GETMAN FAMILY RECOLLECTIONS
The Name Once the Most Common in Town of Columbia
(South Columbia Co-respondent)
A pleasant meeting with Mrs. Frank Getman of Washington, who is seeking a rest cure at the hospitable Starr homestead, stirs recollections of the days when there were more Getmans enrolled in Columbia than any other name. Her ancestors. Frederick Getman and his wife, Marie Katherine Brodhack, were pioneers of the town, who settled opposite the present Hauer Settlement school house. Frederick was one of four brothers who served in the Revolution in the Fourth Tryon County Militia. He was a prisoner of war, his property was all destroyed and he was a claimant for damages. He was one of the occupants of the historic Ellis Mills in Little Falls when raided by the Tories and Indians. Above his grave in the Columbia cemetery from a bronze D. A. R. marker the Stars and Stripes are floating.
Mr. and Mrs. Frederic Getman were succeeded at the homestead by their youngest son, Bartlett B, Getman, father of the late well remembered Dr. Norman Getman of Richfield Springs, whose son, Albert, succeeded him in the profession, and now two grandsons, Norman of Oneonta and Albert of Syracuse, are displaying the same skill their successor so surely possessed.
Two of the sons of Frederic and Maria Katherine Getman, Conrad of 1763 and Frederic of 1776, married daughters of Timothy and Ann Elizabeth Bellinger Frank, whose home was at the north foot of Orendorf hill, was moved, across the road when later it became the home of the Merrills. Conrad also served in the same company with his father in the Revolution and lived and died in the Timothy Frank homestead. Frederic, who married Magdalene Frank, occupied the adjoining premises, now owned by Edward Turner, and reared a large family. His wife died and he married Mrs. Delano, born Margaret Hess, and their one child was the well remembered Hiram Getman. Margaret. Hess was a child when Gen. Washington came up the Mohawk Valley, and among her few treasures were- some pieces of money given her by the great man, who held her upon his knee. John Frank Getman of the well known Tunnicliff Cottage in Richfield Springs, whose father was a half brother of Hiram, has a fine portrait of this lady painted by Miss Ellen Clapsaddle, and remembers his step-grandmother distinctly. Hiram Getman and his wife, Malissa Vosberg, had five daughters - Ellen who died in the middle of the last century; Emma; who is the wife of LaMott K. Devendorf; Lizzie, the widow of the late Hon.: A. C. Tennant and mother of Attorney Clermont Tennant of Cooperstown; Frank, whose presence on her native hills has called forth this bit of family history, and Carrie, their youngest born. Hiram Getman removed from the home farm to Richfield Springs, where he passed the remainder of his life. He was a wide-awake public spirited man, who is remembered by the older citizens of the Springs.- Death Announcement (The Otsego Farmer, Cooperstown, NY, Saturday, January 16, 1886)
Mr. Hiram Getman of Richfield Springs, deputy Sheriff, died last Wednesday, of congestion of the lungs.
- Obituary (Find A Grave)
Mrs. Melissa Getman, widow of the late Hiram Getman, died at the home of her daughter, Mrs. L . M. Diefendorf, in the city of Washington, last Saturday.

Mrs. Getman had been in feeble health since last autumn, but her condition was not regarded as of a serious nature until last May. Mrs. Getman was a kind and lovable mother and was greatly esteemed by all. She was an active and zealous worker and a faithful member of the Methodist church. Four daughters remain to mourn for their mother, Mrs. Tennant, wife of Hon. A.C. Tennant of this village; Mrs. LaMott Diefendorf, Mrs. Carrie Skinner and Miss Frank Getman of Washington.

Died at her home in Jerry, NY, Wednesday, May 23d, 1900, aged 59 years 7 months and 21 days. She was born in Waterbury, Vt, Oct 2, 1840.
She was a person held in high esteem by all who knew her as a lady of culture and refinement, having been a successful teacher from early childhood, also a poet. She composed many beautiful verses. She was a faithful and earnest Christian, and beloved by all who knew her. When we say we have lost one of our best and most respected residents, we but reiterate the expressed sentiment of all who were well acquainted with her, and a universal feeling of sadness was felt in our community when the announcement of her death came, though but little hopes of her recovery had been entertained for several weeks by her near relatives and attendants.
Besides a host of relatives and friends she leaves two sons to mourn her loss, John and Alec Hess. Her funeral was largely attended at Carley’s Mills schoolhouse, Friday, May 25th, Rev. Edward F. Green of Parish conducting the services. Many beautiful floral tributes spoke eloquently of the high esteem in which she was held, and literally covered with flowers, our beloved friend was laid to rest. She passed from our sight, but the influence of her virtuous life, the remembrance of her unfailing patience and kindness will long serve to keep her memory green.
