Cousins working on this line - Annemarie Halfpap
We must acknowledge a special cousin who is no longer with us. Dusty Clark was not only a cousin, but a dear friend.

Young IngwardHalfpap Family

The Halfpap line traces back to Ferdinand and Matilda (Hoeftman) Halfpap. Unfortunately we haven't been able to verify information in Germany as yet. The information we do have came from researching other branches of the family. We know that Ferdinand and Matilda had at least four children, two of which were Maria and Otto who immigrated to the United States.

Maria immigrated first in 1892, at the age of 16, and is listed as a Servant. in 1897 she married J.F. William Lubbert and had 10 children. William sponsored Otto Halfpap to immigrate in 1923. Otto's family arrived in 1924.

Otto married Minna Zaage in Germany and had one son, Ingward. She died in 1912, and Otto married Augusta Weinert. They had three more sons before immigrating. Their youngest was born just four months after Augusta and the children arrived. Otto's obituary states that he had two brothers in Germany, but at this time we have not been able to find them.
