Magnus had a son John whose daughter was Clementine [[Rose (surname)|Rose]] and she was my grandmother on my father's side. We are from the [[Canton, Ohio]]/ [[Massillon, Ohio]] area originally. if you want. I have recently found some information on the FamilySearch pilot program on the family. How are we related and what kind of information do you have? I have gone back to Dominikus Hammer and Melchior [[Walz (surname)|Walz]] but I am lacking some dates.

Yes, you have it exactly right--Adam was my grandfather, my father was Joe. I have a few pictures as there was a fire in the 30s and they lost all of their pictures except for a few that are with other relatives. I do have a wonderful picture of Adam and Clementine when they were very young--a copy I got from an uncle. How far back does your information go? I have some handwritten information from someone in the Hammer family that I am working with right now--perhaps it is yours--about 15 sheets on legal sized paper and copies of the death certificates of Louis and Mary Hammer and Johanna [[Oser (surname)|Oser]].

I have an informal picture of the Adam and Clementine S. family of all eight kids ~early 1930s, pictures of Adam and Clementine in their 20s, and a picture of Clementine when she was in her 50s. What are you interested in? I would be glad to share. Is your mother A.P. and are you B.N.? I just talked with my Aunt Helen S. and she is good friends with A.P.--said you were doing the Hammer genealogy.

Yes, Jacob {{Surname|Kraft}} was married to Amelia [[Sonnhalter(surname)|Sonnhalter]]. Jacob is the son of John {{Surname|Kraft}} married to my great great aunt Catharine Hammer. Jacob had 3 brothers and 1 sister. Do you have any pictures of Jacob's parents or grandparents on the Hammer side? Look forward to your response. By the way John {{Surname|Kraft}} was one of the founding families of [[St. Barbara's Catholic Church (West Brookfield, Ohio)]] in [[West Brookfield, Ohio]]. I believe they donated some of the land. I don't have much info on Jacob's family could you help me with that? Thanks

My great-great grandparents are John and Catherine. They had three sons, John(my great-grandfather),Albert, and Joseph. They had a daughter named Mary. Joseph, Albert and John resided in [[Massillon, Ohio]] until their deaths. John died in 1930 at the age of 69, Albert (who is buried with his parents) was born in 1872 and died in 1934. I have not found any information on Joseph or Mary yet. John (my great-grandfather) had nine children. Sylvester, Vincent, Austin, Mae, Florence, Helen, Juanita, Bernadette, and I forget the other daughter's name. My grandmother was Helen. She died in 1993 at the age of 98. She married Clifford [[Seiler(surname)|Seiler]] who owned a grocery store started by his father, until 1950. They had five children, Ethel Rita, Mary Elizabeth (Busse), Jeanette (Snyder), John, and Shirley Ann (my mom). Please write back I have a lot more information and I would like to know how you are connected!! Beth

Thanks for responding to my inquiry. Catherine was my great grandfather John's sister. I have been trying to locate all his siblings. Have you looked into the Hammer side yet? I am having trouble locating their sister Mary. Did you know that John Kraft and Magnus Hammer (my great, great grandfather) were some of the founding families of [[St. Barbara's Catholic Church (Massillon, Ohio)]] in [[Massillon, Ohio]]? I think John [[Kraft(surname)|Kraft]] donated some of the land. Do you have any pictures of Catherine Hammer [[Kraft(surname)|Kraft]], or better yet of her parents Magnus Catherine? I was hoping since Catherine (your great great grandmother) was the oldest surviving daughter that maybe she had all the old pictures. I would appreciate any info you can give me on the Kraft side. My mom is still in contact with someone on your side, I'll ask her who.
