Henry Comfort [1818 - 1867] was married to Sarah A. Krebs [1819-1884]. They had a farm in Perry Twp, Snyder Co., Pa. bounded by the Mahantango Creek (which drains into the Susquehanna River), just North of Liverpool, Pa. (North of Harrisburg). They were buried in the cemetery of St. Paul's Union Church (later an EUB). Both their stones are inscribed in German (Fractur style), so one presumes they were of German descent, as were the Newmans and Rauchs from whom I am descended.Henry was one of my GGG grandfathers on my mother's side. I am interested in tracing back further, but all the information I have is from "Aunt Martha" who's mother was a Comfort, and the on-line souces so far have not yielded new information. Any new information would be appreciated.
