Name on family stone is Engelmann Family, name has many spellings, Engleman, Engelman, which way is correct?
The surname was Engelmann in Kukkus, Samara, Russia, which is where this family came from. However, once in the USA members of the family changed the spelling. This particular guy dropped one n off the end and used Engelman. Today you will find that some lines continue to spell it Engelmann, and others spell it Engelman, Engleman, etc. For purposes of findagrave I would use the spelling the particular person used, as otherwise it won't match the name in death and other records.
