Yes, Terry, I talked with him about a month ago. .Then I snail mailed some information, but have had no reply.
However, it as clear to me that he is a decendant of the John E.& Rebecca
Kridler that are in the 1900 Census of
Fullerton, Nance Co.,NE. (Dwelling 299 ) living on Irving St. there.
A son , John Edward, age 3, is listed.., This boy is the father or grandfather of the John E. Kridler in
Montrose Co.
Also listed in that Census is Daniel
Kreidler , age 85 (b. 1815 in PA of German immigrants) living with John & Rebecca
I am sure Daniel is the younger brother of John
Kridler who married Lydia
Ransom in 1835.
There is so much material that I think you might be interested in seeing it for yourself..
Now in regard to your 2nd reply on the Samuel R.Kreidler & D.F. Hallett--- Please explain how you are related to Samuel Kriedler or is it the
Hallett line??
Marian
Kreidler Hallett was the sister of Samuel
Ransom Kreidler. Their parents were John & Lydia
Ransom Kreidler who went to Carroll Co. IL in about 1853. The were married in 1835 in Plymouth,
Luzerne Co.,PA. Lydia was the sister of my great-grandfather. I can tell you much about John & Lydia.
Am presently trying to track down the children & current descendants of these two Doctor/brothers-in-law.- -Sam'l
Kreidler & D.F. Hallett. Do you qualify, or can you point me in the right direction?
Here is some info that you may not have---.
