Went to familysearch.org and there are 21 Grinches listed.

The e-mail addy you sent the e-mails from isn't receiving messages. Would you be willing to send me an e-mail that I can contact you.

Thanks for all that good info. You should have an e-mail by the time you read this. Thanks again.

So Sorry Kit...must have been your post...I apologize for the mistake...hmmm...could be there is a Grinch.

Hi! Been gone most of day, will check mail in a while :-)

Hi! Know you're looking for William but found this (though says Capt. not Col.?)...... Database: Revolutionary War Officers -------------------------------- Alphabetical List of Officers of the Continental Army - C - Fifteenth Virginia - page 178 - CROMWELL, Thomas (Md). 2d Lieutenant 4th Maryland, 15th January, 1777 1st Lieutenant, 20th May, 1777 Captain, 20th July, 1779 resigned 30th October, 1779.

I was over and looking at the 1880 census for Vt. I thought that I would look for my brick wall family members! How I love how the information was up down. They have my Grandfathers brothers put down as grandchildren to their own parents! It threw me at first as the one one child was had his grandfathers name. Good thing that I had my records out. I was wondering just where these people lived in 1880. I guess that someone could have a grandson at age 27! Just wanted to share with you all the research on the census! It made my day. LOL Watch out for those names that they did not go by in everyday life.

H-m-m-m wonder if there's such a surname as: 'Grinch' and if so -- are they related to the dude who tried to steal Christmas?

This is information that was recently sent to me about my uncle: RAYMOND FREDRICK STANGE Raymond F. Stange, Beaver Dam,[Dodge County]Wis. U.S.A. Navy [Aviation] Chief Metalsmith's Mate Dec 04,1945 Honolulu,Hawaai -- Missing in action -- Purple Heart - Navy 1945

Still working on John Jacob TRIER. I have records that state he was b 2 July 1838 in Buffalo, Erie, NY. After I thought this was established, I found on the 1880 census CD's put out by the LDS, that his parents were born in PA as was John Jacob TRIER & possibly any of his siblings. From the research which I have done..I feel this may have been Lancaster, PA. I guess there was a 1890 census done there. I'm especially interested in Windows & Veterans. I have looked through information & have found this *might* be found on Roll 81 through the LDS for Lancaster, PA. Any suggestions? This is above my head at this point.

Why close door? Was hoping that whoever started the Snoopy dancing in that late lamented chat would come forward and fess up. It was a well known thing by the time I came aboard, dadblameit.

Think this room needs a refresh button...gonna close the door Con...thought you were there...take care...whazoo

That you Mister : )

Found a good site for KENTUCKY Counties research...http://www.shawhan.com/counties.html...Formation Of Kentucky Counties....very helpful in locating what the first counties were...gives dates each county was formed and when Kentucky no longer was Virginia. Good Luck and Happy Hunting!

Did you see Snoopy in today's paper. Different twist to the dance for the 2nd day of spring!

Those are the family stories I'm talking about...the heartbreakers and the rib ticklers...sounds like you have some pretty special ones too. Including mine in all my research... After all the shuffling round with pages, think I'm on Vol. VII...and that's just my Father's side...kids are gonna get about 20 large ring binders each (maybe when I'm 90)...poor things...lol.

Well,don't know what the deal is -- I posted and it didn't show up -- so I changed to a different browser and there are 'two' of same post -- sorry about that

Just a quick note: I sent you an email this morning.

Glad you had a good laugh! This was a Gt Gt Grandfather that went back to England in his old age. He wanted to be buried next to his wife that died before he came here. He was found in a Workhouse in 1884 when his grandson had gone to England for awhile.I guess he was living on parish poor relief. To think that at one time he was a triving businessman in that town!

Only remember that name...had a STRANGE Family who lived down the street from me some years ago...Damascus, Montgomery Co., Maryland area.

Sorry...that would also be The Kentucky Pension Roll of 1835 - Kentucky Society Of The American Revolution.

Don't remember who had STRANGE...don't know if this one could be yours...Spencer Co., KY...John STRANGE - PVT. VA Militia - 1 Mar 1833 - $40 - age 75...have a good day all.

Hello friend...don't know if you should pass these parts again...but found this in The Kentucky Pension Roll of 1835 - KY Society Of The American Revolution - Revolutionary Soldiers and Pensioners Under Act of March 18, 1818 and Act of June 7, 1832 first date placed on rolls second date pension began age at time of application...kyr 179 txt. - Fayette Co., KY....James TRUE - Pvt. VA Militia 9 Aug 1833 $30 age 86....John TRUE - Oldham Co. KY - Pvt. VA Militia 21 Oct, 1833 $30 age 81...don't know if they are yours. Take care...whaz

I did find a headstone for Richard PARKER that indicated birth year is 1804.

oopsssss. Col Thomas CROMWELL was from MD and not MA.

guess I'll post my other brick wall also. William CROMWELL. 1850 census and later census records for his adult children list his place of birth as PA. He was born in 1814 and died after the 1850 census and before the 1860. His family is living in Frankstown, Huntingdon, PA in 1840 and in Alleghaney, Blair, PA in 1850. His widow and children (minus a few) are living in Clinton co PA in 1860. Family lore handed down verbaly to my grandmother indicated a connection to Col Thomas CROMWELL of MA. possibly a grandson???? Col Thomas moved to Huntingdon co PA after the AR and a town of Cromwell was established. Cromwell PA name changed sometime in the mid to late 1800's to Shirley.

Good Saturday morning to you all from an overcast and cool CA. Seeking information on the children of John PARKER and wife Charity (WEST). Have been unable to find a complete list with dates. John was Revolutionary Soldier from PA. Bought land in Harrison co OH after the war. I am trying to comfirm parentage for my Richard PARKER, born about 1804-8. Dates on census records vary. Richard did marry in Harrison county on 1 Jan 1835.

Still looking for info on George W. Parr date of death and burial place in Botetourt Va. about 1907-1908-and Burial place of Eliza Parr died 1891, and date of death and burial place of Marion George Parr abt 1870-1872 and of James W. Parr-after 1880. Any info appreciated and I will be happy to do research in Virginia for anyone!

y'all have a great day! TTYL

came back to mention that 1930 Boston MA Census also showed that William and Bertha SCHANDELMAYER owned the house and had their dau. & son-in-law renting there. I think their names were Clara & John McNUTT??? If you need the rest of that census page info on these people, just let me know. I can go back & jot it down for you.

bet you already know this LOL but... on other spelling SHANDELMAYER, there's 19 fam. tree databases w/ that name, includes family of George SHANDELMAYER and wife Regina BRODMANN!!! It's actually only 3 databases belonging to 2 people but they show MA and Germany. Just type SHANDELMAYER in surname field when you get to http://worldconnect.rootsweb.com ~ Might be 2 good contacts for you if you haven't seen/done yet :-) ... and I'll email all the rest I found on SHANDELMAYER spelling (which basically amounts to brother and sister George and Florence/or Flora SHANDELMAYER and Florence's husband, all from diff. databases). I think it odd that these 2 siblings show up (apparently ages 8 and 10) on a 1915 Albany NY Census but didn't come up with any other family??? Well, maybe you can figure out. Email on the way. - already sent the other one.

don't know if this interests you but there's 10 (current) phone/add. listings for SCHANDELMAYER which are in FL, GA, MA and ME ...... and there's one family tree on worldconnect that includes a SCHANDELMAYER from 16-1700's Germany (think it was a Cathrina??). Most of what I posted, you prob. have or have seen, but it's all I dug up on that spelling from Ancestry.com

Lastly, I will email list of 5 SCHANDELMAYER court/land/probate records from Middlesex County, MA Probate Index 1871-1909

Database: Florida Death Index, 1980-89 ----------------------------------- Name: Clifton L SCHANDELMAYER Certificate: 59712 Death Place: Broward Race: W Death Date: 22 Jul 1981 Birth Date: 03 Aug 1909

1930 Census for Boston, MA has SCHANDELMAYER, William (62) b. MA and his wife Bertha (57). Do you have census info on them yet?... happy to pass on if you need.
