I'm looking for any info regarding the following Inabnits/Enabnits, who my wife is descended from:
My father-in-law was Harry William Enabnit, b. Ryan, IA, 02.25.14, d.04.19.90. He was the son of Johannes and Anna (Jossi)Inabnit who emigrated from Grindelwald, Switzerland to IA, and farmed in the Ryan, IA area. Johannes was born in Grindelwald, 02.20.1881. Johannes was the son of Christian and Anna (Bohren)Inabnit. Christian was b. 08.15.1854. Christian was the son of Ulrich and Katherine (Burgunner) Inabnit. Ulrich was b.05.18.1817, d.03.15.1895.
I see from some of the postings I have read that many Inabnits emigrated to the Eastern U.S. in the 1700's. Were they all from the general Grindelwald area ?
Thank you in advance,
Jimmy
