<< i. I am hoping someone can advise me on how to research the following. I
am
looking for information concerning birth and christening records for my
maternal great grandmother, Emma S. Kemmerer. I know she was born in 1863 in
Pennsylvania, but not sure in which county. I believe she was christened in
1863 at St. Johns Lutheran Church near Berrysburg, Mifflin Township, Dauphin
County. Would these church records still exist, and if so, how do I request
them? Any suggestions on how to track down her birth records? Thank you in
advance for any help you can provide.
