The Hofmann Daugherty Family Bramble

My name is Deborah Anne Hofmann Kaelin.


Welcome to my "family bramble". My family tree is so twisted in knots from brothers of one family marrying sisters from another, first cousins marrying one another, etc. that I refer to it as a bramble. My mother is the former Anna Sue Daugherty of Cromwell, Ohio County, Kentucky. My father is Robert Louis Hofmann from Louisville, Jefferson County, Kentucky. The Hofmann's and Ott's are the paternal side. Everyone else is on the maternal side. I hope this site can help you fill out your tree and for you to help me fill out mine. The only way we can all find our roots is if we dig together and share with one another.

I will try to add GEDCOMS and/or family data pages as I go along. Please bear with me. I'm just starting this page.

Please e-mail me at dandpkaelin@fusenet.com if you see a possible family connection.

I am gradually obtaining research resources. I am happy to do look-ups for you--within reason. These are the sources I currently have available.

Old Irish Prayer:

Lord, please let my friends love me.
Please turn my enemies hearts so they love me, too.
Lord, if you can't turn their hearts, please turn their ankles so I may recognize them.
