Jordan, A grandfather of one Cecil County researchers on this list discovered many many years ago that his line came from Peter and Margaret Egner. Unfortunately where he discovered this information is unknown but it is an important lead to the Cecil County researchers. A Peter, son of Johan Mathias Egner of modern day Lehigh County, PA married a Margaretha, and their trail is lost after the birth of a child born 1780 (we only have 4 children for them, born between 1769 and 1780 so I'm sure we are missing some of the children). Their first known child was an Elisabetha born 1769, but in Montgomery Co PA. http://www.kerchner.com/des735.htm Are you sure your Elizabeth was born in MD? If there's a chance she was born in PA, this may be the one. ---Celia Hartmann :o)
