Elizabeth Slip (nee Ryson)

October 17, 2009 in ryson | No comments

For the sake of clarity, I will refer to Elizabeth’s parents as being from my 9th generation only, even though clearly they belong to both my 8th and 9th generations of ancestors through different lineages.

Elizabeth Reisner (Ryson) daughter of Johannes Reissner and Anna Catharina Hauser married Leonard Slipp in 1772. Elizabeth was born on 18 Dec 1756 [1]. She died on 9 Feb 1821.
