Val, I think I erred in saying maybe Anthony with the daughter Elizabeth was still living and that a guardian might have been appointed anyway when he moved away. I am pretty sure now that her marriage record says "daughter of Anthony Kiger, decd." So I am back to thinking there must have been 2 Anthony Kigers. In fact the 2 Anthony's might well have been father and son. The original Anthony Geiger/Kiger was born in 1754 and could well have had children from his first marriage by the mid 1770s. And those children could have had children by the 1790s--who could have been marrying by 1812 as this Elizabeth Kiger was. Just a thought! Joan
