OK, I'll bite. This is my very worst one:

Henry Frank b 2 Sep 1802 in Lancaster or maybe in Mt Joy Twp, my 2ggf,
son of Jacob Frank b 2 Feb 1776 also in Lancaster,

m Elizabeth ??, b 27 Oct 1806-1 Sep 1874. Children:

Henry Jr 1827-1849
Adelina Maria 1834-?
Uriah Elijah 1836-1861 (killed in the war)
William Harrison 1839-?
Rufus 1842-aft 1907
Penrose 1844-1914 (my ggf)
Harriet Rosetta 1847-??

So, what was Elizabeth's maiden name? I know her dates from a family
Bible which does not give her maiden name, nor does her tombstone, which
I have seen, nor does Henry's will, which I have. Henry, Elizabeth,
Henry Jr, and Uriah are all buried at Christ Lutheran Church in
Elizabethtown; all the above children after Henry Jr were baptised
there.

I think that Henry went somewhere *else* for a few years before ending
up in Elizabethtown, found Elizabeth ??, married her, and had Henry Jr,
but I cannot find them anywhere.
