She was baptised 7 Jan 1872 by Rev. F.K. Huntzinger at Shalter's Church in Fleetwood; d/o Jacob & Emeline Koch - recorded at St. Luke's Lutheran, Reading. In 1891, she married her first cousin, once removed - Howard Schmehl. Eva's mother married Franklin Miller on 17 Mar 1877, so Eva's father, Jacob Koch, must have died about 1876. So far, I have been unable to locate a record of his birth, marriage or death. I don't know who his parents were. I found a Jacob, age 14 (son of John Koch)in the 1860 census in Muhlenberg Twp. that might be my Jacob. But that's about all I have on my Koch line. Sorry I can't be more helpful. If any of that seems to fit with your family - contact me directly at snkgenealogy@hotmail.com Sharon Important Note: The author of this message may not be subscribed to this list.
