| I have been doing extensive research on my family history for the past three years and have collected over 10,000 relatives. No, you don't have to read about all of them on this web site. I will only list my major lines below. STILTS/STELTZ: Originated in Germany and lived right on the border between York Co., PA and Baltimore Co., MD from the 1760's to about 1812. After that some of the family migrated to Richland Co., OH, and then one branch to Guernsey and Noble Cos., OH. Related Lines: HEDRICH, STONEBURNER, WILLIAMS, LONG, and GILDOW. LINN/LYNN: This line is connected to the prominent LYNN's of Allegany Co., MD and Fayette Co., PA. My family (John and Rebecca Linn) moved on to Noble Co., OH about 1858. Related Lines: SCARBOROUGH, VOORHIES (various spellings). BATES: Descendants of Edward BATE(S) of Weymouth, MA. My family moved to Cummington, MA, then to Geauga Co., OH and Allegan Co., MI. Related Lines: GILBERT (of CT), THOMAS, WHITMAN, WHITMARSH, LINCOLN, STANDISH, ALLEN, CHITTENDEN, WOODWORTH, etc. CRAGG: Family moved between Ontario, Canada and Lenawee Co., MI. Related Lines: LEISENRING. DREVLO: Family was ethnic German but lived in Russia, near Memel, East Prussia (now Klaipeda, Lithuania). They immigrated from Hamburg on February 12th, 1899 aboard the steamship "Phoenicia" and settled in Pittsburgh, PA. Related Lines: SCHEFFLAR. JAEGER/YEAGER: Family immigrated from Germany in 1880's and settled in Pittsburgh, PA area. Related Lines: SIEGMAN. BABCOCK: Descendants of James BABCOCK of Westerly, Rhode Island. My family moved to Columbia Co., NY and then to Brantford, Ontario, Canada and later to Chicago, IL. Related Lines: STANTON, GALLUP, WIGHT, WINKLEPLECK, and BAIR. If you feel we have any connections, please contact me, as I have many more names and more information on all these families. I am also working on a new homepage to include more information about these families and posted Gedcom's for some of these lines. |
