Hi, SCV = Shenandoah County, VA This info is from the book "From The Rhine To The Shenandoah" Vol. III, by Daniel W. Bly. You should read this book as there is lots (and mean lots) of information about the Coffelts. Here is the connection: 1. George Kauffeldt 1620 - after 1660 Germany (maybe) 2. Elias Kauffeldt 1655/56 - 1728 Germany 3. Johann Christopher Kauffelt abt 1692 Germany - abt 1754 SCV (some say York Co. PA ???) 4. Peter Kauffeldt abt 1732 - 1767, married Catherine Haller. 1. George Kauffeldt 2. Elias Kauffeldt (same as above) 3. Johnn Nicholas Kauffeldt abt 1690 Germany - after 1754 York County, PA 4. George Jacob Kauffelt 1724 Germany - 1787 SCV 5. George Kauffeldt 1776 SCV- 1847 SCV married 1803 Ann Elizabeth Druck. If you want a list of all of the children just let me know.

Carole, Thanks for sharing the info on the Coffelts found in "From The Rhine to the Shenandoah". Now I have found another book that I want to read. The more I learn the more I discover that I have much more to learn. Although I knew the Surber Families were German Speaking Swiss, I had not seen a connection to the book "From the Rhine to the Shenandoah", so now I want to read it.
