BarrTo: SEVERS-L@rootsweb.com > Dear Mr Barr I have noted Frederich Sievers B-9 in John Merz book on Hessian Soldiers. it mentions Frederick Co Maryland and B-9 menas Brunswick Regiment von Barner (Chasseurs) and F-147 which is a reference to a book by Nancy Rice Kiddo "Prisoners of War in Frederick County Maryland "and Journal of the PA German Society, Birdsboro PA "der Reggebogge" vol 23/l989/2 If you have trouble with finding those I suggest sending John Merz $10 and a summary of your info with a querry. You might get the same by purchase of a book of his and adding some extra with your querry. Do you subscribe to Hesse-L or AMRevHessians-L. If not go to www.rootsweb.com and search for them and subscribe. Charles Severs
