Hi, I am trying to find out some info on Elizabeth Yoh, she was the daughter of Daniel Yoh (1800-1848) & Anna Maria Faust (1805-1887). I have info she married a Fister. I found a marriage record for Morgan Fister & Elizabeth Yoh in Kutztown on Apr 18 1857, and I am thinking that this is the Elizabeth I am seeking, I do not know when or where Elizabeth was born, I found Anna Maria living in Penn Twp. In the 1870 census. Michelle in OH

I got her birth and baptism from Belleman's Church. Born 27 May 1837 Bapt. 23 Jul 1837 The birth fits nicely with a 1857 marriage date.
