Carol,
As the song goes, it's a small world after all. Christiana Ranck was my Great Great Great Great Great Great Grandmother. Here's how it goes down my line: from me: my dad, my grandmother, my great grandmother, my great great grandma Lydia (Startzer) Adamson, my great great great grandma Sarah (Fackler) Startzer, my great great great great grandfather Valentine Fackler, my great great great great great grandfather John George Fackler, and then Johann Wendell Fackler and Christiana (Ranck) Fackler. My information, though, has Valentine Fackler born in 1793 and has Elizabeth Simmons born in 1794 and having them being married in 1821. My Great Great Great Great Great Grandfather is absent from the list that you have. He was born February 27, 1767 in Earl Co., PA. My sources also have him and his wife Maria Miller being the parents of Valentine Fackler. Otherwise, the rest of the information that you have here, I don't have. Thank you. Strangely enough, my great great grandmother Lydia is also absent from the Startzer list that I have seen, though, I don't know why. In her family, there were a total of 22 siblings. Only 2 were half siblings. The oldest 2. The rest were Lydia's full siblings. Most not living past the age of 5. You can email me at [email protected]. I might need your email address first being as I have junk mail protection. Thanks.
