Koenecke Genealogy
Us in 1984
Here's a 1994 photo of the Dallas branch of the Koenecke clan (as far as we know, we're the Dallas branch). In the front are Mary Antoinette Bravo Koenecke and Richard LeRoy Koenecke. In the back, Patricia Koenecke Zang, Michael Joseph Zang, Kathryn Ann Koenecke McKane, Thomas Joseph McKane, Rose Elizabeth McKane, Michael Anthony Koenecke, Megan Marie Koenecke, Jane Elizabeth Kesler Koenecke, Elizabeth Mary Koenecke Venden, William Richard Venden, and Cary Dean Venden. Unfortunately, this is the best three-generation picture we have, though several other grandchildren of Dick and Mary Ann showed up in the years after that.

I got a typed Koenecke genealogy from one of my sisters (Katie, I think), and transcribed it into a nice PDF (Adobe Acrobat) file. The only information I changed was a few instances where someone's name was spelled differently in two different places (e.g., "Marsha" versus "Marcia" Koenecke): in that case, I went with one of the spellings. I also added some information about my parents, my sisters, and our children. The original one was fine, but it's not searchable. The one I have here is, so if you want to find, say, "George Ludwig Koenecke" just search for that text.

I also added hyperlinks to click back and forth between the two places some names appear; e.g., I show up there as the son of Richard LeRoy and the father of David Anthony. I am uploading this for my relatives reference, and I hope so that people can send changes and updates, and we can all have a better idea of where we came from and who we are related to.

To download the file, click on this link: Koenecke Genealogy Version 1.14.

(It's "version 1.14" because I added some information I got from Frank and Trish, and also a bunch of stuff from some pages I brought back from a Wisconsin Koenecke family reunion in 2007. There is a revision history for the file on the last page.)

If you want to check my work, the scanned file I worked from (caution: it's a big, 3.5 megabyte file, since it's all graphics) can be downloaded from here: Original Scanned Version.

I will update this site when I update the file. Please let me know any errors, additions, corrections, or just extra useful information by e-mailing me at mike ("at" symbol goes here) koenecke.us . Thanks, cousins.
