Having read the information submitted re George11 HULLINGER born
1811 in
Pennsylvania,married to Elisabeth GALLOWAY I wondered if their son
Joseph
is the Joseph HOLLINGER for whom I am searching ?
My great great grandfather was Joseph HOLLINGER born in 1841 in
Philadelphia.He left the USA in the
1860's - 1870's and travelled the
world,eventually marrying a Prussian woman called Anna KREUTZBERG.
They produced 3 children who were brought up in the south of England
UK,although Joseph continued to travel abroad with a circus as he
was a
trainer of wild animals.
He used the surname of LEDGER instead of HOLLINGER,the reason for
that is
unknown.
When he died in 1898 his age was given as 57 years.
Could this be my ancestor Joseph ? He apparently served with the
27th.
Pennsylvania Regiment.
I would be interested to hear your comments.......I see that there
is no
date of death for Joseph HULLINGER.....
My Joseph was an African American ...can anybody help ?
