Beginning March 2nd, 2020 the Mailing Lists functionality on RootsWeb will be discontinued. Users will no longer be able to send outgoing emails or accept incoming emails.

Administrators may save the emails in their list prior to March 2nd. After that, mailing list archives will remain available and searchable on RootsWeb
This is my first query on this new list. I'll try to be brief. For 13
years I've been looking for the parents and siblings of Jacob Stansbury Rohr,
Sr. said to have been born in Frederick, Md. or Frederick Co. Oct.13,
1782--and moved to Harrisonburg, Va. in1798 where he established a big
Carriage building business. He married Deborah Travis Nov.4, 1803. They had
13 children born in Rockbridge, Va.
We know JSR 's father was John, he witnessed the marriage. I've heard--(no
reliable info ) that he had brothers Philip and Jacob and Johns name may
have been John Rudolph. Interesting note from Travis records was John was
listed as JSR's father married to a Cathering King October 23 1779. (this was
writtten on the records by hand) Other info says he was married to Catherine
Stansbury on October 23, 1779- same date-(the latter makes more sense as
there are more Stansbury's down the line. ) We know something is wrong with
the same date for 2 wives. John, the father I'm looking for was born Sept
29, 1760 and my info says Frederick Co. Md. Does anyone have census records
or material they could do lookups for me--and i'll be happy to pay a
reasonable amt.
I am not a polished genie like most of you sound--my 76 years does not make
me any smarter with the computer, but I keep on plugging to leave history
behind. Here is where I am stuck--with the parents of JSR and the parents of
those parents if possible. Thanks ahead if anyone has any clues or
suggestions--I just now got on the list and so happy that I may run into
something.

Peter,
I don't have the Cole photo, but I think we can exchange info on other
stuff. I have people in/near Newark, and have surname Curtis. Others in DE,
MD: Holten, Dale, Ellison, Eliason, more.
There is a website somewhere, with photos... a long shot, but worth looking
(indexed). I'll have to look for that URL.
If you would like to mail direct to me, maybe we can find something of
mutual interest, then come back to the list with findings.
I think we have briefly corresponded before, I'm the one with the lost McCue
wife.
Thanks & best wishes on photo.

For many years I have been trying to locate a photo of my mother's first
husband who was born in Cherry Hill (Cecil Co., MD.) in 1885 to James &
Mary (nee Drennen) Cole. I am searching for:

the Concordia Hill Lodge No. 67, F. and A. M. of Philadelphia in the
early and mid 1900s and an officer in the Knights of Pythias. A member of
the Methodist Church of Newark and a volunteer fireman. He died in
Newark, DE. in June 1940 while living with his sister Ida (Mrs.Wm. )
Morrison of 28 Choate St., Newark. Samuel Cole was a well-known employee
of the Curtis Paper Mill and he and my mother, Clara, lived at 48 No.
Chapel St., in 1918. Any help or suggestions you can offer would be much

Hi,
Couple of questions, first, does anyone know where I can find the 1810
thru 1840 actual census for Wor. Co. The second questions is more
difficult:
Looking for a Mary E. Pruitt of Wor. Co. Was looking thru the 1850
census and found the following:
Geo Pruitt 31
Susan 26
William Pruitt 52
Sally Pruitt 38
Robert Pruitt 30
Mary Pruitt 28
Benjamin Pruitt 48
Sinah 42
William Pruitt 25
Sarah Pruitt 21
Eliza Pruitt 30
Rebecca Pruitt 65
Thoms 22
My Mary Elizabeth Pruitt was bc 1824, so some of these are pretty close
in timeframes........does anyone have any information on these Pruitt
families. She is not listed as a dau of Elijah Pruitt, she also had a
non married sister name of Phyma, or Fannie........any help would be
appreciated, I have and can find nothing on her. She married Elijah
Brittigham 1848 in Wor Co. Mary E. and her sister are both buried in the
Goodwill Church Cemetery, Stockton area I think.
thanks,
Joanie

My cousin Paul Willing and I recorded a Catlin cemetery in August. It's on
the s/s Capitola road, about 1/4 mile east of the Nanticoke road. There's
a small, grass lane with a cable across it. Cemetery is back in the woods
about 50' from the edge of the plowed field, which is west of the grass lane.
I can't recall the names, but maybe Paul still has the listing? I just
checked Shari Handley's site and they aren't there yet.

Sue:
Thanks for you input. That John Lee Hanzsche was a descendant of John G.
Hanzsche and not related to me unless you go back to Saxony. That branch
didn't stay in Baltimore long before moving west to Ohio, Kentucky, Oklahoma
and Texas. I am in communication with them.
Re Thompson: I presume you have researched Irish and Scottish sources from
whence the Thompsons came.
Sincerely,
Craig

I am afraid I can't help in that area. My sister-in-law has taken this
branch of the Thompsons back as far as Monroe County, VA to 1811. We have
been unable to find the parents of Chapman Thompson. Too many Southern
courthouses were burned during the war. : )
I'm still looking at the "Hanzsche" name...there was a John HANZSCHE listed
on the SSDI, and he died in 1978. Of course, this would not be your great
grandfather, but possibly could be one of his descendants. He was issued a
SS number in Kentucky. He was born 27 March 1912.
Good luck, Craig.
Sue
Looking for any information or lookups for Martha Reed 1839-1926. Spouse
Elijah. In the Kent County, Maryland area. Most likely Chestertown. I have
checked the 1880 census and have found her daughter and son in law Benjamin
and Ida Price living in Edlesville,Md. I know they moved to New Castle Co,De.
around 1882 or so. Any one who can help???
Also have Annie Price B 1877 and Ella M B 1874
Thankyou
Sharon
Hi,
Am trying to find a Catlin cemetery. I have looked at all the
cemeteries in Somerset Co. and could find none, yet there was a big
Catlin family there.
Also need to know if anyone knows the parents of the following Catlin
girls:
Anne Catlin mar Peter Townsend July 30, 1825
Betsey Catlin mar Nathan Beauchamp April 1, 1811
Peggy Catlin mar Jacob Milbourn Jan 5, 1811
Julian Catlin mar Elijah Brittingham Sept 30, 1828
Susan Catlin mar Thomas Parks Aug 5, 1822
Could any of these girls be related and who are their parents, any help
would be greatly appreciated.
thanks,
Joanie
Sue:
While I am at it I would ask you about your Thomson name. My late wife was a
descendant of Frank L. Thomson of Philadelphia. I have been trying to find
his ancestors. If you have anything that would shed light on this family
please let me know.

Dear Sue:
Thank you so much for this lead which I will follow assiduously. I'm sure
this is my ancestor. You are right about another John Hanzsche but I believe
his initial was G. I have communicated with his descendants and have his
pedigree. I would really like to know if and how he relates to my John T. as
they both emigrated from Saxony. I will also check out the Barbara
connection. I had assumed that Barbara was a middle name. Thanks again!

Hello, Craig:
On my MARYLAND MARRIAGES CD, it does list a John T. Hanzsche who married
Anastasia Trace on 5 Jan 1841 in Baltimore County. This is a County Court
Record, and can also be found in the Family History Library at Salt Lake
City, Film # 0013693-0013694. Of course, the question is whether this is the
same John T. Hanzsche. There was another John Hanzsche living in Baltimore
at that time period, but I believe his middle initial was "D".
Margaret Barbara married Charlies Fisher in Washington County on 9 Feb 1841.
Perhaps Margaret is a sister to your mother?
Hope this is helpful to you.
Sue
Rebecca may have been a Gray or a Wilson at some point and she married
James Dillon!!!!! Late 1700,s or early 1800,s. Any help would bee
appreciated.
