NHC Chair Neil Jesiolowski recently received the following inquiry from a relative of a long-ago Nockamixon resident:

I have been tracing the history of my ancestor, Conrad Kyser (spelled several different ways).

It looks like he came from Nockamixon.  He was born Jan 28, 1795 and was orphaned in 1802 and farmed out. He later fought in the War of 1812 at age 17, and I can then track him to Troy, Michigan.

Can you help me in where to look?

Thank you.
