I believe when I questioned you about Margaret being John (the elder)'s wife, I had never heard a wife's name mentioned, and stated he had a daughter, named Margaret, born 1730, who marr Abraham Lawsche (1732-1819), he being born CRAYFELT, PRUSSIA, DOMINION, GERMANY. Abraham Lawsche and Margaret Bechtelheimer had children: John of PA, Henry, Jacob, Abraham, Ann and Margaret. Which was stated to be the same names as her father's children. Much of the material we found was taken from the "A History of East Amwell 1700-1800, publ by Hunterdon Co.Historical Soc, Flemington, NJ" and from "German Sectarians of PA, " by J. F. Sachse. (the later material being sent me back in the 80's, by a Leatrice J. Harpster of Silver Springs, MD 20906, who was a descendant of Nathaniel & Diadema of Clermont Co, OH, as were 2 other researchers, Ruth Erhardt, Ruth Burdge?. I still plan on trying to get the book you read, interlibrary loan, as soon as feasable. May wait for the rainy season now! Hope all is well with you and your husband,. Have a good day.

Kenny Another thought, can you find out the newspapers in the Jackson, Clinton, or ? twsps, Putnam Co? You might want to go to your library at your home, and they might be able to check with Putnam, IN to see if they saved the newspapers or/what newspapers there were in Putnam, and might be able to read a film on them? Ask your library. Do you have a genealogy soc there? Check with them also. Newspapers are just another thought. You are bound and determined to find a skeleton in the closet, eh? We all do find them, I guess. Sallye

Since you sure are not close to SLC..LDS, you usually can rent the census reports from any library. They will charge you a short fee for same and you will have view the tape at the library. When you order the tape, ask for a soundex tape, and they will help you fill out the order. If you know for sure he was in Putnam, IN, then get the Putnam, IN census for ..... whatever year you want. Better yet, if you have a Latter Day "Morman Church" in your area, ask if they have a genealogy department there. Most of the branches of this church in Los Angeles, do have a section where you can order films from Salt Lake City. If you have any problems, let me know, and I will inquire out here where you could go...Let me know your home town tho.

Barb, Thanks for the additional info on Solomon and Polly Picklesimer's marriage. You were looking for the parents of several people, I don't know if there is any connection with the John who married Nancy Huts in 1835, but I got the following 1850 Franklin Co. VA census online on Rootsweb. I guess I neglected to write down the date it was recorded, but it was on pg. 1246, household # 956, family # 952. Becklehimer, John age 40 M farmer Nancy 40 F Abraham 15 M Frances 13 F James 11 M Susan 9 F Sarah 5 F If John and Nancy married in 1835, it's possible that this is them and their children. Of course, it's also possible that there's no connection! Linda

Barbara, David Picklesimer was reported to have been a brother but we have not found any definite proof. He is included in the family based upon the family legend. David moved into eastern Kentucky a few years after Abraham and married Sarah Prater, April 15, 1817, Floyd County, Kentucky. John
My previous message to the list about theRootsweb problems of last weekend may have given some the impression that I am in some way involved with Rootsweb. I copied that information from the "The Rootsweb Review", published weekly by Julia Case of Rootsweb. My e-mail software generates an automatic signature and attaches it to any message I send out, therefore, it appeared as though that message, written by Ellen Seebacher and Tim Pierce and edited by Ms. Case, was originated by the undersigned. Such is not the case, and I apologize to anyone from Rootsweb or anyone on this list who may have inferred usurped authorship.

NEWS AND NOTES FROM ROOTSWEB THAT WAS THE WEEK THAT WAS (by Ellen Seebacher and Tim Pierce). On Saturday, we lost lists.rootsweb.com -- one of RootsWeb's two main mailing list servers -- when it was penetrated by a cracker. We were cracked through the inattentiveness of a user with privileged access to the machine, and will be more careful about granting direct access to RootsWeb servers in future. There is no sensitive or private data on this machine, only mailing list archives, so no one's privacy was compromised. However, the individual who entered the system wiped out two directories essential to running the machine ("/etc" and "/var/log"), which meant that to make the machine usable again we'd need to reinstall part of it from scratch. Brian Leverich worked through the weekend to rebuild the server and reinstall the operating system, but the process did not go smoothly; mysterious hardware troubles kept cropping up. While wrestling with these problems he decided to use the "down time" to good advantage by replacing the old machine, a Pentium Pro 200 with slow 60-nanosecond EDO memory, with a Pentium II 400 with fast 6-nanosecond SDRAM memory, estimated to improve performance by a factor of 2-6. Dr. Leverich assembled the new server over Saturday night and Sunday. On Monday, Tim Pierce and Randy Winch went over the operating system painstakingly, file by file, to ensure that the intruder left behind no back doors or Trojan horses. On Monday night, Tim and Karen Isaacson rebuilt the missing /etc directory, from memory and a little detective work. By late Monday night, the new server had begun processing the backlogged mail that had accumulated over the weekend. Fortunately, the extra work on the new server paid off: the megabytes of backed-up mail that would have taken the old machine days to process were finished off by the new system in about 12 hours. So although our down time was about a day and a half longer than we expected, the result is a RootsWeb that's faster, more efficient and better equipped to serve the needs of Internet genealogists. Thanks to all for your patience while we recovered from this disaster. We are especially grateful to RootsWeb's Members, Sponsors, Donors, and Patrons, who have collectively made it possible for us not only to repair the crippled operating system, but also to increase the server's capacity so everyone benefits.

Perhaps it should say "B'hymer/P'hymer", implying that all variations of the name may be found? Or simply list the 70-some spelling variations on the home page, so most search engines will find them all... Or... I don't know.
