I think you might have been directing the question on when Poland was part of the German empire to me, but I didn't get my e-mail checked right away and John Newman gave you some good advice...Poland has a tortured History and it has been 20 years since I researched the Polish branch of my family but there are lots of good sources and every part of Poland is a History in itself as it has been divided up by it neighbors many times and you need to know where they lived in Poland and the year and then check th

County. Just checked Jan's site for you, and got 49 documents on her search
engine for Myers. Some are in Hunterdon (she has a lot of Hunterdon info), but the
majority that I peeked at are in the southwestern part of Warren,
ie.Phillipsburg, Asbury areas (once part of Hunterdon). Check her Beer's Atlas of Warren
County 1876. The maps are scanned to the site (there's a surname index), and
there are a number of Myers in it. Lots

G'day from Australia!
I have re-subscribed to this list after a couple of years' absence. I would
like to introduce one of my most stubborn brick wall ancestors:
Azariah Mathews
b. c1789 New Jersey
m. Fanny Sebold 1812 Hunterdon Co., NJ
res. 1840 Hopewell Twp., Mercer Co., NJ
res. 1850 Ewing Twp., Mercer Co., NJ (farmer)
inv. 1854 Hunterdon Co., NJ
Azariah and Fanny had six children, three of whom married into the Burroughs
family of Hopewell Twp., Mercer Co., NJ.
Fanny's family is well documented, but
I also have an Albert Yawger, whose son Charles H. Yawger married Kathryn E.
Roche (1912-1992) in 1931 in Somerville. This couple was divorced and
Kathryn E. Roche married (2) Edwin Z. Siegfried in 1937. All three lived in
or near Whitehouse Station in Readington Twp. This Charles H. Yawger might
be a grandson of the Charles H. Yawger you have as father of Albert. Kathryn
Roche had no children with either husband.

Hello Judy & list;
The only current genealogist that I know has done any first-hand research into the family of Thomas & Martha (Dunn) Runyan is Hazel Sheehan of Reading, PA. I will forward this to Hazel & perhaps she can steer you in the right direction.

Hi.
My ggg and gggrandfather's were named Joseph Thomas. I know that my
gggrandfather Joseph and his wife, Mary Catherine(Lomerson), lived in Lebanon,
Hunterdon Co. His father, I believe, was married to either Sarah or Rebecca Pence(my
notes aren't handy).
Unless, there is other information available, I don't know how this would

Hi all,
I know that most mail lists have a policy about sellers advertising their
auctions, but I find it really helpful when another list member spots an auction
relevant to our common interests and points it out. I frequently point out
auctions on the "Latta List." We have about 50 branches of our tree (that we
know of), and almost all branches have a representative on the list. A recent
example: There was an eBay auction for a Purple Heart that had belonged to an
"Alexander Latta." So I poste
I have a Runyan Hope, son of Adam Hope and Nancy (Ann) Lomerson, born about 1836. He married Ann E. Fish in 1859, and then Kitturah Thatcher in 1862. He waws born in eiether Tewksbury or Kingwood.
I also know that a Thomas Hope married a Winafred Runyan. Thomas Hope lived in Kingwood and later Hillsborough, Somerset County and Frenchtown. Not sure of the parents of Winafred, but may be Thomas Runyan?
Any connections here?

Also, as for surname alternative spellings... if the surname ends with "-ski" you should realize that the proper ending for a female is "-ska" and this seems to be done on the Ellis Island database on an irregular basis - going back and forth from "-ski" and "-ska".
Also, Alice's recent post reminded me of a techique I used to narrow down my search. probably in the later 1890s and then throughout, the ship manifest often asked what town the passenger had lived in. Since some of the surnames I was researc
Sorry I have nothing on Alice YAWGER. I do have a Albert S YAWGER, but all I have on him is born 9/4/1880 in Stanton, Hunterdon, NJ and died 9/10/1962 buried in Newell Cemetery in Stanton. Albert's parents were Charles H YAWGER and Mary Jane LOWE. Possible that this is Alice's parents or grandparents.
