Hi there,
Anyone researching BITTNER in Lowhill Twp., Northampton Co.? The is an
article in "The Morning Call" today titled "Out of the ashes" which
describes the loss of several local barns to arsonists. One arsonist got

TREXLER. I am not sure if the present owners Robert and Dawn Costello are
descendants or n

I can somewhat trace the brothers Goodwin to Mt. Bethel about the 1790 time
period. I've seen their names on the Land Warrents page on the Northampton
web site and in the 1790 census. Can any one help me with further
information on these people?
Abraham, Richard, Benjamin and John. I am a desendent of Abraham. We
believe their father was Abraham Goodwin who applied for a warrent in Bucks
County in 1749.
I welcome any help I can get. Thank You
