    •      According to information on his World War I draft registration card, filed on 5 June 1917 at Mayview, Lafayette County, Missouri, Martin Herman Fiegenbaum, 22 years old and single, lived on RFD 1, Higginsville, Missouri, where he was a self-employed farmer. There was no one solely dependent on him for support and he claimed no exemption from the draft. The registration card, apparently filled out by somewhere else, spelled Martin's surname "Figenbaum," but Martin's signature clearly shows it spelled "Fiegenbaum." Paul Robertson, the Registrar of the Mayview precinct of the local draft board, described Martin as a man of tall height and medium build; with light blue eyes and light brown hair (not bald). The registration card asked about disabilities; it was noted that Martin was "badly Ruptured."

    •      According to marriage records in Lafayette County, Missouri, William F. Fiegenbaum, of Mayview, Lafayette County, Missouri, and Henriette C. Starkebaum, of Higginsville, Lafayette County, Missouri, received a marriage license at Lexington, Lafayette County, Missouri on 17 October 1893 and they were married at Higginsville, Lafayette County, Missouri on 19 October 1893 by H. F. Hoefer, "a minister of the Gospel."
           A marriage certificate in the family's possession which appears to have been filled out by "H. F. Hoefer, Pastor of Salems [sic] Church, Higginsville, Mo." confirms the documents filed with the county recorder. The certificate further notes that Friederik [sic] Fiegenbaum and Louise Starkebaum were witnesses at the marriage.
           A 'Trauschein' (a German language marriage certificate) issued under H. F. Hoefer's hand on 12 December, 1894 attests to the same details.
           Henriette's obituary in 1960 seems to err in reporting that she was married in 1892.
