I have found that my gggrandpa was on the 1830 Census of Franklin Co., Pa. I am hoping some kind soul in that county would do me a lookup in that county. He was a Refiner of Iron and an excellent carpenter having recently finished helping his father (George Mayberry & Benjamin Pennybacker) build the Columbia Furnace/mill in the Shenandoah County/Valley of Virginia near Woodstock, Va now-a-days just off Interstate 81 at exit 278. Israel had married Catherine Haas of Hampshire County, Virginia (now WVa) on March 27, 1827. He and Catherine would have had a couple of children either living with them or living with their grandparents in Hampshire Co., Va. Mary was listed as age 21 on the 1850 Census of Hampshire County, Va. Thomas was listed as age 19, my ggrandpa was listed as age 13, and Sarah was 13. Probably only Mary would have been with the family as she would have been about one year old on the 1830 Census of Franklin Co., Pa. He (Israel) would have probably been associated with Richmond Furnace near Chambersburg, Franklin Co., Pa. Possibly another Forge, Mill or Furnace nearby in Franklin Co., Pa. I would appreciate any help in this search. The birth of his son (my ggrandpa Francis/Frank) was reflected on a later Census as being born in Maryland. I am pretty sure it was in Fredricktown, MD or possibly Myersville area in Frederick County, MD. Israel Mayberry served in the Maryland Militia @1812. Anyone reading this and have any knowledge about this surname please contact me at the above email address. I am searching for any information that I can assemble on this family, who were very well known up and down the Shenandoah's as Iron Refiners and Mill operators during that era of our History. They were some of the first families to be involved in the Iron production in our young and emerging nation in the era of the Continental Army, the Indian wars and the war of independence. All help will be appreciated. Thank, Frank R. Mayberry in Muskogee, Oklahoma
