Are any of these "Walter Eye" books still in print? I have the one for the Propst but that's it. What others family books does he have in print and how reliable are they. Thanks, Gene >>> [email protected] 01/26/03 05:30PM >>> Bill, I have the Rexrode book written by Walter Eye. He lists three children by the pioneer Johannes Zacharias Rexrode, (Feb. 22, 1725-1799) and his first wife Anna Marie Voegel, ( - died about 1760) Married Nov. 19, 1751 in Tulpehocken, Burke County, PA. Came to Virginia about 1760-1762. Then seven by his second wife Catherine _____. I am guess that Anna must of died in childbirth as he lists her death in 1760 and the birth of Johann George in 1760. Then there is another child listed as born in 1761, so he must of remarried very quickly. Johann George Rexrode (1760-about 1835) m. Margaret Elizabeth Hevener about 1780 - was in Pendleton County in Census of 1830, then to Highland County. Lived on headwaters of Black Thorn - records at St. Michaels Lutheran Church, Sugar Grove, WV., listed George as Haniorg - German for George ? I don't know if this information will help you at all, but might give you a place to seach for more records. If I can help you any more from this book let me know.

Early 1760s is a close as I can get. ==== WVPENDLE Mailing List ==== Genealogy without documentation is mythology!

On Walter Eye's books. The only one I am familiar with is the Simmons one that I was stupid enough to buy. It is worthless, don't waste any time on it. My whole family, beginning with the first one was wrong. It is the only book I ever bought that I threw away because it was so bad. Jean
