MRS. H. F. GROMAN was born in Durham township, Bucks county, 
Pa., August 16, 1832.  She is a daughter of Peter and 
Elizabeth Fackenthall, and a granddaughter of Michael 
Fackenthall.  Her great-grandfather, Philip Fackenthall, 
emigrated from the province of Rotterdam, Holland, in the 
year 1734.  She was educated in the common schools of Durham 
township.  She was married October 9, 1853, to John Groman, 
and had two children: Lizzie, who died in infancy, and John 
F.   After their marriage Mr. and Mrs. Groman moved to Point 
Pleasant, in Bucks county, where Mr. Groman engaged in the 
milling business. They remained there four years and then 
removed to Lambertville, N. J., where Mr. Groman rented a 
large flouring mill and carried it on for eighteen years 
until his death, which occurred February 8, 1876.  Mrs. 
Groman was confirmed as a member of the Reformed church of 
Durham, November 4, 1848, by the Rev. W. T. Gerhard, and was 
by certificate admitted to the First Presbyterian church of 
Lambertville, and still retains her membership therein.  She
