Denny, Glad I could help.I live near Trenton and my cousin lives in Lititz.I got much of the information from a website on the Stoehr family many years ago.My grandmother was Flora Sturgis so I'm only two generations removed from that surname.She was descended from John Sturgis, the brother of Joseph Sturgis.There were three brothers, all sons of Cornelius Sturgis, John (my ancestor) who moved out to Upper Merion Twp. (where I grew up), Anthony, who stayed in Philadelphia, and Joseph, whose son moved to Lititz.I have a lot of information on Anthony and Cornelius Sturgis if you want to learn more about them.
