I'm reviewing stuff in my in-basket and am grateful for you giving me a DOD for Jefferson Kimmel and his wife Julianne. My records show she is d/o Tobias Musser and Susanna Croner. Susanna, I believe, is a sister of Barbara Croner my direct line ancestor who married David Kimmel 1763. I'm also trying to learn as much as I can about the Croner/Groner lines. (It's my husband who has the Musser ancestry, also a Brethren family.) Do you have a DOD for Jefferson Kimmel's father, Benjamin? I only have a DOB. I'd still like to know the maiden name of Magdalena who married Elder John Groner, father of Barbara Croner Kimmel and Susanna Croner Musser. Why do I have Jefferson Kimmel as a double-L Kimmell? Since your family is still in Stony Creek Twp, Somerset County, does that mean these folks never left Stony Creek? I don't have places for most of them, alas. Wish I'd known there were genealogy types amongst the Kimmel researchers when I was visiting there a year or two ago and was zipping around strange roads looking for Kimmel landmarks and cemeteries that often turned out to be behind somebody's cornfield. (Fortunately for me some Kimmels on Kimmel Road were nice to me and showed me a few landmarks, but they weren't into genealogy at all, and I knew I was really imposing on strangers.) Maybe someday we can have a Kimmel genealogy conference at Somerset? I'd come for that. Thanks. Jan T Jan T
