I went through my files on the Hoovers and did not find Wm Harrison Hoover.
But my files are incomplete:
One main branch of the Hoover family came from the Antietam or
Conococheague (Washington Co Maryland), to Clermont Co OH in 1807. I do
not find Wm Harrison among his children/grandchildren.
HOWEVER, others of the Hoover family went to Jessamine
How interesting, Emmert--sounds just like the way we Catholics do it!

Thank you so much, Dennis and Ferne. My relative who has done research on
our West relatives thought that they had always been Methodist Episcopal.
She will also be pleased to have this further information. She traced the
Wests back to early 1600's in Virginia. Robert West was one of 100 children
sent to VA by the Virginia Company to be apprenticed to the colonists. In
recompense they would receive land, cattle, and corn at the completion of
their servitude. Now, I guess I should
Why not ask this museum to add a display with this theme and information.. What a
splendid opportunity to the share your wonderful heritage.

Hi Duke,
Are you interested in the SHANK surname? We have some in our DAGUE

My father's name is Dannie Brovont and I too would be interested in learning
all I can from his line.
His Father was Elmer Brovont, who lived in Rossville, Indiana and he
originally was married to Ida Skiles, who died when my father was 2 years of
age.

Hello Judy,
According to _The Eby Report_, v. ii, 1978, by Clyde Groff and George
Newman, David Davis Eby's children were John, David, Peter, Thomas, Joseph,
Henry William, Sarah Salome (my line) and another daughter (Anna???). I
understand that there are errors in _The Eby Report_, and the known errors
are addressed on "The Eby Family in North America" website, webmistress

reply from Emmert Bittinger;
Ceder and Stone, you are absolutely correct. The battlefield church is not
the Antietam Church, but the Mumma church. It is sometimes called the Antietam
Battlefield Church, which is an accurate designation, but one not derived from the
Brethren. Also, not well known on this board is the fact that the Mumma Church was
a preaching point and under the administration of the MANOR CONGREGATION, in which
territory it was located, and which meeting house is one of the "cla

The responses here could get interesting. One of the Elders at Peters Creek
in Salem VA was my ancestor Daniel Barnhart. He was very driven by
conflicting issues and this lead to his instructions to both never harm
anyone and also be a faithful servant. To this end two sons were drafted and
served. One as a guard at a prison camp and the other eventually was
captured and died in a union prison camp. The most intriguing true story
comes from their cousin Amos Peters. He also served and was captured. A
Hi Ferne,
A note to let you know that I got your information and will be sending payment. Thank you for you help with the Nearhoof and Spanogle information.
Would you also check to see if you have a Sarah Boyer that married a James McMonigal/McMunigal? I am interested in their marriage and/or the obit of each. In addition, I am trying to find the obit of Lydia (Roop) Boyer.
One other thing. Is the Gospel Messenger available for those doing genealogy research to review. If so what is the location(s)
Hi Gerry,
I live in Georgia, too -- north of Atlanta in the Lake Lanier Area. Did
you know that there is an old order German Baptist Brethren community
near the north Georgia mountains? Their work ethic and the quality of
their work is greatly admired in this area. Some of them worked on a
house that friends of mine were building and my friends were very pleased
with their work. Members of this Old German Baptist congregation also
own a German bakery between Helen and Cleveland, GA.

Respnse to your note below. The Pleasant View church is a small country
church, not having a church office or secretary. You would find no one at the
church most likely. If you go there it is along the road between Middletown and
Burkittsville, about a mile lnorth of Burkittsville.
It would be a better bet for you to call if you are in a hurry: 301-371-7656.
Mention my name!

I am searching for the parents of William OGG,born 21 Mar 1807 in
Somerset, PA and was still living in 1863 when he consented to his
daughter's marriage to Anton Goepel. He was married to Cynthia Mary
MOSSER who was born 15 Nov 1808. She was the daughter of Christian
MOSSER and Ann FIKE MOSSER. Their children were listed with them in the
1850 census, Selbysport, Allegheny Co.,MD, they were:
Mary,Matilda,Hiram,Sarah,Cynthia,Rachel,Juliann,Nancy and Catherine. In
1860 William OGG is listed in Allama
Louisa Ogg and William Ogg were both children of Joseph Ogg and Susan Bueghly.

Does anyone have anymore information on Bowman's or Caylor's lines?
My Gr. Grandfather, William Bowman, was married to Nancy Ann Caylor, born 3

born 6 Aug 1800 in Loudon Co., Va.; he died in May 1879 in Udell Twsp.

Hi,
Does anyone have anything on an Anna Eby born 30 Nov 1800 in (PA?) died 10
Feb 1877 in Stark Co., OH. She married Daniel Bowser born 20 Dec 1795 York
Co., PA, died 20 Sep 1881 in Stark Co., OH. I think she is the daughter of
David Davis Eby, who was in Stark Co., OH and according to one web site he
had an unnamed daughter born about 1796-7. She would fit nicely in his
family. Thanks. Yours, Eric Blocher
John,
My mother's Anointing Sacrament left a lasting impression on me also.
How have you and Ruby Ann been? Your weather looks hot and humid on the
weather maps. We have had several very hot days but last evening we went to
an outdoor dinner and it very chilly. The wind has been blowing all day and
it is comfortable today. The hills are turning brown and I know hot weather
is to follow.
I went to a travel faire today at the Lab and brought home lots of

For Friends in VA, picture of & books by Samuel M. Janney, especially his

For Brethren in VA, something about Elder John Klein/Kline; also John Kagy.
For Mennonites in VA, a book by Peter (?) Burkholder ca 1834 in German
includes many pages that are against slavery. Don't know if it's ever been
reissued, but you might get some good photocopies plus translation of some
of the pages. I think he was a Mennonite but am not sure -- this is just

I live in Eastern PA. Several years ago I went to the Penn Dutch Folk
Festival in Kutztown PA. They had several displays and demonstrations on
the PA Dutch Culture and I remember one display that mentioned a healing
ceremony called a Pow Wow. I know it struck me as strange at the time
because I had always associated that term with the Indians. Here this
would be an Amish custom, but perhaps it started as something that came
from Germany with the early Anabaptist groups and the term Pow Wow derived
