ABRAHAM BRUMBACH (BRUMBAUGH)
Abraham's Lineage

Hermanus Emanuel Brumbach 1751 - 1803
***Abraham Brumbaugh (Brumbach) 1879 - 1872

Abraham was born in Berks Co., Pa., Aug. 2, 1789 and died Jan 23., 1872. He married Elizabeth Albright who was born Oct. 6, 1787 and died April 6, 1875.

For years he worked in the woolen factory on Schwartz creek, removed to Franklin Co., Pa., near Chambersburg; next lived at Honey Creek, Henry Co., Ind., where both he and his wife died.

He was a Whig and a Protestant. Early in life he changed the spelling of his name from the German "Brumbach" to Brumbaugh, and his descendants thus spell the name. Brumbach retained by all other lines amongst the descendants of Hermanus Emanuel, except that Matthias, a brother of Abraham, and Daniel Gumbert, and the latter's descendants, spell the name Brumback -- all changes, probably made because of local conditions.

Abraham and Elizabeth had 6 children:

1. Sallie, born July 18, 1815; married Jacob Wiland.

2. Solomon Albright, born Jan 3, 1818; married Lydia Ann Neal.
