By the way, Dori, I heard a couple of years ago from a very thorough SAFRIED researcher named Kristine Elliott. Kristine agrees with us about the frustrating aspects of the different name spellings. She said, "The various spellings of Siefried, Seifried, Safreed, Safreet, etc. are scary and definitely a difficulty for the genealogist. Soundex doesn't begin to cover it." She went on to say "At the Mongomery County (PA) archives, I found a will for a George Siefried leaving provisions for his wife "Molly" and everything ultimately to his daughter Mary, who had been married to Jacob Root. (I'll have to look at it again, but I think it identified her as Jacob Root's wife or widow rather than as Henry Sabold's wife.) He left some money to the New Hanover Lutheran Church, and money for a gravestone, so I went there on the reasonable supposition that he might have been buried there. Sure enough, I did find his gravestone. A copy of one of my photographs of the gravestone can be found at : http://www.geocities.com/souriete/GeorgFSiefried.html with a rough translation of those parts I can read. (It is in Fraktur.) The gravestone lists his wife as Anna Maria Lober. (Anna Maria's stone is broken and partially buried so I was not able to get any information from it.)" and "George's gravestone lists his father as Michael Siefried and his mother as Katharina Br ... I have not been able to track them down. There was a will for a Michael Seifried in Chester County of approximately the right age, but it does not mention a son George. (If I remember correctly, the Will is no longer in the folder at the archive, but there are extracts around.)" I wonder if there is anyone on this List who would know where those "extracts" of Michael Seifried's Chester County will are? I'd sure love to track down more on this Safreed / Seyfret / Seifried family. Any suggestions on the maiden name of Georg's wife, Katharine Br...? Thanks for any help you can give us!

Hi Dori! Sign me up for the Frustrated Safreed Researchers list! Mine connect to the Root family of Chester and Montgomery Counties. Jacob3 Root (Jacob2, Sebastian1) was born 1780; he married Mary Safreed; he died 1822. He was a carpenter. Mary Safreed was born in 1783. She married Henry Sabold; 2nd husband. She died in 1867. She was buried at Mt. Zion Cemetery, North Coventry Twp., Chester Co., PA. Her name was also spelled Syfret. Known children of Jacob3 Root and Mary Safreed were as follows: i. Sarah4 Root married Henry Sabold Jr. ii. Mary S. Root married Christopher. iii. Jacob S. Root. iv. George Root was born circa 1805; he died 22 Oct 1882. 4 v. Eli S. Root, born 23 Feb 1817 at Chester Co., PA; married Sarah Pennypacker. Eli Root had an office in Pottstown. He lived in North Coventry Twp, Chester Co. He was the administrator of Elizabeth Safreed Yocum's property, and wrote this letter to a relative of hers: > Pottstown Dec 6th 1885 > > Mr Safreed, Dear Sir, > > Your favour come to hand hasten to reply am pleased to hear > from you.

Hello again folks, Well, I heard back from the Santa Clara (CA) library today about getting a copy of an article from the "Pennsylvania Traveler", aka "Pennsylvania Traveler-Post" and "Genealogist's Post", published by Mildred Williams of Danboro, PA. I needed an issue the lady there in Santa Clara says they didn't have. I may have her try again and see if the article is in the November 1978 or May 1979 issue that surrounded where "my" issue should have been. So, it is back to the drawing board on this one. During my surfing today looking for another repository I found the periodical listed in the FHL catalog. There are many volumes of this publication in Salt Lake City, and the table of contents of each issue is online. http://www.familysearch.org/Eng/Library/fhlcatalog/ supermainframeset.asp?display=titledetails&titleno=1044767&disp=The +Pennsylvania+traveler%2Dpost%20%20&columns=*,0,0 This is a very long URL, so paste it carefully. I am checking out each issue to see if there are Anderson items (there are several) and there are many, many references to Chester County and CC families. Thought some of you might want to take a peek. I am seriously thinking of going to Salt Lake City next month, so maybe I can check this out at that time. Otherwise, I don't know how to get a copy. Has anyone ever asked SLC for copies of a book or magazine article? Good luck, Laura
This is definantly my last on last names. In Warrington Township (where I live) are many Cooks.Bob Cook tells me the story of the origin of the name Cooke in my township.It seems that one of the Cooks thought (or hoped)) that he was a descendant of Captain Cooke,the famous English explorer,so he arbitrarily added an e on the end of his name.Now if you look in our local telephone directory there are about as many Cooks as Cookes and they are probably all related and don't realize it. visit"The George Smedley Homepage" http://smedley.lewis.home.att.net additional photos at http://smedley.george.home.att.net

My family name is HOHL -- the obvious phonetic spelling would be Hole, and records are just about even with both spellings, and not hard to sort out. However we have documented as many as 14 different spellings, including Howell, Holl and Hull - - - - go figure! Then there was Hohl's in-laws named Saufried - - - which is also Seyfried, Seyfrit, Seifert, Sifrit, ad infinitum. Anyone researching these names? Dori
And Miller gets even worse - if they came very early and came from Germany it was Muller with all the variations that name has.

Yes, 'e' and 'i' are often mistaken, if I don't dot my 'i' it definitely looks like an 'e'. But, the different spellings of Entrikin, Entriken, ect are used by different branches. My Hannah Amanda Entrikin was a granddaughter of the Caleb Entrikin/Entriken and Ann Way that you mention. I'd go with Cope on that one, he personally knew alot of those people. Most members of the family who went westward use the Entriken spelling. One consolation, the different spellings will appear next to each other alphabetically in your index, and most researchers know to consult alternative spellings. A quick aside, the George Entrikin I mentioned as the first well documented ancestor of most of the family is thought to have probably been the son of a man who appears as George Entergun in property records. Definitely a case of a clerk making his best guess on a spelling.

This is so often true. I find it in my Entsminger line. The surname came from the fact the family pre 1600 came from Insming in the border area between now Germany and France-after immigration it became Ensminger and then Insminger, Entsminger. In the case of the last spelling it happened in VA in the 1700s to get the neigbors to pronounce the name to the satisfaction of old Henreick. The only thing I am sure of is that after 1800 my line spelled it Entsminger and before that anything close is no doubt kin. This family came into Chester Co and then moved on to Lancaster! Ginny

Same family, though different branches adopted different spellings. The first Entrikin, et al, in Chester Co.who descendants can definitely trace back to was George Entrikin, c 1710-1786, of East Bradford, who became a Quaker and married Mary Woodward. There are some misc early Entrikins in the Chester Co area that can't be definitely traced but were perhaps cousins or siblings of George. My gr-gr grandmother was Hannah Amanda Entrikin of Delaware Co. The surname is thought to be lowland Scot.

I can't imagine that these are different names....I would bet money they are different spellings of the SAME name...after all, phonetically, they'd all sound alike, and the records were written by clerks who spelled names the way they 'sounded' as if they should be spelled. I've told this story before, but I have a family will where the same woman's name is spelled 3 different ways.....just a clerk who couldn't decide what the spelling was. S.
