Ulrich Eymann came to the new world in 1764 and died one or 2 years after he got here. His wife, Maria Fuchs could not read or write so the Iman name was misspelled. Christian took the Name of Eyman and Johannes took Iman. I have some more that I have put together, but right now is in the "building" process. On down the line the Eymans married into the Eakin line twice , which is my line. The Eyman Children were my cousins. This name in Germany was spelled Eymann/Eyman so That was the Beginning. They all came originally from Bern Switzerland. Ann
