1/11/06 These biographical sketches of the Hawver brothers come from History of McHenry County, Illinois: together with sketches of its cities, villages and towns, educational, religious, civil, military, and political history, portraits of prominent persons, and biographies of representative citizens. Chicago: Inter-State Publishing Co. 1885.
JOHN HAWVER, section 2, Chemung Township, was born in Canajoharie, Montgomery Co., N. Y., April 7, 1820, a son of John I. and Catherine (DOBBS) Hawver, natives of New York. When twenty years of age he came with his brother Peter to Illinois and settled in Chemung Township, McHenry County. During harvest he worked for $12 a month, and money being scarce took his pay in cattle and hay. He finally got himself a farm, was married and commenced life. In 1853 he went to Green County, Wis., and remained until the fall of 1869, when he returned to Big Foot Prairie and bought the old Nathaniel Smith farm where he has since resided. He owns 170 acres of choice land, fifty acres lying in Alden Township. He is one of the most enterprising farmers of the township, and an influential and highly esteemed gentleman. Mr. Hawver was married July 9, 1848, to Jane E. Hicks, a native of Schoharie County, N.Y., daughter of John and Henrietta (BALDWIN) HICKS. They have a family of five children - Leonora, born April 15, 1850, is the wife of Jame Barnes, of Chemung Township; J. S., born May 18, 1852, married to Fidelia Hildreth; Monroe D., born April 14, 1854, married Esther Bell; Ulysses S., born May 26, 1864, and Chester C., born May 28, 1874, are at home. Mr. Hawver has experienced all the phases of pioneer life and has lived to see the county brought to its advanced state of cultivation. In 1884 he made a trip to California, and while there witnessed the capture of a whale from the deck of the vessel which captured it. (pp. 478-479)
PETER D. HAWVER has been a resident of Chemung Township, McHenry County, since May, 1840. He was born in Canajoharie, Montgomery Co., N. Y., March 28, 1814, a son of John J. and Catherine (DOBBS) Hawver. His father was a poor man, and Peter, being the oldest son, was obliged to assist in the support of the family. When sixteen years of age he was bound to a carpenter for five years, but because of the man's cruelty he left him after a year and a half and worked for different farmers, remaining with one man six years. In 1840 he came West, and arrived in Chicago, May 24. From there came direct to McHenry County and bought eighty acres of the farm where he now lives. He added to his original purchase from time to time, till he owned 540 acres of the finest land in the State. He has reserved the old homestead of 132 acres, and has divided the rest among his children. In his early life he was economical and saved his earnings, and the result has been prosperity. He has been an enterprising citizen and has been influential in both business and social circles. He was married Feb. 12, 1835, to Christina HARDENDORF, a native of Canajoharie, N.Y., born Feb. 13, 1815, a daughter of Jacob and Hannah (CLOW) Hardendorf, natives of New York, of Holland descent. To them have been born ten children, eight of whom are living - Charles T., born Sept. 4, 1836, married Henrietta Staley, March 4, 1857; Dewey F., born Feb. 6, 1839, is in San Francisco, Cal.; Laura, born July 17, 1841, probably the first while girl born in Chemung Township, is the wife of Ezra Avery, of Eau Claire County, Wis., married Jan. 31, 1859; Mary E., born June 25, 1846, was married Nov. 16, 1871, to Henry Huntley, of Sharon, Wis.; Lydia, born Aug. 2, 1850, was married Sept. 13, 1868, to James H. Staley; Oren P., born June 6, 1853, was married Dec. 23, 1875, to Ella Bell, and resides in Walworth County, Wis.; Sumner, born Sept. 22, 1856, was married Jan. 28, 1878, to Edith Mills; Louisa C., born Oct. 1, 1860, was married Dec. 4, 1879, to Darwin Gillis, Walworth County, Wis. Five of the children are living within two miles and a half of the old homestead. Mr. and Mrs. Hawver are members of the Methodist Episcopal church. Their ancestors were among the early settlers of this country and were heroes of the war of the Revolution. (p. 479)

Much of the information I have regarding the Hawvers comes from examining the baptismal records of churches in the Columbia County area via a series of transcriptions by noted historian Arthur C. Kelley, available in the genealogy/family/local history sections of many public libraries (at least in this area); they are also available for sale on his website at www.kinship.com.
The Hawver name does indeed have many variations. I try to record the names exactly as I find them in the records. It sometimes helps me to remember all the many spellings I may encounter! The origin of the Hawver name is Palatine German. The family came across with many other German emigrants in 1709-1710 to the Hudson Valley. There are many excellent books (and websites) with information on this emigration. If you are truly interested in the family, you should consider reading one or more of them. I can give you recommendations.
But you probably want to know about Johns immediate family, so here goes:
[You might want to print this out it may make more sense]
JOHANNES HAVER (his father) was probably born about 1767; his christening is recorded March 01, 1767 at Germantown Reformed Church, Germantown, Columbia County, NY. Parents: JOHANNES HABER and BERBEL LAURY. Sponsors: Urgel Heiser and Catharina Haber (wife) [Johannes sister]. This Johannes married CHRISTINA WOLF on September 17, 1786 at Dutch Reformed Church, Claverack, Columbia County, NY: Johannes Haver and Christnje Wolf. The Wolf name may be Dutch.
Their children:
1. CATHARINA HAVER, born about 1786-7; christening recorded January 14, 1787 at Kinderhook Reformed Church, Kinderhook, Columbia County, NY. Parents: Johannes Haber and Christina Wolf. Sponsors: Christiaan Haver and Eva Hoffman (wife) [Christian was Johannes brother].

3. BETEY HAVER, born about 1789-90; christening recorded January 17, 1790 at Kinderhook Reformed Church. Parents: John Haver and Christina Wolff. Sponsors: Mathias Wolf and Elisabeth More.
4. JOHANNIS HAVER, born September 11, 1791; christening recorded October 23, 1791 at Kinderhook Reformed Church. Parents: John Haver and Christina Wolff. Sponsors: Andrias More and Maria Haver. [This is your John]
5. PETRUS HAVER, born September 06, 1793; christening recorded October 13, 1793 at Kinderhook Reformed Church. Parents: John Haver and Christina Wolf. Sponsors: Petrus Haver and Catrina Decker. [Peter was Johns brother]

7. CHRISTINA HAVER, born September 20, 1796; christening recorded October 30, 1796 at Kinderhook Reformed Church. Parents: John Haver and Christina Wolf. Sponsors: John Van Dyck and Anna Haver. [Anna would have been Johannes sister]
8. JAOB HAVER, born May 13, 1798; christening recorded June 10, 1798 at Kinderhook Reformed Church. Parents: John Haver and Christina Wolf. Sponsors: Peter Cole and Tabitha Roreplay.

I dont have any other information on any other these Hawvers [i.e. marriages, children, et al.] In fact, I had almost drawn the conclusion that they might have left the area.
