This genealogy blog came about because I inherited so many photos and documents from both my grandma and mother. Rather than keeping them to myself, I would like to share with others who may be looking for these same people. Names of Lancaster County, PA families that may be found here include: Applebach, Findley, Garner, Groff, Mosser/Musser, Musselman, Newpher, Ressler, Stover, Wolfe, Yost

FRANK RESSLER - 70TH BIRTHDAY
I don't know the source for this, it was among the papers that grandma gave me. Maybe the Lancaster newspaper...
FRANK RESSLER FARM
Frank RESSLER farmed in New Providence township. The address it would have been in the 1920 - 1940's was a rural route and I do not have a current address.
This was the previous home on the farm and was where all of Frank and Bertha's children were born. Grandma thought this picture was taken in the early 1920's.
Anna RESSLER in the early 1920's with the farm buildings in the background.
PLEASE NOTE:
However, thanks to cousin Michael RESSLER who was willing to share this photo, this is what the farm looked like in 2012. When grandma was alive and we would drive in that area, she always refused to stop. She said too many changes had occurred and it didn't even look like the home place to her anymore.
The above house was built in the very late 1930's or very early 1940 and is in the background of several photos of my mom labeled 1940.

These two go with the 2 others that I put on here earlier. It must have been quite a family event to have had these pictures taken.
