Thank you, I am descended from Lewis Karns Sr. B MD 1760 thru his son Henry b 1784 MD who went to OH in 1811. Also is there any mention of a George c1766 or John Gordon b 1739? Also looking for Forbes or Duke.

THOSE INCREDIBLE METHODISTS: A history of the Baltimore Conference of the United Methodist Church, Edited by Gordon Baker, 1972. 2.) CENTENNIAL HISTORY OF THE EVANGELICAL LUTHERAN SYNOD OF MARYLAND 1820-1920: by Rev. Abdel Wentz, Ph. D., Published 1920. Both books contain many names of church members, especially Church clerical and prominent laypersons. The 2nd book contains many pictures of churches and persons which I can scan and send if relevant. I would be glad to do look-ups if anyone thinks they may have ancestors associated with these churches.
