Found a number of references to Captain Martin Weaver - there are muster rolls or lists of some sort for 1778, 1779, 1780, 1781, 1783, with most of the entries for the Fourth Battalion of the Lancaster County militia, a couple with the 10th Battalion. Sometimes a colonel is listed such as Col Robert Elder, sometimes the reference is to Capt Martin Weaver only. None of these citations list place of service. Citations appear in the 5th Series, Volume VII, pages 363, 386, 392, 408, 510, 527, 995, 996, 997, 1008, 1046. So it appears that he served his new country throughout the Rev War. There is only one entry on page 347 that lists any place of service and that is for Captain Albright Deibler's unit in which Martin Weaver was a 2nd Lt. The description says they returned home after nearly a year of service in January of 1777. They had been at the battle of Long Island, where a number of the unit were taken prisoner and some such as my Ludwig Bretz barely got away, leaving their muskets stacked by the fires it was so close. Then they were detailed to to frontier in the following year - or 1777. Martin Weaver apparently mustered into another outfit as captain at the beginning of 1777, with Colonel Rogers. The only other entry for Martin Weaver is a note in the 5th series, Vol II, page 44, that he was a justice of the peace and died in 1803. Some entries - probably a duplicate of those in the PA Archives can be found in Egles Notes and Queries - didn't check them tonight. Joan Bretz

Thanks Bill. Where did you get the records? I don't know if I realized it or not but you say Jr was born in Upper Paxton in 1775 which would help place the time they moved up from near Lancaster. And I don't know that I realized he was buried at the church - which means there are at least two stones I need to try to locate. Oh and by the way, I believe it was Anna Moyer he married - don't know if you made a type or the records did.

To tell you the truth, I'm not sure that a visit would provide a lot of help. The current church is a large brick one (if I remember correctly). The church does have an office with staff though I'm not sure of the hours - you may have to make a phone call. There is a newer portion and an older portion to the cemetery. Let's say you are facing the church and cemetery from the road (since I'm not sure of the directions there) - the old cemetery would be to your far right and the current church to your left. I believe that the old church was to the right beyond the cemetery near a stream; I was there during growing time so couldn't see much beyond the trees. Many years ago my dad and I visited the church - we were fortunate that the caretaker was there that day and apparently was the son of the previous caretaker. I guess like many old cemeteries, that one had fallen on hard times - they had taken all the stones out in order to clear out the brambles et al, then set the remaining stones back in - which would explain why the remaining stones are set in pretty straight lines. It is not a large cemetery; you could walk the entire cemetery in maybe 15 minutes if you were pausing to look at all the stones in both older and newer sections. The old portion alone might take about 5 minutes. Why my interest? My 4th ggrandfather is supposed to have been buried there. There are church records available - I can't remember if I looked through them at the PA State Library in printed version or if I looked through them on microfilm version. Since my notes are hand written, I probably used microfilm . You might get them through a Mormon library or via interlibrary loan or through the Evangelical Church Historical Society in Lancaster. I know I did not view them at the church though they may have a copy there. My Ludwig Bretz is supposed to have died in 1807 and been buried there (according to a family history published in 1890 when some of the grandchildren would still have been living). Unfortunately, there were no records for a 10-15 year period of time around 1807, although I found him and his children attending church prior to that date so I know he was affiliated with it - in fact, his land was right across the road from the church. I found nothing that remotely looked like his headstone. Other than church records, I don't know that they have any burial records; when I was there last during business hours, I did not have time to stop in for any research as I was showing an out of town cousin where his ancestors had lived and were buried. I need to go up to the church for a visit as I would like to place a marker to mark his resting place and in honor of his Rev War service (in Capt Weaver's company from my prior message today - see Barbara, I continue to make progress on emptying my inbox!). Also if your ancestor died in the early days, remember that his stone might have been in German script, using the old red sandstone and by now be buried deep under the dirt or broken into many pieces. Andy, I live in Harrisburg at the north end of the city (off Route 39 if you look at an atlas) and as I recall it would take at least half an hour to get to the cemetery which is near Millersburg on the western edge of Dauphin County. I live perhaps 15-20 minutes from the PA Turnpike that is near I83 where it joins I283 on the east shore. So you would probably need to allow a minimum of 45-60 minutes to get up there - it is not via any major roads. I'd have to check my atlas to get the specific directions. And if you are near Millersburg, keep in mind that they have a working ferry boat across the river - you might want to take a ride across and back. There is an historical society in Millersburg - I've never visited it but I think it may be worth a trip though I don't know their hours; one can never tell what records they might have. If you are looking for a more recent burial record at the cemetery, they may have them at the church. There are several Lutheran churches in that area and I suspect that there might have been a circuit riding preacher who visited several of them. I have looked in the cemetery at Salem (I think) to no avail. Andy, have you checked the internet for the phone number? The church is not located in a town, it is on the open road across from farmlands so a street address will do little good; the area is called Killinger. Again as I recall, the church is about 5-10 miles out from Millersburg - the road turns off from in town and is a bit tricky to spot. If you want directions for a July trip, let me know and I can be more precise. Hope this helps with your trip planning.

Hi Andy. Did you ever get answers to your questions? If not, I can probably answer some of them, but I don't want to be repetitive.

Hi Joan, No, I didn't receive any answers to my questions. I'm going to Philly in July and would like to visit the cemetery if it is still there. Any help would be appreciated. Thank.

Joan, No, I haven't been able to find out any more specific information about that Company. Someone once told me they thought they had served on the western frontier against the Indians, but just from the study of the Revolutionary War I find that to be not very likely. The military emergency was always on the eastern seaboard from 1776-1778 and the armies sent to the western frontier area were pretty much the responsibility of Virginia. I have never received any other responses to the original query. Neil Elvick Folsom, CA In a message dated 6/18/2007 6:20:31 A.M. Pacific Daylight Time, jbretz1@earthlink.net writes: Good morning.

Most likely, spammer used a computer, maybe a public library computer, where someone else had read things to do with Dauphin county genealogy, maybe their email, and your e-mail address was there. I've seen that happen. Then the spammer or the program the spammer wrote pretended to send spam from those addresses.

Thank you for the information. In looking at it again the e-mail address is yahoo.fr which I take to mean France. Thanks again Jim in VT ************************************** See what's free at http://www.aol.com.

You received what is known as a "spoofed" email. The spammer simply used the email return address of a known site. The website was probably never hacked or compromised in any way. It's the same thing as someone putting a false return address on an envelope in the postal mail, and just as easy to do. Almost everyone has received email that purports to be from a local bank, or ebay, or from Microsoft. Of course its not. I regularly receive all sorts of email offers and junk that appear to be from my own site, when I know they did not originate there (you can tell by checking the email properties and tracing the route--it usually originates in Europe or Asia). That's why everyone needs to make sure their virus protection is up to date and have a good working firewall installed, which will catch 99% of that stuff and route it into your junk mail folder.
