Donna at the What's Past Is Prologue blog challenged genea-bloggers to list where their ancestors were located in 1808 - 200 years ago. Read her post "1808: Where was your family 200 years ago?" for her list and observations.
I'm going to do this in two parts because my list is pretty long - that's the benefit of a fine New England ancestry - many lines go back into the 1600's.
Here's the CARRINGER side of my ancestry (my descendant ancestor is denoted with an *):
* Martin Carringer (1758-1835) and Mary Houx (1768-1850) resided in Sandy Creek township, Mercer County, PA with their children Jacob, Elisabeth, Katharine, George, Calli, Heinrich*, Soloman and Joseph Carringer.
* Cornelius Feather (1777-1852) and his wife Sarah --?-- resided in Warren township, Trumbull County, OH with their children Sarah*, John and George Feather.
* Rudolf Spengler (1738-1811) and his wife Dorothea Dinkel (1748-1835) resided in York township, York County, PA perhaps with several of their children, including John Daniel* Spangler.
* Philip Jacob King (1764-1829) and his wife Christina Johnston (?) (1770-1813) resided in York township, York County, PA with their children George, Elizabeth*, Sarah, Jacob, Rebecca, Anna Maria and Barbara King.
