My apologies, with explanation: Frequently women are listed by maiden name, and sometimes 'husband of'. To make the listing of thousands of names useful and meaningful, I sort alphabetically by Last name given. This separated Elizabeth from Norman, but I put her back in her rightful place (where she always anyhow, regardless of what my database said!) I also left her in the "W" listing, and notice she is in the same row of, most likely, her mother, father and grandparents. Also Witmer siblings pop up on the "W" page. This provides TWO pieces of information: natural family and married family. Sound OK? I've delayed responding waiting for a nice day to confirm my listings with photographs, but the weather isn't cooperating. In this dreary atmosphere, the headstones are almost illegible to my camera. -- Regards, CHARLES EARL FIES -- Fies Family Fotos <http://home.att.net/~chasfies/> FIES/FEES Family History Research Site <http://www.fies-fees.org> BABB - HARTMAN <http://home.att.net/~chasfies/Babbs.html> DAUPHIN CO.
