigrated from Germany in 1885 at the age of 21. He married Arminda Hibert (or Hibbard) who was born in Kansas. They had 2 children, Velma Arminda and Josephine E born in Oregon. They were living in Baker City, Oregon in 1900 (according to the 1900 census). That's about all I know.

Re: Gassman in MI

2003-11-23 23:54:23Z

Hi Morgan, This must be another Gassmann family as only one son survived the diptheria epidemic in 1893 and that was Peter, born 1877. It is unknown who he married but his children were Stanley, George and Margaret. Census records show he immigrated to America in the 1870s. Whether he was accompanied by brothers or other relatives is not known as they did not settle in the same area. Thanks. Linda

She married Yost Yost, from Nottwil Switzerland, in 1854 in Rochester NY. By 1857, they were living in Minnesota where the first of nine children were born. Any connections out there . . . let's share information!

She was recently at a yard sale and bought a box of family photos and papers, will send to interested party for cost of shipping, which she estimates at $8 or so. Paperwork includes naval discharge certificate for a Robert John Gasman dated 1946. Also a funeral registry for a Carl Gasman; location on that paperwork is Madison, Wisconsin. Apparently other photos and papers were in the box. She is a family tree hunter herself, and knows someone may be interested in having this material. Write her at the email address above.

Gassman: Germany to Stephenson county Illinois

pahuga5 — 2005-10-08 12:39:34Z

I have a new website at:

http://pamgarrett.com

It includes a report on the Gassman family. The name sometimes appears as Gossman and Gassmann. Fred Gassman came with his Rosenstiel inlaws to America from Germany just after 1840. He settled in Stephenson county Illinois. He was first married to Mary Rosenstiel and secondly to Minnie Henke (Hanke, Hienke). He had ten children.

Some of their marriages include: Charles Gassman and Mary Leseman, Louisa Gassman and Edward Brueckner (Brickner), Nina Gassman and William Biesemeier, John Gassman and Anna Becker, Matilda Gassman and Gus Klaas, Edward Gassman and Pauline Polker, Anne Gassman and Charles Leseman, Emilie Gassman and Eugene Schmidt. The report follows many of their descendants and related families.

The site also includes photographs and general information on German families coming to America. I would welcome your visit and enjoy hearing about your connections.
