Sorry to say that I don't have this name in my files, I did check the Trenton Prisoner list published by the Johannes Schwalm Historical Association in the 1985 Journal, and he is not listed there. I am putting this on the Hessian list, perhaps someone else finds him, cheers, John Merz ----- Original Message ----- From: Purdee2@aol.com To: hessian@sympatico.ca Sent: Tuesday, September 21, 2004 9:00 PM Subject: Hessian POWs Dear Mr. Merz: After reading through several lists I can see that you are an authority on Hessians who remained in America and I wonder if you could spare a few moments of time to share your knowledge. My ancestor, William Grieff (Graeff) is mentioned in the Schuylkill County (PA) Blue Book as having been a Hessian taken prisoner at the Battle of Trenton and having been interned in Reading, PA. Do you know how I might verify that information or expand it? Many thanks in advance, Chris Leon
