I am related to all the Himebrooks that were in Clinton County Iowa. My gr gr gr grandfather was John Himebrook Sr. He was born 1802/03. His wife's name was Margaret. I do not know how many children they had, but one son, John Jr. was my gr gr grandfather. John Jr. was born in 1841 in Erie County, NY. John Jr. married Paulina Radtke in 1866 in NY State. They moved to Clinton County Iowa about 1875.
I have alot of obits and census records of this Himebrook family in case anybody would like copies.
I have always wondered if John Himebrook Sr. was related to William Frederick Himebrook.
In the 1895 State Census for Clinton County Iowa, I actually found two Himebrook families. One I had never seen a trace of in any record before or after that census year. This family is as follows: John Himebrook and wife Mary. Chilren: Henry, Lizzie, Albert, Catherine, John Jr. and Minnie
Unfortunately, Their ages are unreadable on my copy.
If anybody can shed some light on this Himebrook family or how John HimebrookSr. fits in, I would appreciate any help. I would be happy to share what I have.
