As at least some of this list knows, I have been working on my Harter family history. I understand that Joseph Harter and his brother, Israel Harter, were early pastors and presiding Elders of the North Manchester church. I understand that Joseph, in particular, was instrumental in the church's foundation. (Their father, John Harter, was an early pastor of the Palestine church - Darke County, Ohio.) I have a picture which is supposedly of Israel, but I have been unable to confirm this. If anyone has pictures of the family, please contact me. My records to date indicate that Israel (and wife, Charlotte Kitson) had only one son, Stephen (1838 to 1898), who had one son, Noble. I have that Noble married Dellie Freshour, but no other information. I have no information on Joseph other than he moved to Wabash County in 1836 and was living in a cabin along the Eel River when Israel arrived a year later. I would like very much to correspond with anyone who is familiar with the early years of the North Manchester church or of the Harter family in North Manchester. Bob Harter
