Koerner, Kerner,Kanner, Korner Born 1818 in Aldenburg Germany On the Carroll County Md.1900 census it states he came to US in 1851, How much can I trust this date? I found his intention and Naturalization papers in York county PA ( Int. )1861 (Natz)1863 I gives no other information I sent to Baltimore and Philadelphia for ships list, they didn't find him I checked the Ships list books at the York Pa Heritage Trust , no luck found him and wife in York County PA census 1860., I have not found any information to cause me to believe he lived any other place then York County Pa and then Carroll County Md from the late 1970s till death. What else can I look, what else can I do to find this information ? I do not belong to Ancestry.com and I do not live near a library where I could order film so please don't send that information, I have that information I sure many of you have run into this problem and moved on to find what you need how and where were some of the other places did you find records and information?
