Sutcliffe ~ Warren Our families come from Arkansas, Indiana, Missouri, Oklahoma, Nebraska, New York, Nebraska, Ohio, Pennsylvania and Virginia and dates back to 1895 in Kansas. We also came from Austria, Ireland, Scotland, Hungary, Germany, and England. Traditionally, the last name told a lot about your heritage. The last name often told where you came from and the class of your family. We haven’t kept that tradition; and so it isn’t as easy to tell much about a person from their last name in recent generations. |

Our Burwell
Connection is through my late mother, Mildred Ruth Burwell My
Mother’s Family Bennett ~ Bunnell ~ Burwell ~ Brown
~ Cogswell ~ Devine ~ Englehaut
~ Garwood ~ Gehr ~ Madison ~ Millen ~ McArthur ~
Robinson~ Peden ~ Warren The Burwell family comes from the
Virginia Burwell's and can trace their ancestors back to the ancient
territories of England between the 11th and 12th centuries. The Burwell
family traces their ancestral roots back to Anglo Saxon origin, and first
appeared in ancient medieval records in Suffolk .
That from very early on the Burwell family not only held lands and estates in
England but were also actively allied with other influential families. They also
branched out into other territories and holdings, before taking the long
voyage to the new world. BURWELL Shield:

Our Chek Connection is through my late father, James Howard Chek My
Father’s Family Chek ~ Cseh
~ McMurtrie The Cseh/Chek family
is from Hungary (A
socialist country). Our Ancestors came to America to find the great
promise of freedom. (Dutch, German, Hungarian). Stephen James and
James Stephen are believed to be father/son. I thought these were our
ancestors. But, found someone who
reads the Hungarian language and I may have been on the wrong trail. Still researching this line. My grandfather
was 3 years old when he came to this country.
His name was Steve Cseh. Found out that name is like
"smith" to the Hungarian people.
That makes this very hard. Chek - Cseh NAME ·
Hungarian: ethnic name for someone
of Czech ancestry. ·
Means Czech in Hungarian ·
Cseh is
as common in Hungary as Smith is in the United States |

back to 1785 in Ireland and Scottish dating back to 1721 in Dalmellington, Ayrshire,

Our Bingham Connection
is through my late mother in law, Anna Ruth Bingham My
Spouse’s Family Bingham ~ Buckley ~ Hoschouer ~ Hickcox ~ Hutchinson ! Madison ~
Monroe ~ Newberry ~ Herrington The
Bingham family can trace their ancestors back to the ancient territories of
England between the 11th and 12th centuries.

English clan name, Binningas, or an Old
English word bing

of various like-sounding habitational names such as
Bingenheimer. The Bingham family of Melcombe Bingham in Dorset can trace their descent back to Robert de Bingham, recorded in 1273, who probably came from Bingham in Nottinghamshire. His descendants included the Earls of Lucan. A branch of the family was established in Ireland, where they gave their name to Binghamstown in County Mayo. Sir Richard Bingham (c.1528–99) was Marshal of Ireland. Charles Bingham (1735–99) was created earl of Lucan in 1795 |
Our Hoshouer Connection is through my late mother in law,
Anna Ruth Bingham My
Spouse’s Family Bingham ~ Buckley ~ Hoschouer ~ Hickcox ~ Hutchinson ~ Madison ~ Monroe ~ Newberry ~
Herrington Of all the
families I've researched, I think this family has been the most interesting
with some pieces of history and stories that even my grandchildren would be
interested in. Hanging out with Annie
Oakley-that's something kids can remember!!
Most of this information was found using Ancestry.com and Genforum. Most of
this information comes from Chris Christianson's information. I've emailed him to obtain more information
as to his sources and am waiting on a reply.
Some of this information comes from the research of a cousin, Brian McCullum, and another distant cousin Philip Smith and I
am checking on those sources also.
Thanks to these people and a little hard work on my part, I've been
able to put this Family tree page together. The recent photos of Isaac and
Catherine and the headstones found in the Hoschouer
Family Cemetery come from Robin Hoschouer Zeller
who still lives near the family homestead.
The Hoshouer family
is from Rossburg,
Darke County Ohio and Lancaster,
Pennsylvania from the old Pennsylvania Dutch families and can trace their
ancestors back to Germany, Switzerland,
and France Houshouer

Our Extended Family Connection is
through relationships and marriages of our Family Our Anderson and Blaker
Connection is through my Foster Parents, Betty and Ivan Blaker My
Forever Family Anderson ~ Blaker ~ Crawshaw Our
Extended Family Rodriguez ~ Sutcliffe ~ Benitez ~ Critchfield
~ Darrough Anderson-Blaker Family The Anderson-Blaker families came from
Scotland and Northern England and possibly Germany. This is my “forever
family”; the family that I adopted as my “Parents” when I was in high
school. My “forever family” showed me
the real meaning of “family”, “parents”, “sisters”, “aunts”, “uncles”,
“grandparents” and “unconditional love” is really all about. I learned how to be a “Mom” and a “Grandma”
by watching them be wonderful parents and grandparents
to my children. I learned about “love”
from watching them love so intensely and so unconditionally. I don’t honestly know where I would be
today if I hadn’t become part of their family. I carried little “traditions” to my own
small family from what I learned from this wonderful family. Anderson
NAME ·
Scottish and northern English: very
common patronymic from the personal name Ander(s), a northern Middle
English form of Andrew. The frequency of the surname in Scotland is
attributable, at least in part, to the fact that St. Andrew is the patron
saint of Scotland, so the personal name has long enjoyed great popularity
there. Legend has it that the saint’s relics were taken to Scotland in the
4th century by a certain St. Regulus. The surname
was brought independently to North America by many different bearers and was
particularly common among 18th-century Scotch-Irish settlers in PA and VA. In
the United States, it has absorbed many cognate or like-sounding names in
other European languages, notably Swedish Anderson, Norwegian and Danish
Anderson, but also Ukrainian Andreychyn,
Hungarian Andrásfi, etc. Blaker
NAME: English: variant of Blacker or Blocker Crashaw
Name: English Rodriguez NAME:
Spanish (Rodríguez) and Portuguese: patronymic from
the personal name Rodrigo. Sutcliffe NAME:
English: habitational name from any of the three
places in West Yorkshire, so named from Old English sūð
‘south’ + clif ‘riverbank’, ‘slope’,
‘cliff’, or a topographic name with the same meaning. Benitez NAME:
Spanish (Benítez): patronymic from Benito. Critchfield
NAME: English: variant of Crutchfield. |

work more effectively. If one of them falls down, the other can help him up… Two people can resist an attack that would defeat one
person alone. A rope made of three cords is hard to break.” Ecclesiastes
