The Orner/Arner Family Association seeks descendants of:
ELEANOR ALICE CHANCE, Oscar Theodore Orner, 1904-1989, Beloit, Rock; Clear Lake, Polk, WI;
Sibley, MN.
You are almost certainly descendants of Hans Ulrich Arner and Verena Eberhard, 1735
immigrants from Switzerland to Philadelphia. Join us for an August 24-25, 2002 gathering
in beautiful Lehigh County, Pennsylvania (1 hour north of Philadelphia). For “reunion”
information or to see where you fit into the *rner family, visit Joe Erner’s website at
www.geocities.com/~erner/gen/arner which documents the Arner/Aner family to the 1500s, or
contact us through the Arner Listserv at ARNER-L(a)rootsweb.com. We’re planning two
fun-filled days including a catered Pennsylvania Dutch luncheon and the dedication of a
memorial stone in the Heidelberg Union Church cemetery to honor the immigrants. Help us
widen our circle of cyber-cousins and plan to attend. We welcome you.
