Much too quiet on the list, so this should create some activity. Need some details on a 1710 Palatine immigrant: Nicholas Bohnenstiel/Bonesteel, born 1689. Ancestorial home: 6759 Nußbach, Rhineland, Germany Father: Niclaus Bohnenstiel, born about 1664 Mother: Susannah Elizabeth, born about 1664 Looking for: Complete birth date for Nicholas Siblings names and birth dates: Surname for his first wife -- Anna Catharina ??????? name could be Haasen or variation of, and birth date. She was also from Nußach. Listed birth date of 1693 is suspect. Birth date for first child Johannes Michael born 1705, sponsors were Peter Haasen and wife Anna Elisabetha [his second child was Johannes Nicholas, born 26 Oct. 1707] Wife and both children died in 1710 or shortly after arrival in New York. I suspect that death of 1 son was onboard ship. Trying to locate book "Eastern View Cemetery, West Camp NY" for clues on this. Possibilty that 1st listed child, Anna Elizabetha, of Nicholas and 2nd wife Anna Margaretha Kuntz, may actually be child of 1st wife with birth complications causing her death. Birth date of 17 Feb 1712 or 1713 opens up this possibility. Marriage to Anna Margaretha is listed as 25 March 1712. Any information out there to fill in blanks or clarify things? Thanks Dave Rinsem
It appears that you've researched Jones' books. If not, give me a shout.

Hi Jim, Yes to Hank Jones books and a bunch of other places found on the magic box. Also looking for the elusive "real" parents of Almon Bonesteel of Grafton, who was born in 1846 and married Harriet "Lottie" Rogers. Any ideas or info on him would be appreciated. Living relatives [my wife's cousins ] of him have no idea. Thanks for the reply Dave Rinsem Jim Groat wrote:
