ORIGINS OF UHAN

If you have the name of UHAN this will be of
interest to you. Jacob Johengen Jr.
married Barbara Gurney either here or in
Germany ( Prussia .) Jacob came to Ellis
Island in 1836. Together they had 12 or 14 kids.
Jacob Johengen the third was born in 1848,
most likely in North Collins, New York.
In 1876 he married Eleanor Brown. They moved
to Caro, Michigan and changed the last name
to Uhan. Back in New York some of the
Johengens were tried and hung for being
horse theives. I see a connection there!!!
Trying to outrun the law possibly??
I have a good amount of family history
and old stories compliments of
Ruby Uhan DeArmond.
