    1. [PAMONTGO-L] EMICH and other surnames in Montgomery Co., PA
    2. I have a copy of a Will dated 8th June 1827 for Conrad EMICH of Upper Dublin Twp., Montgomery Co., PA. In the Will, he mentions wife, Mary, and "the girl I now have living with me" as "Lany" who is under 21. His brother, Nicholas, is also mentioned "who lately resided near Rosdorf/Bosdorf" (Germany?)and his sister, Elizabeth, residing same place. Christopher DRESHER (Dresher later renounced his right to executorship) and John B. STERIGERE were his executors. Jacob REDIFER and Henry SELTZER were the witnesses. In a supplemental document, Frederick EMICH is paid for work in full; Dr. George L.? Thomas for medical attendance; Dr. John SHEARER. In documents of Commonwealth vs Conrad AMIGH/EMICH, William ENGART and Peter ENGART believe their lives are in danger and that Conrad will do them "bodily harm". This was in 1809. Other folks mentioned (perhaps bonded) were: William ENGART, Jr., Jesse DUNNIT, William McDOLE(McDowell?), and Major McDOLE. This is the Conrad EMICH who marries Mary ENGARD. If they had children, it is believed they were deceased years earlier than the Will. Conrad leaves money to Puff's Church when he dies in 1835. I'd love to hear from you if you have any knowledge to share about these people and those with whom they were associated. Gerre Engard Byrd
