the behrmann lines
Elizabeth "Bessie" Ingar Behrmann was my Grandmother. I will start this page writing a little about Bessie. Bessie was one of four children of Henry and Levy Nettie (Goss) Behrmann. Bessie Married William Cornell Crafts on 29th of April 1927 in Farmington, New Mexico. So, this is how the Behrmann line enters our family tree. My grandmother, Bessie, was only married to William for a few years. Through William, she gave birth to two children; Zora, my mother, and my aunt (still Living). Bessie and William divorced and Bessie later married John Earl Huffman on 28 Nov 1933 in Salt Lake City, Utah. Bessie gave birth to two more children with this new union, a girl and a boy, and they are still living; There were so many of the Behrmann histories that were written; so I'm not going to re-write them, but simply offer them as downloadable files.

William Ferdinand Otto Behrmann was my great great-grandfather.
William Ferdinand Otto Behrmann
Written by daughter-in-law, LEVY NETTIE GOSS BEHRMANN
Father and Mother Behrmann joined the Latter Day Saint church in Denmark and then immigrated to America, then Sanpete, Utah. After staying there a while, they were called to help settle Arizona by President Young. Rather, Brother Behrmann was always willing to do Whatever he was asked to do in the church, so to Arizona they went. Father first, then Mother and the children afterwards. They settled in Brigham City near what is now known as Winslow, Arizona. After some time they were called to Colorado where they both died and were buried in the Sanford graveyard near Richfield. I hope the posterity of William Ferdinand Otto Behrmann will ever be True to the cause for which he sacrificed so much, The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-Day-Saints. He was a power for good. I have been Immediately healed under his hands and my husbands.
