Ch from 1745, and from Altalaha Ch from 1757 -- all in Tulpehocken or Upper Tulpehocken Tp Charlotte Meldrum's MARRIAGES & DEATH OF MONTGOMERY CO PA 1685-1800 also doesn't show any of them. An Elisabeth Härder [a umlaut] married George Fenstermacher 30 Aug 1796 in Heidelberg Tp, Lehigh Co, per the Johs. Helffrich personal and pastoral records. If your HERDER family left earlier, she may belong to the Martin HERDER who shows up in the area in the 1790s. Important Note: The author of this message may not be subscribed to this list.
