Hi Nanette, Sorry to be so long in answering. The Samuel Landis that I am searching for was born in 1798, was married to a Jane Baxter in 1822 in the Christ Lutheran Church, he had at least three chldren, Emanuel, born August 8, 1827, Rebecca and Louisa Ann. All three children baptized in Christ Lutheran. Emanuel, my great great grandfather, enlisted in the military for service in the Mexican War from Newark, Licking, County, Ohio at aound 18 years of age. He remained in Ohio after the Mexican War except fo his service during the Civil War and is buried at the Dayton National Cemetery. I have not been able to find anything on his parents or sisters but am thinking that his father, Samuel Landis, may have been the same Samuel Landis listed on the 1870 Mortality Schedule in York County as the age would have been correct. Emanuel stated in his military records that he was born at Little York, York County PA, so the family must have been living in York Twp in 1827. Karen
