I've been searching for Lince info, too. Here are some things I've found:
There is a profile on Friedrich Wilhelm Linss, born 11 Apr 1756 in the (now German) region of Hessen Hanau. He married Elizabeth Kemmer on 9 March 1775. FW Linss and wife and first daughter went to the new world in 1777; he was a Hessian soldier for the British. The profile of Linss was prepared by M.A. Schwalm and is housed in the Schwalm archives. I have email attachments (jpg files) of the profile. If anyone wants a copy, email me at botw@wsmg.com and i'll forward them.
2) I've been trying to find the link between Frederick William and Bartholomew (his son) and Nancy Castleman, whom i believe were the parents of my great-grandfather Leonard Lince. Anyone know if I'm correct there?
3) Jeanette, I think you were looking for the info on James Francis Lince. I found a blurb on Lyman history of Yakima Valley (washington state) on google.com. Email me if you want a copy.
4) Finally: Joann Lince, you say you're Lowell's wife? Is this Lowell Lince originally of Selah? I'm one of Bob Lince's daughters, now living in Colorado.
