    3. Richard - Wow! I didn't know that Elizabeth Achenbach and Nathan Gruber were also buried at St. John's! I've been pretty much homebound for the past while and have not been able to get over to St. John's to poke around for several years, certainly not since I've discovered Elizabeth & Nathan were Mary Gruber's parents - that discovery only came to me within the past year or so. I did know that their daughter Mary E. Gruber and her husband Thomas Henry Dehart were buried at St. John's. Mary & T. Henry Dehart's daughter Ada was my paternal grandmother. Ada and her husband, Earl L. Yohn are also buried at St. John's. Hmmm...Elizabeth's parents were your gr-gr-grandparents and my 3x gr-grandparents. I THINK that makes us 3rd cousins, once removed, yes??? If so, I think that's awesome! (I can't place right now the source where I obtained Elizabeth's middle initial as "M"...it's probably somewhere in my random miscellaneous notes that have yet to be properly dealt with and filed LOL) Karen from Berks Cawhnty Richard wrote: "Ja, gewiss, Elizabeth ("M"?) Achenbach, 6 Dec 1831-27 Jun 1913, was the daughter of my great, great grandparents, John and Maria (Bechtold) Achenbach. She married Nathan Gruber, 31 Dec 1827-12 Feb 1889, on a date unknown to me. They are buried on St. John's Cemetery in Mt. Aetna. "
