Hi,
I am very interested in your surname "Keeler" as these are in our family
line. My gr gr gr grandfather Solomon Simmons and wife Rachel--1st daughter
Ora Simmons m. Luther Catlin of PA. I have a picture of Luther Catlin and
his son Juluis, grandson Harry, and gr grandson Charles Keeler. Also my gr
gr grandfather Solomon Simmons and wife Rachel also had a 2nd daughter who
m. George Keeler. This information we pick up at the Historical society
while visiting in CT. a while back. Both daughters were born around the
Litchfield, CT area in the late 1780's. Them my gr gr grgrandfather moved
into PA. I have not checked any further into the Keeler line. Is there a
possible connection with yours?
Carolyn
