My husband's family is descended from Mary Ann Himebrook and John S. Simons of Greene County. Mary Ann was his second wife and together they had 10 children, 2 of which died in infancy. She is the daughter of William and Louisa Neal Himebrook, who originated from Prussia; Mary Ann at least was born there, too. At the time of the 1860 Census, they lived in Stockton Township/Linton Post Office. These are the ones I extracted from that census:

Charles E. Himebrook, age 26, born Germany
Mary, age 21, born Indiana
William A., age 2/12 or 4/12, born Indiana

Rebecca Himebrook, age 12, born Indiana
Joseph Himebrook, age 10, born Indiana
Stephen Himebrook, age 8, born Indiana
Mary Himebrook, age 4, born Indiana (She married John Carpenter in Greene County)
Frederick M. Himebrook, age 1, born Indiana (his name was on next page 516)

William Himebrook, age 60, born Prussia Germany
Louisa (nee Neal), age 50, born Prussia Germany
William, age 21, born Prussia Germany
Milton, age 10, born Indiana
Sarah, age 8, born Indiana

William and Louisa Neal Himebrook’s children were:
Mary Ann (Mrs. John S. Simons), William C., Milton, Sarah J., John M., Louisa, and T. W.

In Grant Township, Village of Switz City, Greene County, Indiana, there is a Himebrook Cemetery and Mary Ann’s brothers John M. and William C. Himebrook are buried as Civil War Veterans. There is also WWII Veteran burial for Merrill Himebrook in the Walnut Grove Cemetery.

In the RootsWeb database they are 20 Cemetery listings for Himebrooks in Clinton County, Iowa.
