To all subscribers of Kiser-L I've been subscribing to Kiser rootsweb in hopes of finding a connection for my line which goes thru Pittsburgh. Three brothers Josiah C, David O and William immigrated from Bedford County just prior to the Civil war. David and Josiah were in the War and I have the military records from the National Archives. Their parents in Bedford were William and Eliza Waggoner Kiser. Williams line goes back thru Shippensburg Pa and Rev War papers indicate that father and perhaps grandfather Jacob immigrated to Phila in the 1720's. and later went to Shippensburg. Jacob married a Catherine Stambaugh from Lancaster and she was a memeber of a local religious Sect. I know that when the tree brothers immigrated they had a brother to their father William (an Uncle) that went thru Ohio and on to Iowa. His name was James H Kiser. Terry Kiser from Iowa, and I have well documented this part of the family and I am convinced that others spread from the Philia area and may have gone to Va, Kent and even Ala. Any help in this regard would be greatly appreciated. Anyone on this list who would like what I have is welcome to all and everything. I live in South Louisiana and have been to Pittsburgh and Phila twice trying to sort this through. The Germantown Historical Soc in Phila has a lot of information but a detailed through investigation has not been completed. There is much there on Dirick Kiser/Keyser and I find some Kiser spellings as well. It is possible that Jacob who claimed birth in Germantown was related to Charles (Karl) who went south early after immigration. Any clues appreciated and acknowleged. I expect that connections may be established through family Bibles which are indeed scarse and court records, which are hard to decipher. Thanks Jim Kiser 2rhdr1@bellsouth.net I amd currently in New Jersey awaiting the arrivial of our daughters first child.
