Question:

I'm trying to find out about a book "Our Van Horne Kindred" by Elsie O. Hallenbeck, 1959?

Any information about htis book it's author or any other items related to the van Horne family I would appreciate I am trying to find out some background on family geneology. My grandfather was named Howard van Horne born out of wedlock only child to Caroline van Horne therefore prior family history has never been confirmed. This book or any others besides the "Last Spike" Pierre Burton may help


Best Answer - Chosen by Asker: Thank you for asking that question. The Van Horne family seems to be one of those New Amsterdam families to which I can find many connections in my own family tree.
