Wassmann was baptized and attended German Lutheran parochial school while a boy in Indiana, and was confirmed there. He attended high[?] school at Brunswick, Indiana. At the age of eighteen he moved to Iroquois County, Illinois, and in 1881 he moved to St. Louis, Missouri. From there he went to Jerseyville, Illinois, where he married his wife Josephine Newberry. At least one of their children were born there. It was hard to determine exactly where all the children were born, as the family moved around a lot, and each set of relatives seemed to have a different birthplace for their own parent. I did the best I could with the information I could gather from obituaries and from relatives' information. Anyway, from there it is thought they moved to Iowa, where they lived until 1904. Then they moved to Dell Rapids, South Dakota. From there they moved to North Dakota, settling in Garner Township, Golden Valley County, a few miles east of the village of Golva, North Dakota. They purchased a farm there, where they lived out their remaining years. Grandfather Henry C. owned and operated a steam threshing rig and did most of the threshing in the area, until failing health in his last years put a stop to active work. He was also a Township Supervisor for Garner Township. He died at his farm home of a severe case of "dropsy" on June 18th, 1932. He was buried from the Methodist Church at Beach, North Dakota, and laid to rest in the city cemetery at Beach. His wife Josephine continued to live on the farm with her son Bill (who was now divorced from his wife). Josephine passed away at her farm home also, during Easter week in April, 1934. She had suffered from diabetes for many years; this, along with severe burns she suffered on her entire body, caused her death. Her clothing caught fire while doing the cooking in her home; she lived one week after. She is buried in the Beach Cemetery beside her husband. She was also buried from the Methodist Church. "Grandma" Wassmann, as she was affectionately called by all who knew her, was greatly missed by everyone. Her six sons were her pall bearers. Henry and Josephine have the following list of descendants as of 1994: Ten children; twenty-nine grandchildren; eighty-three great grandchildren; one hundred four great-great-grandchildren, and seven great-great-great-grandchildren. All (?) eight of Henry's children were married, and they all had families except for Harry. All of the grandchildren married except for four, two of which died at birth. All had families except for Leslie, Dorothy, Alvin, James and Dale. Thirty-five great-grandchildren are married, and six great-great-grandchildren are married. The majority of them have families also. There is also a possibility that there may be more great-great-great-grandchildren that I have no knowledge of at this time. Their descendants are now scattered all over the United States doing all types of occupations.
