Gerre,

It may be worthwhile to take a look in this book to see if the Ann and Henry listed are yours. If they lived in Upper Dublin, Montgomery Co, the location would be reasonable for attendence at St. Michael's; several of my ancestors lived in Montgomery Co. and were members of St. Michael's. The book is readily available in most Historical Society libraries and libraries with a good Pa Geneaology section. I know I've looked at it in the Germantown Historical Society as well as other libraries.

Regards,
Bob Lightcap
