Notes:

Some confusion here from the various lists available on-line concerning the children of this family.

Listed as Michael KAUFFMAN III in The Descendants of Jacob Kauffman I (a document file from The Brehm/LaPella Family Tree Website) with four sons: Martin, Michael, David, and Christian.

Listed as being born in Berne, Switzerland (1673/74) on the Family Tree of Michael J. Thissen website. Shows two marriages to Anna Kneisele, the second one being about 1690 in Switzerland. Five children are shown being the issue of this marriage: Christianna, Michael, David, Christian, and Martin.

The Hart Family website appears to be the most recent updated list and is the source for what is used here.

More material about Michael Kauffman III is available on the page for his son, Martin.
