Hello list, In a query of Engle's notes. I am planning a trip to the Upper Paxton area in April to find the parents of my GGG grandfather, John Yeager/Jager b. Jan. 1, 1792 d. July 20, 1856. John and Susana (Bordner) Yeager/Jager are buried in Riegle Evang. Untd. Breth. Churchyard in Curtin/Miffflin Twp., Dauphin Co. with two children of his first marriage to a Lydia Warner/Wenner. I am quite sure this will lead me to Andreas Jaeger, a Revolutionary War Patriot, as there is an obituary of my GGG grandfather's brother, Joseph, on my web page that states he was a grandson of Andrew. Would there be any notation of this John Yeager/Jager in Engle's notes. I have access to the FTM reader, as I own a few of their CD's, but find their Genealogy program to be a little lacking. I use Legacy. A very good genealogy program, in my opinion that covers many areas of genealogy research. Thank you, in advance, for any assistance.
