Hi, Candy: I'm not directly descended from the Bahn family of York County, but am descended from the Bohn family. My oldest identified ancestor is Philip Jacob Bohn, b. 1732, d. abt 1780. I've often wondered if there's some connection. In an article from the York Dispatch (mar. 11, 1933), the author says there are two York County Bahn/Bohn families. . ."one predominantly Lutheran which settled in teh vicinity of Glen Rock and which orignially spelled the name Bohn [mine}; and the other family, predominantly of the Reformed church, which took up land in the Kreutz Creek valley. To the best of our knowledge the two are not relatedl; our article will trat the Bahns of the Kreutz Creek settlement." If you'd like a copy of the article, let me know your snail mail address and I'll send it. I also have a Bahn family history (4 pages), author unknown. It's a history of Johann Nicholas Bahner. I also have "Annals of The Bahn Family", author was the gre-grandson of John Henry Bahn. I have family charts for some of the descendents of Henry Kaluss or Johan Nikolaue Bahn (1680-1740) Many of these papers came from Carole Bahn, via Marian Bohn Sperry. I have a note on Cassandra Bahn, who md Henry Strickler. My line also married into the Strickler family, so perhaps that's a connection. Also records on Elizabeth Bahn md. Matthias Blausser; Hannah Bahn md. John Sheffer; Henry Bahn md. Maria Dosch; Henry Bahn md. Liddie Bortner; Valentine Bohn adn Nicholas Bahn, Levi Bahn, son of John Bahn and Polly Schwartz; Jacob Henry and Samuel Bahn land record; will of Eliz. Bahn, died 1894. My Bohn line goes thus: Philip Jacob Bohn (b. 1732, d abt 1780) md. Maria Elizabeth Johann Valentine Bohn (c. 1759-1814), md. Catharine Hollinger Valentine Bohn (1793-1854) md. Barbara Strickler (dau. of Henry and Anna Rhode Strickler Adam Bohn (1817-1881) md. Hannah Stouffer Emmert Frank Carlos Bohn (1869-1928) md. Wilda Jennie Knapp Carl Frank Bohn (1895-1988) md Pearl Lavonne Gilbert Coila Genevieve Bohn (1920) md. C. Melvin Kleinhenn Lois Kleinhenn (1940) md. C. Danny Lanier David Lanier (1988) Would be happy to send any information which would be helpful.

Dear List, My grandfather was Emil Lawrence Bahn who was born in Cape Girardeau, Mo in 1884. His father George William Bahn was born in Germany. Is anybody searching this family? Bob Reese, Tucson, AZ

Hi, Is there anyone who might know about Philemon Bohannon who married Elizabeth Gaines? I found him on the 1790 census for Stokes Co., NC and he later moved to TN. I am looking for his parents. I have been told it might be James Bohannon who was married to a Frances. I found them in Stokes Co., NC also. The family may have originated in VA. No amount of information would be to small. Appreciate anything. Thank You, Sharon Klecker Huntington Beach, CA. slklecker@juno.com

Hello !!! There is a house on the island Bornholm south of Sweden that have iron letters on the stone wall, it says: BOHN. Does anyone know anything about this. I saw this on my vaccation this summer and I have a picture of it. I will scan it and email you soon. I mean Bornholm sounds like Bohnholm, maybe we got an island by our own. Best Regards Peter Bohn

I just got a message from a woman who has an e-mail address similar to mine, and she has been receiving some of my messages. Her address is <lois@wam.umd.edu>. Please note the similarity to mine: loisl@wam.umd.edu (that's loisL, as in Lanier) If you've sent me a message and haven't heard from me, perhaps the message went to the wrong person. Try again! BTW: Soon my address will change, so the whole problem will resolve itself. I'll let everyone know when my address changes.

Apparently, another spammer has been hitting on our lists again. In order to prevent this from happening to our mailing list--and driving all crazy--I have changed the "rules" which the server will accept. For your purposes, this means that only people who are subscribed to the list will be able to post messages to the list. If you try to post to the list (with a modified address, for example) and it doesn't work, let me know and I'll subscribe your alternate address. This is a preventative measure. We don't want another crash like with had with MAISER (our former server). Let's hope it works without too many inconveniences for all of us.

Hi, All: Just a note to let you know that I will be in Russia on business from June 11 - July 3. I don't anticipate any problems with the list. However, if you do have difficulties, try to post a question to the list. I think there are several people who have experience with rootsweb lists. I'm sure they'd be glad to help you. My 8-year-old and I leave Wednesday and arrive in Frankfurt at 7 a.m. on the 12th. Then we fly to Samara, Russia. Wish I had more time in Germany, but we only have one day on the return trip--sigh. I'll be in touch with you all again when I return (since e-mail is erratic in the city where I'll be.)

Check out Carsten Bohn's homepage at http://www.bignot.de/personal.html Carsten, I tried to check out your CD's here in the Washington, DC area! But, alas, no luck? What's the genre? R&B? Jazz? Bluegrass? Opera (good grief!)? Does anyone distribute them in the area? Does anyone else out in BOHN-L land know of/have a BOHN homepage?

Hi, Although there are no direct ancestors in my lineage with the Bohn surname, I have a 5th cousin with that surname who lives in Gamshurst, Baden. His lineage came from Oberbruch. Unfortunately, I haven't been able to match up your Bohn's with the ones in Gamshurst or Oberbruch. You may have some luck in Leiberstung because Joseph Bohn, who settled in Oberbruch had a notation by his name that his father, Michel was "von Leiberstung". I have the name "Knab" in my ancestry. They are from Unzhurst (up the road from Gamshurst) The other two surnames i'm not familiar with. Good luck...if you have questions, I will be more than happy to help if I can. Write: TAllgeyer@aol.com I reside in Cincinnati. Our baseball needs lots of help,too.!!!!

Welcome back to the BOHN discussion! A couple of pieces information about Rootsweb and how it is different than MAISER (our former server): You don't need to subscribe again to the discussion list; if you received this message, you are already subscribed. If you receive this message two times, let me know. That means you are probably subscribed twice. TO REPLY TO A MESSAGE WHICH HAS BEEN POSTED: The default for Rootsweb is to reply directly to the sender, but NOT to the entire group. If you want to respond to a message which has been sent to the group and you want the entire group to read it, you will need to send a new message to BOHN-L@rootsweb.com. I think there is a way to override this option. However, I prefer to see how everything is running before I start changing all the defaults. Let's give it a few weeks. IS ANYONE ON THIS LIST A ROOTSWEB LISTOWNER? Would you be willing to tend this list while I'm out of the country? {I'll reciprocate!} Lois Kleinhenn Lanier Listowner: Bohn Family Genealogy List Kleinhenn Family Genealogy List Lanier Family Genealogy List Sisler Family Genealogy List
