| HI! I AM RESEARCHING HORNBAKER AND ORDWAY FAMILY BACKGROUNDS. I BELIEVE THAT THE HORNBAKERS ARE FROM THE SOUTHWEST AREA OF GERMANY AND MAY HAVE COME TO NORTH AMERICA IN THE LATE 1800'S AND EARLY 1900'S. DEAN FRANKLIN HORNBAKER WAS A DIRECT RELATIVE OF MINE, BUT I KNOW VERY LITTLE ABOUT HIM OTHER THAN HIS BIRTHDAY IS SEPTEMBER 1947 AND HAS BROTHERS MARK, JEFF, AND MIKE. THEIR MOTHER'S NAME IS RUTH AND FAHER'S IS POSSIBLY WOLFGANG. I WOULD LIKE TO KNOW MORE ABOUT THIS SIDE OF THE FAMILY AND MY ANCESTORS. MY MOTHER'S SIDE CONSIST OF NAMES SUCH AS MERKEL, HINGER, BAUDER, DOERR, FERGUSON, AND HALLER. HER SIDE IS GERMANS FROM RUSSIA. THEY WENT TO RUSSIA FROM PFLUIGGEN, GERMANY IN THE LATE 1700'S AND EARLY 1800'S. THEY SETTLED MOSTLY IN SOPHIENTHAL, RUSSIA(SOUTH RUSSIA-UKRAINE) AND FINALLY CAME TO AMERICA IN APPROX. 1906, SETTLING IN SOUTH DAKOTA(BOWDLE-JAVA). I WOULD LIKE TO TACK DOWN COUSINS. MY GREAT-GREAT GRANDFATHERS WERE JACOB MERKEL AND JACOB DOERR. THE ORDWAY SIDE SETTLED IN NEW YORK AROUND THE TURN OF THE CENTURY(1800) POSSIBLY FROM ENGLAND. RICHARD ORDWAY IS MY HUSBANDS FATHER AND WAS BORN IN MAY 1933. HIS FATHER'S AND MOTHER'S NAMES WERE LEWIS AND MILDRED. ANCESTORS OF MY HUSBAND, KRIS, WERE ALSO MANY DUNBARS. I HAVE IT TRACED BACK TO MOSSES DUNBAR WHO DIED MARCH 17,1777(ST.PATRICK'S DAY WILL NEVER BE THE SAME)HE WAS HANGED DUE TO CHARGES OF BETRAIL TO THE CHURCH OF ENGLAND. ANY INFORMATION ON EITHER SIDE OF THE FAMILY WOULD BE GREATLY APPRECIATED!! FEEL FREE TO CONTACT ME FOR ANY INFORMATION THAT HELP TO LINK OUR FAMILIES TOGETHER. IF YOUR A LONG-LOST COUSIN LET ME KNOW I NEED DATES AND PLACES OF BIRTH THAT YOU MAY BE ABLE TO FILL IN THE BLANKS. |
