    Happy Anniversary to the Munstermans...

    Monday, June 15, 2009, 2:00 PM [General]

    Yesterday (June 14th) was the 162nd anniversary of my 4th great grandparents, Clemence and Johanna (Piper) Munsterman came to America.  They left Westphalen(sp), Germany and boarded the passenger ship, Alfred.  They arrived June 14, 1847 in New York.  They had their oldest child, Adam, 1 year old with them and also Anthony Munsterman, aged 19.  At this time, I am not sure who Anthony is.  In 1853, Clemence and Johanna had another child, Anthony.  Wondering if Anthony (the unknown one on the ship) might have been a nephew or a much younger brother to Clemence?? 

    Anywho... Happy Anniversary!

    Just a shot in the dark here. Was Frank Hazelwonder a desendent of the Munsterman family? There are a few Munstermans in my area.

    Hi Julie,

    No I am not from the Hazelwonder family that I know of. I still have a lot of research to do on my father's side.

    The reason I asked about the Munsterman Hazelwonder connection was Fred bears a striking resemblance to an elderly Munsterman gentleman from my area.

    How ironic that we both found a familiarity in each others photos!

    Sorry there isn't a connection. But who knows maybe I will find a Hazlewonder hiding in my tree somewhere.

    Best Wishes and Happy Digging!
