    3. Hi, everybody! I am new on this list, but not new to genealogy. The following people are in my interest realm at the moment: *Jacob Dritt Bonham* of York County, son of *Samuel Cox Bonham* and *Margaret Dritt*. Jacob was b. 1820. *Disappeared after 1846*. Cannot find him in records after that. Samuel Cox Bonham married (1) Margaret Dritt (2) *Elizabeth Stehman Strickler*. Samuel Cox Bonham died in 1856 after a reception for James Buchanan. Samuel was an associate judge and active in politics in the area. He is supposed to be buried in Prospect Hill Cemetery, but I cannot find him. *Matilda G. Zook* of Lancaster County. Was with her mother and father, David and Mary Zook in 1850 and 1860 (Matilda used the surname Bonham int eh 1860 census but not the 1850 census) along with her son DWC Bonham. In the 1900 census, Matilda was now named Matilda Nissley and was 73 and head. DWC Bonham was 54...and son. Their son,* DeWitt Clinton Bonham, born 1846. * I am interested in finding out about Jacob D. and also DeWitt Clinton Bonham as far as marriage records, death records, or any other vital records are concerned. DWC Bonham was found in Chicago in 1892 on a voter's list, but was back in PA by 1900. Thanks a bunch! Sincerely, Brownie MacKie Bonham Researcher
