Can anyone tell me more about John/Johannes and Elizabeth Imbody from VA? I believe I have figured out the missing link in my Imbody/Embody line.
The best I can tell when posting the lineage of Daniel Imbody to Adam Imbody most people have assumed that Daniel Imbody born 1779 was the same person as the Daniel Imbody born abt 1804 who married Lydia Hosler . Which I believe is incorrect. If I have this right my line would go as follows:
Daniel Imboden had a son Johann Adam Imboden also referred to as John Adam Imbody born PA 1709 died 1790 (married Catherine).
J.A.I. had a son named Adam Imbody born PA 1746 died 1805 (married Anna Marie Herr )
A.I. had a son named Johannes Imbody also called John Imbody born PA 1770 died ? (married Elizabeth?)
J.I. had son Daniel Imbody born VA abt 1802 died 1848 (who married Lydia Hosler)
D.I. had a son Samuel born OH 1834 died? (Who married Mary Ann Howell)
S.I. had a son Oscar T. Imbody also known as Oscar Embody born IL 1858/9 died 1888. (who married Annie Hynor/Hiener/Hinner.)
O.E. had a son named Charles Samuel Embody born IL 1878 died 1963.
Proof of the connection between Daniel Imbody and John Imbody is on the 1870 MO census where it states that Samuel Imbody's father was from VA. Proof of the Imbody to Embody name change can be confirmed by census as well!
Does anyone out there have any further info on this line of the Imbody family? I would like to compare notes...any help would be appreciated.
