Since the Family Tree Maker home pages are being de-activated, I have transferred all my data to another site, which is much easier to keep current. For the most up-to-date YAWMAN family information, see my YAWMAN FAMILY AND ALL RELATED LINES family tree at Ancestry.com, which also incorporates other surnames of interest to me -- ADMIRE, CLARY, GOWER, RAMEY, SITTERLY, and many more. 
The YAWMAN name is unique and rare.Most YAWMANS in America are descended from five brothers who, along with their parents and two sisters, chose to leave the rest of their family in France and come to America.Although a German-speaking family, they emigrated from the Lorraine region of France in 1831, entered the United States at the Port of New York, and quickly settled in Rochester, New York.The parents of the seven children died of cholera in Rochester soon after arrival, in about 1832.There is evidence that some members of the family lived in the Schenectady area for a time, before eventually settling in Rochester.
There is also evidence that a Russian family named Yawman immigrated to New York in the late 1800's. However, no connection has been found between this family and the Rochester Yawmans.
The YAWMAN name has been seen in early French and Rochester Catholic records variously spelled as JAMON, JAMAN, JAMANN, JOMAN, YAMON, et al.The name was anglicized to its current spelling very early after arrival in the United States, although a few early families in Rochester spelled the name as YEOMAN.
The YAWMAN Family information,first published here in February, 2001, included data compiled by myself and cousin Harry HEISLEIN over many decades. I would like to acknowledge and thank Harry, an exellent and meticulous researcher, for his numerous contributions to my YAWMAN Family database, and for greatly expanding the family tree first begun by his father many years ago.

Left: signed on the upper tube Ernst Gundlach and the lower tube Yawman & Erbe, Rochester N. Y. Right: Signed Yawman & Erbe, Rochester N. Y. on the tube It is presumed that the example on the right is a later version of the Nonpareil microscope since it has a number of improvements among which are the addition of the drawtube, the focusing mirror mounting, an auxiliary glass stage with slide carrier, and a different casting for the base having an elongated rear leg which, presumably, results in improved stability when the instrument is inclined.

The Nonpareil MicroscopeYawman And Erbe DeskThis instrument is designed to furnish a very complete microscope at a very low price. It is handsome and of good workmanship. The foot, pillar and arm are of iron, neatly japanned. The foot is a tripod of new design. The stand has a good rack and pinion, and micrometer screw adjustment. The latter is worked by a milled head on top of the pillar. The pillar has an Inclination joint which permits the body to come nearly to a horizontal position.The stage is of brass, circular, and it allows the greatest obliquity of light. It has removable spring clips, and, as a part of it, a sub-stage ring of standard size to receive accessories, fitting into which there is a revolving diaphragm. The ring is slotted for oblique illumination. The stage is so constructed that it may be removed, and a glass stage with slide carrier put on in Its place.Yawman And Erbe File CabinetThe mirror-bar swings above the stage to any desired position, and it is graduated into five-degree spaces. It carries plane and concave mirrors, the latter being two Inches in diameter, and at the proper distance from the object in any position.The stand has a large tube, but its proportions are not displeasing. The sliding part of the body, the mirror-bar, and the mirror-arm are nickle-plated. The edge and under-side of the stage are dead black, while the upper surface is polished. The stand is thirteen inches or more in height, when arranged for use, and is equipped with a one inch eye-piece, a 2/3 and one inch objective, giving magnifylng powers of 99 and 154 diameters. After the termination of his employment by Bausch & Lomb in 1878, Ernst Gundlach, for a brief period, worked with Philip Yawman and Gustav Erbe (also former employees of Bausch & Lomb) in the production of microscopes. It is clear that it was Gundlach who produced the optics, but it is less clear which firm actually manufactured the stands. Yawman & Erbe primarily were involved in the manufacture of office furniture and manufactured microscopes for only a very brief period in the early 1880's. While the furniture produced by the firm is now rather common, the microscopes are far less so. The early history of the Yawman & Erbe firm has been documented. Yawman And Erbe Mfg Co History As indicated in the two separate advertisements shown above both firms sold the same model microscopes and as illustrated with the microscope shown on the left above, some instruments actually bear dual signatures. The storage cases for these two microscope are identical as are the storage cases for some other Gundlach and Yawman & Erbe microscopes in this collection ( look here and here ).
