Yup. I accidentally discovered on Broderbund CD19 or EGLE's Notes & Queries of Pennsylvania, that Nicholas Carper was spelled on several entries, Nicolaus Coerper. Then I obtained bits of data, hopefully more later... Marriage Record of Rev. John Casper Stoever 1730-1799 1734 Dec. 3 Nicolaus Coerper and Margaretha Marstaller, Skippach. Baptismal Record of Rev. John Casper Stoever 1730-1799 Cunradt Walther, (Coventry.) Walther -- Margaretha Barbara, b. Jan. [baptized] Feb. 18, 1739. Sponsors, Nicholaus Coerper and wife Margaretha. Can anyone suggest what the second entry means, exactly? Was Cunradt Walther a friend? Margaretha's brother? What? Thanks, Vince

You cross in as close as Lottie Craig Ferrel and Howard Burns Carper? Some of the other names are familiar, and some are not. The Carper/ McCartney couple are a definite pair. I have a photo of her. Or two. Not great. Maybe even the house. Do you have any photos of any of these? I also have photos of Howard Burns Carper Sr and Lottie Craig Ferrel. Vince Can you handle GEDCOM?

Where do I start, Steve? I would love to send you a GEDCOM file. I suspect you know how to handle that. But here is a rough sketch, and if you wish, I am happy to snail mail you what I have. Just remind me what I need to do, since I suffer from an unusually poor memory. Seriously. Vince Niklas Carper, b. abt. 1708, m. Margaretha Marsteller. Issue: (main line--I *am* interested in slight diversions from main) Nicholas m. Elizabeth Shrider (could use dates for Elizabeth) Jacob m. Sarah Raymer (no known dates for Sarah) Allen M. Carper m. Mary M. Carper (would love to know what M stands 4) Charles Edward Carper m. Elizabeth Ann McCartney Howard Burns Carper Sr. m. Lottie Craig Ferrel Rachel Adeline Carper I hope this is of some value to you, and that maybe you have a touch of info for me. Again.
