Diane,contact me at my email address:[email protected] and I will give you my mailing address and phone # and maybe we can chat some evening.I am sorry you missed the Historical Society and the Church. SOme years ago I attended the Hummel Rent Service at the church when a Russell Hummel, the oldest relative of Frederick at that time, was paid a shilling for rent of the church grounds. IT was a service all in German, and I would have been the next recipient but for some reason they did not repeat that event. Did you know that there are over 250 Hummel's in that Hummelstown cemetery? Many were Revolutionary war participants and heros.
More later, thanks for keeping in touch. Jim Hummel
