Henne Family
still digging up those bones
#1 Anthony HENNE, the immigrant was born in Wurttemberg, Germany.
It would be difficult to determine what his last name was in Germany as early as U.S. records (1850-1870) list it as Heay, Haney, and Heaney. He probably came to America sometime between 1840 and 1846.
He and his wife, Margaret Deschner, settled in Pinegrove Township, a sparsely populated rural area in Pennsylvania, where he took up farming. In 1850 the value of his real property was $500. In 1860 the value of his real property was $1,500 and his personal property was $400. In 1870 real property had increased to $4,000 and personal property was $400.
His date of death is not known, but he was still living at Pinegrove Township, Venango County, Pennsylvania as late as 1898. Anthony HENNE married in Germany-
Margaret Deschner born in Baden, Germany. The daughter of Mr. & Margaret Deschner

sisters.
After Bertha Henne's death in 1978 the home was given to Marietta College. Although a difficult decision to make, the College's Board of Trustees decided to have the Henne home razed. The land it was on, and some surrounding land, has been made into a very attractive open park-like area with a couple of sidewalks, some benches and shrubbery, adding to the beauty of the campus.
The remainder of the estate totaled over a quarter of a million dollars, and the only surviving sister was Sarah Henne Reese (#13). As of 1980 all but $30,000 has been distributed to her, the balance being held for possible future taxes against the estate.
