Thanks, Melissa, for your interesting letter today on Mamie Liebendorfer's
descendants. You have some information I didn't have, and vice versa.
I take no credit for what follows. It has all been researched
by my mother, Mamie Liebendorfer's oldest granddaughter through her son
Lester, and others whose documentation Mother has verified. I hope
I'm not repeating things you already know.
Mary Maria Liebendorfer's parents were Samuel R. LIEBENDORFER and Mary
Ann HUFFMAN, who were married 15 Apr 1858 in Quincy, Adams Co., Illinois.
Samuel was born 30 Oct 1831 in Butter Co., Pennsylvania, and died 3 Nov
1870 in Illinois. Mary Ann was born (Spring) 1840 in Quincy, Adams
Co., Illinois, and died Feb 1893 in Illinois. There were 7
children from the marriage: Olive, Mary Maria, Alice, Clarence,
George, Grant and Charles.
Samuel R. LIEBENDORFER was the son of John Jacob LIEBENDORFER III and
Christiana BRENNAMEN. John was born 17 Oct 1797 in Grossglattbach,
Wurtenburg Co., Germany, and died 14 Mar 1880 (where?). They were
married 16 Sept 1847.
Mary Ann HUFFMAN's parents were James HUFFMAN, who was born in Kentucky,
and Hannah ( ), born in 1822. They were married in Virginia.
John Jacob LIEBENDORFER III was the son of Johann Jacob LIEBENDORFER
[junior], who was born 17 Apr 1766, and Anna Christina WEINGERTNER, who
was born 4 Mar 1773.
Johann Jacob LIEBENDORFER [junior] was the son of Johann Jacob LIEBENDORFER
[senior], who was born in 1730, and Agnes Maria KUHNLIN, who was born in
1736.
Anna Christina WEINGERTNER was the daughter of Michael WEINGERTNER
and
Eva RUOPP.
Johann Jacob LIEBENDORFER [senior] was the son of Hans Jacob LIEBENDORFER,
who was born 20 Nov. 1700 in Grossglatbach, Wurtenburg, Germany, and who
died 14 Jun 1729, and his wife Rosina HAUG, who was born 21 Feb 1707.
Agnes Maria KUHNLIN was the daughter of Johannes KUHNLIN and Anna Maria
SPIELMAN.
Hans Jacob LIEBENDORFER was the son of Hans Conrad DUBENDORFER, who was born 17 Sept 1669 and died 30 Sept 1750, and Anna Marie ILMER.
Hans Conrad DUBENDORFER was the son of Rudolph DUBENDORFER, who died in 1694, and his wife Anna Margareta ( ).
Rudolph DUBENDORFER was the son of Felix DUBENDORFER [junior], who died in 1614, and his wife Verona FRETZ, who died in 1617.
Felix DUBENDORFER [junior] was the son of Hans DUBENDORFER, who died in 1584, and his wife Barbara HINDERMEISTER, who died in 1592.
Hans DUBENDORFER was the son of Felix DUBENDORFER [senior], who died in 1550, and his wife Catherine BENZ. Felix's father died in 1528, his mother in 1532. We don't yet know there names.
That's the end of what I know of Mother's research on the Liebendorfer
line.
Melissa, there are some minor changes in the descendants you list for Mamie and William Jefferson. Unfortunately, it is 11:30 p.m., and I must rise early in the morning. So I will save those for a later post, and plan to get back to you within a day or so.
Thanks for writing back. It was a pleasure to hear from you. Talk with you again soon.
