-------- Original Message -------- Subject: Cryder, Kryder, Kreider, Greiter Date: Mon, 10 Feb 2003 05:22:24 -0700 From: "Nearhoof" <nearhoof@nb.net> To: <PAHUNTIN-D-request@rootsweb.com> In the Huntingdon County court house I found a Last Will and Testament for Joseph Kreider of Warriors Mark Township dated July 4, 1821. The will is in old German script. I had the will translated and will be donating a copy of the translation to the Huntingdon Historical Society and the Blair County Genealogy Society. I was wondering if anyone knows what dates may be Joseph's gravestone. I am interested in his date of birth and death (death probably sometime in 1821). I would like to determine when and where he may have come to this country. According to History of Huntingdon and Blair Counties, Pennsylvania by J. Simpson Africa, "Joseph Krider and his wife Eve came from Berks County at an early day, and settled a little east of Spring Mount, the site of which was on the Krider tract. He died in that locality, and was interred in the Rumberger graveyard." As some on this list may know, his wife was Eva Rumberger, his daughter Lydia born Aug 14, 1816 - died July 15, 1867 married Isaac Buck and his daughter Elizabeth married Daniel Beck etc. Any information from Joseph's gravestone or any additional information on Joseph Sr. will be appreciated.
