I am related on my mother's side to Abraham Brandt who relocated from Strasburg, Mt. Joy area to Stoney Creek, next to Elk Lick Township in Somerset County PA. I have done extensive research on Abraham and his lineage and am able to retrace his parents (mother's name was not on any township lists; so we suppose she did not survive the journey) all the way back emigrating from Switzerland in 1718. I am willing to share what information I have if, in fact, Conrad and Abraham were related in any way. Several children of my line of Brand(t)/Brant went to Ohio in the early 1800s. I am presently looking at correspondence from Dodge(?) Minnnesota December 1809 so that is eveidence that some of the family went further westward. Abraham settled in Stony Creek and was part of the 1796 land assessment. He fathered nine children whose names I would be willing to share if anyone is interested. My line is Groff/Graeff/Grove/Graff, Hoover, Keller, Christner, Berkey, Moyer,Landis and Lichliter.
