I have approximately 2000 or more obituaries, weddings, funerals, that I have been typing into files of people who first resided in the Carroll County area. Most of these obituaries were taken from The Evening Sun in Hanover, PA and others were taken from the Balitmore Sun. These date back to the early 1900's. They were clipped out of the newspapers by my great-grandmother and grandmother. These were friends of the family as well as relatives. Some of the surnames include Airing, Arter, Bachman, Baughman, Bair, Bechtel, Baker, Bankert, Baumgardner, Berwager, Bollinger, Bowman, Brillhart,Brown, Brumgard, Copenheaver (spelled different ways), Crouse, Crowl, Dubs, Feeser, Flickinger, Fuhrman, Frock, Gobrecht, Houck, Yingling, Lawyer, Leppo, Masenheimer,Sterner, Tasto,Weaver, Wildasin, Zepp. At present, I have put into files at least 570 files.

Some of these have written in dates, but I'm not sure if they are all correct. Please contact me if any of these surnames are included in your family.

I have both Zepps and Yinglings in my family, any information would be appreciated.

Any Mielke's or Crispens'? Thanks.

George, Do you know of a Jim Revell or Ruth Ann Revell Scott in Salisbury? Thanks. Jean

Wow! Sounds like you have a goldmine of genealogy information in your hands. I've been researching my husband's family history for about three years. They lived in Carroll County, MD, and Adams and York Counties in PA. My husband grew up in Hanover, York Co., PA. His last name is FEESER, one of the surnames that you listed. Other names that you've given that tie into his family are: BANKERT, BECHTEL, BRUMGARD, CROWL, and STERNER. What first names do you have for the above listed surnames? I'll gladly reimburse you for copies and mailing costs for any information that you may have on individuals that relate to my husband.

Sincerely grateful,
Janet

Sorry, I do not know them.

Hi Angela, what names of BROWNs do you have? My BROWN family is from around the Carroll, Howard and Montgomery Cos. areas. They married into the LEAKINS, PHEBUS, PHEOBUS, PHOEBUS, PRIEBE families. Would they also be in any of your obit collections? If so, could you tell me their given names, if it's not too much of a job. Let me know if it is. Thank you very much!

Angela,
Would you e-mail me, your FLICKINGER lineage is incorrect.
Thank you.

Angela,

I'm interested in any information that you may be willing to share regarding the families of Brilhart and Masenheimer. Also, if you happen to run across any reference to the Gettier family.

thanks
