If you have a GPS you can put in these coordinates.... 40°13'4.65"N 76°22'8.76"W The Rohrer farm is the larger of the two farms on that corner and it is on the northern side of the road as Airy Hill Road makes the turn. The graveyard is in the field behind the house on the East side. Make sure it is dry when you go or bring mud boots. And if you go, Bob Harter is interested in the Daniel Hollinger stone. I took a photo but the bottom half of the stone was covered by some healthy rye grass.

Ilene - The Ulrich Zug Cemetery is located in the northern part of Lancaster County on Airy Hill Road between Locust Grove Road and Penryn Road. It is owned by a family named Rohrer and they are very friendly. Ulrich was my 6th ggrandfather. Let me know if you need any additional information.

I have three photos of the stone that Bob discusses below in the Zug Cemetery. Send me an email if you would like a copy of the photos. Perhaps someone who reads 18th century German can decipher the stone.

I have her name as Barbara Groff. Am I incorrect or was it Elizabeth Barbara Groff (or Barbara Elizabeth Groff)? Daniel Holllinger and Elizabeth/Barbara Groff are my 4G Grandparents. I have another puzzle with Daniel that has intrigued me. He is buried in the Ulrich Zug family cemetery. Why? The only connection I have found to the Zug family was that Barbara's younger sister, Eva Groff, married John Kinsey, whose mother was Barbara Zug. That seems to be an awfully weak as a reason for the burial. I have visited the cemetery, and Daniel is the only non-Zug there.
