(They can only get that from family stories already told.) The information in book is a of research and data pulled from census records, military records, ships' logs, immigrant and port records, as well as other reputable sources. The other reputable sources will have to be from 1. Gloria Keller Quinroz of Vallejo, CA and her 25 years of research on Blosser's. 2. Donna Hughes of Columbus, OH and her son Mark on the work of the 3 John Blosser's. 3. Gordon C. Baker of Rockville, MD Blosser Book (extensive work completed in Switzerland) 4. Elizabeth Blosser, "Abraham Blosser Family Book" 5. Samuel H. Blosser in 1902 wrote "Genealogical History of the Blosser Family, As Known in America," printed by A.S. Kieffer & Son, Dayton, VA. 6. And the countless individuals who have placed their stories and family names on Rootsweb.com, message boards on different sites, and the countless county history books listing Blosser's in their histories. I guess their not getting paid. No I haven't read their book. I have paid to read the documents. I have paid for the books and information or given information in trade for other information. I'm not part of Margaret Culp Blosser's. I descend from John Blosser and Nancy Anne Blosser, then their son George Blosser and Lydia Grove(s).
