    1. [PALEBANO] 'MUSSER RESEARCH"
    2. Hi, I am noticing the name "MUSSER" mentioned frequently and would like to know if anyone is familiar and or researching my "MUSSER" family. This is what I have so far: Michael MUSSER (I have no dates) married: Fannie ALBRIGHT (I have no dates) their daughter: Anna MUSSER born: 8-20-1836 died: 5-11-1917 married: 1-25-1853 by Rev. J. Baker, Lancaster Cty, PA. Benjamin F. MUSSELMAN born: 8-9-1831 died: 4-14-1912 At the time of Anna's death in 1912 there was one surviving sister: Catharine CROTHERS nee: MUSSER The informant on Anna MUSSELMAN nee: MUSSER's death certificate was Mr. Jacob Steffy address given was Mountville. Going by Benjamin's application for Civil War Pension he gives he and his wife's address as follows: December 1890 his residence was East Hempfield Township County of Lancaster State of Pennsylvania and Post Office address is East Petersburg, PA. In the year 1916 Anna MUSSELMAN nee: MUSSER's post office address was Neffsville, PA. The following is a statement given by a witness having known the Musselman's: I Mollie G. Graybill being 81 years of age having lived in the same vicinity I know them to have lived together from the time of their marriage to the death of Mr. Musselman. Mr. & Mrs. Musselman lived in our house on the same yard with us when he enlisted in the Civil War. She signed her name with an X and the witnesses to her signature were Peter (S or G) Graybill and John S. Graybill of Lancaster County, PA. Her sister Catharine also gave her statement: I Catharine Crothers, being an older sister of Mrs. Anna Musselman widow of the soldier Benjamin F. Musselman distinctly remember their wedding day to have been 1-25-1853 by reason of having been invited to the wedding but could not attend having been confined on that day. And having lived in the same vincity with Mr. & Mrs. Musselman I know that they have from their wedding until the time of Mr. Benjamin F. Musselman's death (which occurred on the 14th day of April 1912) live together as man and wife. She signed her name and the witnesses to her signature were Lizzie B Hackert and Ada Kile of Lancaster County. Please email me if you have anything on the above. Thank You, Lisa
