I'm a 4th great grandson of Michael LAURY. I don't have any vital information on him except that he married Barbara REINTHALER. Their son George married Ester HARTMAN. Ester was baptized in 1786 at the Egypt Reformed Church, Lehigh, Pennsylvania. While looking through the church records I noticed there were some LAURY baptisms. I did a little digging and found that this is the area that Michael and Barbara GOTTSCHALK LAURY settled. I had heard of this couple before, but they only had three children, Barbara, Gotfried and John. I recently found a new entry in WorldConnect that lists them as having ten children. one of them named Michael. I'm wondering if this Michael and my ggggfather are one in the same. WorldConnect also shows they had a daughter named Catherine who married a HARTMAN (No first name listed). I feel there may be a connection between the Laurys and Hartmans given this and the fact that Ester HARTMAN married George LAURY.

If anyone has any information I'd be eternally grateful, as I and others have been at a brick wall with Michael LAURY. Also, I have a lot of information Michael's descendants to share.
