Thanks to Howard, Eric, and Barb for detailed explanations on things we all need to know if we are doing research on the original 13 lines. I hope all of you readers will copy these messages and put into a ring binder so you can find them again, along with other well-researched information that shows up on the internet and in other places. I have also referenced in my finder many of the articles in "Krefeld Immigrants," not only for my ancestral families, but to learn how the early Germantown people lived, research tools, and other things. Actually, as most of the families are related in some way, by going back a generation or two, I'm descended from several of the thirteen (Lukens, Kunders, Tyson/Doors, Streypers) and related to most of the other families.
