Hi, I am interested in the VanHorn family. I am related to several branches of this family and am currently researching my 4th great grandmother, Rachel, daugther of Bernard & Isobel (Earle) VanHorn who married John Temple. Does anyone know of this family? The VanHorns lived in Upper Makefield and Solebury. The Temples were from Ewing, New Jersey. Looking forward to hearing from you. Regards, Debbie in CT

I would like to request a MILLER / TOMLINSON marriage and obit lookup for Bucks County, PA. Lester MILLER Died Dec. 15, 1980 Warminster, Bucks Co., PA He was born in Philadelphia (I'm a regular on Philly-Roots), but must have left with parents by 1920 (no records after 1910). I have his SSDI listing and a PA death certificate. How do I get an obituary? He was married to Lois TOMLINSON, per his death certificate. They were probably married in the 1930s or 1940s. Lester MILLER was born in 1908. Where do I look for a marriage record? As I am new to Bucks County research, I would appreciate any tips on how to move forward, especially by Internet search or regular mail. (I'm a bit far away for on-site research.) Please respond directly, as well as to the list. Many thanks. Tom White Monrovia, Liberia, West Africa P.S. I have many MILLER in Philadelphia, 1875-onward. _________________________________________________________________ Get your FREE download of MSN Explorer at http://explorer.msn.com/intl.asp

There is a Thomas Janney mentioned several times in "The Colonial Records INDEX." If you are able to get out at all, perhaps a trip to a nearby university library, they may have the volumes of the Pennsylvania Colonial Records. I would think the Pa. State Library in Harrisburg would have the records. Also maybe the Pa State Archives. Sorry I can't help with the address you asked for.
