      This is also from Bessie Cook-Rothrock:
      KLINGAMAN HISTORY
      The Klingaman name came down to us with Cornelius Klingamn, from Germany.
      This name still exists in Germany and is spelled Klingamants. Pronunciation
      is Kling-ah-man. Foreign names in the United States go through two changes,
      either a translation, as Schwartz to Black, Weiss to White, or the spelling
      becomes Anglicized as Schwartz becomes Swartz or Swarts, and Weiss becomes
      Wise. Another change is apt to occur by spelling the German pronunciation in
      English.
      So we lost somewhere a final N from Mann because of the English spelling of
      'man'. Later some Klingaman settled in a Yankee settlement and the Yankees
      were unable to pronounce his name correctly, saying KlingERman, which in
      time became the spelling there. (Yankees still say 'Idear for Idea).
      A man who came from Bovania, Germany, said his name was spelled Klingamann
      in Germany and that the Klingamanns came from Switzerland in 1650.
