Family Tree Charts!

Hi Everybody!


Big news!  From now on, I will be including family tree chart(s) for each post subject. The charts are formatted as fan charts, so the person most recent in the timeline in the chart is at the bottom center, and the ancestors "fan" out from that center, with paternal ancestors on the left and maternal ancestors on the right. 

Each chart can show six generations, so for the Bradley, Hazen, and Stricker trees, an additional set of trees are required to show all the ancestors back to the original immigrants. Each of these sub-trees center a person on the fifth ring of the main tree. 

Sounds like a lot of gibberish, but if you look at the posts, you can follow the people in the tree  to find the exact lineage to one of the blog's main people. 

Here's one of the fan charts - this is the one for Edward Elihu Hazen. He's in the middle, and his parents are in the ring closest, then grandparents, great-grandparents, etc. My goal for each branch is to trace the tree backwards to at least the immigrant in the branch. For this chart, six generations isn't enough to show the immigrant, so there are sub-trees for each of the people in the second-to-outermost ring. So there is a fan chart with Solomon Hazen at the center, That way, the lineage can be traced all the way back to Edward Hazen, born in 1614, the first of the Hazen branch to immigrate to the U.S. 



By the way if you would prefer a set of hardcopy charts for your branch or branches of the tree, send me an email at starlahazen@gmail.com, and I'll snail-mail the charts to you.

Welcome!

Welcome to my genealogy blog! I'm just getting started, but I hope to share family trees, facts, and stories I've uncovered while researching my family and Dave's family. So, I will be posting family trees for the ancestors of Edward Elihu Hazen Jr.,  Ruth Ann Bradley, Roy Ellsworth Stricker, and Anna Elnora Rosemeyer,  My genealogy is a work in progress, and although I strive for accuracy, and have at least one (usually several) historical record to back up each name and relationship, I do make revisions from time to time. My goal for each branch is to trace direct ancestors at leas as far as the first immigrant to the U.S.  I'm new at blogging, so please be patient - I'm learning as I go. Again, welcome! Starla

Rosemeyer Family Tree - Friederick Rosemeyer and Eleanor Kolling

Friederich Rosemeyer  and Eleanor Kolling - Immigrants to Indianapolis Family Connection - great-grandfather and great-grandmother to Anna Rosemeyer Friederich Rosemeyer was born in Germany on Aug. 25, 1844.  I haven't found a marriage record (yet!) but in 1873, he immigrated to the U.S. with his wife Eleanor, age 31, daughter Christine, age 4, and son Friederich, age 11 months. They arrived in New York on September 19th. I assume they traveled by train to Indianapolis from New York City.  Why Indianapolis? We may never know for sure, but it is likely they came because they had connections to other members of Zion Evangelical and Reformed Church (now Zion United  Church of Christ). Indianapolis had a large German immigrant community, and at Zion, they worshipped in German until at least 1928, when the first services in English occurred.  Friederich and Eleanor had six children:     Christina      1869-1875     Frederick  ...

Hazen Family Tree - Edward Hazen

 Edward Hazen - Immigrant, Patriarch of Hazens in the U.S.  Family connection - seventh great-grandfather of Edward Elihu Hazen Jr.  Edward Hazen was born in Cadney, Lincolnshire, England on December 14, 1614. His father was Thomas Hassen (1580-1628). His mother was Elizabeth Mowry (1582-1630).  Edward immigrated to the town of Rowley, MA in 1647. The  town was established in 1639, so he was an early settler, but not an original one.  Edward married Elizabeth, surname unknown. She died on Sept. 18. 1649 and was buried in the Rowley Burial Ground. They had no children.  On Mar. 2, 1650, Edward married Hannah Grant, daughter of Thomas Grant and Jane Haburne. At least one source indicates that the Grant family immigrated to Rowley on the same ship as Edward.  Edward and Hannah had 11 children:          Elizabeth - b. 1651, Hannah - b. 1653, John - b. 1655, Thomas - b. 1657, Edward - b. 1660,         ...
