Philip and Mary CARREL (CARROLL) in Pennsylvania Mary, wife of Philip CARREL, gave birth to their 5th child Anthony Wayne on 20 February 1806 in Western PA. Their other children were John (1798), Mary (1801), Margaret (1802), Joseph (1804), Catherine (1807), Henry (1809), Jane (about 1811), and Philip (about 1813). This family moved to Jefferson Co., OH by 1813. Philip died in the War of 1812 in December 1813, and his estate was administered in the Court of Common Pleas in Steubenville, OH. That Court also appointed Ephraim CELLARS (Sellers) as guardian for the four oldest children in 1814. I am seeking any information on Philip and Mary (...?) CARREL in Jefferson Co., PA. They were married about 1797. Eric

Hi Tom, I have been trying to help you find James Byer and Margaret Ann Lantz.I have been using the new 1880 National Census & Index by FHL.When I used the National Index and Margaret Byer name and b,1836,I came up with all the variations of Byer,Beyer,Byers, Beard,Bahr etc for a total of 33.Then I ran James Byer and there 187 of them.Then I ran James Byer in the Census in Pa.There was no James with a wife named Margaret.That is for all counties in Pa.Could James be a middle name that he went by? What was his DOB ? I guessed his age about the same as hers + a few years. The 33 names of Margaret from the National Index showed no Margarets born in Pa and being in a Census in another State.Do you have any other information that you have'nt mentioned?He must be on that same sheet with my GGF Turner,I can't find him either.That's why I have all these CD's.
