I noted your posting above. In it, regarding the 1823 Holtzklau attorney appointment, you cite SARAH HITT, late deceased, wife of PETER HITT, deceased. I believe this is my SARAH JAMES, died in 1822. I ma interested in finding the descendants of this SARAH JAMES & PETER HITT. Can you provide them for me? Also, might I find additional information in the source books you cite, and are those books readily available for purchase. Thank you for your help in this matter.
