Ons is altijd verteld dat wij in de verte verwant zijn aan Andreas Hofer. Hijzelf had geen kinderen, maar wij zouden afstammen van een broer van hem. Er zouden bij een familie in Kaposvár (Hongarije) bewijzen van zijn. Deze familie deed daar erg geheimzinnig over. Mijn opa Lajos Hofer (1885-1963) heeft zijn naam volgens hun zeggen verandert in Lajos Hoffer(Herendi). Ook gebruikte hij de voornaam Ludwig in plaats van Lajos. Nu ik alle verhalen lees begrijp ik des te meer hoe twijfelachtig dit is, maar wilde het toch delen.

Hi, my mom has all the info on our family line connecting to Andreas Hofer. We met Hofers in Austria when I was 8 and spent some time sharing our common history and seeing where they live. I do not have the names in my possession but if you want to know more about me and my family please feel free to contact us. Vielen dank!

I have to admire your tenacity in putting this web site together.
My dad was John Joseph Witsch, his dad was Max Witsch, the son of Nicholas Witsch who was the son of Mathias Witsch Joseph Witsch and his wife Maria Anna Hofer. I guess that would make Maria Anna Hofer one of my great great grand mothers.
I never knew my grandfather, Max, he died when my dad was only 5 years old.
I know he’s buried in Brooklyn, NY. And I’m planning a visit to his resting place to check out the names on the family plot.

I found this page as I was looking for information on my families heritage. If there is anyone that can provide some background information on the Hofer’s I would appreciate it.

“I am surprised how many Hofers are in the U.S. It is a nice feeling. I just have not researched my family history well enough to make a statement on it one way or another.
Perhaps I should research it more one day when I have more time available.
Greetings, Otto Hofer”
