PETER AMBROSE BAUGHMAN
John Baughman Jr. (1846-1915)
Peter Ambrose Baughman was born 14 Oct 1905 to Clover and Lea Baughman in Rose Township, Pennsylvania. His paternal grandparents were John and Fietta (Himes) Baughman Jr. His maternal grandparents were Soloman and Margaret (Kunselman) Schaffner.
Peter married Violet M. Johns about 1928 and they had three sons: Robert, Richard, and Raymond. All were born in Jefferson County, Pennsylvania.
Based on information from the 1910 United States Federal Census
In 1910, in the small town of Rose, Jefferson, Pennsylvania, we find the Baughman family residing together. The head of the household is O Clover Baughman, a 34-year-old man. Living with him is his 32-year-old wife, Levina A Baughman. They have five children, ranging in age from 11 to 2 years old.
The eldest daughter, Margaret, is 11 years old, followed by Jay, who is 9 years old. Leonard, the third child, is 8 years old. Marie, the only daughter among the siblings, is 6 years old. Lastly, we have Pete Baughman, who is 4 years old, and Mildred, the youngest at 2 years old.
Pete Baughman, the focus of our narrative, was born in Pennsylvania in 1906. As a young boy, he is listed as single and living with his family. Pete's father and mother were both born in Pennsylvania as well, indicating a strong connection to their home state.
The Baughman family's household consists of eight members in total. While we don't have any specific information about their daily lives or occupations, we can imagine the bustling energy of a household with five young children. Pete, being the second youngest, would likely be surrounded by the constant activity and noise of his siblings.
Based on information from the 1920 United States Federal Census
In 1920, in the small town of Beaver, Pennsylvania, a 14-year-old boy named Pete Baughman resided with his family on a street nestled between Pansy and Conifer. Pete was the youngest son of Clover and Lavina Broughman, both Pennsylvania natives.
Living in a household of nine, Pete had four older siblings: B Jay, H Lenard, Marie, and Mildred. The family dynamic seemed bustling and lively, with siblings of varying ages. Pete's younger sisters, Ruth and Gertrude, added a touch of youthful energy to the household, aged 9 and 5 respectively.
Despite being just a teenager, Pete was already well-versed in the English language, having attended school and developed his reading and writing skills. His ability to communicate effectively in English showcased his dedication to education and his eagerness to learn.
Based on information from the 1930 United States Federal Census In 1930, in the small town of Rose, Jefferson, Pennsylvania, Peter Baughman, a 24-year-old white male, was the head of his household. He lived on Brookville Road in a rented home with his wife, Violet M Baughman, who was 23 years old, and their newborn son, Robert Baughman.
Peter worked as a laborer in the coal mines, indicating that he was a wage or salary worker. Despite not attending school, he was able to read and write, suggesting a level of education beyond basic literacy.
The Baughman family did not own a radio set, which was not surprising as this was an uncommon form of entertainment at that time. This means they would have had to rely on other forms of entertainment or socializing within their community. Overall, this data paints a picture of a young working-class family living in a rented home in a coal mining town. Despite their modest circumstances, Peter's ability to read and write, along with his employment, indicates a level of stability and potential for upward mobility.
