Comment by Michelle Gimelberg on May 29, 2014 at 8:41am: Hi Everyone, I'm trying to find the parents of Mary Monroe. She was the 2nd wife of Doctor Joseph Reynolds Bradford. Together they had four children: Mary Abbott Bradford (my 4th great grandmother), Levi Bradford, Daniel Bradford and Leonard Bradford.

I have Mary being born in Rhode Island but not sure where or what year. She is buried with her husband in the Card Cemetery in Pennsylvania. I have her death being 15 Feb 1842 not sure where. There is another Mary Monroe buried in Card Cemetery with her brother, mother and father but I don't believe they are the same woman.

Any help would be greatly appreciated.

I like to hear from their living family's.

Comment by Diana Beckner Belles on August 13, 2013 at 3:28pm: No, I don't know of any Shanaburgers. There is another Shanabarger line in SW PA/NW WV and another line that ended up in OH/IN. I'm in touch with researchers from the latter, but we haven't found the missing link yet.

Comment by Jim Avery on August 13, 2013 at 3:00pm: Diana - I saw your post on Shanabarger - There were some Shanaburger who married Wolfords in Adams Co. PA Any connection?

Comment by Diana Beckner Belles on August 13, 2013 at 2:53pm: I am researching Shanabarger which I think is a derivative of Schoenberger. Earliest name I have is Samuel b. c1800 who married Sophia Brant. They were in Fayette county in 1824. His father may be Wilhelm Schoenberger b c1780 who married Matilda Brannon. He may have been an immigrant.

have you seen this book already? Not sure it has photos of the mill but it does contain info on George Green and his home, the mill, etc. also Jesse Green and Abel Green.

Comment by Lisa A. (Thamm) Spegal on June 19, 2013 at 12:56pm: Posting these two articles I came across while researching for someone just in case someone here might be related:

Comment by Anita Wills on March 19, 2013 at 1:36pm: I am looking for a picture of a Mill that is located in Ridley Park (Delaware County), which was owned by one of my ancestors. I believe the Mill is on Ridley Creek and there are pictures of it, which are not very clear. It was owned by George Green, in the early 1800's, one of my direct ancestors. If anyone has a picture to share please email or link it to a message.
