Hi folks, Please forgive me for being so bold, but I feel I must. I live in Upper Dauphin County, and Henninger is quite a famous name in these parts. Are you searching for ancestors, and aren't finding them in Bucks Co.? Now that I'm out here in the boonies, I might be able to help you find info on your family. Just write to me if you need some assistance on searches. I'm not a genealogist, just doing many searches of my own and might be able to catch the proverbial two birds with one stone! Sincerely, Linda Tyson Meyers Davenport now in upper Dauphin County arel@epix.net
Hi Jim, First of all, please call me Linda, or Linda D. to differentiate between us Lindas on the list. :-) I don't know where my parents were living when I was born (at Abington Hospital), but we lived in Trevose for the first 6 months of my life, then we moved to Yardley, right on River Road with a 25-ft. drop to the Delaware directly in front of our house, and the canal directly behind us... oh, and a bull in the pasture on the other side of the alley back to the canal. We then moved to Willow Grove with my gr-parents, then to Horsham until I was married. My new hubby and I found this ancient house with many apartments in it in the town of Keller's Church (right next to the ol' swimming hole where we spent most of our summer weekends during my teen years. Our landlord and wife were "Mr. & Mrs. Luschack". We always told folks that we moved to "... Keller's Church, and we had 3 pews and a *path*". Had you ever seen it, you would know what we were talking about. The kitchen of our apartment was the former 2nd story sun porch, 7 ft. wide by 17 ft. long with five 5-ft windows, at the end of which was a bathroom 7 ft. wide by 4 ft. (Long??). You had to know what you wanted to do before entering, as it was one-way traffic, no matter what. Ceilings were 11-1/2 ft. high, btw. We lived there for only one year before moving back to Hatboro, then to Willow Grove, and then 20 years ago, back to Bucks Co., Feasterville. After my hubby died (2nd one), I sold the big old farmhouse built by Jonathann Knight in 1849, and bag, baggage, six dogs and their outdoor kennels, moved to this quaint little town of Gratz in Upper Dauphin County. I believe that I've been following my first hubby's ancestors all over the map, because George Meyers/Myers has been popping out of his Hobbit Hole in all those places! My maiden name was Tyson, a direct male tail-line of one of the "Original 13" Palatines who came over with Francis Pastorius in 1683 - Reinor Tyson. Just last year I connected with a woman just a few years younger than I, we are cousins sharing the same grandparents (gr-grandparents in my case) - William and Catherine (Rinker) Tyson, so at least my father's ancestors are pretty well carved in stone, no bricks. Even my dad's mother's family is pretty well concrete. My great-grandmother was off the boat at 3 years old or so, her mother immigrated with her little ones from Nottinghamshire and settled in Germantown. She eventually married James Woodroffe (sp. varies, it seems!), and he was a policeman in the Germantown area. My dad's sister has provided me with most of her memory, and at almost 94, she's sharp as a tack!!! Their parents lived to their late 90's, with granddad working up to age 97 as a builder/carpenter. On the distaff side, my mother's maiden name was Templeton, her mother's maiden name Shinn, and another fairly filled-in genealogy back to John Irick Shinn who came to America on the Good Ship Kent, settling in Burlington. The distaff side there is the Cranmer/Cramner/Crammer bunch from the Piney's of NJ - all being able to trace their ancestry back to Archbishop Thomas Cranmer of England. Of course, I have missing links in there. And on the Templetons, who came over from Scotland (Ireland). Such fun it is to have at least 1/2 of my pedigree identified. I know all of the area you are talking about. So often we drove over and around Haycock Mtn. to get to Quakertown. The best man for the first wedding was James Mitchner - but not the famous one! It has always saddened me to know that the old swimming hole is no longer, and the ancient Luschack grounds are gone... and the little old Keller's Church post office with the ancient postmistress. I was only 18 and 19 when we lived there - and that was 50 years ago this summer. Some wild stories to tell about that year, too. By chance, do you remember the general store at the corner of Applebachsville Road and the old Rt. 563? The couple who ran it had a baby boy who was the BIGGEST baby I ever saw... until my first son was born. But at least my son Jeff was more bone than blubber. I love to drive, always did. Wherever I've lived, I've gotten to know the surrounding areas like the back of my hand. Remember Lover's Leap? You could take some shady lanes up the mountain in Ferndale to the spot overlooking the Delaware River - where supposedly a couple ended their lives by leaping off the cliff. That area is now a good 3-4 hour drive from my new territory - but I'd need no map to find my way. The Harrow Inn was the old hotel at the corner of Rts. 611 and 412. Going toward Ferndale, there was a fork off to the right which took you into the section called Revere. And, if you took those roads, you could wend your way down to the river and through the woods to Stover Park. I think that family is in my first hubby's pedigree - and I'll find it some day. My first son's S.O. lived in Kintnersville for a while, right on Rt. 611. If you need "country" like I need country, then Gratz (or Lykens Valley) would be your ideal, the nicest town in Upper Dauphin County, just a stone's throw from the Schuylkill Co. line. There is a mountain right to the south of me, I could yell to friends up on their campsite from my house (the rest of Gratz would hear every word I said, too). "Oh, no!" I said to all my friends who were worried about my moving into Coal-cracker Country. "No coal mines near ME!", I said. Ha!!! Short Mountain is solid coal, and the coal mining, thankfully, is on the *other* side of the mountain in Wiconisco and Lykens, and on north off of Route 209. Solid coal - and I've become fascinated with it, and this year will be investigating all the mines from here to Centralia (which is still burning). I'll even get into a mine by hook or crook, and will be sure to have lotza pictures of some of the old batch houses and colliery towns - prob'ly as soon as I finish reading about St. Clair. If ANY of you folks go yard-saleing or flea-marketing and see those old centennial, bi-centennials of Dauphin, Schuylkill, Berks, Lehigh... anything of NE Penna., please think of me, buy the book, and I'll reimburse you for it. You can even read it first, if you wish! :-D Or, genealogy books on Meyers of any spelling, Stoltz, Stahl, or anything close! Up to $35 on a good book is my workable price range. Gee, we might even be able to inaugurate a Book Swap by this method! Thank you, Jim, for the opportunity for more reminiscing. It brought back some really great memories for me. There's a covered bridge back in the area of New Galena, where we went fishing in my teens. We stumbled across Ted Williams one day, enjoying the same sport. But, we knew he looked familiar, but couldn't place him - until later. I'd bet he chuckled all the way home, finally running across a few bumpkins who didn't recognize him and fall down in a swoon. Not to matter - my hubby met him in New England at one of his conventions, and I am the proud owner of a ball signed to Linda and Bob Davenport, from, who else? - Ted Williams!! Uhm... what's the "Ms USA"? Thanks for the memories! Linda Tyson Meyers Davenport ---------- Quoting jimone2@telapex.com: > Ms. Davenport, > > I am a lurker on this list.

Listers, I can't speak for others nor want to but I think the main reason for not using all capitals or UPPER case as some prefer is the fact that reading all upper case or caps is more difficult.
