Our Hulshoff & Kerchner Ancestors

The narrative traces the lineage of Johannes David of Hul's Hoff, a Dragoner in the late 1680s, and his marriage to Anna Margareta Thoben. Their descendants, including Johann Gerhart Hulshoff and his family, journey from Bremen to New Orleans, ultimately settling in Baltimore. Spanning from 1665 to 1983, the story highlights the family's history and includes manuscripts by Fr. Frank Kunkel that document the Kerchner and Kern ancestors, along with additional family surnames such as Etter, Haynes, Huguenin, Marshall, and Rauch.
