Karl: I received your "Cemeteries of Dauphin County" supplement on the Mumma Farm Cemetery, designated #220, in this morning's mail, and want to thank you for the quick response. The Highspire Ladies had their Tuesday morning breakfast this morning at McDonalds, and RUTH FIES' sister told me she was unaware of a FISHER/FIES farm in the vicinity. Her sister married Ralph (?) FIES and moved to Lebanon County, but she'll ask her sister about a farm next time she gets in from the greater Pittsburgh area. Again, thanks for the cemetery update.

Lee Pickel, Middletown Cemetery Caretaker: Many thanks for digging up the old files looking for CRABB, YOUNG, etc. in your cemetery. I regret not finding ANY CRABB interments in your files, and wish I could read the old reinterment records clearly of the old Presbyterian graveyard. I'll check out the stones during low sunlight, as you suggested. You may be interested in the cemetery links to my web pages that are listed below. "Charles E.

I have been trying to find some record of birth for my grandfather, William Decatur WINDLE or SANSOM-COFFIN, I wrote to the court house and they said they couldn't find one, he was born in Steelton PA. Jan 13th 1898 his mother was Jennie COFFIN and father could have been Isaac WINDLE, but there are rumors that his father could have been someone with last name of SANSOM, If anyone knows this area (STEELTON) and could send a list of churches or anything to help find the right father for William, thank you.

The author's father, Benjamin Esbenshade was a small boy at the time of the death of his grandfather, Peter Espenschied. He frequently mentioned that he remembered him quite well. It is significant that he claimed the three brothers Joh. Valentine, Joh. Peter, and Joh. Daniel Espenschied came to America at the same time. The author's father when 75 years of age, left a prepared statement, in which he wrote there were three brothers who did not come to America. This part of his statement is confirmed by the data given in the Siefersheim Church record. The Joh. preceding the brother's names of these immigrant forefathers is an abbreviation for Johan and was used as a prefix name. Valentine Espenschied settled in the vicinity of Harrisburg, Dauphin Co., Pa. in 1798. He was known to the author's father as "Felty" or "Velty" Espenshade. When Valentine makes his first real estate transaction in 1798 he uses the nickname Velty; when his estate is settled in 1826 it was administered as Valentine Espenshade. He was drafted into the Pennsylvania militia, 1790-1800, to serve in Col. Thomas Forster's Regiment No. 1, Capt. Sam Sherer's Company and received his pay under the name of Valentine Aspenshade. P.A., s.6, V.5,P. 274 None of the three immigrant brothers are listed in the first U.S. census (1790) and, of course, this indicates that they were not heads of families until later. That is all there is on Valentine. I hoped it helped. Care to explore the Bowman's?? Yvonne

1. Joh. Rudolph Espenschied was b. 9-10-1751 d. 1-10-1832 at Kreuznach, is known to be the progenitor of the Bingen-Coblentz line (of the Rhine wine branch fame) of Espenschieds. Because of its importance this branch developed its own family crest or coat of arms. NFR 2. Joh. Adam Espenschied was b. 12-26-1753 and d. 12-28-1813 at Siefersheim, Germany. NFR 3. Maria Barbara Espenschied was b. 2-7-1755. NFR 4. Joh. Henrich Espenschied was b. 6-11-1758. NFR 5. Joh. Valentine Espenschied was b. 7-13-1760 at Siefersheim, Ger, emigrated to the port of Phila. Pa. in 1787, settled later in the vicinity of Harrisburg, Dauphin Co., Pa. and is the progenitor of one branch of Espenschieds in that vicinity, that are now widely distributed throughout the U.S. 6. Joh. Peter Espenschied was b. 4-20-1763 at Siefersheim, Ger, emigrated in 1787 to the port of Phila, Pa. He was m. to Elizabeth Howry of Strasburg, Pa., she having been at the time the widow of John LeFevre. 7. Joh. Daniel Espenschied was b. 8-11-1765 at Siefersheim, Germany, emigrated to, arriving at the port of Phila. Pa. 10-14-1787. He was m. to Elizabeth LeFevre, sister to John LeFevre who m. Elizabeth Howry. He settled on LeFevre acres in Paradise Twp. Lanc. Co. Pa, on a farm that adjoined that of his brother, Peter. The written record of his arrival at the port of Phila. is found in Strassburger and Hinke, pub. in 1934. V.3, p.28 where he is listed as Daniel Spenscheld, arrived at the port of Phila. Pa. from Rotterdam, 10-14-1787, Serverus Dalsted, Master, Ship Dorothea. He is the only one of the three immigrant brothers for whom a record of arrival has been found. His descendants are now widely distributed in Pa. and throughout the U.S. see next post for more on Valentine. Yvonne

Dawn, I am sorry it took so long for me to get back to you. Life is in full swing here. Anyhow, I may not be able to help you as much as I thought, but perhaps there is something new here for you on Valentine. The meaning of the name Espenschied or Espenscheid is quite simple. The name means a political border of watershed surrounded by Espen or Aspen (poplar trees). It seems that it is derived by combining two stem words: Espen or Aspen, meaning an espen or aspen tree + scheid or schied, schiedt, etc., meaning a part cut-off, a political border, watershed or a part bounded. The name is of German origin. Peter Espenschied and his two brothers, Valentine and Daniel were the immigrants. Gothard Espenschied who d. at Siefersheim, 3-23-1708, was m. 6-30-1674 to Maria Kathrina Kettinger and they were the parents of 11 chn. The oldest child of this union was Sebastian Espenschied who m. 6-18-1709 Judith Kohler. The fifth child of Gothard Espenschied and Maria Katarina Kettinger was Joh. Nickolaus Espenschied who was b. 10-8-1682 at Siefersheim, d. 2-22-1769 at the same place, was m. first 4-23-1726 to Anna Katharine (surname unknown) and they were the parents of 5 chn. She dying 6-3-1737 he m. his second wife, Anna Katharina Surer and they were the parents of 6 chn. The second child of Joh. Nickolaus by his first wife was Andreas Espenschied, b. 8-7-1729 at Siefersheim, d. there, 5-25-1799, was m. 7-14-1750 to Anna Barbara Lotz. b. 11-17-1726 at Siefersheim and d. 9-24-1781 in the Ruhr. Andreas Espenschied had Barbara Lotz were the parents of 8 chn. of whom three were the immigrants, Joh. Valentine, Joh. Peter, and Joh. Daniel Espenschied. The order of the chn. of Andreas Espenschied and Barbara Lotz, all of whom were b. at Siefersheim which was at the time under the Electorate of Mainz, Germany and which in 1940 is in the province of Rheinhessen, Germany which is located about 12 miles south of the City Bingen on the Rhine, is as follows. See next post. Yvonne

Bob, Thank you very much. Shirley

Thank you so very much, Dawn.

Hello Shirley, I searched "ancestry.com" and found two entries for John B. KEISTER. #1. John B. Keister- 1 Batt'n Inf. (6 months 1863/4) He entered as a private and was discharged as a private. #2. John B. Keister- 200 Pennsylvania Inf. No dates of service. He entered as a private and was discharged as a sergeant. As for pension records, there were several entries for a John Keister, but none fit the unit in which he served. Sorry I can't be of more help. Have you tried "familysearch.com"? BOB BEYERLE shirbob31@aol.com

The only one without an initial. If you want more info on any of the battles, there's info for 13 of them.

I'm hoping that some kind soul would do a Civil War look-up for me. I don't subscribe to ancestry, so I am unable to see what they have a John B. KEISTER. He resided in Dauphin Co. Pa. I had this information, but must have thrown it away. I would like to send for his Military & Pension Records. Thank you so much. Shirley
