You are a Benecke? Welcome! Search for other Benecke's here...and mail back to them if you want. (Genealogy not available.) Brought to you by Dr. Mark Benecke, Forensic Biologist, http://www.benecke.com/. If you know something beneckesk, let me know, and I ll gladly include it here. Also, please check all info below first. Thanks a lot and enjoy, wherever you live now!

--> I REALLY REALLY R E A L L Y HAVE NO OTHER INFO ON THE BENECKE FAMILY APART FROM THE ONE GIVEN HERE. PLEASE SEND WHAT YOU HAVE! Thank you. <--

One sure thing ist that the name "Benecke" originates from Prussian (i.e, North-Eastern German) aristocracy since the following entries can be found in aristorcrat research resources: "Benecke in Preußen" (Benecke in Prussia), "Beneckendorf in Pommern" (Beneckendorf in Pomerania), "Beneckendorf in Brandenburg (erloschen)" (Beneckendorf in Brandenburg, family does not exist any more), "Bene(c)kendorff (B.v.Hindenburg) in Preußen" (Benekendorff in Prussia; relating to Paul von Beneckendorff und von Hindenburg = Paul von Hindenburg, born on Oct 2, 1847, (yes, the Zeppelin LZ-129, the largest passenger airship that ever flew was named after him), born as child of Prussian military officer and lord of the manor Robert von Beneckendorff and von Hindenburg, and of the daughter of a medical doctor, Luise, her maiden name: Schwickart. Hindenburg becomes Reichskanzler; he dies on August 2, 1934 -- then Hitler takes over.)

There are plenty of other cool Benecke's, see below! Also, check http://www.familysearch.org/ and http://www.genealogienetz.de/ ENGLISH TEXT for a lot of historic Bene(c)ke's.

Hallo Herr Benecke,
ich war bei Ihrem Vortrag in Waltershausen und fand ihn sehr interessant. Danach habe ich ein wenig auf Ihrer Homepage gelesen und gesehen, daß Sie auch einen Part "Familie" haben. Vielleicht interessieren Sie die angehängten Bilder. Ich betreibe Familienforschung als Hobby und achte sehr auf Namen. Und was sehe ich, als ich über den Eisenacher Friedhof laufe? Im ältesten Teil des Friedhofs habe ich eine Benecke-Grabstelle mit Urne gefunden. Ich habe keine Ahnung, ob die hier Begrabenen etwas mit Ihnen zu tun haben. Vielleicht wissen Sie es.

Dr. Mark,
I, George Benecke of Brooklyn. NY am the nephew of the Walter Benecke in this post. I would like to contact Darius Paris Melisaratos, MD to see if he would like info, pictures etc. of his grandfather. I found that he is an assistant professor at BU but have no way of contacting him. The post is printed below. Thank you, George

Thanks to the wonders of google, i found your web page. My grandfather was Walter Benecke of Brooklyn, NY. I never knew or met him. He and my maternal grandmother (Virginia Zubell) had my mother--Lois Benecke (b. 8/23/1941). My mom was a world class beauty (in all respects) who modelled for Eileen Ford in the late 1950/early 1960s (along with Ali McGraw). She dated Joe DiMaggio and was briefly on "The Price Is Right" as one of the girls that stands besides things. Sadly, she died at the age of 45 from breast cancer (1987). I thought it was funny to see we are "royalty." Surely, my mom was on that international level of beauty and wit.
Good luck in all things Benecke

Guten tag Mark, Lee Benecke, from the UK, here. Please excuse the token offering of German - I have decided to learn German but I am very much in the primitive beginnings of mastering the language.
I realise you've stated on the site EVERYTHING you know about the worldwide Benecke family has been placed there, I just wondered if you knew of a Benecke coat of arms or insignia in circulation?
I have been doing a little research (predominately net research at the moment) for Benecke and come up with a few finds. The social networking bastion Facebook has a couple of 'Benecke' groups and have spoken/seen a few people on there. I also found on Wikipedia references to a Pavel Benecke who was a Danzig privateer/pirate. Check the link - http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pa%C3%BAel_Benecke - being a massive fan of pirates I was quite excited by this. Shows there are more roots to Europe for the Benecke clan! Although from the Facebook group I'm starting to realise there are a lot more Benecke's out there than I ever imagined - from England to Germany to the US and South Africa.
Amazing!
I hope this email finds you well. I have been reading a few articles on your work. Although science was never my strong point in school I find some of your work really interesting.
All the best, Lee Benecke

Hi, As you can see I am a von Benecke that originate from a German family who moved to South Africa around 1890s. I was born in South Africa but now live in England with my family. A member of my family Johan von Benecke did some research and created a family tree for the South African part of the family (Attached, click here). My dada is on line 114 and I am on line 118. IN summary the tree starts in Austria/Germany with 4 brothers who went to South Africa. I am from Gerhardus Ignasius von Benecke born around 1845 in Europe (great great granddad) he had a son Abraham Paulus Stefanus born 1875 in Pretoria South Africa (great granddad) who had a son Abraham Paul Stefanus born 1905 Bergville near Pretoria (granddad). He had several sons but my dad is Wilhelm Adriaan born in 1949 in Weenen South Africa and I was born 1971 in Ermelo South Africa. My son is born in England. I am interested in Ernst von Benecke to see if we are related. Do you have contact details for druid ozone (druidozone at yahoo.com), who made a post in 2004 relating to Ernst?
Attached (Page 8 of the PDS click here) is an extract where Gerhardus Ignasius von Benecke was imprisoned age 53 in 1900 (so probably born around 1847) for High Treason against the English Crown as South Africa was under English rule and he supported the Boers during the Boer war.

You look so much like and act so much like family.
Elton nor Deitrick Benecke never left Germany. I have a photo of Deitrick in a Hussar looking uniform. Trail ends there. I am sure we still have relatives in Germany. Just never found anyone. So we are all stuck with the legacy of "The blue-blood aritocrats of the Germans"...whatever the ancestors meant by that. Hessen Kassel is all I ever heard. Great Grandparents were married in Hannover. People did not say where they were from so much as they said what town they were in when they left. (passenger ship manifests) So I am clueless.
This is Dietrick* in all his glory. My nephew could put on a mustache and the costume today and pass as Dietrick
Good luck in all your endeavors. I will try to stop bugging you every few years.

While searching for something quite unrelated, I ran across the correspondence posted at www.benecke.com/theclan.html. The highlighted term Orangeburg SC was included in a note from Johnie B. Caraway-Matthews of Oklahoma City OK. Before clicking back, I realized that I recognized the names of the set of 2g grandparents about whom she was inquiring. (The history of the German-speaking immigrants to colonial backcountry South Carolina is a highly-specialized hobby of mine, and the ministers there were especially interesting.) The email from Mrs. Caraway-Matthews, dated 9 Jul 2004, did not include her email address. Naturally, you should not send me that type of personal information without her permission, but please feel free to forward my email address to her.
The father of Maria Kathrina Barbara (4 Aug 1778 - 21 Aug 1822) was the Rev. M. Carl Binnicker, A.M. He signed his name on numerous wills, deeds, and church documents as Charles Binnicker, so it is not likely that his immediate family in Germany had used the Benecke spelling. He was a widower with three daughters (including Mary Catherine Barbara) when he married Charity, the widow Ritter, prior to 1790. They had five children prior to his death before Jun 1800. The youngest child, George Simeon Binnicker, was born 1 Jan 1800. Mary Catherine Barbara Binnicker married John Baughman/Bachman on 26 Aug 1800. Binnicker was a Reformed minister who lived in Lexington Co SC after 1780, although his two congregations were both located in Richland Co SC.
The Bachmanns were not Palatines. A large number of immigrants from southwestern Germany were among the earliest residents of backcountry South Carolina, and a very few of those were from the Palatine States. All new German residents were then called "Palatines", but the Swiss immigrants never were--they were called "Swissers" or "Switzers". Hans Ulrich Bachmann (grandfather of John Baughman) arrived in Charleston in Jan 1735 on the ship William, along with my 6g grandfather--who wrote a very colorful letter about the trip, and about what the brand-new wilderness settlement of Saxegotha looked like when they got there. Nearly all of this first group of frontier settlers had left Zürich together in Sep 1734. The historian at Staatsarchiv Zürich did not locate an emigration record for Hans Ulrich Bachmann, but found one for Barbara Bachmann of Altikon, Zürich, who arrived on that ship with her husband Jacob Hagenbuch. Then the Bachmanns and Hagenbuchs selected adjacent properties, and had them surveyed on the same day. Bachmann was undoubtedly from Zürich, so would not have been considered as "Palatine" by the English officials.
Your correspondent may have acquired the Benecke spelling in her family tree via an accident of 19th-century spelling, rather than via mid-18th-century heritage. Those things could happen. Reformed minister Johann Friedrich Dubbert, who preceded the Rev. Charles Binnicker as minister to Appii Forum Church, died in Charleston (as a refugee) in 1781. By 1840, his descendants had forgotten 1) his name, 2) his religious affiliation, and 3) his political preference of Loyalist/Tory. They are certain that they are descended from a Lutheran minister named Charles Dubard, who must have been a Huguenot! The spelling of German surnames got very scrambled once the residents of German-speaking central South Carolina began moving west. If you can put me in touch with Mrs. Caraway-Matthews, I think she'd be happy to hear about the family references I could send her.

Hi Mark,
I thought it was cool too. I found other references to our illustrious Nautical Ancestor noting him as a "Pirate"....I think that takes "cool" to a new level! I like the thought of a dashing, swashbuckling Pirate in the family line up. It adds a little balance to all the intellectuals (yes, that would be you too!) in the family gene pool! After all, some one has to come from the shallow end of the pool!!! :)

Clear Day -- Leader of Royal Prussia (1454/66-1793)
In 1440, Gdansk joined the nearby Hanseatic cities of Elblag and Torun to form the Prussian Confederation, which was supported by Casimir IV of Poland in its rebellion (February 1454) against the Teutonic Order's rule. The resulting ""War of the Cities" or Thirteen Years' War ended with the Order's defeat and its surrender to the Polish crown (Second Treaty of Thorn, October 1466) of its rights in Gdansk Pomerania and the rest of the area subsequently known as Polish or Royal Prussia.
The 15th and 16th centuries brought changes to the city's cultural heritage. We can see these changes in the arts, language, and in Gdansk contributions to the world of science.

Hello, I have been searching for a long time for information on my family.My father Reinhold Karl Heinz Beneke was born on Sept. 21, 1912 in Hildesheim and passed away in 2001 in Brantford, Ontario, Canada.His parents were Heinrich Friedrich Karl Beneke, born August 1, 1887 in Rössing. He died on June 6th 1973. My grandmother's was DorotheaMartha Anna Beneke (Maiden Name: Berger) born May 10, 1888 In Forst an der Lausitz.My grandfather's occupation as listed on my parents Marriage Certificate as "Kellner" (note of webmaster: this means "waiter", or, on a ship, "steward").My parents were married in Wiener Neustadt on April 1, 1939.
I have copy of a "page from the Parish Book for the Rössing Kirchen (Auszüge aus den Kirchenbüchern der ev.=luth. Parochie Rössing).The entries are hand written and somewhat difficult to read but it lists the following, with my grandfather listed at the top.It looks like the Beneke's were in the area of Rösing back at least as far as 1858. Before that time I can't read the handwriting but there is information back to 1814. The paperwork was filled out July 16, 1935.It notes the church as Ev.-luth. which I think is Evangelical Lutheran.
I also have what appears to be a Baptismal Page for my Grandfather which is dated August 14, 1887 from the city of Rösing.
While in Germany my father worked for Daimler-Benz and, my sister says he also worked at Porsche, but I only remember him mentioning Daimler-Benz. He worked on the design and manufacture of airplane engines for the Luftwaffe.He didn't enter the military during the war until near the end when Hitler starting drafting everyone. My grandfather was drafted at the age of 50 +/- to act as a guard of American Prisoners so as to free up the younger guards to fight.
After the war they moved to Toronto, Canada where my father's name was written down as Carl Heinz Beneke.My father went first to get a job then - after he raised enough money he sent for my mother. She came over with my brother, Ingo - from a previous marriage with a Band Leader, Rudy Becker, and my sister Cora who was about 1 year old.Nine months after my mother arrived in Toronto, I was born....a reunion baby. Then my other two sisters, Maya and Elke who were about 11 and 13 years old at the time stayed behind in Germany with friends until my parents could afford to bring them over.When the came to Canada, the newspapers ran a story about their crossing the Atlantic alone to re-unite with their family.
In 1965 my family moved to Utica, Michigan.In 1974 they moved to the Cleveland Ohio area.
It was in Florida (I had moved down in 1973) that I found my first "Beneke" in a phone book.There is was a printer in Clearwater named Beneke.Until that time no matter where we lived, Toronto, Detroit area, and even a little while in Cleveland, Ohio....we found no "Beneke's".
I remember my father telling me stories about "Benekedorf" and that at one time the family name had been "von Benekedorf".He always said Beneke was not that common a name in Germany.Both my parents were only children so I know of no aunts or uncles.
Other than family stories of the war times etc. this is what I have.I would love to learn more.

dear moe -- thanks a lot! this all makes a lot of sense. for some unknown reason, a) some bene(c)kes left the country a while ago to go exclusively to immigrant countries like the U.S., Brazil, Southern Africa, Australia, etc., and b) many if not most of them are engineers, technicians or natural scientists, or they write books that deal with german language science. it s so weird, i start to believe it s genetic, all the travelling and the science ;) -- love and peace from germany! marky mark

Hello Mark - I have only just found your great Benecke Family World Wide. Do you have a little Australian flag that you can add to your collection?
In Sydney Australia there three separate and unrelated families of Benecke that I know of. My great grandfather Christian Benecke was born in Hanover c August 1836 and married in Sydney in 1862. Another Benecke family is descended from one Henry (or Hewrick) Benecke, born Germany c 1854 and married in Sydney in 1885 and the third family is descended from Max Bernard Benecke who was born in Berlin c 1869 and subsequently married in Australia.
And that is just for Sydney. There is also a large group of Beneckes in southern Queensland as well as a scattering of Beneckes in other States. Oh, and there are also some in New Zealand.

Juli 2004 05:03:31 MESZ, To: forensic@benecke.com, Subject: Family tree -- While I was researching my family tree I came across the Benecke name of my great-great great grandmother on my father's side. My grandfather's mother was Mary Elizabeth Amelia Riley Caraway - daughter of Elizabeth Catharine Baughman who was the daughter of John B. Baughman and Mary Catharine Barbara (Benecke) both born in Orangeburg, S.C. and Mary C.B. Benecke was born Aug 4, 1778 and died in Aug. 21, 1822 which leads me to believe she may have been buried in Orangeburg District, S.C. as John Baughman married again in 1829 in Pickens, Alabama before going on to Texas. They had 11 children one was named John Benecke Baughman.
I became curious about the German names in my lineage, which I am a Caraway from the first John Caraway from Yorkshire England in 1674, the great-great-great granddaughter of John & Mary C.B. (Benecke) Baughman. I came across your website seeking more about the Beneckes. I don't know how the Beneckes ended up in Orangeburg, S.C. John B. Baughman was born Oct 24, 1774 in Orangeburg Dist. was the son of Hans Ulrick Baukman from Palinitate Germany born before 1720. Do you know of a German settlement in the Orangeburg District, S.C. Were there Beneckes in that area? Were some of the Beneckes Palatines as well? What I have found in my research some of the Palitines were shipped to America and some were in Ireland. I came to the conclusion that Orangeburg was named after some royality named William of Orange in Palitinate German.
I have found this so very interesting, historically. I had no idea how my ancestors ever made it to America and am amazed how much information there is on the Internet about my lineage. I always thought I was pure Brit until I came across these people from Germany. I somehowâ€šÃ„Ã¶âˆšâ€ âˆšâˆ‚â€šÃ Ã¶Â¬ÃŸfelt all my life that I had some German in my blood, and didn't realizeâ€šÃ„Ã¶âˆšâ€ âˆšâˆ‚â€šÃ Ã¶Â¬ÃŸwho they were. I would love to learn more about how Mary Catharine Barbara Benecke ended up in S.C. and who were her people as I find in my research no evidence of her background except her surname. Surely she didn't drop out of nowhere. All I know is that I come from a long line of protestants - Baptist, I thought. But there is a lot more to the story than I realized.
I hope you might be able to find some leads in your quest as well. I will be glad to hear from you. Yours truly, Johnie B. Caraway-Matthews - Oklahoma City, OK -- Love and Peace, JBM

It makes sense now how I came from a long line of Baptist and even some of the things my grandfather left me with some impressions but I really didn't pay that much attention when he would tell me the stories. I am wondering if my great grandmother Mary Ann Elizabeth Amelia Riley was of the Irish Palatines as her father's name was Hiram Riley and her mother a Baughman. I think Hiram may be a German name? I am really intrigued by all this, I had no idea about this until recently. About time for me to do research on my roots. However, the gene pool stops with me as I have no children to pass this information on to. I guess we are distant cousins?

By the way, there is a mistake in your site. A message said: "Wilhelm Benecke (1912): ...und nochmal eine Kaktee: Mammillaria beneckei var. multiceps Reppenhegen"
But Mammillaria beneckei was also published by Ehrenberg in Bot. Zeit. 2: 833 (1844). So It can't be honouring Wilhelm Benecke 1868-1946, or may be another Wilhelm? His father?
The Benecke I am searching for is probably a botanist (as were Wilhelm Benecke 1868-1946 and Franz Benecke 1857-1903). -- Best regards, Philippe Corman

One thing not mentioned on your website was that Ernst Von Benecke shot himself in the head with one of the dueling pistols he had brought from the castle in Germany. Augusta threw the pistols in the outhouse after that. My grandpa was very close to his grandparents and told me all the details and even passed down to us Ernst and Augusta's bible and prayer book. I have always been very curious about who is the Baron Benecke and where was the castle. I do believe the royal orchestra story is correct.

Subject: Benecke Familiengeschichte; Date: Fri, 11 Apr 2003 12:30:59 +0200; From: "rae-benecke" ; To: forensic@benecke.com
Hallo, berühmtester derzeit lebender Benecke-Namensträger,
Ich heiße auch so und ich habe einiges an Familiengeschichte, die vielleicht den einen oder anderen interessiert.
Mein Name ist Hubertus Benecke. Ich habe neun Kinder, davon sechs potentielle Namensträger, ob es so kommen wird, wird man sehen.
Mein Vater ist Walter Benecke, geb.1928. Mein Großvater war Dr. Friedrich Benecke, geb. 1896, verstorben 1968, verheiratet mit Else, geb. Schlenzig.
Er war der jüngste von 4 Brüdern, Ernst Benecke,geb. 1890, verst.? in den USA, möglicherweise in Milwaukee. Arthur Benecke, geb. 1893, verst. 1933; Albert Benecke, Korvettenkapitän zur See, geb. 1894, verst. 1943.
Von diesen 4 Benecke- Männern ist nur ein Benecke gezeugt worde, mein Vater Walter Benecke.
Vater dieser 4 Männer war Walter E.T. Benecke, geb. 1858 in Manchester, England. Er verstarb 1928 in Oberfranken. Er war verheiratet mit Emma geb. Keyl aus einem Weingroßhändlerhaus in Frankfurt a.M. und Bordeaux, (geb. 1860). Vater meines Urgroßvaters, der nur zwei Schwestern, aber keinen Bruder hatte, war John Hermann Benecke, geb. in Deptford, England, 8.9.1817, verst. Oktober 1880 in Oberfranken. John Hermann Benecke war verheiratet mit Katharina, geb Eichhoff, geb.1828, verst. am 29.03.1868 in Oberfranken.
Die Eheleute John Hermann und Katharina Benecke sind im Hauptfriedhof in Frankfurt a.M. beigesetzt.
John Hermann hatte zwei Brüder, Ernst Benecke(* 1814, gest. 1894 in Bievres (nahe Paris) und Alfred Benecke *1819, verst 1900 in Cannes, verheiratet mit Ady Souchay aus der Frankfurter Patrizierfamilie Souchay.(sog. Denmarkhiller Linie). Mit der Familie Souchay gab es eine Vielzahl von Verbindungen, auch zu bekannten Personen. Der Senator der Frankfurter Bürgerschaft und Abgeordenter der Pauls- Kirchen-Versammlung, Eduard Souchay war Stiefvater von Katharina Benecke, geb Eichhoff. Ebenfalls über Souchay kommt Verwandtschaft zu Felix Mendelssohn Bartholdy, dessen Tochter Charles Victor Benecke geheiratet hat, einen Vetter I.Grades von John Hermann Benecke.Ebenfalls aus einer Verbindung des Hauses Benecke /Souchay stammt Helene Weber, geb. Fallenstein, die Mutter des Ökonomen Max Weber. Zu Ernst Benecke ist noch zu sagen, daß er heute dadurch recht berühmt geworden ist, daß er im Jahre 1852 eine große Reise nach Ägypten unternahm und dort als einer der ersten überhaupt Fotos schoß. Ein bekannter amerikanischer Galerist, der sich auf alte Fotos spezialisiert hat, hat bereits Ausstellungen in New York und in Paris organisiert.
Vater der drei genanten Brüder war Friedrich Benecke, geb.am 29.6.1774 in Hannover, gestorben am 20.02.1841 in Goslar. Verheiratet in erster Ehe von 1810 bis 1813 mit Nanette Lüdert( verst.1813), in zweiter Ehe mit Wilhelmine Funck aus Bückeburg, der Mutter der drei Beneckesöhne.
Friedrich Benecke hatte wiederum zwei Brüder, nämlich Lewin Anton Wilhelm Benecke und Johann Heinrich Benecke. Letztgenannter ist der "Stammvater" der auch heute noch bekannten und wirkungsreichen "Otto Benecke Stiftung".
Erstgenannter Lewin Anton Wilhelm ist "Stammvater" des Heidelberger Paläontologie Professors Friedrich Wilhelm Benecke (Enkel des o.g.) und selbst Wissenschaftler und Theologe gewesen.
Vater dieser drei Beneckes war Ernst Phillip Benecke, Besitzer einer Wachstuchfabrik in Hannover. Von diesem Herrn besitze ich ein sehr würdiges Ölbild mit Allongeperücke.Von fast allen weiteren Beneckes habe ich ebenfalls Ölbilder oder Fotos. Auch besitze ich einen sehr weit verzweigten Stammbaum.
Für heute soll es einmal genug sein. Wer Interesse hat oder Beziehungen bzw. Verwandtschaft erkennt, möge sich bitte rühren.
Mit freundlichen Grüßen
Hubertus Benecke

My mother was a Beneke. What I know of the family history is that Johann Heinrich came to America around 1880 and settled near New Albin Iowa. He was born 9.1.1840 at Eddelstorg which belongs to the parish of Altenmedingen, the son of Jurgen Christoph Benecke, Hauswirt at Eddelstrof, Eddelstrof 11.1.1799 son of Heinrich Christoph Benecke and Maria Margaretha Geffert; Altemedingen 20.11.1829 Catharine Sophie Riest, Bostelwiebeck 6.9.1805, daughter of Jurgen Heinrich R. and Catharine Elisabeth Geffert. There were at least 2 other children, Catharina Dorothea was born 23.7.1830, died 19.9.1830, and Jurgen Heinrich Christoph born 18.4.1932, died 9.4.1851. If any of that sounds like something you may know anything about, I'd love hearing from you. Lila Burmeister, daughter of Howard and Marie (Beneke) Solberg June 8, 2001

My name is Bishop Beneke and I am in the U.S. tracing the Beneke family tree! I got most of your e-mail addresses off of Google.com - I have researched 53 pages that have references to the word "Beneke" and there are more than 100 pages for me to go...but anyway...that's how I got your e-mail addresses. Basically what I am doing is trying to get as many of your direct lines as possible...I have gotten lots of lines from families here in the states and I have actually been able to match a few of the families up to where their great great grandfathers were brothers and I have been real good about keeping in touch with the people I correspond with - passing the information I find onto them. Just to give you a little of my history so that you know I'm for real...I'm 28 years old, I have been working on this family tree since 1996 - I started it one day out of boredom and now I don't even begin to have the time to work on it, but I have to say...the Beneke family is so facinating I can't seem to let it go. My father and my grandfather both share the name Edward Beneke and my great grandfather and great great grandfather both share the name Henry Beneke with no middle name. My direct line came over from Germany with my Great Grandfather and the part of Germany that I have been able to trace back to is Wertheim. Every single Beneke family that I have corresponded with here in the states has come from Germany...I find that very facinating...I recently received an e-mail from a Beneke there in Germany who old me that as stories have it....there was a village there named Benekendorf and that in former times it was common that people got their family names from the place they lived. He thinks that Benekendorf was somewhere in Northern Germany. He also told me that Beneke comes from an old German word which means hard oak or oaktree. This is the kind of information hat makes it so much fun for me to trace our tree! So, if you wouldn't mind, please e-mail me and what I'm looking for is Mothers, fathers, siblings, Aunts, Uncles and cousins ...you name it. I'm looking for full names, birth and death dates and if you know where they came from, It would elp in my search as well. I will keep in touch will any and all of you who can help me out and let you know how I'm coming along with my searches! Thank you so much for your help and please let me know if you have any questions! my e-mail is bbeneke@aol.com - Thanks again - Bishop Beneke

Subject: Beneke family tree research, Date: Wed, 12 Sep 2001 11:54:54 -0500, From: Francisco Beneke fbeneke@fratel.net --- Hello all! I received a message form Bishop Beneke ('bbeneke@aol.com') and I am sending you the same information I had answered to him: I was born in 1957 and have lived all my life in El Salvador. My starting point for this investigation in El Salvador, is the birth certificate of my great grandfather (A very old document handwritten in German and very hard to understand).His name was Johann Heinrich Theodor Beneke, born in Germany (Cannot read the name of the city but probably is Bremen) on 18 Sept 1868, died 1954 in El Salvador. He came to Central America and as far as I know he had a brother whose name was possibly Julius (Julius did not came to Central America and went directly from Germany to U.S.A. on a date that I cannot confirm around 1890).Their parents were Christian Julius Heinrich Beneke, born 19 Apr 1841 in Celle-Blumlage ???? died 30 Jan 1903 in Bremen; on 30 Nov1867, in Bremen, he married Lucie Catharine Magdalene (or Margarethe) Kasten born 13 Dec 1844 died 6 March 1922 in Bremen. Is it possible for you to find a link between the Beneke family you know and my ancestors? I hope we could help each other in this research. Best regards, Francisco Beneke

Benecke Co. in Brazil -- A Benecke foi fundada em 10 de setembro de 1953 pelos irmãos Kurt Benecke e Heinrich Benecke, iniciando suas atividades em um prédio de 65 metros quadrados, localizado na rua Benjamin Constant, em Timbó . Os negócios se restringiam à manutenção de máquinas e bombas para água, desde manuais à motorizadas. Mas o passaporte para a modernização já reservava o ano de 1954 para o ingresso definitivo no setor madeireiro. Neste ano a empresa iniciava a fabricação da primeira estufa para madeira serrada, diversificando a produção em vários modelos e tamanhos. Solidificando sua imagem no ramo, em 1964 a Benecke lançava dois novos produtos, as Juntadeiras de Lâminas de madeira para cobertura e Batedeiras de Cola, mantendo a fabricação de estufas. Até 1975, a empresa inovou em modelos para estufa chegando a concepção da linha completamente metálica. A partir daquele ano a empresa optou por uma redefinição do processo produtivo. A palavra de ordem era combinar diversificação com qualidade. Seguindo esta nova mentalidade, a Benecke passou a fabricar também Secadores Contínuos para Lâminas de Madeira, Secadores Contínuos para Pasta Mecânica, Secadores Contínuos para Talos de Fumo e Caldeiras a Vapor, sendo este último com tecnologia alemã. Hoje proprietária de um parque fabril de 13.000 metros quadrados de área construída, em um terreno de 87.500 metros quadrados, localizado no distrito industrial do município de Timbó, a empresa com 45 anos de existência, ostenta uma marca forte e desejada pelo mercado madeireiro, cobrindo comercialmente 80% do mercado nacional e 90% do mercado sulamericano.

Diese Regelung ist insofern verschärft worden, daß es nun Voraussetzung ist, daß die Beiträge aufgrund einer Vereinbarung über die Herabsetzung künftigen Arbeitslohns erbracht werden. Der Anspruch auf das 13. Monatsgehalt entsteht aber zeitanteilig nach den vollen Monaten der Beschäftigung im Kalenderjahr. Wird also im Dezember die Zahlung des 13.

Bölkow-Entwicklungen KG Stuttgart, Ottobrunn: Die Panzerabwehrrakete BÖ 810 COBRA. "1953 besuchte mich Erich Heimann, der Herausgeber der in Genf erscheinenden Luftfahrtzeitschrift »Interavia« mehrmals in Stuttgart. Bald kam er auf sein eigentliches Anliegen zu sprechen. Die europäische Luftfahrt brauche in Zukunft wieder deutsche Beteiligung. Schließlich gebe es ja auch Verhandlungen über eine Beteiligung der Deutschen an der EVG (Europäische Verteidigungsgemeinschaft). Seiner Ansicht nach müsse in einem solchen Falle die deutsche Industrie an Rüstungsentwicklungen beteiligt werden. Zwischen den Großmächten werde sich bald ein Gleichgewicht des Schreckens einstellen, was die Atomwaffen betreffe. In der konventionellen Rüstung hingegen würden die Russen dann eine katastrophale Überlegenheit auf dem Gebiet der gepanzerten Fahrzeuge aurweisen. Man müsse, so Heimann, sich auf dem Gebiet der Panzerabwehr engagieren. Auch von anderer Seite wurde ich bedrängt. Theodor Benecke, damals Mitarbeiter der späteren »Dienststelle Blank«, lud mich nach Bad Liebenzell ein, wo wir uns zusammen mit Günther Schöner, der im deutsch-französischen Institut St. Louis arbeitete, trafen. Beide waren auch der Meinung, daß man auf dem Gebiet der Panzerabwehr etwas tun müsse. Ich schlug vor, eine möglichst billige Panzerabwehrwaffe aus Kunststoffteilen zu entwickeln, die preiswert und leicht sein könnte. Heimann brachte mich mit dem Präsidenten der Firma Oerlikon-Bührle zusammen. Das Schweizer Unternehmen erklärte sich bereit, die Antriebe für unsere Panzerabwehrrakete zu bauen, auch die Gefechtsköpfe. Unsere Mannschaft sollte die Flugkörper sowie die gesamte Steuerung und Fernsteuerung entwickeln. Staatlicherseits gab es damals noch kein Geld für solche Pläne. Da nahm es sich wie ein Glücksfall aus, daß ich 1954 den Hamburger Finanzier Wolfgang Essen kennenlernte, der meine wehrtechnischen Vorschläge wichtig nahm. Mit Essens Zusage wagten wir uns an die Aufgabe heran, eine leichte Panzerabwehrrakete zu entwickeln, die von Infanteristen im Gelände getragen werden konnte. Wirtschaftliche Basis war ein Konsortialvertrag. Aus den Anfangsbuchstaben entstand dann auch der Name des Waffensystemes: COBRA = Contraves, Oerlikon, Bölkow und Rakete. 1956 begann die Erprobung in der Schweiz. Ende des Jahres 1956 gelang es, mit dem Bundesministerium der Verteidigung einen Vertrag über die Lieferung der ersten 2000 COBRA abzuschließen. Nun brauchten wir dringend eine Fertigungsstätte, doch kein Betrieb interessierte sich für eine Rakete aus gewickelten Papprohren mit angeklebten Flügeln, ein wenig Elektronik und aufgewickelten Steuerdrähten. So haben wir dann selbst die Produktion in Nabern aufgezogen."

(6. Mai 2001) Novum bei Olympia: Dreifach-Triumph für Rumäniens Turnerinnen -- Von Rainer Benecke, dpa -- Sydney - Drei Grazien aus der Turn-Hochburg Rumänien und ein russisches Playboy-Model schrieben am Donnerstag im Vierkampf- Finale von Sydney Geschichte. Das Trio mit Boden-Weltmeisterin Andrea Raducan (38,893), Sprung-Olympiasiegerin Simona Amanar (38,642) und Mehrkampf-Weltmeisterin Maria Olaru (38,581) sorgte für den ersten Dreifach-Triumph bei Olympischen Spielen. Swetlana Schorkina (Russland), mit einer Vornote von 39,005 Favoritin auf ihr erstes olympisches Mehrkampf-Gold, patzte gleich zwei Mal und landete schließlich nur auf dem elften Platz (37,929).

EXPRESS Köln, May 14, 2001 (elektronisch): Ergebnis gegenüber Atlanta verbessert -- Deutsche Volleyball-Frauen Olympia-Sechste -- Sydney -- Sydney war für das deutsche Volleyball die weite Reise wert. Mit Rang sechs und damit ihrem besten Resultat seit sechs Jahren schloss die Frauen-Nationalmannschaft am Donnerstag das olympische Turnier ab und verschaffte sich international wieder Respekt. Trotz der 1:3 (19:25, 19:25, 25:22, 18:25)-Niederlage im letzten Platzierungsspiel gegen China war Werner Graf von Moltke in Champagnerlaune. "Für den Volleyball in Deutschland ist das ein hervorragendes Ergebnis. Dieses Abschneiden bestätigt die Vergabe der Weltmeisterschaft 2002 an uns. In zwei Jahren können wir noch weiter vorstoßen als hier", sagte der Präsident des Deutschen Volleyball-Verbandes (DVV) beinahe übermütig, nachdem das Resultat von Atlanta 1996 um zwei Plätze verbessert war. Den ersten Lohn darf der DVV bereits im kommenden Jahr einstreichen. Der Weltverband FIVB gab den deutschen Frauen grünes Licht für die Teilnahme am World-Grand-Prix. (...) Geheimnis des Erfolges ist für Tanja Hart das gute Betriebsklima in der Truppe. "Bei der WM 1998 in Japan waren wir eine reine Zweckgemeinschaft. Jetzt haben wir uns alle viel besser kennen gelernt", sagte die Zuspielerin vom DJK Karbach. Auch ohne die angeschlagenen Christina Schultz und Angelina Grün, für die Judith Sylvester und Christina Benecke in die Stamm-Sechs rückten, gab das Team zum Abschluss noch einmal alles. Doch nach dem gewonnenen dritten Satz war im achten Turnierspiel innerhalb von zwölf Tagen die Luft raus. May 14, 2001
Express Köln, 14. Mai 2001 (Papier) -- Pokemon-Mörder -- Sein perversenes Tagebuch. Von Michael Kerst. Duisburg - Der irre Kindermörder von Homberg -- immer neue grauenhafte Details kommen ans Licht. Jetzt berichtete Kripo-Beamte Hermann M. von dem geheimen Tagebuch, das die Ermittler im Kleiderschrank des Pokemon-Mörders Oliver S. gefunden haben. Dem EXPRESS liegen die Aufzeichnungen vor, in denen der Mörder des neunjährigen Sedat A (er wurde mit Pokemon-Münzen gelockt) über die Morde an Prominenten und Menschen aus seinem bekanntenkreis fantasiert. 15 ekelhafte Morder hat sich der 24-jährige gelernte Koch in einem sogenannten "Roman" ausgedacht, den er im November 2000 (ganz kurz vor dem Mord an Sedat) aufeschrieben hat. Opfer sind Mädchen oder weiblich wirkende Jungen -- mit fast allen hat die "Romanfigur" Oliver vor der Ermordung brutalen Sex. Jeden der fiktiven Morde belbildert er mit Ausschintte aus Jugendzeitschriften, aber auch mit Schnappschüssen aus seinem Bekanntenkreis. Für jedes Opfer denkt er sich eine neue Methode aus: Teenie-Star Taylor Hansen auf der Toilette erdrosselt, Zac Hanson per Fleischermesser erdolcht, Tal Ofraim erwürgt, Aaron Carter auf der Bühne erschossen. Im Kapitel 9 lässt Oliver sich als Baysitter anstellen, erschießt das eine Mädchen, vergewaltigt und erwürgt das andere. (...) "Mein Mandant ist total krank", sagt Rechtsanwalt Siegmund Benecke, der Oliver S. vor dem Landgericht Duisburg vertritt. Der Täter selbst schreibt am Schluss seiner grauenvollen Aufzeichnungen: "Nach etwa zwei Wochen stellte sich Oliver der Polizei und gestand alles. Oliver war und ist ein hoffnungsloser Fall für die Klapse." May 14, 2001

Neue Osnabrücker Zeitung (NOZ), 6. Dezember 2000: Stadt Osnabrück: Das "Knusperhäuschen" als Fall für das Landgericht. rll In Osnabrück spricht man vom „Knusperhäuschen“, in den Akten des Ordnungsamts wird der Betrieb als „Mädchenwohnheim“ geführt. Um das angeblich schon 112 Jahre alte Etablissement an der Rheiner Landstraße ging es gestern in einem Prozess vor dem Schöffengericht. Anlass war eine anonyme Anzeige. Der Vorwurf: Förderung der Prostitution. Das Ergebnis: Eine Geldbuße, die zwei Kinderheimen zugute kommen soll. Prostitution wird vom Staat geduldet, die Förderung der Prostitution steht dagegen unter Strafe. In Gerichtsurteilen und juristischen Kommentaren gibt es sehr unterschiedliche Auslegungen des betreffenden Paragraphen 180 a. Da wird zum Teil schon die Einrichtung eines Whirlpools oder das Aufhängen eines Kondomautomaten als Förderung der Prostitution angesehen, ebenso das Anbringen einer Leuchtreklame oder das Inserieren in einer Zeitung. Darauf wies Richter Klaus-Peter Benecke hin, ohne sich dieser Sicht der Dinge anzuschließen. Einen Whirlpool soll es auch im „Knusperhäuschen“ geben, wie Oberstaatsanwalt Norbert Mayer vermerkte. Doch die von ihm vertretene Anklage richtete sich vor allem auf den Vorwurf, die 61-jährige Inhaberin habe die Preise für die Dienstleistungen festgelegt und mit einem EC-Kartenlesegerät den elektronischen Zahlungsverkehr kontrolliert. Dafür lieferten drei als Zeugen geladene „Mädels“ jedoch keine Bestätigung. Im Gegenteil: Sie hätten die Preise untereinander festgelegt. Von 400 DM für eine Stunde und 250 DM für eine halbe Stunde war die Rede. Die Prostituierten berichteten, dass sie pro Tag 170 DM Miete für eines der sieben Zimmer entrichtet hätten, außerdem eine „Getränkepauschale“ von 60 bis 110 DM für ein halbes oder ganzes Freierstündchen. Die Miete sei nur fällig gewesen, wenn das Zimmer auch tatsächlich in Anspruch genommen wurde. Übereinstimmend hielten die Damen fest, in dem Lokal sei alles sauber und korrekt zugegangen, und die Inhaberin habe ihnen niemals Gäste zugewiesen. Zudem habe sie stets auf gültige Papiere und wöchentliche Untersuchungen beim Gesundheitsamt geachtet. Rechtsanwalt Jens Meggers, der die angeklagte Inhaberin verteidigte, sprach von einem Bordell, das „in jeder Beziehung anständig“ und überhaupt „vorbildlich“ sei. Ganz im Gegensatz zur illegalen Prostitution in manchen Wohnungen. Das öffentliche Bewusstsein habe sich gegenüber dem horizontalen Gewerbe verändert: „Wir alle wissen, dass ein solcher Betrieb gesellschaftlich wichtig ist.“ Das zeige auch ein Urteil des Berliner Verwaltungsgerichts vom vergangenen Freitag, nach dem die Prostitution nicht mehr als sittenwidrig anzusehen sei. Auch Oberstaatsanwalt Mayer äußerte Verständnis: Die Rechtsprechung hinke vielleicht der gesellschaftlichen Wahrnehmung hinterher. Er schlug vor, das Verfahren unter der Auflage einzustellen, dass die Angeklagte 40000 DM an eine gemeinnützige Einrichtung zahlt. Damit werde auf der einen Seite dem fraglichen Paragraphen Rechnung getragen, zum anderen einem Verstoß gegen das Ausländergesetz. Zwei Damen, die sich an der Rheiner Landstraße eingemietet hatten, waren ohne gültige Arbeits- bzw. Aufenthaltserlaubnis angetroffen worden. Die Höhe der Geldzahlung begründete Mayer mit den Einkommensverhältnissen der 61-jährigen Angeklagten. Da sie nicht die Absicht hatte, den Streit bis nach Karlsruhe zu tragen, willigte sie in den juristischen Deal ein. Die 40000 DM sollen nun an zwei Osnabrücker Kinderheime aufgeteilt werden.

WAZ (Westdeutsche Allgemeine Zeitung), 17. September 2001, Buer: Eine Kerze für die Opfer Meditations-Gottesdienst in Erle 200 Teilnehmer Terror hat unsere Welt erschüttert. Trauer empfinden wir. Angst geht um, mit diesen Worten begannen Pfarrer Christoph Funke und Stefan Benecke ihre Predigt Samstagabend in der Dreifaltigkeitskirche an der Cranger Straâ€šÃ„Ã¶âˆšâ€ âˆšâˆ‚â€šÃ„Ã¶âˆšâ€ Â¬Â¥e 327 in Erle. Rund 200 Gläubige waren in die Kirche gekommen, um in dem Meditationsgottesdienst gemeinsam der zahlreichen Opfer des Terroranschlags in den USA in stiller Trauer zu gedenken und für den Weltfrieden zu beten. Wir wollen gemeinsam versuchen, unsere Trauer, Wut und ängste zu verarbeiten, denn niemand wird die Bilder der vergangenen Tage vergessen können, sagte Benecke. Hinzu komme die allgegenwärtige Angst, dass der Vergeltungsschlag der USA eskaliert. In dieser Andacht wollen wir vor Gott klagen und ihn um seinen Frieden für die Opfer, die Angehörigen und die Welt bitten, erklärte der Pfarrer. Als Zeichen der Betroffenheit und Anteilnahme entzündete jeder, der in das Gotteshaus gekommen war, eine Kerze und stellte sie unter das Kreuz im Altarbereich: Wir wollen ein Licht in dieser Dunkelheit entzünden, forderten die beiden Pfarrer die Gemeinde-Mitglieder auf.

New Zealand v South Africa Test Matches -- The selection of four women and seven men to play in the four test matches against the first South African team ever to tour New Zealand must have been rather difficult for selectors Greg Gloyn, Bruce Reynolds, John Cooper and Ann Swan. In recent years, there has been a lucrative overseas market for our best polocrosse ponies thus leaving some of our top players without the top horses necessary for consideration for selection. So, the selectors were faced with a slight shortage of internationally experienced players and horses. Whatever their dilemma might have been, they ended up with teams that looked well balanced and, while five of the players were new caps and two of those were under 21, they were all experienced in national competitions. The players selected were: Sue Hill, Megan Gilbert, Shane Hill and Wayne Hundley (Waikato), Pascale Gower and Dean Gower (King Country), Calley Mullany (Poverty Bay), Shaye Williams and Jamie Morice (Auckland Provincial), Tony Schrafft and Russell Tye (Central Plateau). The four tests were played over two weekends and the mixed game kicked off the competition on the first Saturday afternoon. The New Zealand women lined up with Sue Hill at one, Megan Gilbert, two, and Pascale Gower was the three, reserve Calley Mullany. The very experienced South African ladies were Julia Pilbeam, Anneli Cooper and Liesel Du Plessis with LeeAnn van Wyk reserve. South Africa took an early 2-0 lead but the New Zealand ladies came back at them to end the chukka 3-4 down.
The line up for the men's chukka was, Dean Gower, Russell Tye and Shane Hill, Jamie Morice reserve. The South African's fielded Charl Du Plessis, Keith Mason, Sean O Sullivan and reserve, Brent von Benecke. The South African's scored first again, but then a serious infringement by a South African player, and the resulting successful penalty, seemed to give the New Zealand players confidence and New Zealand were ahead by 7-6 at the end of the second chukka.

Thanks to the wonders of google, i found your web page. My grandfather was Walter Benecke of Brooklyn, NY. I never knew or met him. He and my maternal grandmother (Virginia Zubell) had my mother--Lois Benecke (b. 8/23/1941). My mom was a world class beauty (in all respects) who modelled for Eileen Ford in the late 1950/early 1960s (along with Ali McGraw). She dated Joe DiMaggio and was briefly on "The Price Is Right" as one of the girls that stands besides things. Sadly, she died at the age of 45 from breast cancer (1987). I thought it was funny to see we are "royalty." Surely, my mom was on that international level of beauty and wit.
Good luck in all things Benecke

http://www.geocities.com/discoaz/zintroduction.html: An introduction to disco -- The Studio 54 was opened in April 1977, just off Broadway, at 254 W. 54th Street, Manhattan, New York. The club was owned by Steve Rubbel and Ian Schrager, who were previously active in the gastronomy field. Bouncer Mark Benecke made sure that the right people would be let in. This did not mean that you needed to be a VIP in order to make it through the doors of the Studio 54. The crowd was a concotion of actors, average people and personalities. Some examples? Michael Jackson, Truman Capote, Andy Warhol, Calvin Klein, Brooke Shields, Bianca Jagger, etc. Even former US president Jimmy Carter went to the Studio and confessed to have spent an unforgettable night. It was the admission procedure that made this club so famous. In fact, some people were willing to do anything in order to get in: but only a few managed it. Studio 54 was similar to a fairy tale, with a range of characters selected for each night's grand party. Celebrities posed for the paparazzi, often disappearing from sight into the famous basement of the club, where the best parties used to take place. The so called "gray people" were turned awy by Steve Rubbel. Gaining entry into Studio 54 became an almost spiritual quest for many, longing to be a part of the "beautiful crowd". Even her was turned away from the exclusive club one night! Celebrity status itself did not guarantee entry at all. The two original dj's at the club, hired before it openned, were Nicky Siano and Richie Kazcor, and stayed for the first two years. DJ Richie Kazcor played the opening night.

2-C Date: Wed, 21 Jan 1998 09:59:45 -0800; From: Doug Case -- Subject: *QP*: CNN tackles "Don't Ask, Don't Tell" and sexual harassment. FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE. January 20, 1998. CONTACT: Rick Perera, CNN Impact (404) 827-2755. CNN "IMPACT" TO TACKLE "DON'T ASK, DON'T TELL" AND SEXUAL HARASSMENT. ATLANTA - With the recent case of a Navy seaman facing discharge over his America Online profile, the military's "Don't Ask, Don't Tell" policy on homosexuality is once again in the spotlight. But there's a twist to the story that has rarely been told. The policy on gays serves as a ready weapon against military women. Those who reject the advances of a male superior run the risk of being investigated as lesbians. "Impact," CNN's weekly news magazine, takes on the subject this Sunday, January 25. Correspondent Art Harris talks with women affected by the policy, and reveals internal military documents that show the Pentagon has long been aware of the threat. "Time and time again," said Michelle Benecke of Servicemembers Legal Defense Network, "when women report sexual abuse, they find that their commands respond, not by investigating the complaint of sexual abuse, but by investigating them, and their private lives." Ask former Navy seaman Amy Barnes, who was brought up on charges of lesbianism - two weeks after rebuffing a male superior at an on-shore bar. Unlike others in her position, she fought back with a lawsuit. But it was too late to save her career. Ask retired Air Force Captain Barbara Wilson, who served from 1949 to 1971. "When women first went in service," she said, "the adage was that only queers or prostitutes went in service. And I think that has just carried down from generation to generation." Correspondent Art Harris, himself a former Navy lieutenant, j.g., offers an unflinching portrayal of sex and power in the U.S. military. "Impact," hosted by Bernard Shaw and Stephen Frazier, is broadcast each Sunday at 10:00 p.m. Eastern time and again at 10:00 p.m. Pacific time, on CNN.

He received the Nobel Prize for Chemistry in 1934 for his discovery of deuterium, and made key scientific contributions to the development of the atomic bomb during World War II. He conducted fundamental work on the structure of atoms and molecules, the thermodynamic properties of gases, the separation of isotopes, and the chemical problems involved in the origin of the earth, the moon, and the solar system. He was also an advocate of nuclear arms control, working actively with other scientists to promote global cooperation and to prevent nuclear proliferation and conflict. Among Urey's teaching positions were posts at Montana State University, Johns Hopkins University, Columbia University, the University of Chicago, and the University of California, San Diego. The papers span the years 1929 to 1981 and are organized into ten series: 1) BIOGRAPHICAL MATERIALS, 2) GENERAL CORRESPONDENCE, 3) SUBJECT FILES, 4) WRITINGS, 5) WRITINGS OF OTHERS, 6) PERSONAL EPHEMERA, 7) PHOTOGRAPHS, 8) AWARDS, 9) LUNAR ORBITER PHOTOS AND CHARTS, and 10) ORIGINALS OF PRESERVATION PHOTOCOPIES. The collection contains significant correspondence with Urey's fellow scientists, including Albert Einstein, Enrico Fermi, J. Robert Oppenheimer, Leo Szilard, and Edward Teller. Absent from the collection are most materials relating to Urey's wartime work on the atomic bomb, records of his activities at Johns Hopkins and Columbia Universities, and documentation of his personal life.] June 3, 2001

When the Dorseys split, McKinley stayed with Jimmy Dorsey, although he was heavily recruited by other band leaders, including Tommy Dorsey and Benny Goodman. He became known as a vocalist as well as drummer in Jimmy Dorsey's band, and had Bing Crosby name him "one of the ten best vocalists in the country" (All-American Band Leaders, July, 1942). In 1939, at the suggestion of booking agent Willard Alexander, McKinley joined forces with Will Bradley (formerly Wilber Schwitsenberg) to form the "Will Bradley Orchestra featuring Ray McKinley." With McKinley on vocals and drums, the band's several hits included Beat Me Daddy, Eight to the Bar, Down the Road Apiece and Celery Stalks at Midnight. McKinley left in 1942 to form his own group, The Ray McKinley Orchestra. The band was very well-recieved, but broke up after only 8 months due to external factors including the outbreak of the second World War. McKinley placed many of his players with the Tommy Dorsey Orchestra just before he was drafted. McKinley's old association with Glenn Miller paid off when Glenn took him on for his famous Army Air Force Band. McKinley says that Glenn Miller's band "was one of the two best musical organizations I had anything to do with as a player" (Modern Drummer). The Glenn Miller Band was sent to England in June, 1944. After Miller disappeared in 1944, McKinley fronted the band until its return to the United States in 1945. At this point, McKinley handed the reins to Tex Benecke and formed a new Ray McKinley Orchestra.

We were confused, desperate for flowers -- but which flowers? We don’t know azaleas from zinnias, and how could we be sure our flowers would say “I love you,” and not “Deepest sympathy in your bereavement”? We were headed up Central Avenue pondering our options when we stopped right on Tex Benecke’s star amid the “Walk of Fame.” There, right beside Tex, at the foot of the San Carlos Hotel, we found our solution--Daffodils, the virtual support group for the florally challenged. Our leader, a kind and knowledgeable counter lady, made picking posies practically painless. Patiently walking us through the arrangement, stem by stem, she suggested gorgeous blooms far too exotic for us to name. We left with an armful of beauties, made our delivery and were proclaimed a hero. You might say we went into Daffodils, and came out smelling like a rose. (http://www.phoenixnewtimes.com/bop/1996/goods10.html) /// I was born in Kansas City, Missouri on December.19, 1929. My father liked music and brought home an old clarinet when I was 8. It became a trombone at 13 (against my wishes, preferring drums or trumpet), but that also led to an infatuation with blank music paper. So at 14, I became a professional arranger/copyist, writing for local dance bands. In 1941, I heard the original Basie Band at the Tower Theater in Kansas City with Lester, Jo Jones, all of the greats. (...) When I was 15, I heard Debussy and Stravinsky for the first time and decided that composing was also a necessary thing to do. So I went to KC Conservatory for 3 years, and came out to play piano with Orrin Tucker then 3 months in Chicago (playing with Tiny Kahn, Lou Levy, Frank Rosolino, etc.) and 3 months in San Francisco, where I mainly gained weight and heard Webern's Symphony, Op. 21, declaring it the only perfect music I had ever heard. After a short stint in the Army, (a 6 month mistake on both our parts), I joined Tex Benecke, courtesy of Mel Lewis, playing piano. I left Tex to work with folks that could help me get my union card; Ray Mckinley, Louis Prima, as a "house musician" at Stuyvesant Casino, playing with Coleman Hawkins, Buck Clayton, Ben Webster and one memorable night with George Wallington, Pops Foster and Zutty Singleton, a rhythm section to remember!

Benecke Family Cemetery & Hinze Family Cemetery & Brookfield Twp., Waukesha County Wisconsin. Web Page: http://www.linkstothepast.com/waukesha/1.html (accessed Nov 3, 2002) -- "I put these two cemeteries on the same page, since the listings for both are very short. BENECKE FAMILY CEMETERY: The cemetery was established on the Benecke farm in 1851 for the Ernst and Augusta Meininger Benecke family.
Last known burial was in 1929. There were 12 known burials in this cemetery. In 1960, the remains were moved to Prairie Home Cemetery in Waukesha Twp. Wisconsin Hills Junior High was built on the cemetary site. This school was later converted to Wisconsin Hills Elemetary School. In 1999, the school was converted to Wisconsin Hills Middle School. There were a number of tombstones left in the woods north of the school. From a newspaper clipping, Waukesha Freeman circa 1979 Ernst & Augusta (Meininger) Benecke established the cemetery around September 1851 to bury their 6 month old daughter Mary. Within 10 years, they had buried 4 other children there: Matilda, Age 5, March 1853 -- Herman, Age 4, March 1853 (5 days after Matilda) -- Amely, 5 Months old, April 1855 -- William, 4 Months old, one year later -- Ernest, Gustav, Emma, Albert & Sarah (none married) were also buried there. Harriet, was buried in Oakhill Cemetery next to her husband John. They were married 9 Jan 1880 in Milwaukee. John was born 16 Jan 1854 in Brookfield, son of Johann & Anna Elizabeth (Wallauer) Hoffman, both natives of Canton, Thurgau, Switzerland. Ernst Beneke was of a wealthy family in Germany. He was educated at Gottingen University in Germany, studying philosophy and architechture. He spoke fluent English and French. He was an accomplished pianist and played in the King's Orchestra. His father was a Baron of the Brunswick & Hanover Line. Before Ernst was ready to inherit the castle and estate, he fell in love with Augusta Meininger, a waitress at the University. She was of Prussian decent, daughter of Valentine & Christina Meininger. They were married a full year before Baron Benecke found out. The Baron was very unhappy with the marriage and gave Ernst $10,000 and was told to move from the castle and estate. The couple moved to America, traveling by boat from Buffalo to Milwaukee. They purchased land in the town of Brookfield on July 15, 1847 on which they had built a cabin. Augusta's brother and sister later settled in cabins nearby. Ernst died Aug. 8, 1857 and was buried in the family burial plot shortly before the birth of his daughter Sarah. Sarah never married. She became a teacher teaching at Goerke's Corners, Calhoun, & Cottage Schools. She died in 1929 a few weeks from her sister Emma. Augusta lived to be almost 79. Gustav was killed in a horseback riding accident. Ernest, the oldest child, preceded Augusta in death. Updated 30 December 2001."
