  • Notes 
    • She found help in the Amish community in one Johann Springer, who lived nearby. He assumed guardiandship for the minor children, and helped when she sold her property. In December 1852 she applied to emigrate to America. Barbara traveled to Morton, Illinois with her remaining children: 2 adults and 5 minor children, in the spring of 1853.
