Welcome to this Web site!
We are descents of Rev. Jonathan Yoder, Bishop of an Amish/Mennonite congregation in South Danvers, near Bloomington, Illinois.
 
I (Tom Daniels) am the great-great-great-grandson of the man honored by this web site. My great-grandfather was also named Jonathan Yoder. This Jonathan was born 100 years before I came along, but I heard about him all of my life. His youngest daughter Nellie was my grandmother. I grew up across the road where she (and her brother Perry) lived. She was a big influence in my life.
