Bill, My paternal grandmother was a GEISE. Her immigrant ancestor was George Adam GEISS (1725-1784) who arrived on the PEGGY 9/24/1753. He lived out his live in Berks Co. PA. I have a little on his parentage and I have 507 descendants and 256 spouses of descendants for him. I also have a very little information on Adam's brother, Phillip Jacob GEISS who arrived in America 9/25/1751. He moved from Berks Co. to Centre Co. PA, where he died and presumably is buried. Can you trace your ancestry back to either of these two brothers? Nelson R.
