Darlene, BINGO! Out of the blue, you hit the nail on the head. Yes, it is a rather long story and certainly can be confusing to some who ARE reading the 'mail. My grandfather Samuel Acker Landis and his brother,s and sister moved to Lanc. C. in the late 1800,s. Their parents did the same a bit later and are buried in the Bowmansville area.. Their father William was 8 year,s old in 1842 when HIS parent,s , Abraham and Maria Landis and their family left Montg. Co., PA and moved to Juniata Co., PA. Abraham and Maria were m'd. in 1818 and the account tells us that at THAT time they lived in Montg. co., PA. We believe Abraham may have been b. in Bucks Co., PA, BUT....we have never been able to learn WHO his or Maria Hoover,s parents were???????????????? Now "pray tell" might you explain just who your Juniata folks are/were?? Where do you live now (Graybill, perhaps?) D. Ernest Weinhold (My mother was Martha Elizabeth Landis) DEWeinhold@juno.com
