Gail Holdeman
Gail lives in Minnesota. We are also the same age. Gail has
been working on the Wolf and Mohler lines. She has filled me in with
a few blanks. She has tried to help me identify some of my pictures.
She has an old living relative that was familiar with some of the family
and she downloaded the pictures that I sent to her. She had photos
made in hopes that her relative might recognize someone. It didn't
work out that way but it was a very nice gesture on her part.
Gail enjoys gardening
and flea markets. She works as a therapist and Coordinator of a Domestic
Abuse Program. Gail has three grandchildren whom she spends a lot
of time with. I haven't met her personally but I know that we could
be good friends because we also have many things in common.
Marie Gauron
I met Marie in October at her parents home in Lititz. We had a great
time talking about the things that we had found and the things that we
have in common. My mother and her father had a nice chat remembering
people they knew in common, even though they had never met before.
It brought back pleasant memories for both of them. Marie is working
on the Pfautz and Mease families. Her Mease line married into the
Pfautz side of the family.
Marie has done extensive
work on the Mease line and she is searching for other lines as well.
Marie also lives out of state but I feel confident that we will get together
again to swap information because her parents live in Lititz and that is
in my area of the country.
We keep in contact
with each other and hopefully working together, we can find out many new
relatives.
Karla Staudt Karla
notified me that she saw one of my posts about the Sensenig family.
Her mother-in-law was a Sensenig and she thought that my query pertaining
to the names and the area sounded familiar. Karla had a copy of the
"Sensineys" of America, compiled by Barton Sensenig. She copied the
pages pertaining
to my family and offered to hand deliver
them. Her family was planning a trip to the Berks county area to
visit the Sensenig's over the Labor Day Weekend.
It was because of
Karla that I have even the slightest idea where my Sensenig family is from.
Betty Carson
I met Betty at the Ephrata Historical Society. We discussed the Mohler
family. I had my Mohler genealogy done, but Betty led me to the probable
conclusion that Ludwig was not my ancestor but that Heinrich is.
I enjoyed the talk with Betty. She has done a tremendous amount of
work on the land records and deeds of the Mohler families. Her facts
are well documented and she is quite an authority on the Mohler's.
Don't forget to
stop by Betty's Home Page on the Mohler Family. It is great.
