Hi, I'm new on the list and am looking for several family lines from this area. Adam WELKER married Nancy FLETCHER around 1793 in in Surry County and Sarah Fletcher around 1802 in Rowan Co. He is supposed to be German (which means that spelling variations can include any of the following: Wälker, Walker, Welcker, Welcher, and I've even seen Whicker a few times). Conrad DICK died in Wilkes County in 1774, leaving at least one daughter, Elizabether, who married Peter ELLER. From secondary/tertiary? literature, he is supposed to be Swiss, but again, I would like to find some documentation. The DICKs and the ELLERs both came from Frederick, Maryland previous to this, but I'm hoping to find out something the death records. Can someone point me in the right direction? Are there German church records available in Rowan County? (Lutheran and/or Reformed). I am familiar with German records from other lines, but I'm stuck on these people. Thanks in advance for any help/suggestions you can offer!
