Yes, we are looking for the same DENIKE family. It was just brought to my attention by an Aunt that my great-grandfather's 2nd wife, Annie, had a sister named Frankie. It is believed to be Sarah Frances.

Elizabeth DENIKE b.1835 NY or NJ

giannini — 2009-12-15 19:39:10Z

I am trying to connect Elizabeth to her DENIKE family. I find her in 1850,Passaic, New Jersey,age 15,b.NJ, living with two people,their last name WHITE. There is a William DENIKE family in Passaic which could be hers.She named one of her sons William. All the family history/census's later say she was born in New York. But she married her husband Henry SEWELL in New Jersey, 1854. In a story written by one of her granddaughters it also refers to the last name TEN EYCK when referring to her last name. Anyone have Elizabeth in their tree?

Thanks,
Margaret

Looking for decendants of Ora Denike nee Williams. Lived St.Louis, Mo in the 1940,s. Most likely died there. hER Fathers name was Charlie Williams ,he died 1913-1914 in Phillips ,Co Arkansas. Ora had twin sisters, Nora Febia & Cora P. Nora married J.H. Kleiber in Mississippi and Cora married Waters also in Mississippi. I believe the williams girls may have had some half brothers who were older than the girls,no names known and no Proof. Cora also died in St.Louis early 1940s . Would realy appreciate any info any one can share!! Thank you ,and happy hunting, Helen Kleiber

Denike Family

If the Denike you seek is either Isaac Denike Sr. of Peekskill New York or his son Isaac Denike jr. I have substantial information including Isacc Seniors Will. Senior was born about 1849 and died very old in 1842. He supposedly was a revolutionary war Vet and one of Lafayette's Guards. He and Junior attended Washington's inaugural as well.

She married Lucas Sharp, Ernestown, abt. 1824, had 3 children and died abt. 1835. I would appreciate hearing from anyone who has any information on her. Thanks!

Searching for family of Sarah Frances DeNike

I am searching for any info on the family of Sarah Frances DeNike. She was born about 1864 probably in or near Sussex Co. NJ. She married John P. DAY and lived in Sussex Co. NJ. They had 4 children that all died as infants. "Frankie" died in 1940. All are buried in North Hardyston Cemetery in Sussex, NJ. She may have had a brother named Sam that lived near Lake Mohawk, NJ. Any info will be greatly appreciated and I am very willing to share what I have.

Willet Denike

vickiwilliams — 2009-10-06 15:41:36Z

I am in search of my husbands gr-gr-gr-grandfather and I am very confused. His grandmother was Grace Estelle Denike(1910-2003).

Her father was
Willett Denike b. Oct 1866 NY; m. (1) abt 1887 Elizabeth ___?___; m. (2) abt 1904 Maria Ymkenberg; d. ____?______

I have found Willett on census records 1930, 1920, 1910 with Maria and in 1900 with Elizabeth and his brother Frederick Denike.
In 1880 he was in his father's household in Peekskill, but he was listed as William, not Willett. The age agrees with Willett on later census records and living family members remember gr-uncles named Freddie and Ben and gr-aunt Gracie.

1880 United States Federal Census
about William Denike
Name: William Denike
Home in 1880: Peekskill, Westchester, New York
Age: 14
Estimated Birth Year: abt 1866
Birthplace: New York
Relation to Head of Household: Son
Father's Name: Willet
Father's birthplace: New York
Mother's Name: Mary E.
Mother's birthplace: New York
Neighbors: View others on page
Occupation: At School
Race: White
Gender: Male

Household Members:
Name Age
Willet Denike 32
Mary E. Denike 29
William Denike 14
Richard Denike 12
Abbie Denike 12
Benjimin Denike 7
Frederick Denike 4
Gracie Denike 2

Now I am in search of the parents of Willett Denike b. 1842 (according to obit) or 1844 (according to Civil War Record) or 1848 (according to this 1880 census) or 1846 (according to 1870 census) He married Mary Elizabeth Devoe. He died of pneumonia 2 Jan 1882. Mary Elizabeth remarried to ___?___ Gilleo and had at least one child - Charles Gilleo b. 1889.

I have found at least 6 Willett Denikes besides the two above.

Willitt Denike b. abt 1814 - census 1880 Rahway, NJ age 66 husband of Emma Louise
- census 1870 Rahway, NJ age 57 + Emma L. 48, Willet Jr. 21 Lawyer, Vano 19, Ellen17, Maggie 14, Annie 7
- census 1850 Cortlandt, NY age 37 + "Anna L" 27, Emma A. 8, Charles R. 4, Willet 1(husband of Annie B. Melick)

Willet G. Denike b. abt 1834 d. 1903 - census 1850 Phillipstown, NY ?household w/ Sutton D. & William E Denike & Elizabeth Ross

Willet Denike b. abt 1858 d. 1901 - census 1880 Peekskill, NY son of Sutton V. Denike & Abby J. (Bloomer)

"Willet Denike Jr." b. abt 1849 d. 10 Dec 1874 Woodbridge, NJ - NY Death Newspaper Extracts (@ancestry.com)

Willett Denike b. abt 1875 - census 1880 Woodbridge, NJ age 5 grandson of J. Mattison Melick
(This would be the son of "Willett Denike, Jr." who married Annie B. Melick in 1873 and died in 1874)

Willet Denike b. abt 1818 - census 1870 Phillipstown, NY husband (or father) of Mariah (Smith) Denike + Henrietta 8 and Clarence 2

I also know there are at least two Willet Denikes in more recent generations. The family was from the Peekskill, NY area. If anyone

knows more about these people please contact me.

Willet Denike

vickiwilliams — 2009-10-06 15:40:25Z

My husband is the gr-grandson of the oldest son in this family. Although the 1880 census index gives his name as William, he was actually another Willett Denike, of which there were many more than I expected. He married Elizabeth ? and after her death married Maria Sophia Imkenberg who was the widow of a Mr. Chartier. He had no children with Elizabeth, but raised the two Chartier children as well as 3 of his own with Maria.

Chad....which branch of this family is your ancestors-in-law?
Do you have information about their ancestors? My mother-in-law will be happy to know there's some long lost cousins out there. You can e-mail me direct at vewms@dixie-net.com.

Re: Denike in New Jersey

Hi! I suspect we are hunting related DENIKE families. My greatgrandfather's brother was John P DAY who married Sarah Frances DENIKE (1864-1940). I don't know her family beyond my Mom saying that there was a brother living on Lake Mohawk. His name may have been Samuel. None of John and "Frankie's" children lived beyond infancy. All are buried in North Hardyston Cemetery. Anything sound familiar?
