Does anyone have any information on John Bonner b. 1745 or so in ENG and married, supposedly, "lady (Deliah') Deane" possibly, in, some say Boston, MA he was in VT and moved to Oneida Co., NY about 1780. There is vague information out there, but I have not found anyone who has any sources to quote or can say where some of the information has come from. I would like to know a bit more about this gentleman, and eventually about his son Jeremiah BONNER's children's names, but I am interested to know more about this John BONNER and his story. I don't think his wife was born in NY but could be wrong, any information appreciated: He had the following family (quoted from (quoted from http://homepages.rootsweb.com/~lgillins/banks/aqwg06.htm - Lois & Gerald Gillins website) John BONNER was born 1745 in , , ENG.

F v Polly BONNER <aqwg02.htm> was born about 1780. F vi Sarah BONNER <aqwg118.htm> was born 1792/1799. M vii BONNER. 60. John BONNER was born 1745 in England. He was the immigrant from England to America. He was enlisted to fight against the colonists, but soon joined the American Army. After the war he settled in Floyd, near Rome, New York. He lived to be 102 or 104 years of age and is said to be the ancestor of all Bonners in America.. He died 1849 in Orwell, Oswego, New York. John married DEAN(E) about 1770 in Boston, Massachusetts, USA.

Hi Pat and list members: Wow, this is the best news yet....my David G. BANNER from Washington County, Pa. has been a dead end and now I will pursue the various other forms of the name. Thank you so much, June

Christopher Boner is my name. I live in LaGrange, Ga., but came from North Alabama. My grandfather (Christopher C. Boner) came from Nashville, Tenn. His father and two uncles came from Germany in 1898 and settled originally in Macon, Ga. You may get info. there. Good luck. Chris

Hi to June and all list members, The accepted variations include Banner, Bonney, Bonnet, Bohner, Bonaire (9th Century french), Bonar, Boner, Bonner, Bonnar and others.

I am one of those people with Boners in my family line. They were here in LA. Thibodaux to New Orleans. The name started out as Bonner in 1805 in Pa. but changed here in the south. I think many names do that as they depended on the census taker to make what they could of hearing and writing the name when those who owned the name could not read or write.

I am not sure I have ever seen that surname. That is not to say there were not any - it is just that I have never seen it. I suppose that the proper surname BONNER was spelt BONER on many occasions. Furthermore, given uncertainties and the like, and difficulties in transcription, with typographical errors to boot, the name I have found as Bonner, Boner, Bahner, and even Barner and Beemer, among others. So I can say nothing about BONERs in Georgia, but I can tell you about some BONNERs in Georgia, since one group of them is "mine". My BONNER immigrant to Georgia was William BONNER, sometimes aka "Billy". He was the founder of the Methodist Episcopal Church at Standing Rock, which is near the Georgia/Alabama line. He is listed in the Troup County, Georgia 1850 census. You can find close relatives of that family (on varying dates) in at least Troup, Hancock, Jones, and Monroe Counties, Georgia, among probably others. If you are interested in that family, I am happy to write more about them, but for the moment, it is probably easier for you to just look them up on RootsWeb WorldConnect.

Hi Listmates: I keep seeing the Bonner surname as being mostly English. Does anyone out there have any Bonner ancestors that were French? My g-grandfather, Alfred Bonner's father (John Boner) was French and was French Canadian born somewere around 1841 - 44. (Several vital records I have show different year of birth so not sure) I guess he wasn't sure either. Sandy Williams

Where did Elisha Bonner come from? My 6th Great Grandfather Elisha Bonner married Alice Rose in Bradninch, Devon, England in 1771. Elisha Bonner was listed as a sojourner (a travelling worker?) in the parish records. While there are other Bonners in Devon I have so far been unable to find any record of the birth of Elisha Bonner. The only reference I have been able to find prior to 1771 for an Elisha Bonner in England, is the coroners report for an Elisha Bonner (the Elder) who died in St Pancras 1769. I have not been able to obtain this report yet. Circumstantially it appears quite possible that Elisha Bonner originally came from London,as two of his sons an Elisha and a Samuel appear to have moved from Devon to London in the early 1800's. There appear to be a number of Bonner birth/marriage references in the IGI in the church of Old Church St Pancras. I wonder if there is any Bonner researcher out there who has any information on the origins of Elisha Bonner or the Bonners who used Old Church St Pancras, London.
