I am researching my wife's side of the family. The furthest back is Henry Miller who married Rachel Flory. On the year that Henry died, 1812, all his children bought a tract of land owned by Peter Livingood. This tract is bounded by some property owned by Michael Miller and very close to other tracts of land owned by Jacob Miller and John Miller. I am wondering if Michael, Jacob and John are related to my Henry. Are they brother or even a father? Henry and Rachel moved to Somerset Co. from Franklin Co. (Washington Twp.). This is where Rachel was born. I'm wondering if Henry was born here as well or in nearby York Co. I'm looking for wills and real estate info to give me some leads. Anyone have anything that would help me. Larry Hakel Luray Virginia
Larry, Have you checked with the Historical Society in Somerset County, PA.? They are very helpful and just chocked full of info. Ask for Donna. She has helped me several times.
