Pacific Standard Time, [email protected] writes: Phyllis, Thank you, thank you, for taking the time to find the baptism in the correct volume of the Pennsylvania German Society Proceedings and for describing how the entries are listed in the volume. You have saved me untold research hours trying to find out why a baptism would take place in New Jersey when the parents were members of the church in New Providence (Trappe) and lived in Montgomery Co., PA. I am going to send this to the president of the Cressman Family Assn. so she can correct their records for this baptism.
