Hi, Sorry about previous empty post. In the 1900 census, Election District #7, Precinct 1, Carroll County, there is this entry: Yingling Vincent born Jun 1873, married 6 years Yingling Sarah born July 1871, married 6 years, three children, all still living Zengraft John J. "S-son" April 1888 Yingling Frank son Aug 1895 Yingling Mary Aug 1898 Zengraft John V. father-in-law Jun 1819 m. 42 years, born in Germany, naturalized in 1847 Zengraft Adeline Mother-in-law Jan 1830, bore one child (still living), Adeline and parents were born in Maryland Yingling Mathew brother Mar 1884 This entry seems to imply that John J. Zengraft was born out of wedlock to Sarah, who is the only child of John V. and Adeline Zengraft. (If Sarah had had a previous marriage to a Zencraft, the elder Zencrafts would not be Vincent's mother- and father-in-law.) This stepson John J. Zengraft married Alverta Dull (of the line I am following) about 1908 and they had at least: James, Joseph and Louise. Alverta and her three children are living with her father Henry Dull in the 1920 census, by which point Alverta was a widow. My goal here is to find descendants of John J. Zengraft and Alverta Dull. Any ideas would be appreciated. Thanks, Jane Peppler
