I found this rather intriguing posted on the Burlington County, NJ list. It is an 1860 census record and included in this household is a 6 year old boy named William Geiger who is listed as an apprentice farmer--born in PA. Any idea who William Geiger is or what family he belongs to? BURLINGTON CO., NJ 31 July 1860, PO Mt.

Try a search with Google.com. Ask for GEIGER, DREHER, different spellings of the cemetery, the town, etc. When you get a list of possibilities, open one up and click on Edit > Find (on this list) [if you use Outlook Express] to scan the site. You'll soon get the hang of it. I typed in "Howard James Geiger" and got "about" 10,200 hits!! Lots of interesting GEIGERS there! "Orwigsburg, Pa.," brought 1,750!

Posted on: Geiger/Kiger/Kyger Query Forum Reply Here: http://cgi.rootsweb.com/~genbbs/genbbs.cgi/FamilyAssoc/Geiger/244 Surname: Geiger, Lee ------------------------- I see in the above message Abraham Harroll Geiger's dob is 1801. What documents do you have on his dob? He is my gggrandfather and I am working on his line.I have a copy of a census record from Hamilton Co, Fla for 1850 of a Abraham Geiger age 32 this would make his dob 1818. And on this same census a few pages down is listed his wife to be Avey Jane Lee. On the 1860 census for Chatham Co, Ga he is listed as Andrew H Geiger, wife Avey J, children John C,GeorgiaA, and Abraham P. These are his and Avey's children so I know this is Abraham Harroll and his age is 45 which would make his dob 1815. So there is no way his dob could be 1801. Would love to know how 1801 was documented. Any help would be appreciated. Thanks so much. Dot

Gerald: If he gave food, clothing, shelter, a saddle, horse, what ever to the Rev. War Soldiers during the war to help aid the men and the cause then he would qualify also. He did not have to fight!! Is this the case?? If so do you have documents to prove this?? Next can you using at least one form of proof for each generation bring him down to you?? If so you have what you need to apply.

Problem is, that I can't prove Jessie, to the satisfaction of the DAR...the only link that I have found is the Zachariah Bible, and it's publishing date was after Abraham died, so I am told that it is not acceptable to the DAR...What I need is a Will or Deed or some other Official document that shows Jessie as the son of Abraham and Mercy...Still looking and hoping... >From: "Gail Moore" <[email protected]> >Reply-To: [email protected] >To: [email protected] >Subject: Re: [GEIGER] Samuel Gieger >Date: Mon, 16 Oct 2000 19:35:57 -0700 > >Gerald: >If he gave food, clothing, shelter, a saddle, horse, what ever to the Rev. >War Soldiers during the war to help aid the men and the cause then he would >qualify also.

Dear Chaille: Let me tell you what I think is the mortar that makes us cohesive - our knowledge that we all go back to one individual who came from Switzerland, Abraham Gyger... If you could segregate your own line from the many others that also came from Germany, I believe you will create an environment that will make your cousins cling to you...and you to them...all seeking the same information...
