List of all Abraham (any spelling) from Charles F. Kauffman book
“A Genealogy and History of the Kauffman-Coffman Families of North America 1584 to 1937”
There are SO MANY Abraham’s in the book that it has always felt overwhelming.
For several years I thought about making a list of every single one of them and then marking in some way whether or not I should research them further.
I procrastinate best by doing something I’d rather do than what I should do. The list below is the result of exactly that. I should have been doing something else!
This lists every Abraham, every Coffman — no matter what the spelling.
Be sure to check my Which Abraham Coffman page as well.
Some of the Symbols and Abbreviation utilized by Mr. Kauffman:
A — Andrew Kauffman line.
A1 — Andrew Kauffman’s 1st child, 2nd generation.
Ac — Andrew Kauffman’s 12th child, 2nd generation.
A222 — Andrew Kauffman’s 2nd child of 2nd child of 2nd child or 4th generation.
B — Isaac Kauffman line.
C — Michael Kauffman line.
D — Martin Kauffman line.
E — Michale Kauffman and Barbara Holderman line.
d.y. — died young
d.inf. — died in infancy
Every Abraham listed in A genealogy and history of the Kauffman-Coffman families of North America, 1584 to 1937 compiled by Charles Fahs Kauffman, 1940
| Page # | Book ID | Full statement where any spelling of Abraham & Coffman is used | Potential Research | |

His children were Andrew; David; Barbara, wife of John Gilliland; Mary, wife of Christian Weightman; Elizabeth, wife of Isaac Blosser; Benjamin; Nancy, wife of William Dunaway; John; Abraham; and Michael. | Yes | |
| 35 | A319 | Abraham Herr Coffman. Said to have returned to Fayette Co. Probably a visit. | Unknown | |
| 38 | A3241 | Abraham H. Kauffman (Nov. 4, 1808-Oct. 31, 1854) single. Mennonite. Letort, Pa. | No | |

His executors were Michale Martin and M. W. May whose place was taken by the widow after May’s decease. Record of but one child, but there were probably others. | No. He apparently died in PA, not KY. | |
| 62 | A3412 | Abraham Kauffman (Oct. 10, 1838-July 30, 1839(. | No | |
| 66 | A4 | Michael Kauffman ( – 1794) md. Catherine Immel. His will names his widow Gertraut. Possibly due to faulty spelling, it is Gertrude Immel instead of Catherine. …
Michael Kauffman’s will is recorded in Book F, page 267. He left seven sons to survive and allots his plantation to his sons Christian and Benjamin who are to receive a part of some bottom land in York Co., His son Jacob is not to get anything except a part of the York Co., tract since he has received his share. This bottomland was situated in Chanceford Twp., York Co. His sons were Jacob, Isaac, Abraham, Andrew, Christian, John, and Benjamin. He was a Mennonite. |
Definitely pursue. Information ellipsed should be reviewed as it names Michael’s brothers, Isaac and John. | |

These sons, Benjamin and Abraham, lived within and operated this mill until 1824 when it failed. … | Sadly no. If his sons operated the mill until 1824, this son Abraham cannot match mine. My Abraham migrated to Kentucky not long after 1802. | |
| 68 | A41127 | Abraham G. Kauffman (Oct. 28, 1843-July 3, 1920) md. Martha Metzger (Feb. 11, 1850-July 22, 1923). | No | |

Kauffman and his sister Fanny K. Kautz had another brother, whose name is not remembered, and that he lived in Manor. Twp. | No | |
| 71 | A413 | Abraham H. Kauffman ( ) md. ______ Kurtz. He helped run his father’s mill at Windom, Pa., until the failure of the business due largely to the first panic in 1819. Banks recalled money at a time when little money could be realized for commodities in storage. Possibly an after-effect of the War of 1812. | No | |

| 191-192 | A5735 | Abraham Sprenkle Kauffman (Nov. 9, 1835-Nov. 14, 1855 of pneumonia). The story runs that he was engaged to be married, and hastened after a day’s work to take a bath which chilled him too much so that he made a short call, returning home early due to not feeling well, and death followed a few days later. | No, but the story of his impending marriage and the bath deserved some web page space. | |
| 192-193 | A57386 | Mary Virginia Kauffman (Feb. 25, 1877- ) md. Jan. 30, 1900, Paul Sylvester Kauffman (Jan. 9, 1875- ), son of Abraham and Salinda (Glatfelter Kauffman (see B727523); … | No | |

A letter of Jacob Kauffman, ninth son of Andrew states, “After grandfather moved, one of the older boys went to Frederick, Md., and father never saw him after he left home.

We know that his brother Abe married in Washington Co., Md., in 1819 to his second cousin Susanna Herr and letter may refer to Abraham,; but Abe is younger than Andrew. | Extremely doubtful as this family was in Adams Co., PA (Reading Twp.)

John Ruble whose son Dr. W. K. Ruble is Health Director of Wilmington, O. | Doubtful. However, he could have been the son of My Abraham’s brother or cousin.

| 596 | 4425 | Abraham Coffman md. Emma Kibbler. | No | |
| 604 | 8 | Abraham Kauffman ( ) md. Veronica _________. In 1783, he and his wife deed their interest to the land in W. Nanteal Twp., Chester Co., to his mother.

In 1821, one Abraham Kauffman died in Armaugh Twp., Mifflin Co., Pa., and willed his wife Fanny everything. His executors were son Abraham and Daniel Kreider. | No. And more details in this section on his father Christian Kauffman ( -1764) md. Jan. 13, 1755, Margaretta Schnaebele, who died 1784. … Often people try to connect My Abraham with this one. But as you can see he died in 1821 in PA; mine died in 1848 in KY. | |
| 612 | 4 | Abraham Kauffman was the executor of father’s (Jacob) will. … | No. Father Jacob (1823-1879). | |

The tax roll for Donegal Twp., Lancaster Co., Pa., shows him in 1757 taxed 15 shillings. Tradition speaks of him coming from Switzerland, and serving in his community as a Mennonite minister. Issue: Abraham, John, and Barbara. | No. But because the data fits and is often referenced as a ‘good probability’, I am including the other details of these “Abraham’s” to save time in the future. One of the most telling reasons is that this book does outline the siblings and none of them FIT my family. However, I wouldn’t be surprised in the future to find them as “kissin’ cousins”. | |
| 623 | 7–1 | Abraham Kauffman (1741-1802) md. Magdalena Shirk, dau. of Casper Sherick of Bethel Twp. He fell heir to the homestead which is now near Annville, Lebanon Co., Pa.

Tradition relates he came down the Monongahela River, settling temporarily at Zanesville, later going to Kentucky and finally at New Albany, Floyd Co., Ind. | No. His parents were Henry & Catherine (?)

[PA) stating that his brother David Coffman lately died and left three children under 14 years named Samuel, Abraham, and Christian. … | No. Father David is about the same age of my Abraham.

But the way it appears, even though Abraham is not listed above as a probable brother or son, he is listed here as Michael Coffman’s son along with Solomon, Nevelle, and Jesse. What if … what if the VA listed in the census for my Abraham was really West Virginia???? | |
| 709 | 5 | Abraham Coffman md. (?) Aug. 12, 1796, Margaret Hawn, or possibly June 20, 1797, Polly Weaver, or Mar. 23, 1806, Martha Gomer. These marriages took place in Shenandoah Co.
