Hey Nancy,
Are you offering to do look ups in your book? I have my immigrant that I
have found the baptismal records for his children but nothing on him other
than the ship passenger list.No wife's name even.My family has been working
on this line for 40 years!
Thanks,
Pati

Hi Nance:
The name of the book I am using is EMIGRANTS, REFUGEES AND PRISONERS, VOLUME
III by Richard Warren Davis. I contains 373 pp plus index (surnames only).
The names are mostly Mennonite/Anapabtist and Swiss/German. Most of them
were Lancaster counties and many of them later settled in Shenanodoah
County, VA.
Some of his bios are pretty extensive going into family history and includes
references to tax lists, wills, deeds, neighbors, etc.
The dates seem to run between the 1500-1800's. >>
