Hillbillies & Vikings

This site is focused broadly on all descendants of John Denboe, an indentured servant who came to the Crown Colony of Maryland in about the year 1664. Also, it maintains a special emphasis on the descendants of John Denbow (1797-1862) and his brother Bazeleel (1795-1857), early pioneers in the hills of Southeastern Ohio, as well as the descendants of Jón Jónsson (1841-1934) of Dalasýsla, Iceland, who was an Icelandic immigrant to Canada and now has progeny throughout North America.

  • Notes  Married:
    • Rush was apparently her maiden name. Mann book lists Rush as maiden name but has her last name as Williamson even before she married Linus, her apparent first marriage. I assume that this was a scribal error, since the key in the book indicates names in parentheses are maiden names, and Rush was in parentheses.
