Nothing in the book, sorry. The name Weirich is quite prevalent in Lebanon county and there are quite a few lineages there, but much earlier than the one you've given. I would suspect that his parents or grandparents came from Lebanon county which is where so many of Dauphin county residents originated from.

I'm looking for info on the Jacob Weirich family. He was born in 1817. His wife, Mary ????. They had a daughter, Elmira (Fannie)--my great grandmother. Thanx, Sassy J. in So CA ************************************** See what's free at http://www.aol.com.

I've "rescued" an old photograph identified as Ellen LENGLE which was taken at the J. S. Aunspach Studio in Pillow, Pennsylvania. The photograph appears to have been taken in the 1870's or 1880's with Ellen likely in her 20's at the time it was taken. I'm hoping to be able to return the photograph to its rightful place with family. If she is a member of your family, or if you know someone who might be, please contact me. Thanks, Shelley

My current research is focused on Mary Snyder (Snider) listed in Middletown in the census years of 1830 and 1840. She has a son listed of the right age range to be my great grandfather George Snyder born June 1823 in PA. If Mary is indeed the mother of my George, then George has a brother near his age (5-10 in 1830), a brother 8-13 years older than George, and another brother 13-23 years older than George. The John Snyder, age 60, listed in my George's 1860 Michigan household fits a son of Mary listed as age 20 - 30 in Mary's 1830 household. The 1850 Census of Middletown lists a Simon Snyder household, Simon age 25, which would fit as a younger brother of my George. George is 27 in 1850. Questions: 1) Was Mary born in Germany? 2) What was her husband's name and was he born in Germany? 3) Did Mary have a son George born in 1823? 4) Was the 1860 John Snyder, age 60, also Mary's son? Does anyone have information on this family? Bob in MI

Hi Mary; There are many MOYERS in the book: 1) Benjamin F., born 1841 in Lower Paxton and a son of Daniel and Rebecca (Gettle) Moyer; 2) Elkanah D., born 1869 in Berks county, a son of Jeremiah E. and Melinda S.
