Re: what is my ethinicity

kern_leon — 2011-11-25 16:29:25Z

First of all- enlish is not my first language- so, please, forgive me, if I make mistakes. By my resource, last name Kern (in german -kernel, core, seed) had nothing to do basic with Irland, the name sourced within theutonic (ur-german) knights in first and second crusader war, moving from central Europe to south. They establish a templar command in Komenda- Slovenia, where most of old familys steel have the last name KERN. My grand father take his source in Komenda- Slovenia.

Re: Kern

jaasak — 2011-11-25 16:26:09Z

Basically, Jimmy, you're right.
Kern is from KERNE which is franco/prussian from upper czech from far south/west russian or in that general direction.

Kerne means "center" or "nucleus"

All of us use our name when "centering" or "KERNING" a picture.

(I'm of the Louisiana Kerns)

Kern

2011-11-25 16:23:33Z

To the best of my knowledge, the name KERN
has its roots in early Prussia, what is now
Austria. That's why there are so many Germans,
Russians, and Austrians named KERN...

Kern

2011-11-25 16:20:29Z

I don't know all about your surname but I know
My great aunt and uncle Olga and Henry Kern
were Germans from Russia. you could email
mmmiller@badlands.NoDak.edu if you think you
have this background and want to ask specifically
about your Kern family.

Charles Kern b: 1841 in Germany...setttled in Pittsburgh, PA

harencamej — 2011-09-11 14:46:40Z

I'm looking for information about a Charles Kern that was born in 1841 in Germany and possibly spent some time in Missouri before finally settling in the Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania area.

He had a son Martin (b: 1875) and a daughter Freda (b: 1892). I don't know if there were any other children or who Charles was married to.

Martin stayed in the Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania region and married Catherine McCartney. I'm not a 100% sure of all the kids they had, but there is a Charles (b: 1900), Maude and/or Gertrude (around 1902), Marie (b: 1903), Howard (b: 1911) and Robert (b: 1918)

Any information or assistance about this family line will be much appreciated.

It's been years, but I did research on Benewell Kern, who married Rebecca Shelhart, as part of my general research on all of the Schellhardt/Shelhart/Shellhart lines in the states. I would be willing to bet that you've gotten further than I did on this particular line, but send me a reply at wknuttel@aol.com and let's compare notes.

Hello Eric,

Well this is how I fit into the Kern Family. Jonathan Kern m Mary Grimm, their son Jonathan II m. Mariah Shuman, their son Albert Wesley m. Frances Dora Courtwright, their daughter Wanda Ruth was my grandmother. Wanda married 1st Alvin Carpenter, 2nd William Jacobs, who was my grandfather. So is William Carl your grandfather?

from several differnt geneaology sources i have this information: Martin BIBLIN born 1732 daughter Katherine Biblin born 1762 died 1824 in Lousiana; she married Adam Kern son of Conrad/Coonrad Kern and wife Mary Campbell Berry; Adam was born in 1762 in North Carolina and died in 1838 in Indiana--child Mary M. (magdalene?) Kern born in 1787 in North carolina and died in 1845 in Iowa; your tree suggests 7 other siblings; on some records the name shows riblin but it may be a tye error or a phonetic spelling as the immigrants had thick accents//i am a biblin and am trying to find deceased biblin information for louisa biblin of kansas 1800's; frank biblin; andrew biblin of maine and james biblin of new york; also one in new mexico and a possible slave in conn. and two from germany sara and leibe came in 1880's from germany //do you have any information about martin and katherine? please e-mail back to me as you may be a very remote relative; my biblin family actually was from russia
