Is there anyone on the List who may have researched the baptismal and/or marriage records of the "Old School" Baptist Church in Southampton Twp.? Does the church still have these records from the earliest years up to about 1815? If so, is there an archivist there to whom I could request copies by mail? Or are the records held by another depository? I may have BANES or VANDEGRIFT ancestors who were baptised there. Thanks to anyone who could provide assistance. Howard

Town and Country Pennsburg, Montgomery County, PA Saturday - October 5, 1901 GOLDEN WEDDING The golden wedding anniversary was celebrated last Friday by Mr. and Mrs. Francis BIEHN at the old family homestead near Quakertown. The great farm house, which has weathered the storms of more than half a century, and in which three generations of BIEHNs have grown to manhood and womanhood, was gaily decorated from top to bottom with bright autumn foliage, flages and bunting. Seventy sons and daughters, grandchildren and great grand-children, brothers and sisters, and nephews and nieces were gathered under the paternal roof. Two chefs from Philadelphia had presided over the kitchen and pantry for two days prior to the anniversary banquet, which combined many delicacies prized by the bon vivant with the good things that commonly grace the Pennsylvania farmer's banquet table. The aged couple agree that their 50 years of comradeship had been so happily spent that it seemed more like one decade than five since the nuptial knot was tied. Rev. D.H. REITER of the Quakertown Lutheran Church, occupied a place of honor at the banquet, and delivered an address, in which he revived the life and work of his host and hostess. For 65 years, he said, Farmer BIEHN had been a member, and for at least 60 years a prop and pillar in the church. For 50 years, since the day she came to Quakertown as a bride, Mrs. BIEHN had been an earnest member of the congregation. The husband is 76 and the wife 72 years of age. She was born in Lehigh county, a daughter of Peter WEAVER. Of seven children four are still living. Note: I have no further information on the above. Deborah
