    1. Re: [PAELK] HAU - KERSEY - 1800 to 1950
    2. Tom - Beer's "History of the Counties of McKean, Elk..., etc." page 762 has this info: "Andrew Hau, farmer, P. O. Kersey's, was born in Fox township, Elk Co., Penn. November 4, 1859, a son of Andrew and Walbergh (Heigle) Hau, natives of Bavaria, Germany, who emigrated to America about the year 1843. They were married in this country and settled on a farm in Fox township. The mother died September 28, 1872, and the father in 1884. The latter was a prominent Democrat, and filled various township offices, and was also a member of the Catholic Church. Their family consisted of nine children, three of whom are living: John A. (of Fox township), Andrew and Teressa (wife of Allois Urmann, of Kersey, Penn.). Andrew Hau received an ordinary education, and has been principally engaged in farming. Since 1887 he has acted as proprietor of the German House, at Kersey. He is a Democrat in politics, a member of the Catholic Church, and of St. Boniface Society." Hope this helps. Sandy
