In a message dated 98-07-02 17:35:58 EDT, you write: > Looking for a John Geiger born bef 1768 supposedly son of Simon Peter > Geiger. > Have John in New Jersey, Frederick Co Md and Westmoreland Pa. Barbara, can you clarify this for us? Do you mean that you have YOUR John Geiger located in NJ and then MD and then Westmoreland or that you have found A John Geiger who COULD be yours in those places? There were John Geigers in each of those three places but not the SAME John Geiger as far as I know. There was a Simon Geiger in New Jersey but he didn't have a son named John--at least not one who was living and named in his father's will written in 1786 and probated in 1787. There may actually have been more than one John Geiger in Old Frederick County, MD. I know of at least one John Geiger (born 1798) in Westmoreland but he was born too late to be yours. Any further details you could provide might help us to identify your John Geiger. Joan
