Hi Donna, Please forgive the broadcast method here, but I'm new at these lists. Are you perchance related to or have any information regarding Elizabeth Slentz Zinn, or more particularly, her father, Nicholas Slentz? Elizabeth Zinn was the wife of John R Zinn, and lived in McSherrystown, PA. She died in May 1914. (This info from the Adams County News - Gettysburg - May 16, 1914 edition as obtained from Ancestry.com). Elizabeth was identified as the daughter of Nicholas Slentz. I am trying to see if I can find a link between my own great-great-great grandfather, Joseph Slentz, also of McSherrytown, and the said Nicholas Slentz. Joseph lived in Adams County all of his life, from what I can gather. He was born sometime in 1816 and died sometime prior to October 1892. Nicholas Slentz was also a long-time resident of Adams County. I believe Joseph may have been his son, although I have never been able to establish it, or anything remotely resembling it either, for that matter. Any information you may have on Nicholas and his family would be greatly appreciated. Bill Margerum Kirkland, WA 02/11/2004
