Speaking of EBYs, has anyone traced EBYs back further, say to 1820, when
George
EBY married Dorothea Fritchey? Dorothea was born next door in Lebanon
county,
but was raised in the Lingelstown area of Dauphin County.

Janice;
I would look also into the history of the "Wobblies" who were active in
Dauphin about that time and were pretty rough people trying of organize
unions in the area. My grandfather was told to leave the county in no
uncertain terms. He was a "breaker boss" in a coal mine about then.
