Thank you for your reply! I was beginning to wonder if everyone had left
town! :-) I sent this the day before but never got it back via the list.
This is the copy that I typed up:
History of Vigo County, Indiana : with biographical selections
By H. C. Bradsbury
S. B. Nelson & Co., Publishers, 1891, Chicago
Page 685
A. H. Boegeman, dealer in boots and shoes, Terre Haute, was born in
Enochsburg, Franklin County, Indiana, July 28, 1851, and is second in the
family of five children of Frank and Elizabeth (Wacker) Boegeman, natives of
Hanover, Germany. He was united in marriage July 28, 1872, with Frances A.
Cooley, a daughter of Silvester and Mary (Partlow) Cooley, natives of
Illinois. She is the second in a family of five children, and was born in
Clark County, Illinois, July 11, 1854. Mr. and Mrs. Boegeman have had born
to them four children, as follows: Frank, Catharine, William and Nona. Mr.
Boegeman received his education in the common schools, and learned the
shoemaker's trade, at which he worked in Oldenburg, Franklin County, three
years. In 1870 he removed to Terre Haute, and worked at his trade here
about seven years; then engaged in the boot and shoe business, which he has
since followed with success. He has made his way in the world by his own
exertions. Mr. and Mrs. Boegeman are members of the Christian Church, in
which he is a deacon. He is a member of the I.O.O.F., No. 51, Terre Haute,
and of the Encampment. Mr. Boegeman resides one mile east of Terre Haute.
I don't know why Lucinda Ellen (Partlow) Cooley is listed as Mary (Partlow)
Cooley...I don't believe this can be anyone else...must be error of the
author.
