Heinrich Friedrich Hamann
Birth: 27 Nov 1863 at Ellerbach, Germany
Married: 23 Aug 1893 to Anna Wilhelmina "Minnie" Christine Volmert near Omaha, Douglas County, Nebraska.
Children:
John Frederich Hamann, Anna M. (Hamann) Gardner, Helen (Hamann) Kieffer, Ida (Hamann) Wood, Ruby Lenora (Hamann) Lowe, Dorothea (Dorothy) Elizabeth (Hamann) Pavlacky, Henry Rosebud Hamann, Alice (Hamann) Brockman Alice Florence Hamann Brockman, and Burneta Gertrude (Hamann) Fischer Fischer, Burneta G. Haman .

Mother: Margareta (Unknown) Hamann
Father: Claus Hamann
[These are the names listed on the marriage license on file in the county court house, Omaha, Douglas County, Nebraska.]

Mr. Hamann was born in Ellerbach, Germany. When he was 25, about 1889, he emigrated to the United States of America. Family tradition says he left Germany to avoid the military draft under Kaizer Wilhelm. It is said he worked his way over by feeding the cattle on board a ship. No one knows the port of departure, type of ship, or port of arrival.

Mr. Hamann settled near Elkhorn (Chicago District/Omaha), Douglas county, Nebraska where he began farming and raising stock. On August 23rd, 1893 Henry Hamann married Anna Wilhelmina "Minnie" Christine Volmert of Douglas County, Nebraska. They settled together near Elkhorn (Chicago District/Omaha), Douglas county, Nebraska. Here they remained until 1910 at which time they obtained a homestead at Herrick (later Spring Valley), Gregory County, South Dakota. Here they pursued faming and stock raising. Here they raised a family of nine children.

Sometime before 1940, Henry's health began to fail. It is not known from what malady he suffered. It was, evidently, a lengthy progression of failing health. Their younger son took over running the ranch and his parents moved into Burke for a period of time. Less than one month before his demise, Henry and Minnie moved back to the ranch with their son and his wife.
