I am trying to find the parents of a John Clauser b. Oct. 1, 1821, Daniel C. b. abt. 1830 & William b. abt. 1826. In the 1870 North Whitehall, Lehigh Co.census, Daniel C. has his mother, Hettie, living with him. She was born abt. 1803. I have been able to trace these families forward using the census records, but have had no luck with the 1840 census! Thanks for any help in advance.Please e-mail me at gsteele1@bigpond.net.au.
