Wondering if we have a connection or if you can help me. You made reference to two Keefer families in Columbia County, PA. I am looking for the parents and family of my greatgrandfather GEORGE BENJAMIN KEEFER. Below is what information I have on his parents, brother and sisters. I do have additional information on Descendants. Most of this information was taken from Obituaries in Suprise, NE. As far as I know they we from Benton, Columbia County, PA. which as far as I can determine from a map is close to Orangeville and in the same county.
Any help you could give me would be greatly appreciated.
