THE JOHN HONSINGER YOU ARE LOOKING FOR IS MY GGGGG GRANDFATHER. MY BROTHER BRYAN AND MYSELF ARE THE LAST MALE HEIRS FROM THE PORTION OF JOHN'S FAMILY THAT SETTLED IN THE ST. CATHARINES AREA IN 1785 AFTER THE AMERICAN REVOLUTION. I HAVE EXTENSIVE INFORMATION REGARDING THIS PORTION OF THE FAMILY TREE AS WELL AS INFORMATION AS TO HOW THE FAMILY SPREAD THROUGHOUT CANADA. I CAN ANSWER ALL OF THE QUESTIONS YOU ARE INTERESTED IN AND CAN PROVE ALL OF MY ANSWERS WITH EVIDENCE AND RESEARCH. I AM SURE THAT YOUR PORTION OF THE FAMILY IS DESCENDENT FROM ONE OF JOHN'S SONS NAMED WAIT HONSINGER WHO WENT TO THE THE ST. THOMAS AREA IN THE LATE 1830S WHEN HE EXERCISED HIS LAND GRANT RIGHTS THAT HIS FATHER OBTAINED FORM HIM THROUGH HIS PARTICIPATION IN THE AMERICAN REVOLUTION ON THE SIDE OF THE LOYALISTS. YOU ARE ACTUALLY A DESCENDENT OF A BUTLER'S RANGER. PLEASE E- MAIL ME IF YOU WISH TO FIND OUT MORE INFO.
