Hi to someone -- Sometime back I remember reading that a guardian was appointed because "chosen" by "Frantz " I think that was spelling. Since I've had to have all my records transferred from old cpu I know I've missed some things. However if anyone remembers such an e-mail I'd much appreciate your help. I may be inclined to think this was a minor - not the Francis Stump I'm seeking. Thanks again, Liz Stump ----- Original Message ---- From: "GlSwartz@aol.com" <GlSwartz@aol.com> To: BRETHREN@rootsweb.com Sent: Wednesday, March 26, 2008 1:54:44 PM Subject: Re: [BRE] Henry Roth/Rhoads - Troyer I believe a couple of these variations are transcript errors. Fryer appears on a warrant map, and I'm pretty sure was a transcript error. Boyer seems to appear when Droyer disappears and are again likely misreading's of the original records. I think the Orphans court record and will below refer to the same Abraham Rhoads. So, The evidence is now suffcient for me to conclude that Rebecca, wife of Jacob Rhoads, mentioned in the 1790 census, and probate records for Jacob, is identical to Barbara Troyer, d/o Michael Troyer and Magadalena Mast. (see earlier email: Subject: Re: [BRE] Henry Roth/Rhoads-re update. Abraham Date: 3/25/2008 7:09:06 P.M. Eastern Daylight Time. Text: A quick chronology for Jacob of Henry, Brothers Valley Twp) I have also used a process of elimination, and don't see any other solutions. Based on the records I've reviewed, it appears Jacob Rhoads (ca. 1748-1790), s/o Henry Rhoads (ca. 1712-1774) and Catherina, only had one survivning heir, Abraham, 1777-1866, who married Susanna Wingard. Supporting evidence: "Troyer Family Bible," Barbara, d/o Michael Troyer and Magdalena, b. 31 Jan 1757. 1790 Jun 21, Bedford Co, PA. Letters of Administration issued to Peter Buzzard on estate of Jacob Rhoads. His widow was Rebecca Rhoads. Bonds: Sol Lunn and Felix Mellin. 1790 Bedford Co, PA (M637-9), p251, ln40, Rebecka Roads, 0-1-2. (ln38 Joseph Boyer, ln54 Peter Nemire) 1793 Dec 17, Bedford Co, PA, Orphans Court. Came into court Abraham Road, grandson of Michael Boyer, above the age of 14 years and chose the said Michael Boyers as his guardian. 1803 Sep 18, will, Michael Troyer, to daughter Barbara a half share, and to Abraham Rhoads a half share. Barbara supposedly m.(2) aft. 1803 Peter Sipes. Since Barbara was already 46 years old in 1803, it is unlikely she had any children by Peter Sipe. ----------------------- Gingerich, Hugh F., "Amish and Amish Mennonite Genealogies." 2nd ed, Gordonville, PA: Pequea Pub., 2007. p526, [TY4] Barbara Troyer. m.(1) Henry Jacob Rhoads. m.(2) Peter Sipe. [my comment, I do not believe Barbara and this Peter had any issue] --------------------------- Rhods, Alvin L. "Genealogies of Rhoads-Scott and Related Families," Decorah, IA: Anundsen Pub Co, 1987. p6 [8] "Jacob, son of Henry and Katherine (Rheinhardt) Rhoads.

Will of Michael Troyer, ... to daughter Barbara a half share and to Abraham Rhoads a half share.

RE: Hi to someone -- Sometime back I remember reading that a guardian was appointed because "chosen" by "Frantz " I think that was spelling. I think that you may be mixing up the email I sent recently regarding a passage from the Peter Livengood Journal that noted that John Miller was loaned money in 1783 by Peter Livengood for keeping Frantz Stump.
