I am interested in your post on Valentine Poffenberger, as a son of Georg. I have a notation that John, b 1729 to Georg, could be John Valentine. Your information substantiates that John who moved to Washington County, Maryland with his wife Mary, around 1760, could be that John Valentine. I would very much like to know how to verify that. Also do you have information about the two marriages of Georg. I know there has been much confusion about this family. Thanks for any light you can shed, here! My e-mail is rptgen@aol.com. I would very much appreciate your help. Ruth
