    Notes:

    dates from tombstone according to internet records:
    - Dec 1866 38/58-2-14

    the will of Rachel Hellings, widow of Teunis mentions:
    "To my Daughter Margaret who married Thomas Vanhorn to have one tenth
    part of the real and Personal Estate only the life Right and at her Death
    to be given to her Daughter Mary Ann Hellings".

    (was Mary Ann the right name? or was this a daughter before being married to Thomas?)
    (or a daughter who died young?)
    (or Ann Ettinger who showed up in 1850?)

    Other records confirm Rachel Helling's mention of the out-of-wedlock
    children of her kids. Don't know who was the father of Mary Ann, but the
    "spouse" I have listed as DontKnow was not really married to Margaret in 1838.
