One of the witnesses is James Gregson "of Manchester". I am guessing, but is this John's older brother born approx 1780??

I think the reference you are making to the Furry Family History is from my website "Not Quite Back to Noah" as you cite the 'handwritten in book' precisely where I found them in the Xeroxed copy of the book I transcribed to my website. Of course you might have access to the original book I Xeroxed. I have been using this booklet as the foundation for all my family research and trying to figure out how John, the son of Johannes, and his family who were massacred in the "Catawissa Massacre" in 1782 are connected to the John that married Polly Spengler and had his family, including my direct ancestor Peter Forry. I have seen a marriage record of John and Maria 'Polly' Spengler from Tulpehocken which has Forry spelled as Forney, but I have also seen all the birth records of John and Polly from the Tulpehocken church. I have found the record of Jonas Furry, who did, in fact, join Shrauder's Rangers, but that is the only record I have found on him. Lawrence, son of John, son of John, son of Johannes, married a zingmeister or singmeister and had jonas, william and others. I have found those records. They moved early on to Ohio and Illinois. The Henry that you noted in one other of your blogs could not be the Henry of the John who was massacred because the massacre supposedly occurred in 1782 , according to the Battle I think, book of Northumberland and Columbia counties. He had to have been born prior to 1782 if he was kidnapped when his older brothers went to the grist mill in Sunbury. I have seen so much misinformation regarding this family as well. I will keep on digging though. I have wondered if , when Lawrence and his bother or son went to Canada to see Henry if they decided to stay there. I know there was a Mennonite community in Canada. Well, I'll just keep slogging forward! And hope I find the answers to my many, many questions regarding the Forry, Furry, Forry, Forher family. Nice blog, BTW. I have also Christiana Furry, daughter of Lawrence, born 1802, as married to a Chares Druckenmiler from Lehigh County, AnnAnonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09691862665292755046noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4395832538112153558.post-31644916355713870642022-03-16T08:34:05.780-07:002022-03-16T08:34:05.780-07:00Thank you Heather for this summary!Thank you Heather for this summary!Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16994154591043861119noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4395832538112153558.post-45547510747684900312022-02-19T14:30:20.416-08:002022-02-19T14:30:20.416-08:0019 Feb 2022...my dear Heather Truckenmiller, My na...19 Feb 2022...my dear Heather Truckenmiller, My name is Donna Wood Wetsel. My husband's line goes back to Johann Jacob Wetzel, and I've been working on the Wetzel lines for many years. One of them is Johanne Wetzel who married Catherine Truckenmiller. I randomly came upon your wonderful post today and was greatly impressed by the time and effort you have put in discovering your Truckenmiller ancestors. I can truly appreciate all the hard work you have done. I hope that some day our paths will cross.

I am the youngest child of a youngest child, so it appears I am skipping a generation when I say Nicholas was my 3rd great grandfather. My great grandfather, Prudence's child (Joseph Sr.) was illegitimate and was raised by Nicholas and Mary until their deaths when he was 8. He had an uncle who was just 1 year older than him and they were both raised by relatives, the Albistons, until Mr. Albiston became sick and one of the boys had to be given up, so John, Nicholas' son, was sent to an orphanage. Nicholas is actually buried in Mr. Albiston's grave in St. David's Church in Phila. It appears There was no money for his own grave.Janet Gregsonhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07811785485455889874noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4395832538112153558.post-46140600113138785992022-01-24T06:44:17.197-08:002022-01-24T06:44:17.197-08:00I just happened upon this and I am fascinated!

I strongly feel the John Michael Long/Lang Sr and Jr are part of my line. I was wondering if you had anymore information on John Micheal Long/Lang (baptized)Jr. ie. who he married, children? I am wondering if a child of his might have then had a child named Seth Long? <br />I can find where Seth had a Father that is referenced as Michael, but no other info..but it is interesting that Seth then had a child named John Michael Long...? So I was just wondering if any info on that one missing generation?

I'...Hello, from a distant Truckenmiller cousin. I've newly added this line to my 2 x's great grandmother, Sarah Sally Hill (Davis). All roads point to Jacob T. Hill and Mary Ann as Sarah's parents. Jacob T Hill is son of Susannah Truckenmiller and Daniel Hill. (Lycoming and Northumberland counties, PA.<br /> What for many years has stumped me about my Sarah Sally Hill is her parentage And Ethnicity. She died young, like her mother Mary Ann, not long after losing a child, named Osceola. Intuitively I've wondered about Sarah's ethnicity. Now I've located an 1850 census record which could be Sarah's mother, Mary Ann Hill in Milton, Northumberland, PA. She is listed as black. Ancestry dot com lists my dna composition to include 0.9% N.Africa (abt 200+ years ago a full blooded African ancestor.) <br />I know how hard it can be to track another person's (nutshell) lineage, and just thought I would put this out to you. <br />I enjoyed your blog very much!
