    3. >From: David Alban <davidvi@uslink.net> David, I thought you might be referring to my grandmother, Sarah L. Wynne, but she was married to Charles Martin Schultz, my father's parents. She was born June 12, 1856 in Montgomery County, probably Chestut Hill, Pa. and family moved to Roxborough Pa., Phila County. Interesting. Thanks for the info.
