I ended up with a similar #SurnameStudy for one of the names in my #FamilyTree: Freligh (Froelich/Freleigh/Fraleigh/etc).

I began with an existing compiled printed #genealogy, but I've found a lot more than what's there, over the years. I've even discovered an error in the printed genealogy.

I also created a #timeline to organize all the various surname matches I found which were the same first name as my ancestors. (There were a lot of John, Henry, William, & George Frelighs in early 1800s America, apparently.)

I highly recommend making #timelines when researching genealogy. It was by doing so that I caught the error in the original document. It also explained WHY my ancestors made various life decisions (such as moving to different cities & changing jobs), when I put their life events right next to historical events.

Many years ago, I chanced upon a printed Genealogy of the Freligh family, written by Genealogist Theodore “Ted” Overbagh.

At the time, I had no evidence that my #Freligh lines met up with the ones in his Genealogy, so I contacted the author to see if he had any further information. He then sent me his “Addendum” to that document. From the second document, I was able to connect my Freligh lines to his substantial compiled #Genealogy.

[This article is intended to be a resource for Genealogists researching the Freligh surname and associated surnames, such as Fraleigh and Froelich. Additional resources for researching this surname and the Palatine Emigrants (aka “Pennsylvania Dutch”) are listed at the end of this article.]
