How are you related to Mary Alice Culbreath, P.O. Box 246, Hunter AR 72074, who has been looking for this connection for a long time? They were married in Shepherd's Church in Newbern. I have gone to the Pulaski County Library, near there, to see what they may know about it, but there is no known record. They surmise that it may have been a church that met in someone's home.
Virtually all Honakers in America who can trace their lineage all the way back are descendants of Hans Jacob Honaker, who landed at Philadelphia from Switzerland in 1749. We are an organization devoted to his history and the history of his descendants.
The immigrant last lived at Pulaski and we visit his old land there every few years when we have our annual reunions, so it is likely that the Honakers you're looking for are ours, but we have so far not made the connection even though we have nearly 27,000 descendants in the computer.
If you would like any information about us and a copy of one of our newsletters, send your mailing address. We meet in Pikeville, Ky., Aug. 11. Mary Alice will be there.
Thank you for your query. Your cousin, Tom Hanlin, Honaker Family Assn. (Volunteer; we have no paid staff, wish we could afford one.)
