Joe, Many thanks to you all those who participated in this great endeavor. Many of my relatives were parishioners at St. James.

The data are well documented...... Early land records, full wills and estate records to DNA testing encompass methods used. Some families later returned to Philadelphia Co, migrated back and forth to Chester Co, and a few left the area to Cumberland Co and the south. The group which has worked on this project for the past 2-3 years hopes you will enjoy the site. Several graphics are included. [Some additions planned.] This site is linked from the USGenWeb Archives page for Montgomery Co. Here are the surnames of the 1790 Pew Holders, there are MANY others imbedded in the linked pages... Surnames of Pew Holders: Bean Casselberry Couch Custer/Custard Davis Evans Fronefield Lane Markley Newberry Pawling Rambo Rittenhouse Shannon Skeen Swain Thomas Umstat Surnames of Spouses of Pew Holders: Bean Brooke Bull Carney DeWees Evans Hallman Hawksworth Hooper Koplin Lane McGee Muhlenberg Newberry Pawling Shannon Tyson Wade Wentz -- joe
