Hello all, I'm new to this list. Was hoping someone might know about the Fry family of Chambersburg. My Fry connection goes back to Pennsylvania, but not sure exactly where. Only clue is a handwritten letter to my relatives in Ohio dated 1845 from a Samuel Fry in Chambersburg. Didn't say which state, but I put two and two together. I'm hoping it is more than a coincidence that Samuel Fry was writing from Chambersburg. There are many names in the letter, too, but they are not familiar to me. So my first task is to find out who knows about the Fry family (if anyone). My second task will be to ask you for suggestions (online resources and places to write to). Thanks, Kim Golding Tacoma, WA kg@nventure.com
I have a Family of FREY from Chambersburg. Frederick, born about 1818 in Bava and his wife Catherine Artz born 1826 in Germany. Their known children are Frederick b. 1853, Louisa 1856, Emma b. 1860, Elizabeth b. 1867 and Hanna b. 1868. I have not run across any Samuel FRY/FREY but let me check couple places for you.
