Audrey: (the name alone stirs up fond memories of my first infatuation) I haven't looked into the Redseckers as yet, since that is taking me away from the YOUNG connection to my wife Katie's Aunt ALICE YOUNG WEALAND. It seems strange that with so many YOUNGs from the Dauphin County area, I can't tie into Alice Young's parents. > I checked my Dauphin County Burial Database (over 10,000 in that) and did NOT > find any YOUNGs of the names you are looking for.

If you have grave locations for the Mt. Tunnel Cemetery, perhaps you can tell me where two elusive WEALANDs are buried. The ones along the roads I found; two are still missing. Leon Daily's daughter is in the process of computerizing the Middletown Cemetery burials. I'd be happy to take a look at those listings, and complete a lot of my unfinished history. It's so big, walking the rows turned up very little. Especially when some of the stones are in opposite directions along the same rows! That makes it tough. Best of regards, and thanks again for caring. -- CHARLES EARL FIES -- Fies Family Fotos <http://home.att.net/~chasfies/> BABB - HARTMAN <http://home.att.net/~chasfies/Babbs.html> DAUPHIN CO.
