This Home Page is created in hope that lost branches of the Warnica Family Tree can be included. If you have any additions to the tree they would be greatly appreciated.
The Tree goes back to The birth of GEORGE FREDERICK HANNING WERNECKE of Schleswig-Holstein, Denmark in 1764. After some years of travelling the world he settled in the town of Manlius (lot 97 plan 62) S.E. of Salina (Syracuse) New York and married a German women, Catherine Wolff. Daughter of Michael Wolff and granddaughter of John Wolff of Cosby Manor NY. This was Catherine's second marriage, the first was to a Captain Myers. As a youth , Catherine Wolff, was raised by the Peter Wolver family after an Indian massacre that killed her family. Catherine and her grandmother were two of few survivors of an Indian massacre in the Mohawk Valley about 1780. George & Catherine had four sons , John Christian Warnick, George Frederick Warnica , Joseph Gottleib Warnica and William Daniel Warnica. After the war of 1812 they all moved to Markham, Ontario Canada in 1815 , (including Catherine's son, David Myers in 1830) and on to the Barrie , Ontario area. John Christian Warnick eventually returned to the states in the Wisconsin area and Joseph Gottlieb Warnica also moved his family to the states in the Michigan area. Both Joseph and his son Joseph Jr. joined in the Cival war as well as Charles Manson Warnica (listed as Charles Manson Warnicz), the son of George Frederick Warnica. Joseph's family moved to Kansas after the Civil war and their descendents are now through Texas, New Mexico, California & Oregon.
Any additions to the tree would be appreciated. As well any information on the family of Catherine Wolff, the massacre or information of the Myers family in NY state. The Myers were from the Utica area in the 1790s and in the Manlius NY area by 1806.
