We have talked alot and she had many break thrus with her line and I wanted to catch up on what she updated on Solomon family.
By chance would you her obit,death date, etc.
Peter would have been my 4th great uncle,thru Peter's older brother, JOhanne Zimmerman(1771-1849) Pine Grove.
This all makes sence to me.

Re: Aaron and Mary Huber

merrygold21044 — 2009-10-17 12:45:53Z

Hi,

Assuming you're looking for Mary who was born about 1837, there are a couple of Mary Snyders in Schuylkill Co in 1850 born reasonably close to then. There is a Mary Snyder in Pine Grove in 1860, but by then your Mary is already married to Aaron and shows up with children.

Sure is easier when the first name is something less popular, like Verdilla!

Good luck.

Re: Aaron and Mary Huber

auroura05 — 2009-10-16 15:15:47Z

Found out through research at the Pine Grove Historical Society that Mary's maiden name might be Snyder. Anyone out there know of a Mary Snyder? Thanks, Anita Huber

RE: Eliza A Stain

traceypotter70 — 2009-09-07 19:01:00Z

Could anyone help me please i have found some information in the Burkitt family tree on ancestry.com posted by mmurphy3138 but cannot seem to contact this person.I have been told this person belongs to PGHS so i am posting on here in hope someone can help me.In the Burkitt family tree a Eliza A Stain ,born 1886,Illinois is mentioned this seems to tally with my Eliza A Stain who was born in 1886 but unfortunately i am unsure of the area she was born in.The only information i have is that her parents and 2 brothers went out to america on the ship Batavia and landed in new york on 21st september 1881.Names of the parents and birth dates i will list below in case anyone can help.
John Thomas Stain born 1854
Emma Stain born 1856(on ships list 1861)
William Henry 1877
John Thomas jr 1879
They where all born in West Bromwich,Staffordshire,England and appear on the 1891 british census which meant that they returned from america but i cannot pinpoint there return to england so thats another problem.But on the 1891 british census Eliza A Stain is registered as being born in 1886 and she is a United States of America British Subject.
I know its quite a long request but any help,suggestions or advice would be gratefully received has i am near pulling my hair out over it as i can go no furter with my family tree without figuring this out.
Thanks in advance.

I have a Friedrich Stine who was born 28 Sept. 1749 in Hochstadt, Hessen-Hanau settled in Heidelberg Twp, Berks Co. and than Upper Paxton Twp, Dauphin Co. married Apollonia (Abigai)Lamm in Exeter Twp, Berks Co. 24 Feb. 1784 from this union came Johann Peter born 5 Oct 1784, Elizabeth born 13 Mar 1786, Rosina born 8 Feb 1791, Catherine born 22 April 1799. Johann Peter married Regina Coleman and this union produced Jonas Stein born abt 1812, Catharine born 13 June 1814, Frederick born 24 Jan 1816, Ellen born 1818, John born 27 Feb 1820, Daniel born 17 March, Elizabeth born 11 Jan 1824, Abigail born 17 Sept 1825, Peter L born 26, 1827, Anna Maria born 15 Nov 1835, Josiah born 8 Sept 1837 all children seem to have been born in Gratz, Lykens Twp, Dauphine Co. I know that Jonas Stein (Stine) appears in the 1880 census in Pottsville married to Lydia Mauier it would seem the Daniel mentioned in this post could also be the one I have listed above. It's Jonas who is my grt(3x's)grandfather and he was an engineer on the railroad working in Pottsville.

I can see on a satellite view a large cemetery in Pine Grove with the entrance at W. Wood and Walters St. Is this cemetery what is referred to as the Lutheran cemetery associated with St. John's? Many of my relatives are buried in St. John's Lutheran Cemetery, but I can find no listing for it or an index of names or any photos. Are there any volunteers in the PGHS who could take photos? I have the section and grave numbers.

PG Armory

suedberg — 2009-04-17 15:35:24Z

The Original Pinegrove Armory burnt down in 1907. By late 1908 a new brick building was built on the corner of Tulpehocken and Mill Streets where the Swatara Wood Working Company once stood. One hundred years ago... May 28,1909 ...the new buiding was dedicated. The Pinegrove Armory is still very active in this community.

A booklet was compiled from the original newspaper articles of the construction and dedication of this building. For further information on how to obtain this booklet, please contact Karen at kmgippy@comcast.net.

Hi community
This is my first time using the message board so apologies if I'm doing it wrong. Have just found some ancestors who emigrated from England to Philadelphia in 1886. I have found their passenger list so know they landed in Philadelphia in Nov 1886. I now want to try and locate them after that - don't know how I go about it. Are there census records for me to check in the same way as UK census? or are there other records which would be helpful?
Any advice anyone can give would be most helpful
thanks Karen (England)

My G. grandfather's name was A.J. Huntzinger who was born in 1833. They had five children. Is this the same Andrew Jackson Huntzinger you have?

Seeking information on Jeremiah, zach, and Conrad Lamerson that worked at the Pine Grove Furnace around 1788. Any info would be appreciated.
