Birth
Andrew Barkman was born 1835 according to his tombstone.[1] to Garret Barkman (B. Aug 13, 1803, D. Jan 27, 1884) and his wife Eliza Lee (B. Nov 23, 1806, D. Mar 27, 1872).[2][3] He was a middle child in a large family.[2] He was baptized October 11, 1839 at the old Rensselaerville Baptist Church[4]
Marriage & Children
After serving in the Civil War, Andrew married a woman named Hannah in May of 1870. Hannah apparently died just after the 1880 Census and then Andrew remarried Mary Fisher[1], who was many years his junior, having been born in February 1855.[5] Andrew and Mary had the following children:
- Edith V. Barkman (B. Aug 1882)[5]
- Edna M. Barkman (B. Aug 1884)[5]
- Arthur S. Barkman (B. Aug 1886)[5]
- Harriet G. Barkman (B. July 1891)[5]

Life
Before the Civil War, Andrew and his family lived in Rensselaerville, Albany County, NY.[3][8] After the Civil War, Andrew returned home where he married a woman named Hannah in May of 1870.[9] At the time, they were living next to Andrew's brother and parents in Westerlo. Andrew was working as a farmer. A decade later Andrew, who was still living in Westerlo, was recorded as a basketmaker.[10] Apparently shortly after that census, Andrew's wife Hannah died and he remarried in about 1882 to a woman named Mary Fisher.[5] He and Mary subsequently had a large family. In 1890 US Veterans Census recorded Andrew in Westerlo.[6] In 1900 Andrew and his family were still living in Westerlo and he was working as a day laborer and living in a rented house.[5]
Death
Andrew died 1907[1]. In the 1910 US Census his widowed wife and several children can be found living in Westerlo.[11]. Mary Fisher Barkman died 1924[1]. They are buried in the Westerlo Rural Cemetery.[1]
