Marilyn, You might have a pattern typical of Moravian migration between PA and NC. Please visit Moravian Church Genealogy Links at http://www.enter.net/~smschlack . MEYER and BLUM are on my Immigrant (1734) and Early Moravian SURNAMES page. Adolf MEYER was an MD sent to care for Moravian congregations in Pennsylvania. He arrived in Philadelphia on June 7, 1742. Franz BLUM joined the Moravian congregation in Bethlehem, PA in December of 1742. This family was from Lehigh or Northampton County, PA. BLUM also appears on the Early Moravian Settlers (1753) of Forsythe Co., NC link. Thanks for this link go to Elizabeth Harris (sponsor of NCSTOKES-L and NCGenWeb Coordinator) and her cousin Faye Moran. Their BLUM page mentions the first generation to move from Bethlehem, PA to North Carolina. The Moravians traveled more frequently than you might imagine between congregations and mission stations all over the Eastern Seaboard! Sue
