    1. [HWE] Kraft Billet, b. est c 1730-35, 1751 immigrant to PA

    3. Hello: A recent email said in part, "However I don't think I would be in trouble if I tell you there are lots of BILLETs" Please allow me to join this discussion. Sorry, but due to my recent ISP account switching I seem to have missed earlier messages in the thread. Are you responding to Klaus Billet? Since you apparently may not legally quote or copy extensive material from the CD, I would hope that small amounts of material may be quoted, provided a source citation is given. If that is correct and agreeable, can you advise whether anything appears concerning a Kraft Billet, b. est c 1730-35, or either a Gottlieb Billet or a Balthasar Billet, b. c 1700-1715 ? My purpose in asking is that Klaus and I have been trying for several years to connect the 1751 immigrant, Kraft Billet, who settled in Hellam Twp., York County, Pa. to his ancestors and to the data base of German Billet people that Klaus has compiled. It is purely my hypothesis that his father may have been either Gottlieb or Balthasar Baltzer). Of the two names I favor Balthasar as his father, since Kraft named his first son, Balthasar, b. 1759, who died young, and then Kraft Billet named another son, Baltzer. Lastly, what is the name of the CD and where might it be purchased? Many thanks for any help. Don Billet
