Hi David,
Just noticed your second e-mail to me. I can't find a Samuel Lewis in my
file that married a Nancy Ann Coffman. I do have a Samuel B. Lewis (b.
1802 in Greenbrier Co., (W)VA) who married a Mary Weaver in Greenbrier
County in July 1821. This Samuel is the son of Hezekiah and Diana
(Oldner) Lewis.

Hi David,
No, I don't think that your Nancy Ann Coffman (b. 1857) connects to my
George W. Coffman (b. ca 1846, Harrison Co., (W)VA) and Nancy Baker (b. ca
1849) because they didn't marry until ca 1870. I've checked all of the
George Coffman's in my file, but can't find a connection for Nancy that
would fit with any of them. Sorry. Maybe someone on the COFFMAN list
will be able to help you.

I do have extended information on James Lacy Coffman who was my gggf and
have been in touch with Nancy Lewis, Shirley Yarick, Coma McDannell, and
more recently T. Lovell. As you can see from these large families that if
each of them who seemingly also had large families, it is no wonder we are
"coming out of the woodwork" so to speak! I think it's great to find so
many.
I apologize for this being so lengthy, but knew if I didn't go ahead and
do at least this much while I was at it I wouldn't get it done. Let me
hear from you if you think you fit into any of these. I can give you
souces.

At this stage I firmly believe the Kaufman/Coffmans who came to Lancaster
Co PA are all related. I am so far behind since I have the 'flu for a
couple of months, I'm not sure when I will be able to get my info together
and on-line. Sorry. The best bet is to get a copy of Charles Fahs
Kauffman's book if you can. That's the one I have started with on my
info.

married to Fraena Baer. They were from the York'Lancaster County in PA. Is
this the same Andrew to whom you are referring?
