The family name "Enneper" is not so seldom in the USA. But you can be sure, that
there is a connection with the German families
"Enneper". The name is derived
from an old Farmhouse "Ennepe",
firstly mentioned 1410 ( lease for a monastery
in Cologne). The house is situated at the small
river " Ennepe" close by the
town
Halver
(30.000 inhabitants), North-Rhine-Westfalia , Germany.
I shall show for the present one family branch
in the USA:

USA. His age was 53, so

Germany).

County, Wisconsin, USA", is his
tombstone: Emil Enneper Birth: No. 6, 1856 - Death: May 8, 1938
