Dear List Members:
I have been doing research about Ephraim and Ruth (Higgins) CARLE's son
Joseph for better than three years. I recently came upon an Ancestral file
Joseph CARLE (AFN:MQ71-5V) that runs contrary to the facts I have located
about Joseph, son of Ephraim and Ruth.
I am writing about Joseph the SON of Ephraim and Ruth, not a grandson or
great grandson by that name. The last time I posted information, several
people made inquiries back about facts that I have associated with
grandchildren.
Were it not that most of the information in the ancestral file seemed
incorrect, I would leave well enough alone.
In the ancestral file, Joseph b. probably 15 yrs too late; no wife is
reported; one child is reported b. almost 50 years after Joseph's demise.
Further, while four children whose names I've not seen before are listed as
children, there is not a son "Dirick" reported. The file lists a ch. b. at NJ
in 1787, when Joseph and wife Maria are said to have been in Elizabeth Twp.,
Allegheny Co., PA by 1786.
Help me if you can please. Does anyone know any of the submitters. It would
be a bless to be able to see proof or be able to correct that file. --BJ
