No it is to late, I have a copy of the will for Benjamin Foster which is
dated 1790 & in it, it names his children Benjamin, Edward, John Jackson, Leah &
his wife Nancy Foster.
Do anyone have information on Edward, Benjamin, John Jackson, or Leah
Foster. Their parents were Benjamin & Nancy Foster, they were born in the late
1700's.
Dianne,
May I have a look up in your David Jones book? Not knowing the boundaries of your offer allow me to give a few details and you give what you may.
Looking for info on a William and his brother, John YOUNG. Their Father was either John or William and their Mother was either Elizabeth or Mary. One unconfirmed rumor had it the Father was the mayor of Head of Elk (Elkton, MD) at one time. They later moved to New Cumberland, PA area before going to Lancaster and on to Mercer County, PA.
Thanks for

I have a William Jones who I cannot connect to ancestors -- at least not yet.
Based on census data, he was born about 1817-19 in Maryland. He came into
