I'm sorry Pam, I don't know about a family tree. I could not find your message of August 99. I'm looking for info on the Fries family for a friend of mine. The only information we have is that his grandfather came from Germany at about age 23 in 1898 and settled in Philadelphia and later bought a farm in Montgomery Co., PA. Still later he acquired a couple more farms and died there about 1941. So far I haven't been successful finding him on the census records. Philadelphia was a big city by 1900. I don't have access to the soundex.
