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.

[S157] DC: G. Solomon Egger; Record Type: Death Certificate; Name Of Person: Solomon Egger; File Date: 26 Oct 1941; Number: 62523. This death certificate has what I believe is an incorrect birthdate. The birthdate on his confirmation certificate, data probably supplied by his parents, seems to me more likely to be accurate than the date on this form supplied by his wife. The month and day are the same, but the confirmation cerfificate has the year as 1864 rather than 1866. His tombstone has yet another year. Unless I find convincing information to the contrary, I'm going to use the 1864 date as primary..
