    1. [NCBURKE] New Book: The Keller Family - The Descendants of Anthony Keller, 1710 - 1783
    2. This is a Message Board Post that is gatewayed to this mailing list. Author: DarrellKeller Surnames: Classification: biography Message Board URL: http://boards.rootsweb.com/localities.northam.usa.states.northcarolina.counties.burke/4724/mb.ashx Message Board Post: I have finally completed work on The Keller Family - The Descendants of Anthony Keller, 1710 - 1783. This enormous work traces Anthony Keller from Lettweiler, Rhineland-Palatinate (Pfalz), Germany in 1710 through his journey across the ocean in 1740 onboard LOYAL JUDITH to his settlement in York, Pennsylvania. The genealogy portion traces his descendants through his eight children, most of whom migrated out of Pennsylvania down to North Carolina, Indiana, Ohio, Missouri and Tennessee. This book is split into two volumes, each about 400 pages, and is thermally bound with nice white paperback cardstock. There are also many pictures, so it is printed in full color. I publish on demand, so the books can be personalized in some small way if you are related to someone in it (by adding missed family names in your branch of the family tree, as well as adding pictures). In this book, you will find a little history of Germany in the 17th and 18th Centuries, a few pages on the Great Wagon Road, and a short history of a few Civil War regiments, such as the 11th NC Regiment, the 26th NC Regiment, and the 50th Indiana Infantry Regiment, and the Kellers who served in those units. Also, you will find the arguments that connect Andrew Keller (who married Rachel Seabolt), Daniel Keller (who married Hannah Payne), and Christian Keller (who married Mary (Molly/Polly) Heifner) to Johann Jacob Keller (son of Johan Peter Keller, son of Anthony Keller).
