I have a dna match to this line. I am showing that Henry Counts (Coons) was the son of Johann Coons/Kountze? Please look at my Ancestry tree and help me with this line.
I appreciate any insite what so ever.

This is a Germanna immigrant and so the Germanna Foundation has records for him.
Unfortunately these get very mixed up in public trees and as much as I love Ancestry, their "hints" and "Thrulines" sometimes do little to help... Same with FamilySearch since even though they may have free access to records, the records get attached to the wrong profiles.
Geni is my favorite plcae to do genealogy collaboratively.

Tagging Barbara Price, A509195 since this profile is not yet curated and she may be able to offer wisdom.
