I received the following message from my friend, Ron Fernsler and thought I would pass it on to anyone interested in this Darke County family. You can find the blurb along with an order blank at: http://www.dcoweb.org/bookstore/ Thanks! --Jane Torres -----Original Message----- From: Ron Fernsler [mailto:ron@fernsler.com] Sent: Friday, March 14, 2003 5:30 PM To: Torres, Jane E Cc: pfish197@concentric.net Subject: Fernsler book ============================================================================= The Posterity of John Philip and Maria Barbara Fernsler (Farnsler, Fensler, Fansler) Compiled by Clerice Z. Fisher and Ronald E. Fernsler This text covers the ancestry and descendants of Philip Fernsler, who was born in Zttlingen, Germany in 1704, and arrived in Philadelphia in 1727. He married Maria Barbara Georg in 1731. Some of their descendants spell the name Farnsler, Fensler or Fansler. The book, which is fully indexed, contains 1104 pages, and 96 photographs, with biographical sketches on each family member we were able to trace. Some of the female lines included in the book include the surnames: Barlett, Case, Comins, Davidson, Frick, Geib, Hoover, Imboden, Keesbury, Keifer, Krall, Kreps, Lisle, Ludwig, Marshall, Martin, Miller, Moore, Moyer, Nafzger, Poorman, Reist, Ristenbatt, Rohland, Shanaman, Smith, Snyder, Spohn, Stager, Stephens, Tharp, Walters, Williams, Zehrbach, and many more. The plans are to have the book printed on acid free paper, and hard bound, by a commercial printing company. This will require a minimum order of 200 books, and must be paid for in advance. We could turn it over to a printer who specializes in genealogical books and let them advertise it, but they would add a considerable profit to the cost, and would take orders until they were assured of a worth while sale before the book would actually be printed. If orders were insufficient they would cancel the printing. Our plan has always been to sell the book at printing costs, so we are asking for paid in advance orders (checks will not be cashed until we have received the books). We feel this will be the least expensive way to make the family history available to you in a quality, long life book. Paid orders received by April 10, 2003: Price per book: $45.00 Plus Shipping $3.00 Total: $48.00 each Delivery by the printer is scheduled for approximately May 20, 2003 After April 10, any remaining books will be $50.00 each plus shipping while the supply lasts. Make checks payable and send orders to: Clerice Fisher 2139 Sheridan Place Richland, WA 99352 Address questions to the above address, or to Clerice at pfish197@concentric.net or Ron at ron@fernsler.com.
