Do we contact? >> Hi Don, I don't think we connect---the Wentz line I have followed is from the Dover Twp., York Co., area, beginning 1760's. The other various Wentz lines I've gathered info. on are mostly from Adams and York Co. areas. I recall seeing various records for Vance's and Wentz' in Lancaster Co. I also seem to remember that one of the desc. of Peter Wentz (of Worcester Twp., Montgomery Co.) being in Lancaster. It's very frustrating and difficult at times to try and decipher which were actually Vance's and those who are Wentz', with their name being written in various records as Vance. Best Wishes, Cathy
