I am looking for a Levan family that was originally from LeHigh County, PA and moved to upstate NY probably sometime in the early to middle 1800s.
Two siblings, William Levan (1816 - 1875) and Theresa Levan (12/20/1817 - 10/14/1900), did not move to NY and stayed in Northumberland County, PA. William Levan married Rebecca Fenstermacher and lived in Lewis Township, PA. His sister Theresa (AKA Tacy) Levan married Christian Greiner and lived in Turbotville, PA.
The oral tradition is that relatives of William & Tacy Levan were living in the Finger Lakes region of NY as late as 1940.
