Scott:Thanks for some very interesting information.I had heard that Christian was a carriage maker and that would give with your information re: patent on a buggy seat.The 1850 census info: is also great since Christian was 17 which coincides with his having been born in 1833.My problem is that I'm never quite sure where to go and you've given me some valuable information.One other Mellinger strain is Frank Mellinger the candy maker.When he died my Dad and his brothers received some inheritance money along with my cousins Louise (Mellinger) Walker, Anna (Mellinger) Dutil, Edna (Mellinger) Feilitz, and their brother Alfred Mellinger, Jr.
Thanks again for some valuable information.Now if only I could get a handle on the Murray's.
Nothing to do with pedigree, but from 1980-1988 I served as pastor at Christ United Methodist Church in Lancaster, then retired.In June I will be 84.
