    2. This is a Message Board Post that is gatewayed to this mailing list. Author: ShellyH4 Surnames: Brubaker, Lesher, Barncord, Brandt, Sheller Classification: queries Message Board URL: http://boards.rootsweb.com/surnames.lesher/269.1.2/mb.ashx Message Board Post: Would there be any land or will records for this Peter BRUBAKER, husband of Maria LESHER? I am looking to document the information stated by Richard Warren Davis that Abraham and Maria (Lesher) Brubaker had a(n) (unnamed) daughter who married Jacob BARNCORD. She would be of the generation to marry the Jacob Barncord who lived 1792 - 1853 in Franklin County, PA. This could make her the probable mother of Jacob's children NOT the wife, Catherine, who is found with him in 1850 and in his 1853 will. The vast majority of trees identify her as the mother of Jacob's children. Some name her as Catherine Brandt, which brings up the possibility that she is the widow of John Sheller, further evidenced by the Elizabeth Sheller in the Jacob Barncord household in 1850 and in the household of Catherine Barncord, widow of Jacob, in 1860. I hope to find proof or denial of this theory. If you can point me to some record sources, I would be quite grateful. Important Note: The author of this message may not be subscribed to this list.
