Biography Hank (Henry William Calonkey b. 5 FEB 41)
: Lucy, Clyde, Alfred, Olive, &
Josephene were the children of Alice Wade and Henry P. Calonkey. This
segment of the family line existed in and around Boone County Iowa from
sometime after the Civil War to the present. H.P.'s father was Constantine
Noble (C.N.) Calonkey an infant immigrant from France around 1820, with his
widowed mother and a family named Mougin. Asa best I know, they were
Hugenots (non-catholics) and survivors of the inquisition and political
violence in France. Clyde and Cynthia Dollie Armstrong Calonkey were my
paternal grand parents. I knew Josephene from many of her visits to Iowa
and met Lucy briefly one time in Bishop, CA in 1963. I'll work on this more
in coming days.¹⁰
