http://www.footnote.com/ You might try searching the Pennsylvania Archives at the link above. If it doesn't work, go to www.iarchives.com and scroll down to the bottom and click on 'Demos'. You then have to scroll down to Pennsylvania. They have made some changes to this site since I last visited it. Only Series 1,8 and 9 plus the Colonial Records are on there now. Does anyone else know of another site that would have other series?

Yes, John Hoffman/Huffman had a son born in 1860 by the name of John K. Hoffman b Bucks Co., PA and died 1936 Warren Co., IA. Bev

Elizabeth States married John Robinson Risdon in October 1868 at All Saints Parsonage, Eddington, B.C., Penn. The marriage certificate reads; "married at All Saints Parsonage, Eddington, B.C. according to the laws of the State of Pennsylvania and the rites of the Episcopal Church / F.W. Beasley D.D. / Rector of All Saints, 23rd ward, L.D. Philadelphia. "Early Clergy of Pennsylvania & Delaware" says......"Dr. Frederick W. Beasley.........spent many years in the rectory at Eddington, holding what was called Oak Grove Chapel, in connection with All Saints Church, several miles below and in later years the chapel of the Redeemer at Andalusia was also under his care." I'm assuming that B.C. stands for Bucks County and that Eddington was, or is, a town in Bucks County. Has anyone heard of All Saints Church (Episcopal) in Eddington, B.C.? Is there a cemetery connected with the church? Has anyone heard of Oak Grove Chapel? Was this church in any way connected to the All Saints Episcopal Church (Torresdale) located at 9601 Frankford Ave. (Philadelphia)? Any insights appreciated. Thanks. Andy

Scott The following descendant chart of Ernest Wagoner b 1790. I was wondering if you found Ernest Wagoner in your family information. Daniel Wagoner b. 1829 son of Ernest is my connection.

Thank you to all that responded to my e-mail subject names. Hoffman was a very common name in Germany and in PA. I have John Hoffman born 1829 in Germany. On his death certificate is states that George Hoffman/Huffman was his Father. I do not have a Mary Elizabeth (Marillas) Hoffman in my database. Maureen in CA above this question. Sue, sent a lot of information on the Hoffman. Sue, I don't see anything on a George or John Hoffman in that information. John Hoffman was in Maryland in 1854 when his first son was born. John Hoffman and his second wife Margaretha Muller/Miller moved to Marion County, Iowa around 1870. Nicholas Hoch and his family moved to Marion County, IA about the same time. Nicholas Hoch wife was Catharine Baeirlipp b 1818 Bavaria, Germany. On John Hoffman death certificate it states that his Mother's maiden name was Baeirlipp. John's Mother and Catherarine Baeirlipp could have been sisters. Just going by dates and can not prove. In Marion Co., IA John Hoffman daughter Louisa Hoffman, born in PA, married Jacob Smith. Louisa and Jacob were my grgrandparents. This is where the Smith is connected to the Hoffman. Smith is a very common name to research. The Hoffman's could have been in Indiana for awhile. My grgrgrandfather Jacob Smith, SR enlisted in the Mexican War in 1847 at Brookville, Franklin Co., IN. One of John Hoffman son's John K. Hoffman b 1860 Bucks Co., PA maried Philomena Bauer in Logansport, Indiana in 1908. Baerlipp is spelled several different ways. The name could have been Baerliss. Thank you all again. Bev Jones

I hope that the Church of Latterday saints have good records if so i have found some new names that belong to Bucks Co PA Surnames are Paxson Hartley Means plumly Thompson If anyone can help me verify these families be appreciated they are my moms lines. Billie Keaffaber I can be e-mailed at [email protected]_ (mailto:[email protected]) Thank you Very Much (mailto:[email protected])

Thanks Lynn! I'm grabbing at straws it seems. You helped me with John's will, though, remember? John eventually bought the Trauger farm in Hunterdon County, NJ in 1806 and passed away in 1807. So I'm thinking his sons William and John were probably born and/or lived their adult lives in NJ. I found them both on the 1830 census with large families in Hunterdon County where my ggGran William, gGran Wesley and Grandfather Archibald Moore were born. 90 of the original 150 acres is still in the Moore family!

There have been Huffman's and Hoffman's in Ohio (my roots); however I have not known any of them well. Hoffman was used as a middle name in my Paxton family in Ohio. At first, I thought it might have been a memorial, as there is a Hoffman Memorial Methodist Church in West Milton, Miami County, Ohio, but after receiving their history, I do not think that is the reason. The Hoffman name was utilized when the family was in Logan and Clinton Counties several generations before the Jennings' moved to West Milton. Some of the Paxson/Paxtons lived in Bucks County, PA, and lost property because as "Friends", they would not fight in the Revolutionary War. My ancestors were in PA, NJ,VA,NC, before becoming some of the earlier settlers of Ohio at the time it became a state (1803). Reuben Paxson/Paxton, the latter spelling on the Champaign County census of 1810 and 1820. Various members of the same family used different spellings, which has made the research a challenge!

Sorry to say there is nothing in The History of Bucks County by W.W.H. Davis about John Moore. Catherine & Christiana are mentioned with their respective husbands but their parents aren't even named. Lynn Tinsley

Your narrative makes sense, Anne, as there were also Paxtons/Paxons way back in those family trees. The families I named in my earlier email intermarried over a couple of hundred years before they moved west, though I did not see the Huffman/Hoffman name involved until after they left PA, but on censuses, they said they were from PA. -----Original Message----- From: [email protected] [mailto:[email protected]] Sent: Thursday, October 12, 2006 5:21 PM To: [email protected]; [email protected] Cc: [email protected] Subject: Re: [PABUCKS] Hoffman in Bucks Co, PA / PAXSON/PAXTON In a message dated 10/12/2006 4:43:57 PM Eastern Daylight Time, [email protected] writes: Subj: Re: [PABUCKS] Hoffman in Bucks Co, PA / PAXSON/PAXTON Date: 10/12/2006 4:43:57 PM Eastern Daylight Time From: [email protected] Reply-to: [email protected] To: [email protected] Sent from the Internet Thank you very much for your reply.

Hi everyone, I'm researching the ancestors/descendents of John Moore 1752-1807. He married Ann Kimball (Kimple) 1789-1843. I've done as much research as I can on ancestry.com and rootsweb. Do not know who their parents were. They lived in Nockamixon in the late 1700's into the early 1800's. They are both buried in Upper Black Eddy in the Pursell graveyard. They had 11children that I know of. Oldest daughters were born in Bucks County, Christiana Moore b.1781 married John Williams. Catherine Moore b.1784 married Brice Pursell. Elizabeth Moore b.1786 married James Iliff...all from Bucks County, Nockamixon or Tinicum Townships. One of John and Ann's son's, either William or John, was my gggGrandfather. I don't have their birthdates or the names of their wives and children. William had at least 8 children, John had at least 10. One of them, William L. Moore...was my ggGrandfather. I was wondering if anyone has access to The History of Bucks County, PA, Volume l, II, III Bucks County Genealogies and would be willing to do a look-up. Or any information about John Moore and Ann Kimball of Nockamixon would be greatly appreciated. Thanks, Susan Moore Raff

I have been curious for a long time about HUFFMAN/HOFFMANs who might have gone to Ohio and Indiana along with SMITHs, BUCKMANs and BLAKERs from the Buckingham and Wrightstown areas. This would have been between 1820 and 1860.
