March 10, 2005 - Updates and corrections were received from Kurt Brossman, Pamela Pruitt, Crystal Tellup and Nicole Brossman.  In addition to these updates, I was able add or correct a few minor dates etc.  These were made possible by once again going through my extra list.  This list is about 400 names with information on people that did not seem to fit in our tree but I have now found the connection.  I have also added another Brossman Book in the PDF format.  This format now includes pictures.  The GEDCOM file now contains 3034 individuals, 1015 families, 229 individuals named Brosman, 99 individuals named Bressman and 776 individuals named Brossman.

September 25, 2004 - Updates were received from Chris Mosher, Crystal Tellup and Kim Prather.  I was also able to add some information that I obtained from a variety of sources at the second family reunion held in Longmont Colorado the last weekend of July 2004.  The GEDCOM file now contains 2993 names and 1005 families.

March 6th, 2004 - I have spent several days cross checking my social security death index against the names already in the file and have updated a number of birth and death dates.  I again would like to thank Corrinne Ellis, Tammy Clark, Carol Brossman, George Carl Brossman and Beverly Carney (nee Brossman) for their updates and corrections.  This version includes 2955 names and 992 families.  Many of these new names and families will only be shown in the Gedcom file as they are ancestors of my mother which go back to 1716 also in what is now Germany.

February 3, 2004 - Again there have been a small number of additions and corrections.  Thanks are due to Robin Brudereck Martin, Lori Ann Norton and especially Corrinne Ellis without whose help, the Bressman story and Bressman line would not be complete.  The Bressman Story has been updated with some interesting information on Andrew Bressman.  This version now contains 2526 names and 780 families.

April 23, 2003 - Added Census information for Jacob Bressman and family.  This information is accessible through the Bressman Story link.


December 29, 2002 - Updated the Jacob Bressman Story.   A major realignment of the following family.  Sarah Lutz was married to Jacob Brossman 14 Jun 1812 - 16 Mar 1890 and not Jacob Brossman 4 Nov. 1830 - 6 Dec 1909.  So the resultant family belongs with the former and not the latter.  Added a major family lineage for Isaac Brossman 26 Oct. 1813 - 3 Dec 1861 of Muddy Creek Church, Lancaster PA.  Added picture for Andrew Bressman  1876.  The Brossman Family Tree now contains 2368 names and 714 families.
