"John" was born in Hauerz, Wurtenburg, Germany. We have nothing on his parents who were Joseph and Christine Schwarz - we need their dates & their cemetery.
He lost his son with Ursula, his first wife, in 1916 of an accidental gun accident. They married in 1890 in Germany. Ursula was buried in Calvary Cemetery.
Theresa was his second wife, they married 20 Jun 1903 in Bridgeport, Saginaw, Michigan, and she is buried next to her second husband, Arndt.
John is buried in this cemetery according to his obituary column. There were no records on the free on-line Saginaw Public Library listing, nor was he listed on www.seekingmichigan.org site with a Death Record.

Jefferson High School, 1947, Salutatorian. Carleton College, Northfield, Minnesota, 1947-49. University of Wisconsin, Madison, 1949-51, BA, German,
Pres of Delta Gamma Sorority, 1950. Married to Col John O Batiste from 11 Aug 1951 until his death in Jaffrey Center, NH, 6 Aug 1979. "My 28 years
as an Army wife were challenging as I was totally involved in my husband's career. John and I lived in Athens, Greece, from 1954-57. Those years
kindled a life-long interest in the Middle East. In 1959 the Army designated John a Foreign Area Specialist. Training took us to Princeton for a
year of background study and then on to the Army Language School in Monterey, CA, where we learned to speak, read, and write Farsi, the language of Persia.We lived in Tehran at three different times for a total of six years. We left shortly after the Shah's givernment was toppled in early 1979. At that time John had retired from the military and was a Director of Bell Helicopter International. In 1977 we bought a home in Jaffrey Center as an anchor to windward.A wonderful new chapter of my life began on 5 January 1985 when William Francis Payson and I married in Jaffrey Center in a circle of children and grandchildren. Bill and I share a concern over what is happening in the Middle East, a love of travel, bridge, and never-ending projects. As to my interests, for the past forty years I have followed a daily exercise pattern which now includes a 3.5 mile walk on country roads. I remain close to my church, currently All Saints Episcopal in Peterborough. My years of teaching primary school and involvement with the distaff side of Army life have been replaced with the nurturing of a perennial garden and studing nature by using a sketch pad to observe and draw what I see.I have recently joined the House Corporation of the Zeta Beta Chapter of Delta Gamma at Dartmouth College. I serve on the Advisory Board of the Amos Fortune Forum in Jaffrey Center and have been nominated for the Board of the Cheshire Hospital, Keene, NH. esident of the Village Improvement Society in Jaffrey Center. I am having much fun with this. The Society was formed in the early 1900's to "improve and to ornament the streets and public grounds of Jaffrey Center and vicinity, by taking such action as shall tend to beautify said streets and grounds; to promote a general interest in the improvement of private grounds and to engage in any activities which affect the village." We are responsible for the care of Melvilly Academy which was built in 1833 and used as a private academy to educate students "in a quiet village at the base of Mount Monadnock, happily removed from those excitements which are so apt to divert the minds and corrupt the morals of young students." The building is now our precious museum. Needless to say, I thrive on the life of a New England village.

Mary Day Robinson Payson
Mary Payson, 83, formerly of Jaffrey Center, NH, died Sunday, July 7, 2013, in Raleigh, NC after a long illness.
Born in Milwaukee, WI on May 1, 1930 to Marion Elizabeth Reindl and Dr. Arthur Harrison Robinson, she spent her early years in Jefferson, WI. She studied at Carlton College in Northfield, MN from 1947-49, graduating in 1951 from the University of Wisconsin, where she was a member and president of Delta Gamma.
In August 1951, she married Captain John Olaf Batiste, US Army, in Fort Atkinson, WI. Their service took them to many stations, including Athens, Greece and Tehran, Iran. Mary was a student of culture, particularly of the cuisine, language and handicrafts of the Greek and Iranian people. She was a consummate hostess, and actively supported the communities in which she lived. Retiring to Jaffrey Center, NH in 1977, Colonel Batiste died in August 1979.
Mary married William Francis Payson in January 1985. They continued to live in Jaffrey Center where Mary was at the heart of the life of the historic village, serving many terms as presidents of the Village Improvement Society and the Thorndike Club. Among her efforts in Jaffrey Center were the restoration of the Meetinghouse originally constructed in 1775, the establishment of a museum at the Melville Academy, and the creation of Centennial Park. She served on the Board of Directors of the Jaffrey-Gilmore Foundation and on the Board of the Jaffrey Historical Society.
Mary was also devoted to New Hampshire's natural resources, particularly the high peaks of the White Mountains. Her final hike to Mt. Lafayette along the Franconia Ridge Trail took place in 2004. She was a longtime member of the Appalachian Mountain Club and of its President's Society. Mary was a member of All Saints Episcopal Church in Peterborough, serving on the Altar Guild.
Bill Payson died in April 2000. In February 2009, Mary moved to Springmoor Life Care Retirement Community in Raleigh, NC.

Ada de Warenne, From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Ada de Warenne (or Adeline de Varenne) (c. 1120 - 1178) was the Anglo-Norman wife of Henry of Scotland, Earl of Northumbria and Earl of Huntingdon. She was the daughter of William de Warenne, 2nd Earl of Surrey by Elizabeth of Vermandois, and a great-granddaughter of Henry I of France. She became mother to two Kings of Scots, Malcolm the Maiden and William the Lion. Ada and Henry were married in England in 1139. They had seven children:
Malcolm IV, King of Scots; William the Lion, King of Scots/ Margaret of Huntingdon married 1) Conan IV, Duke of Brittany and 2) Humphrey III de Bohun.
David of Scotland, Earl of Huntingdon married Mathilda (Maud) of Chester. Through their daughter, Isobel, they were the direct ancestors of the renowned Scottish King, Robert the Bruce.; Matilda of Huntingdon, born and died 1152.; Marjorie of Huntingdon, married Gille Crapos;edst, Earl of Angus; Ada of Huntingdon, married Count Floris III of Holland.
As part of her marriage settlement, the new Countess Ada was granted the privileges of Haddington, amongst others in East Lothian. Previously the seat of a thanage Haddington is said to be the first Royal burgh in Scotland, created by Countess Ada's father-in-law, David I of Scotland, who held it along with the church and a mill.
In close succession both her husband and King David died, in 1152 and 1153 respectively. Following the death of Henry, who was buried at Kelso Abbey, King David arranged for his grandson to succeed him, and at Scone on 27 May 1153, the twelve-year-old was declared Malcolm IV, King of Scots. Following his coronation, Malcolm installed his brother William as Earl of Northumbria (although this county was "restored" to King Henry II of England by Malcolm in 1157 ), and the young dowager-Countess retired to her lands at Haddington.
On Thursday 9 December 1165 King Malcolm died at the age of 25 without issue. His mother had at that time been attempting to arrange a marriage between him and Constance, daughter of Conan III, Duke of Brittany, but Malcolm died before the wedding could be celebrated. Following his brother's death Ada's younger son William became King of Scots at the age of 22. William the Lion was to become the longest serving King of Scots until the Union of the Crowns in 1603.
Church patroness -- Religious houses were established in Haddington at an early date. They came to include the Blackfriars (who came into Scotland in 1219) and most notably the Church of the Greyfriars, or Minorites (came into Scotland in the reign of Alexander II), which would become famous as "Lucerna Laudoniae"- The Lamp of Lothian, the toft of land upon which it stands being granted by King David I of Scotland to the Prior of St. Andrews (to whom the patronage of the church of Haddington belonged). David I also granted to the monks of Dunfermline "unam mansuram" in Haddington, as well as to the monks of Haddington a full toft "in burgo meo de Hadintun, free of all custom and service."
Ada devoted her time to good works, improving the lot of the Church at Haddington, where she resided. Countess Ada gave lands to the south and west of the River Tyne near to the only crossing of the river for miles, to found a Convent of Cistercian Nuns ("white nuns") dedicated to St. Mary, in what was to become the separate Burgh of Nungate, the extant remains are still to be seen in the ruined parish church of St. Martin. The nunnery she endowed with the lands of Begbie, at Garvald[disambiguation needed] and Keith Marischal amongst other temporal lands. Miller, however, states that she only "founded and richly endowed a nunnery at the Abbey of Haddington" and that "Haddington, as demesne of the Crown, reverted to her son William the Lion upon her death".
Haddington seat - According to inscriptions within the town of Haddington, Countess Ada's residence was located near the present day County buildings and Sheriff Court. Countess Ada died in 1178[9] and is thought to be buried locally. Her remaining dower-lands were brought back into the Royal desmesne and William the Lion's wife, Ermengarde de Beaumont, is said to have taken to her bed in Countess Ada's house to bear the future Alexander II. Miller states that when the future King was born in Haddington in 1198 it took place "in the palace of Haddington". | (I210014143770)

Agatha, wife of Edward the Exile From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Agatha (before 1030 - after 1070) was the wife of Edward the Exile (heir to the throne of England) and mother of Edgar apos;c6theling, Saint Margaret of Scotland and Cristina of England. Her antecedents are unclear and the subject of much speculation.
Nothing is known of Agatha's early life, and what speculation has appeared is inextricably linked to the contentious issue of Agatha's paternity, one of the unresolved questions of medieval genealogy. As the birth of her children is speculatively placed at around the year 1045, her own birth was probably before about 1030. She came to England with her husband and children in 1057, but was widowed shortly after her arrival. Following the Norman conquest of England, in 1067 she fled with her children to Scotland, finding refuge under her future son-in-law Malcolm III. While one modern source indicates that she spent her last years as a nun at Newcastle-upon-Tyne, dying before about 1093, Simeon of Durham carries what appears to be the last reference to her in 1070.
Ailred of Rievaulx, who provides conflicting accounts of Agatha's origin. Agatha's origin is alluded to in numerous surviving medieval sources, but the information they provide is sometimes imprecise, often contradictory, and occasionally cannot possibly be correct. The earliest surviving source, the Anglo-Saxon Chronicle, along with Florence of Worcester's Chronicon ex chronicis and Regalis prosapia Anglorum, Simeon of Durham and Ailred of Rievaulx describe Agatha as a kinswoman of "Emperor Henry" (thaes ceseres maga, filia germani imperatoris Henrici). In an earlier entry, the same Ailred of Rievaulx had called her a daughter of emperor Henry, as do later sources of dubious credibility such as the Chronicle of Melrose Abbey, while Matthew of Paris calls her the emperor's sister (soror Henrici imperatoris Romani). Geoffrey Gaimar in Lestoire des Engles states that she was daughter of the Hungarian king and queen (Li reis sa fille), although he places the marriage at a time when Edward is thought still to have been in Kiev, while Orderic Vitalis in Historiae Ecclesiasticae is more specific, naming her father as king Solomon (filiam Salomonis Regis Hunorum), actually a contemporary of Agatha's children. William of Malmesbury in De Gestis Regis Anglorum states that Agatha's sister was a Queen of Hungary (reginae sororem) and is echoed in this by Alberic of Trois-Fontaines, while, less precisely, Ailred says of Margaret that she was derived from English and Hungarian royal blood (de semine regio Anglorum et Hungariorum extitit oriunda). Finally, Roger of Howden and the anonymous Leges Edwardi Confessoris indicate that while Edward was a guest of Kievan "king Malesclodus" he married a woman of noble birth (nobili progenio), Leges adding that the mother of St Margaret was of Rus royal blood (ex genere et sanguine regum Rugorum).
Onomastic analysis has also been brought to bear on the question. The name Agatha itself is rare in western Europe at this time. Likewise, those of her children and grandchildren are either drawn from the pool of Anglo-Saxon names to be expected given her husband's membership of the royal family of Wessex, or else are names not typical of western Europe. There is speculation that those of the latter kind derive from Agatha's eastern European ancestry. Specifically, her own name, the names of her daughters Cristina and Margaret, and those of her grandchildren Alexander, David, and Mary, have been used as possible indicators of her origins. | Brunswick, Agatha of (I210023032662)

Agnes of Evreux (AD 1040 -... Prob 1087 BC), was the daughter of Richard, Earl of Evreux, and Godehilde. Before getting married to Richard, his mother Godehilde married Roger I st Tosny, Goms lord, and gave birth to several children, Raoul II of Tosny. Simon, Montfort l'Amaury lord, Isabelle Broyes widower, had asked the hand of Agnes, but the count of Evreux had not acted positively to the request later, for reasons that history n has not passed. That's when Raoul Tosny decided to remove Agnes to bring it to Montfort. Simon and Agnes could marry, and in gratitude, Raoul married Isabelle de Montfort, daughter of Simon and his first wife.
Agnes gave birth to:
Richard (apos;86 1092), Lord of Montfort;
Simon II (apos;86 1101), Lord of Montfort;
Bertrade de Montfort (apos;86 1117), married in 1089 to Fulk IV (1043 to 1109), Count of Anjou, and in 1092 to Philippe I st (apos;86 1108), king of France;
Amaury III (apos;86 1137), Lord of Montfort and count of Evreux.
Simon died in 1087. Agnes was probably dead at that date, as the guardianship of her daughter Bertrade was entrusted to his brother William of Evreux. | Evreux, Countess Monfort Agnes of (I210014142738)

Bertrada of Prapos;fcm From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Bertrada (b. ca. 670; d. after 721), also called Berthe or Bertree, and perhaps a Merovingian princess, is known to be the mother of Charibert of Laon, with whom she is co-founder and benefactor of the Prapos;fcm Abbey. They founded the abbey in 721. Through Charibert's daughter Bertrada of Laon, wife of Pippin the Short, Bertrada is the great-grandmother of Charlemagne. Her husband is unknown for certain. Two alternative solutions to the question of her parentage have been suggested:
She was daughter of the seneschal and Pfalzgraf Hugobert and Irmina of Oeren.
She was daughter of Theuderic III, king of Neustria and Austrasia, and Clotilda of Heristal. | Prüm., Bertrada of (I210023032636)

Carloman I From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Carloman is mainly regarded by historians as Charlemagne's first steps towards acquiring the Holy Roman Empire, as his death allowed Charlemagne to take all of Francia and begin his expansion into other kingdoms. At the age of 3, he was, together with his father, Pepin the Short, and his elder brother, Charlemagne, anointed King of the Franks and titled "Patrician of the Romans" by Pope Stephen II, who had left Rome to beg the Frankish King for assistance against the Lombards. Carloman and Charlemagne each inherited a half of the Kingdom of the Franks upon Pepin's death. His share was based in the centre of the Frankish Kingdom, with his capital at Soissons, and consisted of the Parisian basin, the Massif Central, the Languedoc, Provence, Burgundy, southern Austrasia, Alsace and Alemannia; the regions were poorly integrated and surrounded by those bequeathed to Charlemagne, and, although Carloman's territories were easier to defend than those of Charlemagne, they were also poorer in income.
It is commonly agreed that Carloman and Charlemagne disliked each other, although the reasons behind this are unclear: some historians suggest that each brother considered himself rightfully to be the sole heir of their father - Charlemagne as the elder child, Carloman as the legitimate child (Charlemagne is sometimes claimed to have been born a bastard in 742, a claim not always accepted). Be that as it may, Pepin the Short's disposal of his kingdom appears to have exacerbated the bad relations between the pair, since it required co-operation between the pair and left both feeling cheated.
rimoald II (d. 714) Carloman's reign proved short and troublesome. The brothers shared possession of Aquitaine, which broke into rebellion upon the death of Pepin the Short; when Charlemagne in 769 led an army into Aquitaine to put down the revolt, Carloman led his own army there to assist, before quarrelling with his brother at Moncontour, near Poitiers, and withdrawing, troops and all. This, it had been suggested, was an attempt to undermine Charlemagne's power, since the rebellion threatened the latter's rule; Charlemagne, however, crushed the rebels, whilst Carloman's behaviour had simply damaged his own standing amongst the Franks. Relations between the two then degenerated further, requiring the mediation of their mother, Bertrada, who appears to have favoured Charlemagne, with whom she would live out her widowhood, over Carloman.
In 770, his mother Bertrada began implementing her great strategy. After spending the Easter with Charlemagne at Liege, she visited Carloman at Seltz: her motives for visiting him are unknown, although it is suggested that she was trying to allay his fears of his brother, or persuade him to be more co-operative with Charlemagne, or even secure his agreement and collusion in her plans. However it was, by the end of the year Bertrada and Charlemagne had successfully encircled Carloman: Charlemagne had married Desiderata, the daughter of the Lombard king Desiderius, Carloman's immediate eastern neighbor, and the marriage created an alliance between Charlemagne and the Lombards; Bertrada had also secured for Charlemagne the friendship of Tassilo, Duke of Bavaria, her husband's nephew; she had even attempted to secure Papal support for the marriage by arranging for Desiderius to cede to Rome certain territories to which the Papacy laid claim, although Pope Stephen III remained in theory hostile to an alliance between his allies the Franks and his enemies the Lombards, and in reality deeply conflicted between the threat the Lombards posed to him and the chance to dispose of the anti-Lombard Christopher the Primicerius, the dominant figure at the Papal court.
These maneuvers had been favorable to the Franks in general, but posed a serious threat to Carloman's position. He had been left without allies: he attempted to use his brother's alliance with the Lombards to his own advantage in Rome, offering his support against the Lombards to Stephen III and entering into secret negotiations with the Primicerius, Christopher, whose position had also been left seriously isolated by the Franco-Lombard rapprochement; but after the violent murder of Christopher by Desiderius, Stephen III chose to give his support to the Lombards and Charlemagne. Carloman's position was rescued, however, by Charlemagne's sudden repudiation of his Lombard wife, Desiderius' daughter. Desiderius, outraged and humiliated, appears to have made some sort of alliance with Carloman following this, in opposition to Charlemagne and the Papacy, which took the opportunity to declare itself against the Lombards.
Carloman died on 4 December 771, at the Villa of Samoussy; the death, sudden and convenient though it was, was set down to natural causes (a severe nosebleed is sometimes claimed as being at fault). At the time of his death, he and his brother Charlemagne were close to outright war, which Charlemagne's biographer Einhard attributes to the miscounsel of Carloman's advisors. Carloman was buried in Reims, but he was reburied in the Basilique Saint-Denis in the 13th century.
Carloman had married a beautiful Frankish woman, Gerberga, who according to Pope Stephen III was chosen for him, together with Charlemagne's concubine, Himiltrude, by Pepin the Short. With Gerberga he had two sons, the older of whom was named Pepin after his grandfather, marking him according to Carolingian tradition as the heir of Carloman, and of Pepin the Short. After Carloman's death, Gerberga expected her elder son to become King, and for herself to rule as his regent; however, Carloman's former supporters - his cousin Adalhard, Abbot Fulrad of Saint Denis and Count Warin - turned against her, and invited Charlemagne to annex Carloman's territory, which he duly did. Gerberga then fled ("for no reason at all") with her sons and Count Autchar, one of Carloman's faithful nobles, to the court of Desiderius, who demanded of the new Pope Hadrian I that he anoint Carloman's sons as Kings of the Franks. Gerberga's flight ultimately precipitated Charlemagne's destruction of the Kingdom of the Lombards; he responded to Desiderius' support of Carloman's children, which threatened Charlemagne's own position, by sweeping into Italy and subjugating it. Desiderius and his family were captured, tonsured, and sent to Frankish religious houses; the fate of Gerberga and her children by Carloman is unknown, although it is possible that they, too, were sent by Charlemagne to monasteries and nunneries.
Despite their difficult relationship, and the events following Carloman's death, Charlemagne would later name his second legitimate son 'Carloman' after his deceased brother. This had, perhaps, been a public gesture to honour the memory of the boy's uncle, and to quell any rumours about Charlemagne's treatment of his nephews. If so, it was swept away in 781, when Charlemagne had his son renamed as Pepin. He had several children with Gerberga. Pepin, Prince of the Franks (bef. 769); unknown son(ca. 770); Kunigunde or Auberge; Ida(ca.768 - ca.820), m.
