• LifeSketch: The earliest known record of the family is recorded in a baptismal book in the parish of Steffisburg in which it shows that Jacob K0uffman and Christini Riber had a daughter Anl16 baptized April 3, 1580>. The marriage must have been elsewhere. A few years later his wife died and he remarried May 11, 1584, to Anni Biircki of Trimstein. The church record states that Jacob Kauffman was from Schopfen in the vicinity of Basel. Undoubtedly this refers to Schofheim, Baden, where the Kaufmann family had lived long before this time and no Schopfen being found in Switzerland at this early date. Jacob Kauffman or his son married Dec. 13, 1613, Verena Barb. Trimstein lies in the parish of Munsingen, two hours north of Steffisburg. Source: Copyrighted 1940..Charles Fahs Kauffman

• Other: Close associate of Anabaptist leader Jacob Amman. In Alsace, France on Feb. 7, 1700 he signed a letter with Jacob Amman, the leader of the Amish division.
• FSID: MSPF-2VL
• Occupation: Farmer, teacher, and well-known minister, often on the run because he was sought after for arrest by legal authorities for his religious leadership
• Religion: Oberländer Mennonite - Anabaptist

Notes:

Isaac Kauffman (1653–1798?) became one of the outstanding Mennonite teachers of his time and community, and was constantly on the move to avoid arrest. He acted as sponsor for many children. The title "Täuferlehrer" reflects the leadership role he played in the Mennonite religion.

See the references to Unser Leit and A Genealogy of the Kauffman-Coffman Families.

Notes regarding Isaac's son Isaac Jr. and family:

In the book by Charles Kauffman, A Genealogy and History of the Kauffman-Coffman Families of North America, it is reported that Isaac Kauffman Jr. (1685–?) married Anna Streit and was the son of Mennonite religious leader (Täuferlehrer Isaac Kauffman (1653–1741). The younger Isaac moved out of the country after the death of his mother Elsbeth Magerdt Kauffman. The book reports on three of Isaac Jr.'s children: Hans (John), Barbara, and Isaac. (See pages xv–xviii.)

There are other sons attributed to Isaac Jr. from Swiss birth records, including Hans born Dec 1723 and Stephen born in 1725 in Switzerland. There are also sons by the same names with earlier dates, so the earlier dates may be misattributed.

On page xxii, there is also an entry about these Mennonites who traveled from Europe to Pennsylvania: Isaac Kauffman, age 55; Hans Kauffmann, age 24; and Isaac Jr, age 19, entered Sept. 24, 1737, on ship "Virtuous Grace," from Rotterdam. Those birthdates are within three years of the birthdate we have recorded for Isaac, within two years of the birthdate for Hans, and a match for Isaac Jr., which under the circumstances is a good match. (Note that in this family tree, we refer to Täuferlehrer Isaac Kauffman (1653–1741) as Isaac Sr., his son Isaac (1685–?, who was roughly 55 in 1737) as Isaac Jr., and Isaac (1718–circa 1798) as Isaac III.)

However, the mother Anna Streit died in 1730 and is recorded in several genealogies as being buried in Somerset County, Pennsylvania. It is not clear if Anna actually died in Switzerland or if she traveled to Pennsylvania earlier. It seems more likely that she died in Switzerland.

About a different Isaac Kauffman:

On pages xxiii–xxv, Isaac is mentioned as part of the 1717 land acquisition in Manor Township, Lancaster County, Pennsylvania along the Little Conestoga Creek, along with neighbors Andrew Kauffman and Melchior Erisman. On page 1 about Andrew Kauffman, the author writes, "When Isaac Kauffman, his neighbor on the east, died intestate in 1737, Andrew Kauffman, Isaac Kauffman's widow Elizabeth, and Melchior Erisman, were bonded Jan. 8, 1738, to administer Isaac Kauffman's estate. This Isaac is very likely Reverend Isaac Kauffman (1683, Bern–1738, Manor Township, Lancaster County, Pennsylvania), who was married to Elizabeth J. Barbara Brubaker Kauffman (1695, Switzerland–1751, Lancaster County, Pennsylvania).

On page 330 of Charles Kauffman's book, there is an error. It says: "Isaac Kauffman (died 1738) married Elizabeth (died 1751). He is probably the sone of Täuferlehrer Isaac Kauffman who lived at Homberg, Parish of Steffisburg near Thun, Switzerland. For further reference see opening chapter of this genealogy. In Rupp's "Thirty Thousand Immigrants," Isaac Kauffman is named as head of one of the thirty-five families settled in what is now Lancaster County, Pennsylvania, but then in the year 1717 part of Chester County." It goes on to describe Isaac Kauffman's warrant for land.

This Isaac Kauffman described by Charles Kauffman is again very likely Reverend Isaac Kauffman. However, the book is incorrect that he was probably the son of Täuferlehrer Isaac Kauffman mentioned in the book's prequel (pages xv–xvii). Instead, the son of Täuferlehrer Isaac Kauffman is our Isaac Kauffman Jr. (1685–?), husband to Anna Streit; he didn't emigrate with his sons to Pennsylvania until 1737.

Isaac married Anna Elsbeth Megerdt on 18 Feb 1676 in Erlenbach im Simmental, Bern, Switzerland. Anna was born on 8 Mar 1657 in Erlenbach im Simmental, Bern, Switzerland; died in 1715 in Steffisburg, Bern, Switzerland. [Group Sheet] [Family Chart]

On page xxii, there is also an entry about these Mennonites who traveled from Europe to Pennsylvania: Isaac Kauffman, age 55; Hans Kauffmann, age 24; and Isaac Jr, age 19, entered Sept. 24, 1737, on ship "Virtuous Grace," from Rotterdam. Those birthdates are within three years of the birthdate we have recorded for Isaac, within two years of the birthdate for Hans, and a match for Isaac Jr., which under the circumstances is a good match. (Note that in this family tree, we refer to Täuferlehrer Isaac Kauffman (1653–1741) as Isaac Sr., his son Isaac (1685–?, who was roughly 55 in 1737) as Isaac Jr., and Isaac (1718–circa 1798) as Isaac III.)

However, the mother Anna Streit died in 1730 and is recorded in several genealogies as being buried in Somerset County, Pennsylvania. It is not clear if Anna actually died in Switzerland or if she traveled to Pennsylvania earlier. It seems more likely that she died in Switzerland.

About a different Isaac Kauffman:

On pages xxiii–xxv, Isaac is mentioned as part of the 1717 land acquisition in Manor Township, Lancaster County, Pennsylvania along the Little Conestoga Creek, along with neighbors Andrew Kauffman and Melchior Erisman. On page 1 about Andrew Kauffman, the author writes, "When Isaac Kauffman, his neighbor on the east, died intestate in 1737, Andrew Kauffman, Isaac Kauffman's widow Elizabeth, and Melchior Erisman, were bonded Jan. 8, 1738, to administer Isaac Kauffman's estate. This Isaac is very likely Reverend Isaac Kauffman (1683, Bern–1738, Manor Township, Lancaster County, Pennsylvania), who was married to Elizabeth J. Barbara Brubaker Kauffman (1695, Switzerland–1751, Lancaster County, Pennsylvania).

On page 330 of Charles Kauffman's book, there is an error. It says: "Isaac Kauffman (died 1738) married Elizabeth (died 1751). He is probably the sone of Täuferlehrer Isaac Kauffman who lived at Homberg, Parish of Steffisburg near Thun, Switzerland. For further reference see opening chapter of this genealogy. In Rupp's "Thirty Thousand Immigrants," Isaac Kauffman is named as head of one of the thirty-five families settled in what is now Lancaster County, Pennsylvania, but then in the year 1717 part of Chester County." It goes on to describe Isaac Kauffman's warrant for land.

This Isaac Kauffman described by Charles Kauffman is again very likely Reverend Isaac Kauffman. However, the book is incorrect that he was probably the son of Täuferlehrer Isaac Kauffman mentioned in the book's prequel (pages xv–xvii). Instead, the son of Täuferlehrer Isaac Kauffman is our Isaac Kauffman Jr. (1685–?), husband to Anna Streit; he didn't emigrate with his sons to Pennsylvania until 1737.

Christian Martin (1694 -1758) also of Manor Twp., Lancaster Co., Pa. He acquired choice to the homestead by lot against his brother Christian, so at his death, he used the same plan with the Neff property which he had just purchased, having his two sons, Jacob and Andrew, to decide by lot who should have first right to the place. Just prior to his death, he sold nine acres of the original tract, which extended north of the Lincoln Highway, to John Stoner, who then sold it to Stephen Hornberger, the innkeeper, who was also buried on the Kauffman plot. According to his will, his oldest son Christian was to receive 177 acres of the old homestead but pay his oldest sister within a year after death 100 pounds, 6 shillings, thereafter 33 pounds for three years to each of his brothers and sisters. He was not to sell the place before he lived there 15 years in marriage and before he had paid 600 pounds.
