Descendants of Wilke Tappehorn


Generation No. 1

1.  WILKE1 TAPPEHORN

Notes for WILKE TAPPEHORN:
Wilke Tappehorn is the first Tappehorn listed on the genealogical papers sent
to me (Velma Schonder) by Werner Honkomp, Germany.  His wife's name was
not known.  I received quite a few papers from Mr. Honkomp, some in German and some in English.  The ones in German, I have had translated by Rosemarie
Gede, Palm Harbor, Florida, Secretary of the German American Society, St.
Petersburg, Florida.  She also explained some of the customs of the people--
a man would take on his wife's last name if her family had a larger estate or
farm or was more politically important than his family.  You will note this on
various family pages included.  Franz-Josef Tegenkamp also helped me with a lot of information and he sent some information by way of Werner Honkomp

Notes for JOHANN HEINRICH HOLTERMANN:
John Henry and Anna Margaret Holterman, nee Taphorn came to USA approx-
imately 1851.  It has been reported they were a strong Roman Catholic family
and was a strong family unit.  It is reported that they left Germany because it
had been published that any male child 5 years of age or older would be
raised in a military school and then put into the army.  It is reported that they first went to Sweden, then USA, then to Ohio and then to Kentucky.
In 1982 Velma Schonder, nee Stovey went with her husband AJ Schonder to

FOLLOWING INFORMATION RECEIVED JULY, 1998 FROM WERNER HONKOMP
IN DINKLAGE, OLDENBURG, GERMANY
John Henry (Johann Heinrich ) last name was actually Holterman and he married
Anna Maria Dorothea Tappehorn who inherited the Tappehorn Farm.  When they married Johann Heinrich took the last name of his wife and his last name became Tappehorn.  This was the custom if the wife's family was more powerful
either because of having a larger farm or land or royalty.  This way any children
would keep the name of Tappehorn (Taphorn) alive.  It has been reported that
both the Tappehorn farm and the Holterman farm was sold when Anna Maria and Johann Heinrich came to America.  They came in 1851.  Please see copies of all
papers received from Oldenburg/Dinklage, Germany.  The Tappehorn farm was
sold to Horstmann in Dinklage.
When the family came to America the last name was changed from Tappehorn
to Taphorn.  It is not known the reason for this or who changed it.

Following are some names that I (Velma Schonder) have received as possible
siblings but I do not have the proof.

information supplied to Jerry Capshaw by Eloise Talley by Mrs. Ruby Capshaw Grovier.  Mrs. Grovier was in advanced age & in ill health at the time she gave this info.  Eloise Talley surmises:  It is the opinion of this compiler that Rebecca (Becky) was a sister to Joseph McDonald Capshaw rather than a daughter as she is said to have died on the way from TN to AR and as the family came to AR when Joseph was very young she would have to be his sister.  I think Mrs.Govier made a mistake in placing her on this chart as a daughter

information supplied to Jerry Capshaw by Eloise Talley by Mrs. Ruby Capshaw Grovier.  Mrs. Grovier was in advanced age & in ill health at the time she gave this info.  Eloise Talley surmises:  It is the opinion of this compiler that Rebecca (Becky) was a sister to Joseph McDonald Capshaw rather than a daughter as she is said to have died on the way from TN to AR and as the family came to AR when Joseph was very young she would have to be his sister.  I think Mrs.Govier made a mistake in placing her on this chart as a daughter
/s/Eloise Talley....Joseph McDonald Capshaw's parents: John & Emily Capshaw do not show a daughter named Rebecca, unless Sarah had a middle name of Rebecca.
