General Notes: Husband - Martin Mumma

---

He was a farmer and merchant. In early life he and his wife were respected members of the Lutheran church, in which Mr. Mumma was a leader in the choir for about 20 years. Regarding Mrs. Mumma's religious experience, it is related when she was invited to anxious seat, she was much affected, and wept aloud and cried for mercy. The minister came to her and said, "Hush sister, not so loud," but her cries for mercy were soon renewed and the minister came to her again and said, "Hush sister, not so loud, arise the Lord has blest you." She, however, was never satisfied with her conversion. About 20 years later, at a Union meeting of several denominations, she and her husband were brought under deep conviction, and at about twelve o'clock at night she got up out of bed, and said to her husband, "Get up and get on your knees, for if we don't repent we will both go to hell." She was soon converted, and the praising God aroused all in the house out of bed. Prior to this they only had time to have family prayers once a week on Sunday evening, but thereafter they found time twice a day to meet at the family altar.
