Henne Family

still digging up those bones

#1 Anthony HENNE, the immigrant was born in Wurttemberg, Germany.

     It would be difficult to determine what his last name was in Germany as early as U.S. records (1850-1870) list it as Heay, Haney, and Heaney. He probably came to America sometime between 1840 and 1846.

     He and his wife, Margaret Deschner, settled in Pinegrove Township, a sparsely populated rural area in Pennsylvania, where he took up farming. In 1850 the value of his real property was $500. In 1860 the value of his real property was $1,500 and his personal property was $400. In 1870 real property had increased to $4,000 and personal property was $400.

      His date of death is not known, but he was still living at Pinegrove Township, Venango County, Pennsylvania as late as 1898. Anthony HENNE married in Germany-
