Helen's father fell in love again and remarried after her mother died. Elsie was wonderful. She brought some family heirlooms into our family, and we ended up with them. Here are 4 framed certificates for your interest.

The first is in Pennsylvania-Dutch handwriting and hard for me to read, but contains a date: 1824. The second is a birth and baptism certificate from 1835. The third comes from about the same date. The fourth is a birth certificate from 1896. Probably all are Elsie's ancestors?
