> from THE HISTORY OF CHESTER COUNTY PENNSYLVANIA, by Futhey and Cope;

Although the History of Chester County is one of the most use resources
for Chester County research, it sometimes leaves questions.

Here are examples of what can occur when transcribing old print.

Records they printed for St. Vincent Church

John Laney list as Elder is really John Taney
Consistory 1881 Oliver Laney is really Oliver Taney
Trustee's Abr'm Laney is really Abraham Taney.

Happy surname hunting................
