Hello to all you Snyder county rooters, My name is Ken Boonie and I have many ancestors from the Snyder county area. Most are in the McClure area, but are scattered about. I am trying my best to find all of them. I feel confident that lists such as this will provide vital information to all of us. There are several variations to the Boonie name. Those which I have discovered are Boonie, Booney, Boney and Bony. My gggrandfather was Christian Boonie who was married to Louise Clementine Bingamen. Just today, I was given info on Louise's parents, Frederic and Elizabeth (Heetig) Bingamen. I will need some help with this. If anyone knows Louises' siblings, I would be very grateful. Christians' parents were Israel Boney and Mary (Warner) Boney. I have been informed that Mary's last name could have been Varner. I need some help with that as well. I know nothing of her except she was b. 12/10/1830. Israel was the son of Christian Boney, b. 12/4/1789, and Julia Keiser, b. 1791. I have siblings of Christian, but nothing on Julia. Christian was the son of Christopher Bony, b. ??, and Eva Humlin or Hummel. Originally, I was told Hummel, but according to FTM cd Church Records: Selected areas of PA, it was Eva Humlin. I have this cd and will be more than happy to do lookups. I also have FTM World Family Tree, Volumes 1&2 and Social Security Death Index, cd 110. I will do lookups on all. I am a resident of Huntingdon, Huntingdon county and maintain the Huntingdon County page of the US GenWeb project. That about sums it up. Hope I didn't bend your ear too much. Already, from this list I have been fortunate to find information (thanks, Kathy) and look forward to helping all I can to make this list benefit everyone as it has me. Looking forward to talking to you all. -- Ken Boonie Coordinator USGenWeb Project Huntingdon County PA http://www.rootsweb.com/~pahuntin/
