Posted on: Pennsylvania Dutch Queries Board URL: http://cgi.rootsweb.com/~genbbs/genbbs.cgi/USA/Pa/Dutch?read=4711 Surname: Addison, Rahn, Bender, Lightner ------------------------- I do not know when the Rahn line left Pa if they were ever there. Our Rahns were in Nebraska as early as March 22, 1877 the date that Phaniah Alice Baltzly maried Gotthilf Rahn. Phaniah's ancestors left Pa as early as 1807 for Ohio and then some of the family moved on to Nebraska. Sorry no known kin in this line in Adams County. The name Addison comes from Marie Addison who Jesse Ray Rahn married on December 14, 1916. They had one child Norma Lorene, born May 10, 1921. I noted that several of your Lightner people were from Mount Joy in Lancaster Co. PA. My ggggrandfather Jacob Bender was born in or near Mount Joy in 1800. If you come across any Bender people at Mount Joy I would be interested in learning about them. Thank you.
