Hester had a child named Daniel(probably b.1769-1771) from whom my husband's line descended. We recently did DNA testing with another Wolff branch and it is conclusive that although Daniel went by the name of Wolff, he was not blood related to them. The Wolffs went from PA to Frederick Co, MD and then moved to Bethania NC in 1769. Hester died in NC sometime before May 1808. Lorenz remarried in May 1808. His will states that Daniel was Hester's son. Do you have anyone in your family tree that could be my Daniel or Hester? I have searched marriage records in both VA and MD but can't find a marriage for Hester and Lorenz. Important Note: The author of this message may not be subscribed to this list.
