Liz: I was (unexpectedly) able to go the LDS Family History Center tonight - and was able to find information for you on the two films I mentioned. Andreas J. Hiserodt, physician in Union, Hardin, Iowa (from film #0000240, item 2, p. 178) b. 4 Feb 1807 d. 1 Nov 1893 m. Elizabeth Bushnell Children: Ambrose m. _____, had children Jennie & Effie George B. Andrew (your Andrew M.) Allen Hannah m. ____ Wood Sara m. ____ Crocker Elizabeth m. ____ Wilbur Esther Ann m. Benj. Folsom (sp?) William Henry b. 4 Nov 1834 m. Hannah B. Leinniger, 12/6/1860 Andreas J. was son of John I. Hiserodt (from film #0000240, item 2, p. 158) b. 10 Oct 1765 m. Margaret Stickles (she b. 8 Aug 1775) John I. was son of Johannes Hiserodt (from film #0000239, item 2, p. 130) b. 31 May 1741 d. 1820 m. (1) Catharine Miller (she b. ~1739, d. 1804) (2) Joanna Miller, ne Shook Johannes was son of Hendrick Huyraadt (from film #0000239, item 2, p. 4) m. (1) Anna Maria Cramer in ~1735 (2) Christina Burden (sp?) Hendrick Huyraad (Hoysradt) probably came from Germany in 1710 and settled in East Camp (now called Germantown), Columbia County, NY. This entry references Vedder Church records. (from film #0000239, item 2, p. 4) There's much more information on these films about siblings, where they lived, ..., so you may want to order in these films at your local LDS Family History Center. Hope this helps.

There is a film at the LDS Family History Centers that covers the Hoysradt line: #239 & 240, "Hoysradt/Streibel Genealogy". I don't know if your ancestor will be on the films or not. Just thought I'd volunteer this, since the same two films have Silvernail genealogy, and that's my line. I have the two films on indefinite loan at the local LDS FHC. If I have time & remember, I'll try to look up your Andrew the next time I get there.

Query Forum Reply Here: http://cgi.rootsweb.com/~genbbs/genbbs.cgi/USA/NY/Columbia/11825 Surname: Hiserote ------------------------- Looking for Andrew Hiserote or Andris Hiserote. My husband gggrandpa. saettled in Iowa and then to Nebraska from Columbia Co, New York. We have very little information from the life span in New York. Do not know what Country they came from but assumes Germany. Andris J. Hiserote was born 4 Feb 1808 and was married to Elizabeth Bushnell. We believe his son Andrew M. Hiserote was also born in Columbia Co. NY. Any help would be appreciated. Liz in South Dakota
