Bio and Links
Bio Photo I live in Maryland but my heart and much of the family I am researching is in Pennsylvania. The majority of my family is of German origin, emigrating in the early to mid 1700s. On my father's side I have a particular interest in the following families: Stine/Stein, Rittenhouse, Smith, and Hauze. On my mother's side I am deeply vested in Virginia/West Virginia and the Hite and Manning families, as well as the Strouse family in Pennsylvania.

I have more detailed copies of photos uploaded to this site and welcome requests. If the memorial I have uploaded is not related to my family, I would be pleased to turn over ownership to a family member.

I do not mind if others use the photos I have posted for personal use, but do appreciate being credited for the photo. Simply reference that it is a photo posted on FAG by Ellen and give the date. Thank you.

Henry Good
I'm still working on this but am pretty sure I have untangled these two Henrys and know who both their fathers are. I'm waiting to publish it until everything is 100% confirmed.
Six Goods is a valuable work but it contains some mistakes and this Henry is one of the most garbled people in it.
I'm working on an article on these Goods which will probably be published in the October issue of Pennsylvania Mennonite Heritage magazine. Hang on and keep checking back.

RE: Christofel and Eva Stein
Ellen,

You are welcome! :D It is so nice when someone has the little piece that it is driving you crazy to not be able to find.

Yes, I am a Stein. Jacob Stein (1757), son of Johannes of Pinegrove is my 5 g-grandfather.

Hope you learned a lot at your conference!

Christofel and Eva Stein
Ellen,
Thanks for your work on the Steins. I have been researching them on and off for several years. I noticed that there is no last name for Christoph (or Christofel)Stein's wife Eva. It is Eva Stroh. (My records do not include the Maria that shows on her Find A Grave entry.)

"Stein, Johann Heinrich s. Christoph and Eva, born Stroh; b. Aug. 1, 1807,; bap. Aug 16, 1807. Sp. Eva Elisabeth Schmidt." p. 71
"Stein, David s. Christoph and Eva, born Stroh; b. Nov. 25, 1814; bap. Sept 30, 1816; Sp. John and Elisabeth Achi." p. 109
(from Bethel Moravian Church Record, Lebanon, Pennsylvania.Repository:LDS Family History Library
Salt Lake City, Utah LDS film #0383298 Item #4

I may have more info if you are interested.

RE: Stein at Walmer's
Are you related to Eisenhauer's of the Lebanon Co., PA area? I'm at a standstill on my husband's line. I'm back to George Eisenhauer (later changed to Eisenhour) b 1825 Dauphin Co., PA m Catherine Clemens at Jonestown, Leb. Co. I've accumulated a big file in the process, but can't come up with his parents.

Stein at Walmer's
In case you hadn't noticed, there are also several burials listed under STINE. Don't know if it's the same line or not, but always a good idea to check.

Catherine Engle
Hi Ellen, thank you for your email and I have removed the memorial and listed both John & Catherine at the Episcopal Cemetery. I have her death date at 1842 and on find a grave it is 1812. My information was given to me from a member of the Engle family. Thanks again...Pat

RE: Permission to use photo
Yes, you may use the photo for your personal use.
I'm glad my picture will be put to use. I'm curious--who is the picture you'd like to have?
