FANNIE, WHERE ARE YOU? > > can you help Charles? > >Dick Miller :) >Sebring, Fla It looks like you exhausted ALMOST all the sources in your search, EXCEPT the Middletown Cemetery. Many people have documented it's records, but I know of no publication as of yet. During the growing season, its almost impossible to catch the caretaker in his office. A record check there may dig up Frances/Fanny Landis. The time frame is right. You didn't mention her church affiliation while married to Abraham. That just might be a good lead, also. Sorry I can't be more helpful :) Keep digging, and she just may pop up for you. -- 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.
