>I am looking for the Mader family history. Lillie Mader was born in >1856 in East Hanover. I know she died in Jonestown in 1921. Her father >was Elias. I am not able to discover his parentage or his birth place. Is >anyone researching this name? I have, in the past 6 to 9 months, discovered a Mader ancestor of my own and begun researching this family. The person in question is a Lucinda Mader (d. 1892) who married a Daniel Wenrich (d. 1873) and lived in the West Hanover Township, Dauphin County and later in Harrisburg. I have relatively little information on the Mader line, and I know nothing of Lillie Mader or her father Elias. From the sound of it, however, you Maders and mine lived in the same general area, so there may well be a connection. Dave dablauch@davidson.edu
