This is a Message Board Post that is gatewayed to this mailing list. Surnames: CRIST, CHRISTE, HOOVER Classification: Query Message Board URL: http://boards.ancestry.com/mbexec/msg/rw/gFC.2ACI/1383 Message Board Post: I'm trying to research the origin of my CRIST family roots. I recently discovered that my great-great grandfather, David Crist, his wife Ellen Hoover Crist, and their children William, James, Harry, and Irwin, lived in Rock Creek, Dunn County, Wisconsin. I'm still unable to locate any further information on this family. I do have evidence that David Crist's parents were born in Pennsylvania, but beyond that, I have no further information. If anyone knows of the origin of the Crist/Christe family surname, please e-mail me. Thank you.
