Hi, Thanks to Craig, Richard and Donna for your input about the Occupational Tax Processing recordst.  I'm hoping to make it to Gettysburg this year, so I'll be looking up the records for any info on my ancestors. BTW, I found my ggg-grandmother's birth in 1828 registered in the Adams County Courthouse records.  They kept the birth records in a book and each person had one line. I got a photocopy from the court house. I hope this helps, Dot. Take care, Susan Alexander Llauget
