Cunigunda Deppman Born: 23 August 1824 Schweisdorf, Kingdom of Bavaria Died: probably before 1888 Place: unknown

Cunigunda was the eldest of ten surviving children of Georg Zenk and Barbara Dumbrof. She was born in Schweisdorf. The flag shown here is the Bavarian state flag.

Cunigunda married Johann Deppman on 25 January 1847 in Lohndorf, Bavaria.

Between 1849 and 1869, Johann and Cunigunda had eleven children:

1. Maria Margaretha (Margaret) (15 Jan 1849 - 7 Apr 1926)
   She married Gebhard Carl Bartley (1844-1919)
2. Anna Maria (Mary) (b. 28 Jun 1850)
   She married Peter Anderson
3. Johann (John) (b. 19 Jan 1853)
   He married Josephine T. Jones
4. Michael [Dippman] (25 Aug 1855 - 22 Mar 1928)
   He married Maria Theresia (Mary) Fleitz (1860-1935)
   Michael worked as farmer.
5. Margaretha (Maggie) (b. 19 Jan 1858)
   She married Eugene Mauder
6. Georg (Georg) (14 Apr 1860 - 27 Mar 1889)
   He married Ophelia Mae Collins (1863-1928)
7. Martin (22 Mar 1862 - 27 Mar 1862)
   He died in infancy.
8. Cunigunda (29 Jul 1863 - 3 Aug 1863)
   She died in infancy.
9. Georg Josef (Joseph) (27 Aug 1864 - 3 Apr 1947)
   married Phoebe A. Hall (1863-1940)
   Joseph worked as farmer.
10. Pancraz Joseph (b. 26 Nov 1866)
    
11. John B. (1868/69 - 24 Oct 1889)
    He became mentally ill, and was committed to the Toledo Asylum for the Insane in April 1888, where he died.

The children were born in Tiefenellern, so the family lived there during this period.

Cunigunda's husband emigrated in 1869, and in July 1870, she and eight of her children received permission to travel to America. However, she does not appear with her children on the Abyssinia passenger list. In addition, her youngest child, John B., is not mentioned in the Bavarian records. She may have emigrated with this child at a later date.

A medical report for John lists "loss of parents while young" as a predisposing cause for his illness, which suggests that Cunigunda died before 1888.
