there are a bunch of Hoffman's buried inPosey township cemteries and a
few Scherb's also. There is a
Conrad Hoffman born Dec 30, 1825 but no death date on a stone in German
Luthern -- The Scherb family farmed in Posey Twp and I know there will
be a Grimes -Hoffman- Porter buried in Summit Lawn possibly one day ..
She is still living. WAS born a Grimes , and married twice -- I think
will probably die under Porter name however she is a widow since 1993 so
anything is possible lives in Monroe county ...now

Surname: HOFFMAN, SCHERB
-------------------------
Thanks for responding to my query. I did not know that the Hoffman
family
were neighbors to George Scherb of Clay County, Indiana---who was the
uncle
to my ancestor, George Leonard Scherb stayed there on/off for the
first
year after immigrating. It must be there that he met his future wife,
Anna
Barbara Hoffman. They married in Nunda Township, Freeborn County,
Minnesota.
I recently was reviewing the church records from the Nunda Church, and
find there is another Hoffman from Clay County, Indiana listed. I find
a marriage in 1882 for a Conrad Hoffman who was born in Posey Twp.,
Clay
County, Indiana. I am presuming this to be a relative of Anna Barbara,
who probably accompanied her to Minnesota for her wedding. I find
evidence
from children's baptisms that Conrad and family resided in the Twin
Cities,
MN.
I have just started researching my Hoffman line, and don't have much
information
on that family in Indiana. Appreciate any information you have.
