Hello everyone. New to this group. I've been studying family who settled  in Bradford, Luzerne, and Northampton counties in the 18th and early 19th century. Family names include Ennis, Decker, Sherman, Coolbaugh, Shoemaker.  A stubborn brick wall for me is Elizabeth Sherman (24 Aug 1804-7 Sep 1893) (my 3 x great grandmother). She married John Coolbaugh in 1818 and had six children. I've looked at the census data and everywhere else I could think, and cannot find any trace of her parents or family.  If she sounds familiar to anybody, please shout.

Hi,

I'm new to GenealogyWise and this group.  I am researching ancestors in Eastern PA, mostly Bucks Co and Philadelphia.  My surnames in this region are Conover, Etris, Hambleton, Holcombe, Houseworth, Payran/Pairan, Shaffer, Stackhouse, Swartz, Weaver.  Anyone else have surnames in common?

I am so new that I haven't even searched all these surnames on the site.  Am still trying to figure out  the ins and outs.

Peggy,

             I have a lot of Gehret and alternate spellings and I have one that moved to MD. My Christian Gehret moved from PA and died in MD so did some of his family....

I have 90 in my tree, mostly PA. They are not in my direct ancestry line but just

happen to be connected. If you want to look them over give me an e-mail and

I'll extract the list with dates and if it then looks worth while I'll be glad to dig a

bit deeper for you. e-mail me  LHartswick  at  Earthlink  dot  Net

I have a couple Gerhardt's in my tree that were in my tree. One  married to Frank Jacob Stoudt, Jennie S, begins my line with them. She was born 1879 and passed away in 1965. She was from Berks county.

Hello everyone,
I am new to this group.
Is there anyone who is also researching Gearharts, Garhearts in Pa., and Md.?
Any help would be appreciated.
Peggy
