Hi all - this seems to happen to me more often than mere chance would account for, I no sooner send a carefully prepared question to a list than I get an answer, or part of it, from somewhere else entirely. Anyway, I have found out that the two Drs KELLER I asked about in the earlier message (below) are both buried in the Union Deposit cemetery in Dauphin Co PA and I now have definite dates for them, as follows: David C. Keller b 17 Aug 1814 d 19 Oct 1891 wife Catherine b 23 Jul 1823 d 21 Mar 1858 Henry D. Keller b 9 Dec 1825 d 9 Jan 1887 This of course does not tell me who their parents were which is what I am really trying to find out, but it may make it easier for others to identify them and should make it easier for me to find obits, which I will try next. I would like to hear from anyone who has heard of them. Jan Janice A.
