A weblog for casual updates on my genealogy research. Surnames: Jahn, Joslin, Felten, Tibbitt, Rouse, Ludwig, Grant, Fisher, McDermond, Stickly, Moore, With, Hudson, Prickett, Hinchman, Harvey, Sheppard, Campbell, Hewitt
About Me; C. L. Jahn
I've taken up the role of family genealogist from my Aunt, Dorothy Grant, nee Jahn, and the late Sheppard Joslin.
Most of my family research deals with Delaware Valley or New Jersey ancestors, except the Tibbitt line (Maryland) and the Ludwigs (Maine).
My Immigrants
Abraham Joslin came to the Plymouth Colony in 1636, following his parents and family, who came over on the INCREASE in 1635. (8 generations)
Joseph Henry Ludwig came over in 1753 to found Waldoboro, Maine. (6 generations)
Henry Felten came over in 1767 with his family to settle in Philadelphia. (6 generations)
Martin Rouse came over from Ireland around 1838 with his parents. He started as a cooper, and died a very wealthy businessman in Jersey City. (5 generations)
Frederick Jahn emigrated to Philadelphia in 1858 at age 17 to become a baker. (4 generations)

Chris, I would hope that you check this at some time to know that I am trying to get in touch with you. You sent us a GEDCOM back March 1st 2007, and we are unable to enter it into Family Tree Maker. Is there some way we can do that? Also,I have found quite a lot of info re: Sophrona/Sophronia (Pease) Ludwig, Kaler that I thought you might like to have. I'd also like to share the material you sent in that letter with the Ludwig List, Royce Miller and Malcolm Jackson. Would that be okay with you? My e-mail address is: cynmc2@cox.net.
I just stumbled across your blog spot after looking at some pictures of Jahn Old Fashion Ice Cream. By any chance did anyone in your family paint? My father worked at Westbury Manor in the 70's and one of his customers named Mr. Jahn gave him an original oil painting. The painting still hangs in my house. If you are interested I'd be happy to send you a picture. My e-mail is hkmarshall@aol.com
Hi Christopher,
