Distant “Nebiker” cousins in Switzerland
A newspaper article from Switzerland (translation below):
Old National Council President Hans Rudolf Nebiker died (7 Apr 2008).
The earlier National Council President, Hans Rudolf Nebiker died on Monday at 78 years of age. He served for 23 years from the Basel district until he retired in 1998. In 1991-92 he served as the National President (of the Council). He was born on 10 Oct. 1929 in Pratteln in Liestal. He grew up in Pratteln and Sissach. Nebiker was married and had six daughters.
{Note that Sissach is a decent sized town which is only about five miles northwest of Hafelfingen, the tiny village where our "Nebiker" ancestors came from. It is interesting to note that we still have distant cousins living in the same general area where Johann Nebiker came from when he left his homeland and migrated to Delaware in about 1754.}
