Ickes/Frownfelter/Wetzel, Perry Co., PA

Several months ago I sent a request to The Perry Historians for genealogical research into
the lines of my ancestors GEORGE FROWNFELTER b. 1800 Maryland, bur. Elliotsburg,
Perry Co. PA who married ELIZABETH ICKES b. 1810. I also asked them to research
GEORGE WETZEL who had married SARAH KELL, and whose daughter MATILDA
ANN WETZEL married George and Elizabeth's son JACOB FROWNFELTER. Their
answer, received today, was that they could find nothing in their records about any of
them.

There were Frownfelter's (originally spelled Frauenfelder) in Maryland, but there was no
record of George. They have an extensive Ickes file, but Elizabeth was not included.
They sent a copy of a family group sheet which they received from a cousin of my mother
in 1980, and which lists George Wetzel's family. I happen to know that this cousin is very
elderly now, and no longer interested in genealogy, as I have been in contact with him.

I am turning to the Forum groups in the hope that one of those reading these messages is
also a descendant of the above. If so, please contact me. I would be very happy to share
whatever information I have. Barb
