OUR BONNETT FAMILY
by Leon & Dee Henricks, April 1997
First Generation
The earliest ancestor found to date is Daniel Bonnett, born about 1658. It is not known if he
was married more than once but the Church Book of St Evangile in the Wallonne settlement of
Freidrichstahl, Baden, Germany tend to indicate that he may have been. As his children were
confirmed, married or died, some are noted as a child of Daniel Bonnett and others are referred
to as a child of Daniel Bonnett and Christine Cousine. Daniel had a least seven children. Daniel Bonnett's wife Christine, died in February 1731 or 1732 and Daniel died 4 September 1736.

not listed. Other Bonnett researchers say
they are the sons of Jacob and Martha.
Perhaps it was easier to omit than to locate
them.

Marshall Fitzhugh Bonnett, his brother David and their brother-in-law Zack Taylor drove an ox team to California in 1848 to dig for gold. When Marshall and David were ready to return to Iowa, Zack Taylor could not be found and was thought to have been killed by Indians.
