I took on genealogy as a hobby
a little over ten years ago. I started with my father's family,
wanting to know more about his ancestors, then progressed to my
mother's family, relatives' families, and friends' families.
I find it an extremely rewarding hobby. This website shows
information I have found while researching the
Linamen, Farringer, Trudgeon, Huffman, Holmlund and collateral family lines.

Charles (Carl) L. Lineman was born in Germany in 1796. He married
Dora (Madora) Hartman (born in 1810). They came to the United
States and settled in Clarion County, Pennsylvania. Charles was my 3great
grandfather. His son, Charles
Augustus, married Suzanne Swartsfager.

Hans Theobald Ferringer was born in Germany. He came with
his family to the
United States in 1750 and settled in Pennsylvania, probably in the
Northampton area. Hans' grandson, George moved from Northampton to Schuylkill County. George's son, Joseph, and
his son, John, moved from
Schuylkill to Armstrong County (now Venango County), Pennsylvania
in 1832.

Anthony Trudgyan was born in St. Mewan in Cornwall, England, in
the late 1600's and died in 1737. Anthony was my 8Great
Grandfather. He married Elizabeth Lawry. His descendant,
Joseph
Trudgeon, my great great grandfather, immigrated to this
country in the late 1800's and settled in Charlevoix County and
later moved to Gogebic County, Michigan.

Jeremiah
Huffman was born in Kentucky in 1828. Jeremiah was my great great
grandfather. His parents were born in Virginia and
Tennessee. I believe that his grandparents or great
grandparents came from Prussia sometime in the 1700's. Prior
to coming to America, the family name might have been Von Hoffman.
Nancy
Pollard Tate was born in 1837 in Adair County, Missouri.
She married Jeremiah Huffman in 1853 in Macon County,
Missouri. I am trying to find out Jeremiah's parents' names and where they
lived/died in Kentucky.

Johan
Vilhem Holmlund, was born November 12, 1869 in Finland and
died between 1917 - 1919 in Buffalo, New York. He and his
brother, Anton, immigrated to the United States in 1892. He
was the son of Gustaf Holmlund and Maria Sofia Esaiasdotter.
Johan was Steve
Holmlund's (my husband)
grandfather. The progenitor of
this line, Johan
Johansson Wittberg, was born in Sweden in 1716.
