I am trying to find the parents of my great, great, great grandfather John Dehoff born June 7, 1795, died May 28, 1876.
He was married to Anna Maria (Polly or Mary) Hartman born Dec., 28, 1809, died July 30, 1882. I have visited their grave and tomb stone at the Canadochly Luthern Church on East Prospect Rd., Lower Windsor Township, York Co. and confirmed both the birth and death dates on the tomb stone.
I researched two possibilities for his parents:
1) John (Johannes) Dehoff born May 7, 1765, died May 27, 1844 was married to Elisabeth Henny. They had a son Johanes (John) Dehoff, but his birth date is Jan., 27, 1791 per the St. Jacob's (Stone) Union Church in Brodbecks, York Co.
2) George Philip Dehoff born Nov., 15, 1761, died Sept., 1832 was married to Anna Margaretha Weigel then to Louise Krack. George and Louise had a son Johannes (John) Dehoff., but he was born Feb., 29, 1796 per the St. Jacob's (Stone) Union Church in Brodbecks, York Co.
John Dehoff's son,John Henry Dehoff, my great, great grandfather born Sept., 21, 1832, died Aug., 17, 1907 was married to Lydia Hartman born August 17, 1845, died Sept., 30, 1925.
My great grandfather is Jacob Ellsworth Dehoff, married to Anna Rebecca Shirey.
My grandfather is Norman Sylvester Dehoff, married to Susan Irene Naylor.
My father is Richard Sylvester Dehoff, married to Henrietta Melvina Sawmiller
Any help as the the parents of John dehoff (1795 - 1876) would be appreciated.
Don Dehoff
