There was no Allemengel Church per se.... The area of Berks County
around Albany and Lehigh County around Lynn Twp was referred to by the
German emmigrants as the Allemengal area. So, all churches (Lutheran)
in those areas were
thought of or referred to as the Allemengel Church. The most common
one that people think of when they say
Allemengel Church, however, is the Jerusalem Church, also known as the
Red Church because of the color it was.

Hi maybe someone could help me. My daughter's boyfriend is trying to get in
contact with his father's family from his second marriage or even get copies of
the military records. How would we go about to get military records for a
deceased person? His father's name is on the social security death index.
What they really want is to get a picture of his dad. He only had one picture
and when told lies he ripped it up. Now as an adult and with his father dying
when he was younger he wants a picture again.

Hi,
I would like to know who are my ancestor Catherine Papp's parents.
Catherine was born about 1770 in Berks County. Her marriage record in
Schwartzwald Reformed Church. She married Philip Spayd, and they lived in
Heidelberg Township.
There is a George Papp, and a Johannes Papp who served together in the
Alsace Township Company under Captain Heinrich Nach in 1784. Could she be
related to either George or Jaohannes?
Any info would be greatly appreciated.

Hello Doraine,
Robeson Twp. was created in 1729 when that area of Pennsylvania was part
of Lancaster Co. Then when Berks Co. was formed in 1752 from portions of
Philadelphia, Lancaster, and Chester Counties, Robeson Twp. passed from
Lancaster Co. into southern Berks Co.
You ask about a town named Robeson. There is record of a Robeson Station
with rail service in Robeson Twp., but I can find no evidence that there
was ever a town named Robeson in Pennsylvania.

Interested in anything on the Millard family from mid 1700's and back. I
found another family tree branch that points me to the Millard family. I
have a Joseph Harris (b. mid 1700's) whose father, Samuel (b. 1704)
married Elizabeth Millard (b. 1708). Joseph moved to Sunbury,
Northumberland County, PA. Any help greatly appreciated.

I am trying to understand where my Ancestor Jacob Kauffman (Bern Twp, may
have been located in during the revolutionary war. He lived about 5 miles
from Shartlesville, in upper Bern. From the period of 1779 to 1781, was
this considered Berks or Lancaster County.
There are Many records for Jacob, Christian, and Isaac Kauffman in the ARIAS
muster records, ect, and most of the muster records indicate Lancaster
County. I am trying to figure out if these are the same people.
