Robert Caldwell Bollinger & Family Connections

Robert Caldwell Bollinger (1883-1912)
8th of 11 children born to
Joseph M Bollinger (1844-1921) and Sarah Elizabeth Bollinger (1849-1923)

Paternal grandparents:
Joshua Bollinger (1810-1889) and Lena Statler (1812-1849)
Maternal grandparents:
John A Bollinger (1828-1913) and Mary Magdalena Hahn (1829-1911)

Robert's father, Joseph, is the older half-brother of Benjamin Franklin Bollinger
Robert's mother, Sarah, is the older sister of Frances Quintilla Bollinger
(A case of brothers married to sisters)

Another interesting family connection:
Joshua Bollinger's mother, Mary Magdalena Hahn (1791-1861)
and Mary Magdalena Hahn's father, Abraham Hahn (1786-1860)
were brother and sister, the children of Joshua Hahn and Elizabeth Henkel;

which makes both Joseph & Sarah and Benjamin & Frances
second cousins who married.

This Hahn Family connection is one generation closer than their Bollinger Family connection, in which they are third cousins through their Bollinger great-grandfathers, brothers John and Matthias. Is that totally confusing?
