In the vicinity of Alisia, Lineboro, Melrose, Manchester, Millers, and Westminster: Bixler Bucher Deitz or Dietz Helwig Stegner Strevig Sweitzer or Switzer Most of my research is in York County, PA. I've tracked references to these names in MD from 1760 - 1900 but only have proofs for a few of them.. ____________________________________________________________________________________ Don't pick lemons.
