I'd better post this where others and I myself can find it; Tim Riker's Riker family history page covers two New York Riker families and a single southeastern Pennsylvania Richter become Ricker and Riker famliy that left descendants in Ohio, and in Chestnut Level, in Lancaster County, PA. A few miles from the Maryland border; members of this family could at times have strayed into both Cecil County, and the country immediately below York County, PA. Chestnut Level appears to be in Drumore township. About 12 miles north is Safe Harbor, in Conestoga township, which is immediately north of Drumore township - I think. It isn't easy to make out details on those online topographical maps! http://riker.dsl.inconnect.com/riker.htm Riker family history Yours, Dora Smith __________________________________________________ Do You Yahoo!?
