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
