    1. [PALEBANO] Johannes Keller bn 1711 Germany died 1767 Berks Co, PA
    2. Hi all, can't remember who I all wrote about Johannes KELLER in Heidelberg Twp, Berks Co, PA before who is a Moravian. If I didn't write to you I'm sorry for confusing you. Those who are getting this more than once again I'm sorry. I'm also sending this to others I correspond with my KELLER's around Ruscombmanor Twp, Berks Co, PA hoping they might recognize Mary Alice's Johannes KELLER and can help her out more. Mary Alice wrote to me about Johannes KELLER's son who I called the younger. When i previously wrote I put his marriage date to Anna Maria GLAD/GLATT as the death date. Johannes KELLER the younger was born 22 Sep 1743 and married 23 Apr 1764. I apologize for that error. I do not have his death date. Mary Alice also mentioned a will abstract at the Berks Co. Courthouse for Elizabeth KELLER "widow of John, Heidelburg: recorded 1777 (it was written in 1761) leaves :All estate tosister Susanna and her children". Mary Alice wrote she found this somewhat surprising that she didn't leave anything to her own children! Johannes Sr. died 1767 left "all my land and plantatoin in Heidelburg, and remainder of personal estate" to son Johannes. Well according to my records, which are very few records, Johannes Sr. did die on the date you mentioned but his widow [wife #2 Eva Elizabeth (HAUZ)] died 27 Apr 1777. As far as i know she never had any children. Plus as far as i know Johannes Sr. only had one surviving child, Johannes the younger. When Johannes Sr. died Eva Elizabeth lived with her stepson. So even though Johannes Sr. left the land, plantation, etc. to Johannes the younger, Eva Elizabeth still lived there as a widow. I do not have the will. If you have it I'd love to have it!!!! I haven't gotten around to getting all my ancestors wills at the courthouse with working with my TOBIAS family the most. Mary Alice also mentioned Henry KELLER and his 4 siblings she thought were the children of Johannes Sr. if I'm reading the letter right. She mentioned a Johannes KELLER who died in Greenwich Twp, Berks Co, PA in 1760. He had a wife Elizabeth but mentioned no children on that will abstract. Does anyone recognize this Henry KELLER who had 4 siblings???? Does anyone know about this Johannes KELLER who died in Greenwich Twp in 1760 who had a wife Elizabeth? Did they have any children and were they minors???? If anyone can help Mary Alice or me these families, let me know. I know many wrote before and some mentioned info and may have given it me on my Johannes KELLER. I apologize if I forgot to thank you or list any corrections you gave me. With getting the flu in Feb. and still having the effects of the congestion and having other family members in and out of the hospital I am so behind on my letters. Gosh i must be years behind on my letters and I apologize for this. I will get to them. I really do love doing genealogy and am so glad for the info on this KELLER line of mine. That makes 3 KELLER lines for me!!! This surname is as popular as MILLER! One day I'll be able to hop across to Germany to find further info on these ancestors~ Take care all and sorry this is long. Look forward to hearing more from you.
