"Hornaday" has a hit of history
showing how some of these names were
given. A ship crossing the ocean was
detained and the supply of drinking
water -became low. The little fellow
who allowed the drinks, gave each a
horn a day. So while he gave the peo
ple drinks, they ave him a name that
stuck. Hornna-day, Stroll ngen? or Trol
ingers were ttfose who strolled around
from place tg place. The Albrights
were noblemen from Albrightsberg
the name of their castle in Germany.
The word Houltz is very probably low
