I have this verified by information in an old German Ahnentafel composed for my 3rd great-grandmother, Nancy Bender. Here are the details as I have them: Elizabeth Kammerer, b. abt 1770 to parents Peter Kammerer b. abt 1740 and wife Katherine (nee unknown). Peter is believed to have travelled to America in 1751 with brothers Christian and Dietrich aboard DUKE OF WURTTEMBURG. Elizabeth Kammerer m. in Lancaster to John Bender b. abt 1765 Lancaster Co. John Bender moved his family from Lancaster Co. to (now) Juniata Co. about 1800. A daughter of Elizabeth & John Bender, Nancy Bender b. 2/18/1795 in Manheim Twp., Lancaster Co., m. John Sulouff b. 1/4/1792 in Newberry Twp., York Co. They were married in (now) Juniata Co. and lived in Turbett Twp. They are my 3rd great grandparents. It appears from the portions of your message I copied above that perhaps my Elizabeth Kammerer is the same person as your "Elizabeth Kaemmerer b: August 04, 1774," daughter of Peter Kaemmerer. My estimate of Elizabeth Kammerer's birth year as 1770 was made entirely from the date of her daughter Nancy's birth in 1795. My question is, do you think it possible that your Peter Kaemmerer married twice, once to Juliana and once to Katherine; or alternatively that the names Katherine and Juliana are the first and second names of Peter Kaemmerer's only wife? Can you turn up any other evidence to confirm or deny either possibility? Also, please advise the nature of your evidence for the six children you name for Peter & Juliana Kaemmerer, of which Elizabeth is last? If it is from church records would you kindly tell me what church and where found? I have another unrelated question. I see you have "Hardy" in your name. I have a Thomas Hardy married to Mary Jane Sulouff b. 1836 in Juniata Co. PA. I estimate Thomas would have been born between 1830 and 1840. Thomas moved his family to Monticello (White Co.) Indiana, where Mary Jane died 12/28/1878. I am searching for any information on the parents or children of this Thomas Hardy. Do you have any suggestions that might help me? I have a lot of information on Mary Jane Sulouff's ancestry and will be thrilled to exchange information if I ever find someone who knows something about Thomas Hardy's family. Nelson R.
