I am searching for Daniel ROHRER b 1777 (one of 7 boys and two girls), m Anna MYER(s)/Meyer etc Jul 1 1806. Children Mary Ann b 1807, Amos, b 1808, CW b 1810, Daniel Jr., b 1812
Stephen D. b 1815 and James M. b 1818. All should have been born in Snyder Co, prev Union and Numb'ld I think.

Daniel Sr. died Mar 1, 1829. Daniel Jr. died Jun 21, 1828 in a fire at a papermill/pulpmill along with a Snyder son.

Our family document handed down said the fire took place in Lelind's Grove, however one of the Historical Societies suggested Selinsgrove. Would any one know anything about this family, and what grove I am also looking for?

I descend from James M. who married Louisa BONEWITZ and raised their family in Schuylkill Co, around Minersville, Pine Grove and Pottsville.

Aloha to all,
Lorna
