    3. > Married: 1. Margaret STEESE > b. 1793, near Freeburg, Snyder Co., PA > d. Aug. 1801 Hi - I loaned out my Centre Co Rev Soldiers book so I can't look this up, but Margaret Steese could not have been born in 1793 and died in Aug 1801 and still have been a married woman. I suspect the birthdate is incorrect, but I don't know if this is an email typo or an error in the book. Gloria Harbach

    3. Jean, Excuse me for jumping in here, but I have a Philip MEYER (b 11/14/1755 Muhlbach, Lebanon, PA d 04/27/1831 place unkn) who married an AnnaMargaret MORR (b 08/20/1759 place unkn d 03/12/1829 Centre Co., PA). And then also his brother, Henry MEYER (b 10/15/1764 Mill Creek Twp., Lebanon Co., PA d 05/17/1820 place unkn), married Margaret HARPER (b abt 1764 no other info). Would these be the ones you wrote of? I don't have very much else on these folks and was wondering if perhaps you did... ?

    3. Justin, Thanks for the info on the Old Stanford Cemetery. I knew I asked the right person.. My names are on the list you included. John Koon (Kuhn) 1799-1855 was my gg grandfather and the Reuben and George Page were his sons-in-law. Don't know where any of the wives are buried. Possibly in Boalsburg. John married twice: first to Susanna Snarr then her sister Julian Snarr. Ream also sounds familiar - One of my Kuhn ancestors married someone by that surname but I have to check my notes further. If any one else on this list has these surnames, I'd like to hear from you. Thanks again, Arline JKHouser84@aol.com wrote: > Arline, > > Yes, I know where this cemetery is, and have been there twice.

    1. Re: [PACENTRE] cemeteries
    2. Arline, Yes, I know where this cemetery is, and have been there twice. There was supposed to have been a Presbyterian Church built there, but it never happened. Gen. Potter's mother was buried there, in 1791. She has no known marker. It is in a horrible condition, with the cows having trampled all over it; it is overgrown and the headstones are lying in a horrible disarray. I plan to go out there this winter yet so if you can give me the names I will look. I honestly think some of the headstones are just there but are buried under the leaves and dirt. Some of them were removed, however, by Col. Theodore Boal. You may know that his wife was the closest relative of Christopher Columbus (1451-1506) during her time. When her aunt died in the early 1900s, she inherited all the possessions of the Columbus estate at that time. These were shipped to Boalsburg, Harris Twp., where the Columbus Chapel was constructed to house them (Col. Boal and his wife were enormously wealthy). The chapel includes many of the artifacts of Columbus and his family, and a splinter from what is rumored to be the Cross of Christ, which was discovered by the wife of Emperor Constantine in about 337 A.D., as I understand it. Underneath the chapel is a vault in which are stored the bodies of Col. Boal and his family. His wife is not there, however; after his death in 1938, she returned to her native France, expressing a distaste for American life and style. She is buried in France. At any rate, to enhance his chapel, Col. Boal removed several headstones from the Old Standford burying ground and placed them behind his chapel. They stand today and have been recorded by the genealogical society. Whether he had the remains moved or not is anyone's guess. Here are the markers known to exist: Old Standford Cemetery Elijah Fitzgerald (1830-1831) Mary Ford (1779-1851) John Koon (1799-1855) Harriet Ford (1815-1823) Reuben Page (1860-1861) George Page (died 1872) Stones there in 1928, not accounted for: Hiram W. Ford (1814-1838) Catharine Keatley (1857-1858) Isaac Ream (1820-1828) [I believe these are probably buried a few inches beneath the surface and can be found with a probe.] Stones in the rear of the Columbus Chapel: Michael Jack (1752-1829) Susanna Jack (1757-1815) Jeremiah Culbertson (1789-1832) Mary J. Livingston (1839-1842) William Keatley (1784-1840) Margaret Keatley (1787-1829) Remains in the vault under the chapel Lt. Col.

    3. Hi all -- Yes, let's work on the Watsons. My James Watson of Potter's township had several sons who must have fathered lots of Watson descendants but so far, I haven't found any information about them or their offspring. I haven't been able to find information about these sons of James Watson: John Watson, born @1776 Thomas Watson, born @ 1777 James Watson, born @ 1783. There must be some information about what happened to them somewhere. These are all in the age range that they could have fathered Judy's Joseph, so perhaps we can kill two birds with one stone, or at least eliminate this line from consideration. I have been corresponding with Judy and am hoping we are distantly related. Can anyone help? Thanks to everyone who has responded to my original post.

    3. Someone named Joanna on one of these lists has a virus-infected computer. The virus is Badtrans 2902A Joanna, you will need to go to one of the virus websites and learn how to have the virus cleaned from your computer. Good luck.
