Thank you for the timely post. TL & Nanabelle were my grandparents. WD died before I was born but I havesome wonderful memories of Greatgrandma Holsapple and her sister, Aunt Cynthy. The timeliness of the post is that my older sister and I are putting together a family history and this fits right in with the Family Stories.

A copy of the pictures would be greatly appreciated. In return I'll see if I can find a 4 generation photo of Holsapple;Hall family.

thanks,

Re: Who are these Holsapples???

I have a William H. Holsapple, born Sept. 1879. He was the son of William Franklin Holsapple and Mary J. Brown. He did have siblings named James A. and Nancy M., and another named Marie or Mary but nicknamed "Bet" (maybe your "Bettie") but I find no sign of the others you mentioned. Acc. to my records, this William H. had the following siblings: Tintia Vian (Diane) b. 1853; Clarrisa E. b. 1857; Katherine Willie (Katy) b. 1863; Sally Ann, b. ca 1878, and Maggie M. b. 1884. Do we have the same William H.?

Re: Family of Cortell King Holsapple

magisterpat — 2007-06-10 13:54:47Z

OK, thank you. Some months ago, someone sent me the following message. "John Wright Holsapple's father was married and in Calloway county, KY in 1850 so it is difficult to trace him backward without additional resources. His name was John Phillip Holsapple and was born about 1828 in Virginia. He married a Mary Ann Wright who was born in Alabama. I suspect that John Phillip was a son of a John Holsapple and was born in Monroe county Virginia, based on an 1830 census. And a grandson of a Phillip Holsapple. There is an Alexander Holsapple in Calloway county in 1850 whom I suspect is an uncle. He is a son of Phillip."
But as the writer pointed out, there is no corroborative evidence so far, nor any evidence to connect these two branches. I have a fairly complete record of the descendents of John Wright Holsapple if that would help you. Let me know.

Re: Family of Cortell King Holsapple

JoelHutto — 2007-06-10 13:16:13Z

I do not know any further back than that on the Holsapple line. I am descended from Nancy Abbott Wright Wicker's sister, Mary Abbott Hendricks. I researched this line because I have a photo of Nancy, as well as a couple of her descendants.

Re: Family of Cortell King Holsapple

magisterpat — 2007-06-10 12:45:49Z

Thanks for the reply, Mr. Hutto. I agree with you on those names. Do you or does anyone happen to who John Phillip Holsapple's parents were? My line of Holsapples comes from Johann Jacob Holsapple, one of the Hessian soldiers, who was married to Catherine Van Meter. He and his family ended up in Clinton Co., KY (before some of them moved on, although some of his descendents are still there). But there seems to be another line of Holsapples who followed the same migratory routes and ended up just a little further west in Kentucky. I am trying to find out whether these two families are related. Perhaps they were descended from Holsapple brothers or cousins who fought in the same Hessian regiments. There were, I believe, three soldiers named Holsapple listed in the ranks but no indication of relationships. Thanks to anyone who can help.

Re: Family of Cortell King Holsapple

JoelHutto — 2007-06-10 04:53:25Z

I have that his parents are John Wright Holsapple and Mahala Faughn who married in Marshall County KY 24 Dec 1879. John Wright Holsapple was the son of John Phillip Holsapple b 25 Sep 1827 VA d 03 Aug 1861 KY and Mary Ann Wright. They married 20 May 1847 in Calloway County, KY, after John's death, Mary Ann Wright married Joseph Miller 29 Sep 1867 in Calloway Co KY

Helena or Lena Holsopple born at sea 1840s/1850s

cbrounce — 2007-02-22 02:13:59Z

I am looking for any information on a Helena/Lena Holsopple (or any of its various spellings) that may have been born at sea. She would have been immigrating to the US from Germany/Bavaria. My information is sketchy, since I'm getting most of it from census information. I'm estimating her year of birth as 1848. She was married to Jacob Brown and lived in Western Maryland at least from 1870 - 1920. In both the 1910 and 1920 census, she is living in Allegany County, MD with her daughter Lilly Parker and family. She probably died after 1920 as she is no longer in the census in 1930. Her other children included Henry, Richard, Caspar, William, Charlotta, Ida, and Mary.

Any help is greatly appreciated as I'm stuck BIG TIME.

Thanks,

Crissy

Re: Margaret Anne Holsapple

dearoldmother — 2007-02-09 23:24:27Z

I am also looking for information on Margaret Ann Holsapple ,born 4-22-06 and her sister Agnes Smith Holsapple, born 2-17-11. Their parents were Frank B. and Nancy Eusebia Smith Holsapple who lived in Galway, Saratoga County, NY. I believe Margaret married Stuart L. Eggerton, born 7-17-1892, d. 4-7-1962. I understand they lived in Albany, NY at one time. Nancy is my husband's grandmother's sister. Frank and Nancy are buried in Galway Cemetery, Galway, NY. I believe Agnes married a man named Paul Miller Kain but can't find anything to assure me of that. Have you found anything more since posting this message?

He arrived in the United States on June 26, 1873. He married Wilhelmenia "Minnie" SCHUCK/SCHOOK (sp?) born October 6, 1844, Berlin, Germany; d. May 1919, Davidson Co., TN)

Children all born in Ohio:
Louis J. HOLZAPFEL (male)
John J. HOLZAPFEL (male)

Who are these Holsapples???

cardsnapper — 2006-09-08 05:15:25Z

Found a picture of 4 siblings. The back of the picture lists their names as.....Jim Holsapple, Bette (Holsapple) Cheek, Nannie (Holsapple) Lane, and Maggie (Holsapple) Salyers. Nannie Lane is supposed to be my husband's grandmother. Does anyone know who these Holsapples' parents are??? We know that they lived in or around Williamson Co. Illinois and they were supposed to have been born in KY.

margerice1 — 2006-04-20 21:10:50Z

I have an original postcard photograph of “Helen May Danielsen – 4 months, 2 days, two teeth”, which I would like to get back to family members. Photo was taken in about 1915, in Lewistown (Fergus Co.) Montana, and Helen is wearing a christening gown.

I found Helen Danielsen in the 1920 census for Fergus Co., MT, age 6, daughter of Alfred Sr. and Hilda Danielson. Montana Death Index shows Helen Danielsen as wife of Ira Holsapple, who had lived in Havre, MT.

Linda,
Yes, thank you. But I would certainly appreciate as muchof the line of John and Ella Belle as you feel safe in divulging (names and dates to avoid confusion). Also, you included the name Bigley on the Holsapple side. I don't recognize that name at all. Who is it? Do you happen to have parents for Sarah Elizabeth Call? Thanks.

At an antique show in Columbus OH I found an old photo with the following written on the back:

Mr and Mrs Webster Holsapple and their daughter Ida
Some of my patrons in No 5 schoool - Dad

I think this is Webster Holsapple (son of George Holsapple and Eliza Weaver) of Montgomery Co Ohio and his wife Effie and daughter Ida. Ida may have married Daniel Eby.
