    3. I have another name to check out with the Washington County site members. That is the name of Frantz. James Scott, my great grandfather, married Amy or Emma Frantz, daughter of Isaac Frantz. We understand that the German pronunciation of Naomi can be pronounced Naeima, then Emme, Emma, Amy.so possibly her name could have been Naomi. There is mention of Isaac Frantz where there was a Mount Pleasant. I am not sure what Mount Pleasant this was: "McBride and Isaac Frantz traded lands on or before October 15, 1823. McBride conveyed his 205 acres of "Mount Pleasant" to Frantz for the latter's 118 acres, on which he then resided , and a carding-machine. Frantz conveyed the 205 acres to which he had thus acquired title to Jacob Frantz, December 23, 1823, for $1, 862.76, about two-thirds of which consisted of a certain writing obligatory which Jacob held against Isaac." Isaac had a son named Jacob. Not sure if this could have been the Jacob. In his will, he leaves property to son Jacob and daughter ? , Elizabeth, Susan, Peter, Lady, Abraham, Mary, Catherine, Margaret, Emma, and ?.Will witnessed by John Graham and George Burger, before Wm Miller, Register. Dated June 29, 1857.) Would anyone have heard of these Frantz names in the Monvalley area? Frantz perhaps at one time was "la Frantz" [email protected]
