Holsan and Renner FamiliesUpdated May 29, 2010 | We are researching the HOLSAN/HOLSSAN Family. John Holsan was born in Bratislava, Bohemia (Czechoslovakia) April 12, 1872. He immigrated to the US in 1892, landing at Ellis Island. He married Mary or Marie VOSIKA in Lodgepole, NE in 1900. Mary was the daughter of James Vasclav VOSIKAand Katherine BERKOVSKY. She was born in Wilber, NE January 2, 1882. Her parents were from Bohemia. Related families to this line include WOSYKA/WOSIKA, WENZL/WENZEL, WANISKA/WANITSHKA, MOLLET, KOHN, BLECHA, GRUBE, HALL, MORGAN, LELAND, HENSEY, SMITH-REDFIELD, AND HESSLINGER/HESSLING. We are also doing research on two separate RENNER lines. One can be traced back to Hagerstown, MD to the early 1800's. This branch descends from a Philip RENNER and Margaretha (Unknown). Families connected to this line include LONGENECKER, DITSWORTH, GREGGERSEN, and CARR. The second line originated in Hohenöllen, Germany in the early 1700's. This branch immigrated to the US in the mid 1800's, settling first in PA, then IN. Our particular branch finally settled in southern IL. Some of the families connected to this line include KELLER, FRITZ, DAUM, BAER, BENSE, RALL, GUKER, and MILLER. Another line of our research involves the CARR family of VA and IL. This line descends from Joseph CARR born March 21, 1752 inVA. Joseph was married to Priscilla SHOOK. Families connecting to this line include HOFFMAN, PHILLIPS, WARING, SMITH, and GREGGERSEN. Daniel Morgan born about 1893 in NY married Anginette FIRMAN of Ontario, Canada. This is a newly discovered line that we are still working on. Some of the names connected to this family include SMITH, HESSLING/HESSLINGER, and HALL.
