Biography

Sources

  • First-hand information. Entered by Peggy Van Trump at registration.

My York Co surnames are Klinefelter, McAbee, Shearer, Reisinger from Shrewsbury, Railroad, New Freedoom. I belong to The York County Heritage Trust in York, and the Stewartstown Historical So in Stewartstown. My Lancaster Co surnames are Shaub, and Henderson, out of Strasburg and Maytown; I belong to the Maytown Historical So. Delaware Co surnames: Kernaghan from Delaware Co, and Philly. Baltimore Co surnames: Selman, Whitcomb, Fisher, Turnbaugh, from Reisterstown and Owings Mills. County Down, Northern Ireland: McKevitt, Kernaghan, Hamilton, from Newry.

I have been working on all of my branches for abt 48 yrs.

My advice to anyone new to Genealogy is Never Give Up. The other thing is to cite your sources, which is something I didn't do when I first started; there were no computers in 1966.

I was born in Philadelphia, PA.

Mother of two, and a proud grandmother.

High School graduate, worked at Towson University as a secretary for 16 yrs.

Happily retired, I am owned by a 5 yr old Schnoodle; I volunteer at the Stewartstown Historical Society.

Photography, drawing (for my own pleasure), wildlife, birding, designing and making jewelry, reading mysteries are other interests.

My father was Garfield Samuel Van Trump, his father was Henry Garfield (known as Garfield) Selman, but adopted by the Van Trump family. How do I indicate this on my Grandfather's page? Henry Garfield Selman was his birth name, changed to Garfield Selman Van Trump when adopted. Thanks!
Hi Peg, and welcome to WikiTree! You mentioned your Irish Roots, I wanted to let you know we have a great project that focuses on Irish family here called the Irish Roots Project It would be a great place for you to get involved once you have settled into WikiTree.

You may find some of your ancestors are already on WikiTree and the people in the Irish Roots Project will be happy to help you in any way they can. Thank you so much for joining WikiTree. Volunteers are what make it such an awesome place to share our family ties.

I don't know if any of our projects would interest you, but since you've been working on your tree for such a long time, you might be able to find some researchers who share your areas of interest among these projects.

Welcome to our community, Peggy. Hopefully, we may already have some of your ancestors on WikiTree which means you'd only need to connect to them rather than create new profiles for them.

Our Honor Code, G2G message forum, help pages, search features, and many other useful links can be accessed from the menus on the upper right corner of most pages.

VERY IMPORTANT: The more documents, sources, dates, and locations you provide on the profiles you create, the stronger your branches and our mutual global tree will be. If you don't know the correct date, please estimate using before or after.

Thank you for helping in our mission to build a global tree with only ONE profile per person.

Hope you enjoy WikiTree!
