Hello Andrew,
At this point, I can't say for sure. If so your Magdalene would have to be the same generation as my Nathanial Yost whom I am still looking for. She could be a sister or cousin. However, my Yost's at this point were in Northampton, Lehigh, and Bucks Counties so it is hard to say. I will print your post and keep it with my "so far not related" inquiries. I have found more than once a great connection more than a year (in some cases) later. <G>

Good luck on your search,
Pat

Pat...are there any Blackwell's (or Maurer's) in your family. I ask
because, on October 25, 1812, my 4x great grandparents (David and Elizabeth
[Maurer] Blackwell) had a daughter, Margaret, baptized at the Trinity
Lutheran Church, Reading, PA. The God parents/sponsors were Samuel Fries
and Magdalena Jost (which could be an early spelling of Yost).

This baptism record appears in a compilation of the Trinity Church records
spanning 1751-1904, and was prepared by Jacqueline Nein and Gail H. Hesser
(1988). I found this at the Berks County Historical Society in Reading.

Please note, I don't have any more details on Jost/Yost. Moreover, I
haven't found David Blackwell's origins/parents, but I think I've identified
Elizabeth Maurer's parents and grandfather (I think they lived in Swatara,
then moved to Robeson Twp, Berks County).

Subject: [PAGENWEB] Deshler - Wycoff cousin "J. L."

Hello,
I'm a descendant of Captian (Johannes) David DESHLER and Maria
WUSTER/WISTER of Baden Germ. The other day a came across a web site by a
"J. L" who descends from David's Grandson, Peter (1743 - 1800). I'm a
descendant of Peter's brother, Col. David DESHLER. This person was also
related to an ancestor of my husband's, Peter Clausen WYCOFF. I have a lot
of information to share on both of these families and would really like to
connect with the auther of this web site.
I would, of course, by happy to share with anyone researching
DESHLER's (any spelling) from the Northampton Co, Lehigh Co. PA area or
their descendants who have moved to other areas.
My DESHLER lineage: Elizabeth Ann Deshler (w/o Daniel H. YOST) d/o
David Deshler (h/o Maria Catherine MERTZ) s/o George Deshler (h/o Susanna
DRIESBECH) s/o Col. David Deshler (above) h/o Susanna Elizabeth MULENBERG.
I have a lot of info on this family and would like a lot more. Please
contact me to share.

Thanks
Pat (Yost) Longley
