>> Another family from Hunterdon who went to NY's Finger lakes abt 1818
>> were the family of Philip LEFLER/Leffler b. 1782 and Mary DILTS b. 1785.
>> Their family married BIRD/SWICK/COVERT/GOULD/VANNORSTAND in Seneca
>> County,NY. DNA testing showed 12 for 12 between this Lefler line and the
>> line(my line) of Christopher Lefler b. 1791(Oxford) s/o John and Mary
>> Lefler of Greenwich/Oxford who settled in Tioga Co,Pa, in 1825. This
>> latter family is also the family of Jeremiah and Ann Lefler ROLOSON of
>> Oxford(1780s) whose desc. also went to the Finger lakes. I seek proof of
>> some kind or degree that the family of Peter Lefler b. 1776,NJ, m Rebecca
>> Pross and found in Chemung CO,NY, in 1810 , is the father of LARISON
>> LEFLER with whom they lived in Bradford CO,Pa, abt 1850, in order to find
>> proof that this Peter is a close relative of my Christopher and of
>> Philip-which we have no strong evidence of at all at this time but feel
>> surely is the case. Thus I seek the descendency of Larison Lefler b. NJ
>> abt 1812. These Peter Lefler people lived next to the LARISON and
>> RIGHTMIRE and BURT families in Bradford Co,Pa.throughout the 1800s. My
>> latest effort is to find Charles Lefler's family who is the son of
>> Larison Lefler Jr and b in 1898. He was single and in Queens,NY, with two
>> sisters in 1930. Looking for the dna test possibility. Bob Lefler-----
