This is a Message Board Post that is gatewayed to this mailing list. Surnames: Weiser/ Lamison/ Little/ Kirk/ Snowden/ Hobbins/ Mitchell Classification: Query Message Board URL: http://boards.ancestry.com/mbexec/msg/an/JaB.2ACE/1520.2425.1 Message Board Post: My Great- great great grandmother was Ida Matilda LAMISON, b. 1852. She married my Great great grandfather, George WEISER, b. 1842/43. They had 3 sons ~ Elwood LAMISON WEISER,b.3/10/1871 d. btw. 1929 -1930 He was my Great-grandfather, roy and Lee. On 1880 PA CENSUS they appear as: Elwood LAMISON age 9 Roy age 7 Lee age 3 At the time of the census they were living in the Village of Donaldson, Frailey Twp., Schuylkill co., PA. I located my Great-g-grandparents also on the 1870 PA CENSUS as living in the Borough of Minersville M593_1447,pg. 92A, 406/406. On this George is listed as age 26 and Ida as 18 with a servent Margaret FERGERTY age 13. Possibly she was pregnant with my Great-grandfather at the time. Not knowing her parents' names I haven't been able to locate her before that on the 1850 Census. I have come across the names of Roland LAMISON and Jacob LAMISON on the 1820 PA Census, Roll: M33_98, Image 73, pg. 67. Can't tell their ages, names of wives or children because of the types of info gathered in that census. There were a goodly number of children in various age categories for both men. I am try to investigate both men further. There is a Jacob H. LAMISON listed in the 1st. PA Res. Infantry as a private for the Union. don't know if this is same Jacob. Please let me know if you have come across any information on her. I'll try to keep an eye out for you LAMISON. Thanks

This is a Message Board Post that is gatewayed to this mailing list. Surnames: Brenizer Classification: Query Message Board URL: http://boards.ancestry.com/mbexec/msg/rw/JaB.2ACE/2299.2492.1 Message Board Post: There seem to have been two Brenizer families in Pennsylvania in the late 1700's and early 1800's. One has been traced back to Germany the other (ours) has not. I don't have either a John Albert nor a Joseph R. in my data base. That does not mean that they are not connected to our side of the family. Our Brenizers were in Cumberland County, PA, then York County, PA, then to Maryland and then to Morrow County, Ohio. Do you have any more information concerning dates or places for either of them? I had wondered who Ella was.
