Notes - Hello, James,
My name is Patrick Hanna. I was browsing your Thoma family web site this evening, in search of information about one of my uncles: Joe Esser. I found the info I was looking for, but noticed an error on your page, and it concerned my mother's name.
In the line of Margaret Martin and Lorenz Esser, please go to George Bernard Esser, and then to their first child, who was my mother. You
have her name incorrectly listed as "Marguerite Philis Mary Esser."
In reality, her given name was Marguerite Marie Esser. I might be able to explain the source of the confusion. Mom always told me there was a gruff, raw, unpolished old parish priest in Boonville at the time of her baptism. My grandparents told him the name of the child was "Marguerite Marie". According to my Mom, he thought that was too flowery, so he baptized her as "Margaret Mary." He probably entered it into the baptismal records that way, too, but that was not her given name. I don't know where the "Philis" comes from, and perhaps you can enlighten me. In any event, you have a good site and
I'm sure it's useful to geneologists--congratulations on your work.
When you get time, please note the change on my mother's name.
...and if you ever trace her children, you will find me as the sixth
born: Charles Patrick Hanna.
Thanks, and carry on the good work!
Pat Hanna
