VOLUME 3
NO 1 MARCH
1999
IN THIS ISSUE OF DIE
HUCKERE
On page
2 and 3 is an update on Adam Kindsvater's history of the Frick family of Huck.
Submitted by Richard Reider of Laramie, Wyoming.
My
grandfather, Johannes Hoffman had a half brother by the name of Adam Huck. In
1908 Adam, his wife Catherine and children left Lincoln Nebraska and immigrated
to Saskatchewan, Canada. Their son, Edward Huck tells a very interesting story
of his parents years in Canada. Taken in part from "Luseland Hub and Spokes".
A book located in the AHSGR Library.
In reference
to this story, Edward states in the second paragraph that his widowed
mother married John Hoffman. She married Heinrich Hoffman. John (Johannes)
Hoffman was the son from this marriage and my grandfather.
On January
24, my mother moved to a retirement home. From her home I have many issues of
AHSGR publications. On page 6 I have listed these publications which are free
of charge except for postage. They will be mailed as printed matter. Please
write or call me if you wish any of these publications. My name, address, and
telephone number are below.
SHARING
Since the
last issue of "Die Huckere" (December 1997) I received from J. B. and
Marlene Coats a genealogy chart of the SACK family of Huck. From information
gathered from the chart and additional family data they have put together 2
books. Other Huck surnames found on the SACK chart are: Schuckman, Schneider,
Schaaf, Leichner, Kindsvater, Michael, Eckert and Bohl.
From two of my own ancestral charts, I was able
to give J.B. and Marlene data on John Krieger from Norka who married Katherine
Margaret Sack and Elizabeth Kaiser from Donhof who married George Phillip Sack.
J.B. and
Marlene are very willing to share information with you. Or, if you are able to
share information with them as I did. Write them at: 1839 Deep Creek Drive,
Sparks, Nevada 894341762. In the words of J.B. and Marlene "If there were
no sharing, all the past would remain a big dark hole".
Please let us
know if you have any ancestral
charts from HUCK.
