This message just came from another list to which I belong that deals with
the original 13 settlers of Germantown, PA. Notice the Robert Owens of
Frongoch, below.
Can anyone determine which Robert Owens this could be for sure????
I'm sending all of the entries as some of you may relate to others
mentioned. Please let the list know if you can add further informaiton to
any below. ALSO, if any of you have copies of wills, deeds, etc. from the
archives or courthouses, etc. of PA on our Welsh lines, please post them.
Thanks,
Emily
