Hi Vivian, There was some opposition at the meeting the other night to the whole concept because it would attract tourists, and some people in Lancaster County have an aversion to tourists because they clog these back country roads. I don't think what the Planning Commission is looking at will draw all that many tourists, there is a limited amount of interest in Heritage Tourism.

Thanks for this message. It deals with the Dillerville west of the city of Lancaster, which is different from the Dillerville under question at the place where the Penna. RR crosses U. S. Rt. 30 well east of the city of Lancaster. My interest actually stems from research regarding church history, specifically of the former St. Paul's Lutheran Church, Dillerville (on the west side of the city), a congregation no longer extant but whose building cornerstone does remain.

The index on Heritage Quest Online for the 1860 census shows 17 Keen listings in Lancaster Co., PA. Mostly in Eden Twp., but there are a few in Paradise Twp., Leacock Twp. & Bart Twp. In the 1820 census material, there is a Henry Keen (with a household of 6) in Lancaster, Lancaster Co., PA. For Keens, the 1860 census shows 4 Keens households in Millersville, Lancaster Co., PA. For Keene, the 1860 has 7 Keene households in Strasburg Twp., Penn Twp., and Providence Twp. John, Catharine & family in 1880 census: Series: T9 Roll: 1141 Page: 256 (Mt.

Hope this helps. Just found this at http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/ Dillerville,_Pennsylvania Dillerville is an extinct hamlet in Lancaster County, Pennsylvania, United States. Dillerville was established between the Harrisburg and Manheim pikes, at the intersection of the Lancaster and Reading railroads.[1] It is sometimes called Dillerville, and sometimes called Dillersville. The USPS database uses the singular spelling for Dillerville Road, as does Mapquest's database. Searching on Google shows the singular spelling to be about six times as popular. The Dillerville name lives on in the Conrail maintenance yard in Lancaster, a wetlands known as the Dillerville swamp, and in Dillerville Road. In 1910, this was the first steel boxcar purchased by the Raritan River RR. Later, it became a tool shed at Dillerville Conrail yard. According to an 1855 publication, the Pennsylvania Railroad, double- tracked, runs east from Dillerville 69 miles (111 km) to Philadelphia and west to Columbia; at Dillerville, there is a junction with the Harrisburg, Portsmouth, Mount Joy and Lancaster Railroad, which extends 36 miles (58 km) to Harrisburg.[2] An 1864 atlas of Lancaster County shows six property owners in Dillerville: Benjamin Herr, Henry Huber, Hy Holl, Patrick McLaughlin, Samuel Ruth, and Emil Shober.[3] Lue E. Huber, age 42, died in Dillerville on April 16, 1893[4] and Viola Keith, age 1 year, on Mar 1, 1888[5] according to inscriptions on their headstones. In the Lancaster County Historical Society Vol. 53, No. 3, p.87[6] a list of teachers for the one-room schoolhouse is given as: * In 1851-52 James Benson was teaching a group of 44 including the names Ruth Hall, McGrann, Schreiner, Huber, Smith, McGlaughlan, Blizzard, hackman, Swails, Graft and Getz. The school was referred to as No. 5 and was located "on the west side of Dillerville Lane opposite the lane that led to the Brennan Farm". * About 1895, Harry R. Bassler * about 1900, Miss Anna Eby * 1903, Miss Ada Burkholder (Shuman) * 1904, Mr. Evans * 1905, Dr. J.G. Hess * 1906, C. H. Martin (Treasurer of the historical society) with fifty-five pupils in eight grades * 1907, John Matter * Later, and for twenty years, it was occupied as a dwelling by Frank Heisler. In 1999, students from the Lancaster Academy planted more than 500 wetland plants, including buttonbush, soft-stem bullrush, water iris and silky dogwood in an 8-acre (32,000 m2) wetland near Red Rose Commons, known as the Dillerville Swamp.[7] [edit] Geography Leaman Place is located at 40°0′26″N 76°7′0″ W / 40.00722°N 76.116667°W / 40.00722; -76.116667 (40.007222, -76.116667)[8], and is 385 feet (117 m) above mean sea level.

John A Kuhns/Kuntz, b. 1825 in Lancaster Co., he was a son of Michael Kuntz of Lancaster Co., In about 1845 he married Sarah Keen or Keens. They had two children, Sarah Ann Elizabeth and Henry W., and she died about 1851. I can find no information about a Keens family in the area. John and Sarah lived for a while in Dauphin County, and John and second wife, Catherine, lived out their lives in Mt Joy. Sarah A E married Joshua Geib/e in Mt. Joy. Does anyone have anything that can help? Nancy Blackwell
Hi Nancy, You need to localize your information to narrow down the search. You have localized the latter information but not the early information that might help you find a solution. For example, where was John A. Kuhns born ? Where did his father Michael live ? There is a good chance that John A. grew up in the same neighborhood that Sarah Keen grew up. This allows you to narrow down the search area. People tended to marry those who lived near them, the transportation system was very primitive in those days. There were no automobiles, no trolleys and the only railroad was the Columbia-Philadelphia Railroad and that only ran irregularily. The primary means of transportation was on foot or by horseback and both only moved about 3 miles per hour so people tended to marry those who lived within a mile or two of their home. Researchers tend to not use location as a tool to trace people, its not an important tool now but it was then. If your researching a common name location can be more important than even the surname. Its possible that Sarah's father died before she was married and that is why you are having trouble tracking the family, if the mother remarried that can make the kids invisible until they are old enough to show up on census returns. I would check the 1840 census index for Kuhns and Keen and find where Michale Kuhns lived and see if there were any Keens living nearby. Also, where were John A and Sarah Keen married ? And by whom ? This will give you a clue to church records. If you can locate a township or town for the Keen family then check the Index to Lancaster County Wills and Intestate Records, they have it on Google Books and see if you can locate a Keen who died prior to 1850 in the location you have placed the Kuhns family. You may then find useful information in Orphans Court records that will mention the father and mother and any siblings. You can also check the Census for 1850 and 1860s to see where Keens were living in Lancaster County, are any living in the same Community that the Kuhns are living in ? They could possibly be Sarah's brothers and checking on them might be easier than trying to chase down Sarah. Location is an important element in doing genealogy and if you know it you should use it, if you don't know it then the first order of business should be to find it. Lancaster County is far too vague an area, you need to focus on a location.

The 1864 atlas shows Paradise, then Leaman Place east of it, along the Lincoln Highway with no other places labeled between them. The place marked as Dillerville on the google map is where the railroad tracks cross the Lincoln Highway. A toll house was located there back when this was a toll road. The earlier Melish-Whiteside map does not have it labeled: http://www.phmc.state.pa.us/bah/dam/rg/di/r17-534WhitesideMaps/r017-Map3362-WhitesideLancaster%20(88-21).pdf The book "Paradise, Out Heritage, Our Home" on the history of Paradise Township, does not mention Dillerville under the chapter on towns within Paradise Township.

A friend has sent me the reference below to ³Dillerville PA 17562.² That ZIP Code is for Paradise, Lancaster Co, and the location seems to be at present-day Leaman Place. the atlas of 1899 shows the site as Leaman Place, but does anyone have an atlas older than that which shows a settlement there called ³Dillerville?² The Dillerville as per Dillerville Road lay adjacent to that road to the east, with its only street, Market Street, where the current big drive-in to the Armstrong World Industries property is. Dillerville existed at the time the road, then known s Old Reading Road, crossed the Pennsylvania and Reading railroad tracks at grade. So what is this reference to Dillerville at Leaman Place?

The history of Trinity Church includes a sad record of strained relationships between Pr. Baker and some in his congregation, causing him to leave in some ere of bad feelings, preaching his last sermon on 30 January 1853 after 25 years of pastoral ministry there. Pr. Baker was heavily involved in creating Woodward Hill Cemetery, Trinity's new burial place in light of their old cemetery right around the church "filling up." And while he left in some degree of negative feeling, he was buried at Woodward Hill, right along the driveway just south of the original chapel building there (now a storage building). Dr. Baker was replaced at Trinity Church by Pr. Gottlieb Frederich Krotel, whose body was also brought back to Lancaster for burial in Woodward Hill, in this case from New York City. Karl E.

Join the Lancaster County Planning Commission and the Conestoga Area Historical Society in a discussion of the Great Conestoga Road tomorrow night at Gundel Hall of the society at 51 Kendig Road, Conestoga, Pa. We are located behind the Conestoga Wagon restaurant and next to the Conestoga Pool. The Planning Commission would like to see this designated as a Historic By-way but what route ? The path taken by the Mennonites in 1709 or a later variation on the route ? Daniel Ness will present a slide show on the roads history and routes. Come join the discussion. Jim
Closson Press has 4 books on early Trinity Lutheran records. Some libraries have them. I bought one because I could not find anywhere else.

I believe he was at Trinity Lutheran in Lancaster. The church holds the original records and would include marriages performed by Rev. Baker. I'm working on a list of ministers mentioned in the newspaper marriages, but can't tell you his full name right now. http://www.trinitylancaster.org/historyarchicves.php On Mon, Nov 15, 2010 at 4:29 PM, JRBinkley <jrbfamily@zoominternet.net>wrote: > Can anyone tell me what church the Rev.
