Hi Donna, Thank you for adding that to my research. Doesn't it absolutely amaze you how fast these people got around in the early and mid 1800's knowing that their only transportation was by covered wagon or riverboat and maybe in some directions, by train. I didn't have the first 2 children of William B. Roll & Matilda Roden. The first two children were born in Indiana, the 3rd in Kentucky, so they must have gone back to Kentucky to visit with William's family before moving west. Hardin Co., Ky. is just across the Ohio River from Harrison Co., Indiana. I spent hours in the Court House in Harrison Co., Indiana. This is where I found the Will of John Roll. The Will left all his possessions to William unless his daughter Christina was a widow at the time of his death. If she was, she would receive half. Their brother, Stephen Thomas Roll married with the consent of his father, John Roll. Christina married with the consent of her brother Stephen Thomas Roll. No other children were mentioned in the Will. If they went back to Kentucky to visit and a child was born there, who did they go to visit? I am told that there was a ferry crossing the Ohio River just below Harrison Co., Ind. into Ky. Later a bridge was built, I believe. Anyway, in 1832, Michael Roll & Christina Vought moved from Hardin Co., Ky. to Muhlenberg Co., Ky. Michael Roll & Christina Vought came through Virginia across the Cumberland Gap via the Wilderness Road into Hardin Co., Ky. Do you have the story of The Wilderness Road? I have it somewhere. It was a treacherous trail with Indian attacks and few pioneers made it through but by Michael Roll being an Indian Scout in the Packhorse Service, he was more capable of getting his family through. I did not have the information that Matilda (Roden) Roll married John Sears. She was listed in the 1870 Census with the 3 children. It looks like this Laura A. Roll, granddaughter of John Sears married Thomas Roll. However, I won't record it until I'm a little more sure of the fact. Or, what do you have? Thank you for adding more to my research. Betty has a lot of the Penn. Family and she said she didn't mind sending it to people if you would like a copy. If you want to wait a couple more weeks, I hope to have most of it into Family Tree Maker and I will send it to Betty, If I can do a Gedcom File. It looks like it will add a couple of hundred pages more to her files. Also, Hansel has offered everyone a copy of the N.J. pages. It is well worth the money to send to get a copy of that. The two families do come together. Here I have rambled on again. Sorry. Martha
