    3. Robert, I found nothing for a John in the two volumes I own. Most of the burials I mentioned are in the 1850/60 range. German surnames seem to suffer from interchaneable vowels and consonants and so we have lists that we live with. If you don't, you miss some of the good stuff @:>).

Ive traced the Wolfords back to the 1750s Id be happy to help anyone wishing information on this family. Im seeking obituaries on Wolfords from washington county, especially one John Henry Wolford born in 1794 and died in 1856. He was married to a nancy ann noll.Also if anyone knows the whereabouts of any Wolford family graves i would really appreciate it. Thank you. >> >> >>Thank you, yes, for some strange reason ive found Johanns original sons changed the spelling of their names from Wohlfardt to Wolford and Wolferd, one son that went to kentucky even changed his to Wolfert. John Adam Wolfert is listed in the kentucky census in 1820.Johann died in 1796, in washington county. I wonder where his grave is? >> >> > > > > >--------------------------------- >Do you Yahoo!? >Yahoo! Mail Address AutoComplete - You start.
