NOTES: At first, I expected
that Zalmon Ornertt might connect to the Jacob Orner who was in
New York City in the 1720s, but so far, I haven’t been able to find any
Arner/Orner’s mentioned in any of the lists or other references of the early
Germans in the Schoharie and Mohawk valleys of New York.
If Daniel Arner was
the son of Solomon, then Solomon was from Pennsylvania
and moved to New York circa
1807-09. Of the known Arner/Orner families, Solomon could conceivably be
the son of Ulrich2 Arner (Hans Ulrich1
Arner), of Joseph1 Ahner/Arner/Anner,
of Jacob1 Arnert,
or of Michael2
Orner (Jacob1 Orner). Otherwise, he must belong to an
undocumented family, or be an immigrant himself.
If Daniel Arner was not
the son of Solomon, then Solomon is of unknown origin. In that case, there are
several families that Daniel Arner could possibly belong to, but the most
likely is Johann and Susan (Heinrich) Arner, who are
already believed to have had a son Daniel born 1802-10(M); and who
also had a so-far unknown daughter born about 1804-10 (from 1820 census) who could be Julia Ann Arner.
Possibly Solomon Orner/Arner,
born about 1760-65;
married to ___________? who was born 1765-80.

“Ames”, age 81, born in New
York, living with the same Peter Kniskern in 1850. A
comparison of the census-taker’s handwriting makes it seem unlikely that this
is a misreading of Arner/Arnes, etc. However, since
she is the only “Ames” in Schoharie
County in the 1850 census, it is
possible; and she is the right age to have been Solomon Orner/Arner’s wife.
However, there were some Ames
families in earlier censuses in Schoharie
County.]
