Research Notes:

We are researching Fredrick Wolf, brother of Christina Wolf, who married Henry Baltzly. We have assumed that Frederick Wolf, living in Ohio with Martha Hensel 1840-1855 (both buried at the Fehl Cemetery), was the same person as this Frederick Wolfe, whose children were baptized in Adams County, Pennsylvania. We seek further evidence about this possible relationship.
