From Alan Buckingham's post with the 2 new maps, I have found a mystery.
In one of the properties in Buckingham twp, there is a listing of Margaret
Atkinson and Jos. Gilbert. I have two Margaret's in that area, but they were
both 8 yrs old, and neither married anyone names Gilbert. I am looking for
any information for either Margaret or Joseph.

Hello Listmembers,
I live out of state, and once wrote to ask if someone in the Bucks County
Recorder's office could check to see if my grandfather (Russell T. Allen) had
recorded his discharge papers from WWI there at the courthouse. Well, you know
how they can be sometimes. I was told quite simply that I would have to come
there in person to check. Not rude, but not very helpful either. I still
don't know for sure if there was a separate register for that sort of recording
or not. Is anyone
Thanks. I'm glad it's appreciated and useful to people. I have other Bucks
Co. maps like these that I will post in the near future. Perhaps you'll
have luck with one of them.

Hi Listers,
I have a birth and baptism certificate for one of my ancestors from 1856. It is in Old German print so it's hard for me to make it out. Best I can tell, he was born in 1855 and baptised in 1856. It appears that he was baptised by someone named "Miller" I can't make out the first two initials since the record was taped back together by my grandparents some years ago. I was wondering if there was a church leader, a reverand, a pastor, etc. with the last name of "Miller" around that time. I'
I have a name on my charts that I would love to connect more people to. The
name is Ruth Styer /Conrad/. (1892-) She is the daughter of Horace G
/Conrad/ (1860-) and Parmelia Henly /Thompson/ (1861-). I have names on her
father's side, but I have nothing more on her mother's. As you notice, I
also have no other dates either. Any help would be appreciated.

reason I ask is I'm finding it very hard to keep
the email address up-to-date.
If you feel the pages are important would someone
or several someones on the list be welling to do
a check on the emails to see if they are still

Hello to all,
Wondering if anyone has information or suggestions on Alexander Thompson, born about 1803 in Scotland. He was in Bucks County by at least 1840 (Morrisville). He married Louisa (unkown surname) before abt. 1826 when their daughter Eliza Ann (wife of Isaac Parsons) was born. Other known child is Catherine, b. in abt 1828 (wife of Henry Marion). I was able to last find Alexander in the 1860 census, and his wife Louisa in the 1880 census.
Anyone connected to this family? I would appreciate
I am trying to trace the descendants of Johann Georg Friedrich Friess.
They reportedly settled in Bucks and Mongtomery Counties.
Here's what I know so far:
Johann Georg and his wife Anna Elizabetha nee Hirsch were both born in
the area of Wolfstein, Germany. They
came to this country in 1754 and Georg is found on the passenger list of
the ship "Phoenix" on 10-1-1754 from Rotterdam.
German records show one child with the initial N. No other information.
We know that their other children were Jacob b.
I'm suddenly having a new problem in attempting to reply to messages on
these two lists.
When I use REPLY on either list, the messages are being addressed to

I manually added the the addresses to this message (and the last

I'm looking for any info on:

I have a few names (with information) posted there, and my address is
correct. I'm very glad the list exists and I find that even the posts
with outdated addresses are helpful if they include additional
information about the families. It's very well organized and easy to
search, so could serve very well as a query board. I didn't notice any
other Bucks County query site that was that well organized. Is there
one?
Most other genealogy sites also include outdated addresses, but it is

I am trying to decipher between what is correct and what is incorrect in my

Joseph Hough and Lydia Hurst is the parents of Jacob........does anyone know
of a will or any other documentation that proves this? I also heard of some

You might want to take a look into www.rootsweb.com and into the

critical for you, there are several that reference your Leidy couple.
The normal caution... Those who are good and nice enough to post these

others. Treat all information as clues to be independently confirmed from

Hi, I am looking for information on a Jacob Fuller not much is known of him
before 1850 and census information not very good. He said in 1850 he was born
1790 in PA and in 1860 said he was born 1792 in MD and don't know which is
correct. Possibly married twice as is shown in census records 1850 with wife 32
yeaqrs younger than him. He probably died between 1860 and 1870 in Rayne,
