- “The other "Amos Yordy" (b. ca. 1851) was born in Pennsylvania and was the son of Christian and Susanna Yordy. There were several Yordy families from Pennsylvania that located in far northern Illinois in the mid-1800's. Their progenitor was Peter Yordy (b. 1676) who emigrated to Pennsylvania from Switzerland in 1717 under the auspices of William Penn, and helped found Germantown, Pennsylvania. It is that family's DNA results that we are awaiting to determine if we share a common ancestor.” [1]
