Hello! I have Hermann ancestors who lived in Transylvania (present-day Romania). Are you related to them? I'm trying to write a stronger family history for my dad's side of the family.
I have a GG-grandmother, Sarah Malinda (Melinda) Kreighbaum who married Simon Freiderick Sholley in Ohio. They had six children, John O., William A., Guy E., Herbert R., Susie A., Martha Irene, and Jay W.. They lived in Copley Township, Summit, Ohio in 1910. I was wondering if Sarah Malinda (Melinda) Kreighbaum shows up anywhere in your line?
Hi Andrea
my Faust family is all in PA as far as I know. I'm not sure if anyone left the state or came from another state as I have very little on them. All I know if the family I have in Berks county came from Schuylkill county. I haven't done much on them as I have been finding leads on other branches, but I find something that leads me to Ohio and/or Indiana, I'll let you know. (-: Happy Hunting!
Hello, my Faust's came from Ohio, but I don't even know what town. There was Rose Faust, daughter of John and Elizabeth Eiler. If you know anything about these people, I'd love to hear more (I've sort of left my genealogy to the side for a few years now...). Ken
Hi Andrea, I may be able to help you a little.
I have Foust's listed in both Ohio and Indiana. I list Highland County, OH, and Huntington County, IN. I am not sure where those are compared to the counties you were asking about.
Another thing that I noticed, you have the name 'Shafer' under the names you are researching. I have the name 'Shaffer' circa 1800 from Maryland who married a Foust on my side of the family.
If this is helpful to you, please let me know. I look forward to your reply!
