A Bit about Quakers
It began during a period of much religious upheaval in England during the mid-1600s, as people questioned the established church and sought new ways to understand Christianity. The emerging faith community gathered around the leadership of George Fox and others who encouraged people to be guided by a direct, firsthand encounter with the Spirit. These Quakers were seeking an authentic return to “primitive Christianity,” as practiced by the followers of Jesus in the first century.

Anthony Henrick Baughman aka Henry Baughman, Bachman
Born: 1750 Germany
Died: 1822 Baltimore, Maryland ?
Buried: Unknown
Married: 1775 Maria Barbara (--?--) in Manheim Twp., York Co., PA
Records:
The more I look at these records, the more I think they are about at least two people. I'm not sure why Henry would go to York Co., Pennsylvania and then back to Baltimore, when most of his family was moving farther west into Ohio.
