Hello to All: Myself and Bruce Gross descend from Frederick Gross Sr., said to have been born 1765 to 1768 in Maryland. We have researched for years and have never found information in regard to a Frederck Gross born in 1765. However, we keep finding information in regard to John Geer being the father of Frederick Gross born in 1765. We have found no documentation for that claim. We did find a Fridrich Gross born 1768 at Frederick, Maryland, son of Jacob Gross and Elizabeth Glantz on the Evangelical Lutheran Church, Grace Lutheran (Rocky Hill) church, originally known as St Peters of Woodsboro, Maryland, Fredrick County. This has been a brick wall which we have not been able to get through. Any information would be greatly appreciated. Thank you, Clifford Tyler at: [email protected] </HTML>
