Robert Bradbury Christine was born in Philadelphia, but I've lived in New Jersey for the past 30 years.

Surnames Robert is researching include: I understand that my descendants came from Germany, landed in Philadelphia, and from there moved north.
I have been trying to get information about them.
I understant that there were three brothers, Peter, Christian and Hans Jerg. Their last name was Christein or Christen, then later was changed to Christine.
I see that the article about Old Saucon Township mentions the Christines and am wondering if there are still descendants living in the area that would have information about the family.
I appreciate any help.
Bob Christine, Jr.

What did Robert think of this site? Very Good.

My brother sent the Old Saucon section to me just today and I could relate to many of the names mentioned. My husband found the rest of the site and we have been reading the surnames and have found one family that I grew up with in Hellertown--the Judds. I visit the Hellertown cemetery anytime that we get to PA which was just last month. My whole family of Oplingers and Kunsmans are there. Thanks for the memories!

If I were to change anything it would be to offer information in TEXT format because on the older computers, like I have, it takes forever to read formatted files. That being said, I know I will have to come back and spend some time going over all the so that I might get some ideas on how to layout ours [Hope you don't mind].

I don't mind at all Neal!! Glad you enjoyed it and I will definatly work on a text only format! Thanks for the input.

Jane E. Dodson from Raymore, MO, checked in on June 15, 2001.

Surnames Jane is researching include; From my mother's ancestors - BOEHM, MOORE, YEAGER, GEISSINGER, UEBEROTH, SLOYER, RUTH all back to Eastern, PA. STODDARD MacALLISTER, JORDON back to Allegeny and Beaver Co. PA

From my father's ancestors - TURNER, COLLINS, SPOOR, FENWICK, THOMPSON all back into England.

From my husband's ancestors - DODSON, MATHNEY, PITMAN, HAYS, BOONE, BRYAN, JETER, WHITE, LEFTWICH, BUFORD, LOGWOOD - most of these are back to VA. area before the Rev. War.

What did Jane think of this site? The article on Old Saucon was a wonderful find. Have only been in that area for one day in 1975 and met Earl Solliday at a filling station in Hellertown. He guided us to a cemetery and I found several of my MORE/MOORE ancestors and BOEHM graves. It was cold and rainy and I was out of film so no pictures. At that time I was just doing family history--later regreted I did not record findings the proper way. Now at 82 am working hard to do it right. I liked the military touch to your web site. My husband was career Navy and we were in Hawaii Dec '41. I know JETER RUTH and Philip BOEHM were in the Rev. War and many Al's we have records of beings from VA in the Rev war. I did not find the name RUTH in the Saucon acct. He was from Lower Saucon. Could ROTH and RUTH be like MOORE-MORE-MOHR and the SLOYER really changes as it goes back. Keep up the good work.
