Our name appears to originate in the old principality of Lippe-Detmold; the oldest IGI records are from the Evangelical parishes of Talle and of Saint Nicholas, Lemgo. The name may be spelled variously, even within the same household. I hope you'll drop me a line if you have a connection or an interest in our family.

Im researching into my family history. I know that my grandma and great-grandpa were Kluckhohn. Like you, I don't know the exect spelling. My great-grandmothers name when she married became Mary Kluckhohn. Anyway, just thought Id share that.

Hi, Mark! Can you tell me some more about your grandparents? Your grandfather's first name, or where they lived? I show two Mary's who married Kluckhohns since 1900. They married brothers, Ellis and Emil. I know Emil didn't have any kids, soooooo.......

Not sure.

Well, I will dig around and see what I can come up with. What part of the country were those folks in? Are we looking at the past 40 years or the past 80?

SHELDAHL + KLUCKHOHN

Hi, Mark. I have done a little digging and what I've found is this:
Mark Paul Sheldahl born 22 May 1914 at Roland, Story Co., Iowa died 16 April 1968 at Los Angeles, Calif. [There is a problem in that this record shows his mother as "BURKSTRA" when she was JOHNSON. That death date may not be "our" Mark.]
He married Shirley "Kluckholm" 8 Nov 1941 at Boise, Idaho. They had four children: Donald Paul, Anne, Warner and Eddie. Donald married twice: Terri Ann STAFFORD and Dorothy Ellen REDFIELD. He and Dorothy had Amanda Jane, Paxton Reid and Mark Houston. Amanda Jane married Patrick Michael ALLEN and had Samantha Rachelle, Marlie Kanoi and Brendan Patrick. The record I have says she died in 1963. However, California has no death record of her as Sheldahl or Kluckho(hn)(lm). I know only one Shirley in my lines. She was alive, kicking, and married to a STOVER in Riverside Co., California in 1958-81. I have another source I am checking with, but they just had a death in the family and may not reply right away.

Ok, my grandma is Shirley Kluckhohn who married Mark Paul Sheldahl. Her mother was Winifred Kluckhohn(I dont know her maiden name)So maybe that clears some things up on this side.

OK, your father must be Don SHELDAHL, yes?
If you will let me have your e-mail address I will send you what info I have. I can take your line back to Simon KLUCKHOHN, who came over from Germany probably before the Civil War. You are different Kluckhohns than mine, at least as far as we know right now, but we come from the same little area in Germany, not far from Hamelin of the Pied Piper (they call it "Hameln.")
My e-mail address is rhkluckhohn@home.com

Regards,
Bob

Don Sheldahl is my dad.

You guessed it. Donald Sheldahl is my father. My email address is inman.home@verizon.net

Your information would be great since I havent been able to look back farther than my grandpa and his wife. Also, I just found out that my mom's side of the family comes directly from the Mayflower....a gentleman and lady by the name of John Alden and Pricsilla Mullins. So finding more info on my whole family is a blesssing.

Classification: Query
Hi I recently started researching my family's geneology and I just stumbled across this post. My dad's father (William Hinkley) married a Shirley Kluckhohn. They had 2 sons and 4 daughters. I'm told Shirley died in a car crash sometime around 1963. They were living in a small town near Boise, Idaho at the time. I know that she had been previously married, since my dad has mentioned a Warner as a step-relation. Could this be the same person? If so I'd really appreciate any information you have on her, since my dad was very young when she died. Thanks!
