David Baumgartner, who was born in the Canton of Berne, Switzerland, in 1798, and came to America in 1824, sailing April 27, and arriving at Wayne County, Ohio, September 3, 1798. He was accompanied by his bride Barbara Welty Baumgartner, and when they got to Ohio there were in debt to a man in their native land for their passage to America to the amount of $54.00. In order to pay this indebtedness and gain a foothold in the new country they both worked very hard, all day long and late at night, at whatever their hands found to do, and it is said that at one time Mrs. David Baumgartner husked corn at ten cents a day! Hard and unpromising as was their beginning, they prospered so well that at length they owned a quarter section of land in Indiana, to which his father moved to from Ohio.
