Rev. P. S. Lehmann, a minister of the Mennonite Church in Hickory County, Mo., 
was born in Switzerland in November, 1821.  His parents Peter and Katie (Tshantz) 
Lehmann, were born in Switzerland, the former in 1780, and died there in 1864.  
The grandfather, Michael Lehmann, was a farmer in that country.  Rev. P. S. 
Lehmann is next to the youngest of nine children, and received a good German 
education in his native land.  After teaching school for some time, he was 
married in 1846 to Miss Verena Sprunger, who was born in 1828, and their union 
has been blessed in the birth of eight children: Annie, wife of Christian 
Luginbill; Mary, wife of Christian Gillium; Rachel, wife of P. Gillium Katie, 
wife of David Ninschwander; Japhet; Dinah, wife of Joel Welty; Emma, and Lydia.  
In 1852 Mr. Lehmann removed with his family to the United States, and, after 
residing and living in Indiana for sixteen years, he came to Missouri, and settled 
in Hickory County, on a fine farm of 205 acres, which he has tilled in connection 
with his ministerial duties ever since, having been engaged in the latter occupation
since 1848.  His daughter Emma is one of the successful teachers of Hickory County, 
and is an exceptionally intelligent young lady.
