Research Notes:
"Maria Barbara Thoman, daughter of Johann Heinrich and Magdalena Thoman (their third child) was born April 30, 1795 and her baptism sponsors were Adam Hoffman and his wife, Maria's grandparents. Apparently, this birth was not found in the Lischy's (St. Peter's) Church records, but was listed in the Thoman Bible." Then, Heinrich and Magdalena's son Adam (their 8th child) was born October 7, 1805 and baptized June 3, 1806. His sponsors were his grandparents, Adam Hoffman and his wife. [10]
