Her name is Karen Krugman. She's wonderful and I've recieved absolutely fantastic DETAILED info on the Boomershine line. My ancestors were Henry B. Boomershine and Magdalena Christina "Mary" Swartzel. The spellings of both names were changed throughout history and she makes mention to just about all of them, from what I can tell. She also wrote a book about our ancestor called, "My Hessian Soldier". You may still purchase that, as well.
