Re: WIANT, George in Lancaster Co. PA
I have since received George WIANT's death certificate. It lists his parents as George WIANT and Margaret LENHART. I am unable to find anything on these people. A story passed on from a family member says that young George told his children that he was orphaned as a child. Does anyone have any information to share on these names? It still appears that they were all from the Lancaster, PA area.

WIANT, George of Lancaster Co. PA, Rochester NY
Hi.
I hope you are still out there... We are distant relatives! My grandfather was George Wiant of Rochester NY. His father was Samuel and I have hear of Uncle Herman who owned a grocery store in Lancaster. My grandfather moved from Lancaster to Rochester, NY. I have heard of the orphan story and that the orphanage had a fire that destroyed all records pertaining to our heritage.
Love to hear your stories.
Miss my Grandpa very much. He was a wonderful man.

And I hope you are still out there.
I am looking for George B. Wiant (b. 1867) who lived in PA. His sone Harry Irwin Wiant and grandson Lloyd Wiant lived in Ohio.
If this is this sound like the George Wiant in your family, I can provide you information regarding descendents through the present time.
Thanks
