Bio and Links
Bio Photo My Paternal Grandmother was Ella FRAANKENFIELD born 1885 in Luzerne co., PA and my Grandfather was George A. LIVINGS born 1868 in Cumberland County, England, who arrived in America in 1870, with his parents George LIVINGS and Mary (KANE) Livings

My Paternal GG-Grandparents were Robert Boyce FRANKENFIELD (1850-1923) and Mary Jane VANDERMARK(1855-1920) of Luzerne co., PA

My Maternal Grandparents , who lived in Cambria co., PA were, Gilbert (David Gilbert) HOLLIS and Bessie BEERS Hollis.
I'm including my Grandfather's 2nd wife Dora Lillian (HOLLEN) McQuinn- Hollis, since our families overlap, and I'm related to some of the same HOLLEN families and she was the only Grandmother I knew.

My G-Grandparents were Samuel BEERSand Sarah E TROXELL, d/o Alexander TROXELL and Matilda Jane GATES, also of Cambria co., PA

My husband's Paternal Grandparents were Salomon SANCHEZ and Maria Sarah ARAGON of Anton Chico, Guadalupe co., New Mexico.

His maternal Grandparents were Leon Christian NELSONand Estella BARELA(Varela)of Anton Chico, Guadalupe co., New Mexico

I have been researching my genealogy since before 1994 and have made serveral attmepts to put it online, mainly Familytreemaker, but that seemed to take too much room on my computer, my computer crashed , etc., so I have now started over and have put my ancestry on Tribalpages.com, and I am attempting to put the ancestors that I have gravesites for ,on Findagrave.com

Paul C. Youngkin
Hi-I'm Paul's grandaughter, and I see that you posted on the gravesite picture that you are related. I would love to find out about your connection to the family, and so I can see where our family fits in, as well. Thanks--Vickie

Allie Belle Anderson
Hi. Can you tell me where the obituary for Allie Belle Anderson (# 32981580) came from and if it would be OK if I copied it? She's one of my great grandmothers and I'd like to include it with my research. Thanks.

Sophia Bender Transue #104871577
Actually, Sophia Bender Transue born 1767 was md. only to 1757 Abraham Transue, whose father 1731-1813 Abraham Transue was married #1 to Sophia HESS, & 2nd to Maria Magdalena LANG who are the parents of 1757 Abraham Transue. Because of these more than several [Johan] Abraham Transue's in Lehigh, Bucks & Northampton & the several Sophia's also there has been comingling of records that went viral on the internet and has chagrined me somewhat in my futile attempts to keep these ancestors in the correct family groups. /s/Gladys Boice Tolbert

Capt Charles Merryman
Hi, my husband is descended from Charles Merryman and I was wondering about your info on him. On ancestry there is a will for him that was probated on Jan 14, 1725. If that is correct he couldn't have died in Dec of 1725. Also you have that he was 40 when he died and yet from 1655 to 1725 is 70. Can you tell me about your sources for your information

Thanks

Harry Crawford Frankenfield
Hello Joan
.
I see you do not have a birth date for Harry. It is November 24, 1862..Easton, Northampton Co., PA.

He was the great-grandson of Peter and Mary Eichman (Peter being a Hessian soldier who did not return to Germany) Peter's son John married Christiana Eckert and Harry was their daughter Susanna and David Frankenfield's son.

The following link will take you to an article on his death.......
http://docs.lib.noaa.gov/rescue/mwr/057/mwr-057-06-0254b.pdf

I am a descendant of his grandfather's brother William's line. We have information on this family, and also information back to Germany for Peter's ancestors.

It is my understanding that he was instrumental in the formation of the current National Weather Service.

Memorial 32788902, Irma Goedecke Wunsche. Is she a ancestor of yours? I have her mother as a Dorothy Bertha Klein Goedecke. Am I wrong?

Joseph Bauman
Hello!
Hope all is well your way.
I saw that you created a memorial for Joseph Bauman who passed away in 1866 (memorial number 37518568). I was wondering if he is someone that you have researched? I believe he is a nephew of my ancestor, Marie Eve Baumann.
