Sherm - My husband, Charles Dennis Horn, descends from Christian Frederick Horn, Sr., through Christian Frederick Horn, Jr. (who married Caroline Mickey), Christian Frederick Horn III (1856-1932), William Henry Horn (1879-1941; married Ella Almira Kime) and William Pershing Horn (1918-1991; married Jeanette Kathryn Dobbins).Our records show that C.F.Sr. had another son named George.
We have a copy of the citizenship application for C.F. Sr. showing that he came from Prussia.From information in this document we have deduced that he was born sometime around 1797.We also have copies of two letters of recommendation in favor of his obtaining U.S. citizenship.
I have had trouble tracking down any definite connections with these ancestors because the families were so large and the descendants are so widely scattered.I think it's interesting that before we ever knew of the existence of Christian Frederick Horn, we had named our first son William Frederick and our second son Christopher (very close to Christian), and our third son and his wife had named their first son Dylan Christian.
Let me know if you can connect us with any other C.F.H. descendants.You may e-mail us direct at [email protected].
