Fred, I know that some researchers use all capital letters for surnames. Maybe some feel they are easier to read or stand out in an e-mail correspondence. Happy searching and researching everyone. It's wonderful to see the sharing of information. Nancy Rambo, Runkel, Hoffmaster, Romig, Brophy, all Berks County

I am looking for information on a Lawrence Eisenberg and Mary/Maria Kopp who were married there in 1790. At the time of the marriage they were both listed as being from Douglas. They had 1 daughter Catherine who might have been christened in the church in 1791-1792. Mary died in 1792, but place of burial is unknown. Lawrence is buried at St. Gabriel's next to his 2nd wife. At time of marriage or child's christening were any other members of the family mentioned? Is Mary's death recorded with place of burial? Any clue would be greatly appreciated. Thanks in advance.

What happened to the style of using proper capitalization and the genealogy standard of making surnames all caps? ____________________________________________________________ Stop foreclosure.

This is something I have often wondered about as well.  I believe that, on the whole, society has decided to just not take the time to capitalize when they should, not to mention proper punctuation.  I think that it really helps those of us looking for a specific name to see all of the letters in the surname capitalized.  Otherwise the posting may be thrown away without seeing if someone is in their family tree. I agree with Nancy ... it is good to see someone else care about this.

One of my great grandmother's was a woman named Anna D. Schmidt. I saw your inquirery on the Schmidt Family of Montgomery County, PA. I have recently retired from the U.S. Navy and now live in Florida. All of my immediate family live in Montgomery County, PA. I have had a lot of time on my hands since I retired several months ago. I started doing my family's gemology. I am interested in all the names you have listed on the Schmidt family. Unfortunately, none of the name you have listed match any of mine. I wanted to compare notes. Maybe we are talking about the same family? So here is what I know: (All my info was researched on Ancestry.com- U>S. Census 1850,60, 70, 1880). My great grandmother Anna D. Schmidt (b. May, 1882 in Philadelphia, PA or Fredrick Township, PA) she married my great grandfather Martin Kilmer (b. 1881, Socksin, Germany). They were married in 7-14-1901 in Philadelphia. Anna D was the youngest daughter of George E. Schmidt (b. abt Sep, 1848 in Frederick Township, Montgomery County, PA), and Minnie W. ??? (b. abt Sep, 1852 in Germany). Anna D. Schmidt's older siblings: Harriert born abt 1872 George born abt 1874 Augusta born abt 1876 Minnie born abt 1880 George E. Schmidt Anna's father was the son of George F. Schmidt (b. abt 1815 in Germany) married Almira ??? (b. 1823 in CT, USA). They lived in Federick Twp, Montgomery County, PA.. He was a farmer as well as his sons. George F. Schmidt and Almira family: Harriet born abt 1845 George E. born. abt Sept. 1848 Rosine born abt 1851 Edward born abt 1853 Walter Adolf born abt. 1859 Well I hope this is helpfull for you and me. Please let me know what you think and any advice you can add. I would be interest in learning what you know. Thanks, Rob

Lynda, I looked it up and Montour County is a little north and west of Berks County. It is approx 253 miles from Albany. Travel time is similar to the Reading time.

Berks County is in Southeastern PA. Reading is the County Seat. Check your internet map programs for distances and directions. If you are going to visit let us PABerks group know and we will let you know the best places to visit. Michelle in OH In response to this question? Where is Berks located ? Is it a county or township ? I may go to Albany, New York, and would like to know if it is a far distance, like a couple of days to drive to Berks or Montour ?? Is it a few hours dirve from Albany ? Thank you Lynda Leah

Berks County is Northwest of Philadelphia. If you do a MapQuest from Albany to Reading PA you will get the mileage and approximate travel time. Reading is the largest city in the county, and kind of central to everything else there. It won't take you a couple of days to get there, but if your aim is to do research, you might want a couple of WEEKS once you are there! And you will need at least that much time to enjoy the good PA Dutch food! -----Original Message----- From: paberks-bounces@rootsweb.com [mailto:paberks-bounces@rootsweb.com] On Behalf Of gc-gateway@rootsweb.com Sent: Thursday, August 07, 2008 6:20 PM To: PABERKS-L@rootsweb.com Subject: [PABERKS] Where is Berks ?
