SNGF -- Who's Number 100 in Your Ahnentafel?

Calling All Genea-Musings Fans:

It's Saturday Night again -

Time for some more Genealogy Fun!!

Randy Seaver of Genea-Musings’ assignment tonight is to:

1)  Who is Number 100 in your Ahnentafel list? Tell us about him.  {If you don't have a #100, use another number].

2)  How do you descend from #100?

Here's mine:
My tree is unusual, as I have my daughter in the number one spot. 

So, #100 is Christoph Siewert, my paternal 3rd-great-grandfather (her maternal 4th-great-grandfather). I don’t know much about him. He was born about 1766 in Posen, Prussia. He married Anna Mariana Ewald on 14 January 1811. He died on 3 February 1841. I know this information because I cousin hired a researcher in Poland. However, he doesn’t remember the researcher’s name, nor have any information about where this information came from. So, I can’t write specific citations to the church, only to the research notes given to me by my cousin.

The lineage: 

#100 – Christoph Siewert (1766-1841)

#50 – Vincent Siewert (Sievert) b. 24 January 1823 in Posen, married 10 February 1850 to Susanna Raduntz in Posen, and died 23 January 1890 in Joliet, Will County, Illinois.

#25 – Julia Ann Sievert, born 31 October 1854 in Joliet, Illinois, married Johan Anton (John A.) Hork on 6 June 1872 in Joliet, Illinois. She died on 4 August 1928 in Hamilton, Ravalli County, Montana.

#12 – William Cyril Hork, born 10 July 1899 in Hamilton, Montana. He married Anna Marie Sullivan on 30 November 1922 in Butte, Silver Bow County, Montana. He died on 3 December 1967 in Los Angeles, California.

#6 – William Joseph Hork, born 23 April 1930 in Ontario, San Bernardino County, California. He married Lela Nell Johnston on 19 April 1953 in Concord, Contra Costa County, California. He died on 13 October 2007 in Walnut Creek, California.

#3 – me

#1 – daughter

Other Options 
With me in the no. 1 spot, my #100 is my maternal 4th-great-grandfather, John Coor (1785-1838), who lived in North Carolina and Mississippi.

With my husband in the no. 1 spot, his #100 is his maternal 4th-great-grandfather, Michael Larsson (1761-1826), who lived in Åsenhöga, Jonköping, Sweden.
