Birth: Dec. 6, 1803

Death: Feb. 28, 1882
Monroe County

Note: The gravestone is Rachel's, Joseph was still living in 1870 and possibly in 1880, although the later census appearance raises questions because it lists him as divorced and his father from South Carolina. Some sources say he died in 1889. I'm sure he's buried near Rachel, but the -condition of her headstone makes the possible loss of any marker for Joseph no surprise.

Johannes Wagaman, or "John" as he was usually known, was born in Pennsylvania during the Revolutionary War. He was the son of a shoemaker, William Wagemann, Sr., and his first wife. William, referred to by later generations as William the Pioneer, was born in 1753. John's father was married 3 times over the years.

John's mom was the mother of 8 children when she died in the mid to late 1790's. John's siblings were Margaret, Christian, Michael, Elizabeth, Jacob, Mary and Susannah.

After the death of John's mother, his father married Sarah "Sally" (unknown surname) around 1801 in Somerset County, Pennsylvania. William, Sr. and Sally had 3 children--William, Jr., Henry and Sarah--who were John's half-brothers and half-sister.

Sometime between 1796 and 1802, John joined family and friends who left Pennsylvania to head west on rafts and flatboats they floated down the Ohio River. He made his way to Jessamine (Old Fayette) County, Kentucky, where the name "Johannes Wagemann" appeared on records as having paid taxes on a horse in 1802.

That same year, John married Barbara "Barbry" Houser on 29 Mar 1802 in Jessamine County when he was about 21-years-old. Her father, Abraham Houser, a Minister of the Gospel, performed the ceremony.

John and Barbry were the parents of 14 children, all born in Jessamine County. After 19 years of marriage, the Wagamans acquired 92 acres of land on Jessamine Creek from Barbry's dad, Abraham.

John's father, William, was widowed for a second time in 1819. He then moved to Montgomery County, Ohio, where he married his third wife, Barbara Rineberger, on 21 Nov 1826.

One of John and Barbry's daughters, Anna, left Kentucky and married her husband, Emanuel Hoover, in 1826 in Clermont County, Ohio. In 1830, 2 of John and Barbry's sons, Abraham and Solomon Wagaman, also left Jessamine County and resettled in Monroe County, Indiana. John and Barbry, along with most of their other children, followed them to Clear Creek Township in Monroe County in 1833.

John and Barbry bought 80 acres of land in Clear Creek on 13 Dec 1833. They purchased more land there, and in Perry Township, from 1836 to 1843 bringing their total to 280 acres.

John's father, William, died in Elkhart County, Indiana in 1836.

One of John and Barbry's daughters, Alice Ann, married Abraham Franklin on 11 Feb 1847. He died soon after their marriage, and Alice returned to her parents' home by 1850. A young girl, Caroline Franklin, also lived with the family at that time; she may have been Alice's daughter or step-daughter. No more information is known about Alice.

Eventually, several of the John and Barbry's children decided to move again and leave Indiana. Abraham, Solomon, David, Martha and John Wagaman headed west and settled in the northwestern part of Missouri.

At the time of his 1852 death, John was about 71-years-old. The specific location of his burial in Monroe County, Indiana is unknown.

Barbry joined the Wagaman children in Carroll County, Missouri after her husband passed away. She died there in 1859.

John married HOUSER, Barbara on 29 Mar 1802 in Jessamine County, KY. Barbara (daughter of HOUSER, Abraham and ROHRER, Nancy Ann) was born on 14 Nov 1785 in Hagerstown, Washington County, MD; died on 14 Sep 1859 in Carroll County, MO. [Group Sheet] [Family Chart]
