I recently acquired an old photo album from a sale near Sunbury, Northumberland County, Pa. It has both photo's and post cards from Washington, DC. and NJ. Some of the names that are in the album are: Betty Snyder, Oct. 21, 1938 "Ramey" Roush Ruth Snyder Mrs. I.M. Berger Virginia Fish Virginia and Eddie Fish "Chubby" Snyder Eugene Fish I would like to return this to someone who is researching this line. Please let me know and I will forward the album to you. I would prefer not to remove selected photo's from this album, if possible. Thanks Genealogy is not only the study of ones family but the sharing of information with others.

I've "rescued" an old letter and photograph both of which I believe belong to the TEN BROOK Family of Paris and Marshall, Illinois. The letter was written by Clara of Marshall, IL to her Cousin Nettie TEN BROOK of Paris, IL. The dates on the letter and envelope are both illegible but the enclosed photograph appears to have been taken in the 1860's and is of a young woman probably in her teens at the time. I have attempted to transcribe the letter, however, the handwriting is very difficult so excuse me in advance if my transcription isn't accurate: My Little Cousin: I received a little note from my little cousin this morning and hasten to write a scrach in return as you know it is customary with me to write scrawls. I am sorry to say Charlie can not go to P. this evening. Our hurry for the bed has subsided since Mary and Eysa have gone and Pa is using the mules so we have no way to send even if we were in a hurry. Whenever you going to Phil. I should think you would be very much business not men and company too. Do you think I never hear see one line from kin only what do you think about it? I have been looking forever with so much anxiety think my hair has turned quite grey. Pleas Dollie received an answer yet? Nettie so tiny and even some this on chances almost everyday. I should think you could come any day. Taken mile Men Bishop and birds come to the city of fashion, I want to see I invision so much. Come sooner. I have to go dinner time now and will stay up. Love and many kisses to Doll. Love to Miss Lillie. Be sure and come sooner if you have to take your furs in your hand and come. Clara Nettie – please excuse hard pencil for I have not a whit of ink in this house. Based on limited research I have found the family of Dr. John TEN BROOK & Jane C. TEN BROOK living in Paris, IL during the 1880 census including a daughter Dollie A. TEN BROOK JONES. John TEN BROOK was b. 1808 or 1809 in PA and his parents both b. in NJ. Further searching finds John TEN BROOK b. 1808 in Milton, PA to parents Andrew TEN BROOK (parents Johannes TEN BROECKE & Katie EMMONS) and Eleanor CORRY (parents Matthew CORRY + Ann BEATTY). It appears that the couple had 13 children including John. I'm wondering if Nettie TEN BROOK might have been another of John's daughters, or possibly there were other TEN BROOK Families in Paris, IL at that time and Nettie may have been a cousin to Dollie rather than a sister. Don't know if Clara's surname was also TEN BROOK or if she was a cousin related through her Mother's line instead. This is a mystery I'd like to solve so that this wonderful piece of TEN BROOK Family history can be returned to the care of family. If you are a member of this family or know someone who might be, please contact me. Thanks, Shelley

Hello As We in the USA celebrate Veterans Day I would like to say just a few words to all our veterans and fallen heroes on the Battlefields across the World. Thank you for all you do and have done for this country and for others. I have ancestors that served both Great Britain and the United States and I am very proud of my heritage. Here is a list of my ancestors that served. http://freepages.genealogy.rootsweb.com/~geyerseybold/folder/MilitaryService.html Thanks Dan Geyer -- Daniel J. Geÿer Esq.

So far I got a Johnathan MERTZ father of Barbara and Susanna MERTZ. Barbara born about 1802 married in 1820 to Jessee BASTIAN/BOSTIAN son of the well documented George Michael BASTIAN Jr and Susanna Bollender of Northumberland CO PA. Sister of Barbara BASTIAN is Susanna MERTZ married in 1823 to Peter SIMONTON. I would like to find more data on Johnathan and his wife and his family. If you have any thing could you please share it with me I was a BOSTIAN before being Mrs STOUT. Jeanie

Jonathan MERTZ Could some one who has a Meiser book please look for this man in the Sunbury Cemetery's. He might be in Penn's I would first look there his daughter is there. I would like to find any dates and data that it may say about him including his wifes name. Thank you Jeanie

please help me edit this. I am a bit confused. I was sent this data. Moved to Selingsgrove , in Union County (then Northumberland County) Was Selingsgrove Union county? Is it now Northumberland County? Thank you Jeanie

Jeanie, I am sure your source referred to Selinsgrove Pa., not "Selingsgrove." The area surrounding Selinsgrove Pa. was in Northumberland Co. from 1772 until 1813. This area came into Union Co. when Union Co. was taken off of Northumberland Co. in 1813. The area came into Snyder Co. when Snyder Co. was taken off of Union Co. in 1855, and it has been in Snyder Co. ever since. The PENNSYLVANIA LINE (1990), p. 272, locates Selinsgrove as a borough within Penn Twp., Snyder Co. Penn Twp. dates from 1758. If your source said simply "moved to Selinsgrove, in Union Co.," the move would have been between 1813 and 1855. Since your source states "Moved to Selinsgrove, in Union Co. (then Northumberland County)," your source must have been written between 1813 and 1855 and it likely intends to indicate that the "move" to Selinsgrove took place before 1813 while that area was still in Northumberland Co.

Can any one give me the history on these people. Looking for Barbara Mertz father and Family born about 1802 A Reuven Singer wrote John Jacob Martz known to have died in Augusta Twp, Northumberland Co, PA in 1803 and is buried in the Old Cemetery in Sunbury PA. In the census of 1800, Jacob would have been 59 On the other hand, I have a fairly comprehensive list of his children and the last male born was in 1777 (John Jacob Jr.). He would have been 23 in 1800.

Sorry. I meant to say "there is no other indexed Bastian..." Also, the subject line said 1900 census, but the email said 1920. I looked at 1920.
