MOYER, b. 1833 NY, m. ca 1855 Malinda FETTERLY, b.1836 Herkimer Co, NY. Children: Jacob J., Rosetta A., Julia A., Margaret, Florence M., Josephine E. John's parents: ? Malinda's parents: Johannes Jacob FETTERLY and Margaret SISSON (or PRICE?) Any ties? Thanks, Nicci >> Nicci, I don't have data that will help you at the moment, but it may help someday. The Moyer/Mayer/Maier/etc. data I have are: Family #1. Johann Adam Mayer/Moyer and wife Anna Maria had children: i. Anna Elisabeth born 3 Jul 1752 Stone Arabia, Montgomery Co., NY; md. 23 Mar 1768 at Stone Arabia Ulrich Bauder/Bader. ii. Jacobus Moyer born 24 Nov 1759 Stone Arabia, bapt. 26 Jan 1760 at DRC in Stone Arabia. Family #2. Johannes Moyer born 25 Apr 1778 bapt Stone Arabia (possibly the son of Theobald and Margaretha); md. Maria Bader daughter of Ulrich Bader and Anna Elisabeth (i. above). Child: i. Elisabeth Moyer born 5 Jun 1799 bapt. at St. Paul's Lutheran Church, Minden, Mont. Co. It's likely the two families are connected, but I don't know how. Maybe another lister can help with the connection. Ed Harrison Eharr76546@cs.com

Regarding the Moyer surnames, I have some bios for them on my site. Fayette MOYER bios listed under Bios, Mohawk Valley of New York section but if you type in just the name moyer on searchbox line, will bring up additional pages where that surname is found. These are either text or scanned book images, subject to error, but make a good regional reference starting point to track down additional sources. http://freepages.genealogy.rootsweb.com/~darci/notes/bios.htm Darci
