    3. A brick was was at least cracked last week when the NYS Health Department provided the death record for my great grandmother, Anna (Fox) Everard. We learned that her mother, also named Anna, was named Anna (Rouchel) Egloff. Dr. Laurentine Rouchel signed the death certificate. We may be able to assume that Dr. Rouchel and Anna were related with both living in Croghan township. We also know that Dr. Rouchel is buried in the Basselin cemetery in the middle of Croghan. We know from various census reports that there was an Egloff living with my great grandparents, including occasionally one or two female Egloffs. That mystery wall may now be solved but another mystery appears over which some of the members of this list might offer suggestions. Let me explain. Anna (Rouchel) Egloff came from the Grostenquin canton in Lorraine. Her daughter was born in the village of Laning in the same canton. Egloffs also came from there and two Strifes were witnesses at her daughter's birth. Anna (Rouchel) was apparently married to a George Fouchs (Fox) who died before her daughter was born in 1836. I have some serious searching to do to find out whether Anna (Rouchel) Egloff remarried in France or in the USA. Accompanying that there is a need to find more about her Egloff husband. If any list members can offer information about my GG grandmother's marriage to an Egloff in Lewis County or France, it would be most appreciated. Do any of you have Egloff's in your genealogies? I do know two Egloffs who are descendants Nicholas I and II but as of this point they have no information connecting my family with theirs. Ken Everard (in NJ) everardl@voicenet.com
