Welcome To My
BRANTNER - HOOVER
Family History Site
| This site started in 2000 as simply a presentation of my parents' family history book,
but it kept growing as a genealogical site. The book has been moved to a secondary spot in order
to provide the genealogical data first. I've chosen to present the data in group sheets, with pedigree charts and surname shortcut links to hopefully guide the visitor. Ancestral pictures, cemetery pictures, and obituaries have been added as primary source data. The unselfishness of those who have generously contributed data, pictures, and obituaries to these pages is greatly appreciated. I hope you find my site informative and useful as we preserve, celebrate, and share our family heritage. I covet your comments, questions, corrections and additions. |

NOTE: Texas Brantner ancestry consists of my grandfather Ambrose Lee Brantner's small lineage and the very
extensive lineage of his brother, John Mathious Brantner, primarily in Central/East Texas. I've collaborated
extensively over the years with Gerrie Jones Yates, who lives in Houston and is more knowledgeable about the
JMB allied families. She maintains the Heards Prairie/Petteway Cemetery listing (and other listings) and has a
personal relationship with many of the JMB descendants.

QUOTATION OF THE MONTH, OR WHENEVER
Note: I've suspended my monthly contribution of the sage, wisdom, and observation of others as related to the agony/ecstasy of genealogy. I continue to promote "preponderance of the evidence" as a more logical goal than the elusive "truth" or "proof" that some think exists. |
