Greetings from a Klick Genealogist,
Yes indeed, we are having a Klick reunion on Saturday, September 7 at the Callaway Christinian Church (same location as the 2012 reunion).
I am Dave Klick (Beaverton, Oregon) working with other Klick genealogists on an update of the Klick Family History Notebook (originally published 50 copies in 2002 - now greatly outdated. :)
Our branch of the Klick line is from patriarch Martin Adam Klick, born 24 December, 1808 in Wollin Pommern, Germany and died 19 June 1881 at his home near Stolpe, Missouri.
Martin's parents were Johann Klick born 1764 and Anna Catharina Januschke born 1768. Johann's parents were Paul Klick born 1707 and Dorthea Notke born 1728.
Perhaps you will find a Klick branch match back in the old country. My wife and I were in Germany last month.
Martin, his wife Caroline (Bock) and their nine children sailed from Bremen (or Bemerhaven), Germany in a wooden sailboat Kena Barque Union and arrived in New York on 15 September 1858 and then made their way to Missouri where they settled near Hermann. Those nine children had 103 children and spouses.
In September 2012, at the Klick family reunion, we had descendant representatives from six of the nine children of Martin Adam Klick.
You, and others interested in Klick genealogy, would be welcome to attend the Sept. 7 2013 Missouri Klick reunion. Contact me for detailed information.
