I too look forward to Jim Hazard's work.  I grew up in Coulter Street Meeting and have Llewelyn relatives in Haveford Meeting, one of the latter being a founding Welsh imigran in the late 1600s.   Eleanor Helper From: Cheryl BANKS <wyckoft@comcast.net> To: quaker-roots@rootsweb.com Sent: Monday, August 20, 2012 2:32 PM Subject: Re: [Q-R] QUAKER-ROOTS Digest, Vol 7, Issue 104 Tom Hill, Your mentioning Jim Hazard's work in Philadelphia MM has opened up a huge interest for me: Would Catawissa in Northumberland County, PA, later to be located in Columbia County when it was broken off from Northumberland be a part of the Philadelphia MM? Can we contact Jim? I looked at the ones that he had on the website that you provided, and they were pretty much all around Philadelphia. I would not only be interested in Catawissa, but also most of Bucks County as well as any, if there are any Meetings in Lycoming County: Hepburn & Ellsworth Townships. Sincerely, Cheryl Banks Quaker Ancesters: Twining, Doane, Large & Lundy. Possibly Wagnor/Wagner and various other spellings. I only know of one Ancestor with this last name and she was a Friend after marrying Thomas Lundy, but I do not know if she was a birth-right Friend or not as I know nothing about her.
