This is a Message Board Post that is gatewayed to this mailing list. Surnames: Hoover Classification: Query Message Board URL: http://boards.ancestry.com/mbexec/msg/rw/kUB.2ACE/1340.1364.1.2.2.1 Message Board Post: I am not familiar w/ Abraham, however, I have three Hoover contacts who may can help. I will forward your message to them. Our line descends from immigrant Andrew Hoover (Huber) s/o Gregor Jonas H. Andrew lived in Miry Springs MD before coming to Randolph Co NC. He lived on the Uwharrie River in NW part of the county. His son Jonas also lived on that land. About 1802 so all the family moved to IN except for two sons, my Jonas and Jacob. Each line has their own reunion in Asheboro in the summer. I have a contact in PA who descends from the ones who migrated north. The Hoovers were from Oberkulm Switzerland.
