This collaborates some of what I received from now deceased member of our family. Large portions of what I have identify where the Pence family intersects with ours across many generations. Much of what I inherited in documentation may have come from the Barth.Co. Museum. Unfortunately they have no electronic copies of any of the information, so I will make a trip, perhaps this year to visit the area first hand and see how much of what I have can be verified. It amazes me how much the family name appears to vary. It would be imformative to better understand why. Dan Stevenson- With the info you provide from the census data, this ties the parents of Joseph to Henry Stein/Steenbarger (b-abt 1786,d-4/5/1867) and Polly Bozzell (b-1791,d-2/22/1867) who started the Steinberger/Steinbarger cemetery (I'm not sure which is used on the cemetary?)
