Henry Jacob & Magdalena HESS STOUFFER lived in Donegal Twp and had also lived in Warwick Twp of Lancaster County. I believe they paid some taxes in Mount Joy Twp. I see that Mount Joy is near Lebanon County so hope I am not searching for graves in an incorrect county. There was a picture of their tombstones on the Internet at one time but I have not found that website and have not found their graves. Jacob died 1775 and Magdalena a few years later. Henry Jacob Stouffer was the father of the Abraham Stouffer that married Barbara Hershey and Elizabeth Boyer. Can anyone help us locate the graves? Appreciatively BK Stauffer
The information that I have on Jacob Stauffer m. Magdalena Hess has him buried in Witwer-Holl. Cem, Earl Twp., Lancaster Co., PA in 1775, but I do not have burial information for her. I have never seen a picture of this tombstone. However, a long time ago I did find pictures of Magdalena's parents' tombstones and those pictures are on Virtual Cemetery. I am also a descendant of Abraham Stouffer.
