Hofers: Switzerland 1850's (Alejandro, Luisa, Paul, Alex, Ana, Ferdinand, Selma)
I'm hoping for any information on a branch of the Hofer family from Switzerland.
The farthest back relatives we believe are Alejandro and Luisa Hofer. We don't have birth or death dates, but we think their birthdates would have been around 1850, both somewhere in Switzerland.
We believe they have at least six children:
Paul E Hofer (1878-1916)
Alexander Hofer
Anna (or Ana) Hofer
Ferdinand Hofer
Selma Hofer
Paul married Emma Dietrich upon arriving to the US, the split up, and he later married Irene Josphina Plantaz. Irene emigrated with Alice from France by way of Cuba. They had two children: Alexander F Hofer (1906-1980) and Leonila Elisa Luisa "Alice" Hofer (1902-?). Alice disappeared shortly after 1920. Alex and Alice started using the Hoffer spelling.
Any information on the family would be greatly appreciated!!!
Thanks!
