THIEVES STEAL FIRE ARMS AT EMAUS A gang of clever thieves visited H.W. JARRETT's hardware store at Emaus Monday night, and got away with a big load of booty. The thieves cut out one of the big panes in the front door, crawled into the store through the opening and after passing the plunder through, crawled out the same way, lest they possibly set off a burglar alarm. They stole eight breechloaders, six revolvers, two gold-filled watches and several dollars in cash from the drawer. Although Mr. JARRETT slept overhead he heard nothing and didn't discover the theft until he got up Tuesday morning. Neither policeman nor the watchman noticed anything suspicious during the night. FRACTIOUS HORSE RENDERS MAN UNCONSCIOUS James WEISS, of Corning, met with an accident on Saturday morning. He had driven to the station when an approaching train frightened his horse and caused it to make a quick turn, throwing Mr. WEISS out, against the platform rendering him unconscious. He soon recovered consciousness after being picked up by witnesses to the accident. He was only slightly bruised. The horse ran home demolishing the harness and buggy in his mad flight. AWARDED A MEDAL AT ST. LOUIS FAIR The well known cigar manufacturers, John L. DIMMIG & Bros., of East Greenville, were awarded a bronze medal for their exhibit of cigars at the St. Louis Fair. The brands exhibited are their most popular ones, such as the "W.S. Cleveland, "Star and Crescent," and others. The medal received by J.L. DIMMIG & Bro., shows that their cigars are of the best, for there were hundreds of other exhibitors there with their best brands. SURGEON HELD FOR EXTRACTING CASH Dr. George ROOP, of Belfry, this county, who says he is a veterinary surgeon, is in jail at Norristown, charged with stealing $10 from a telephone money box and a chewing gum slot machine in the Hotel Montgomery, at Norristown. ROOP was a guest at the hotel one night but was gone early the next morning. ROOP was later detected while going into a jewelry store to secure a watch which he had there for repairs. CABBAGE PLANTS WITH MANY HEADS Mrs. W.A. CLEMMER, of Clayton, has two freak cabbage plants which she raised in her garden. The one has seventeen heads and the other eleven. Most all of the heads are of good size and solid. STORE AT HARLEM SOLD Daniel and Lewis ROTHENBERGER, of Harlem, this week, sold their store property at Harlem, at private sale to Albert SNYDER, of Sigmund. The selling price is $1300. Mr. SNYDER will take possession next April. REMOVED TO HOSPITAL FOR TREATMENT Dr. J.G. HERSH of East Greenville, on Tuesday, accompanied Mrs. Edwin CHRISTMAN, of near Spinnerstown to the Medico-Chirurgical College Hospital, Philadelphia, where she will remain several weeks for treatment to her nervous system.

Hello, Could anyone tell me if the death records (prior to 1906) at the Lehigh County Courthouse include information regarding the parents or siblings of the deceased person? Is the cost still $5.00 per record? Thank you very much for your help! Elizabeth Hagenbuch [email protected]

Bucks County History Taylor, Charles W. of Hulmeville, was born in Phila. He was the son of Calab and Lydia (Williams) Taylor, both of Phila. The pioneer of the Taylor family in America was Thomas Taylor the son of a London merchant of a considerable estate, who dying when his son was very young and left him in charge of his uncle and guardian. The uncle coveting the estate had his nephew placed onboard a Virginia trader and sent him to Virgina. Young Taylor on his arrivial in VA found refuge in the family of a tobacco farmer. In the course of time his uncle died, and the existence of an heir in VA coming out,, he was sent for. But this call he died not feel inclined to respond to. His wife, children, friends, and property were there and he had grown up with the country, while his recollections of his childhood in London were probably anything but pleasant. He however collected evidence as he though tought sufficient to establish his identity and forwarded it to the admin of the estate in London, but he would not go himself, which was fortunate thing for him as the vessel in which the document were sent was never heard from again. Thomas Taylor, a grandson of the 1st Thomas, joined the Society of Friends in his youthful days, and when the family estate came to be divided he declined to take his share, either of slaves or land that must be cultivated by the labor of slaves. His family bought him out, and he left VA and settled in York, PA, then known by the name Little York, where he died in 1837 aged 84 years. His son Caleb, went into the drug business in Phila. in 1810., barely 21 years of age. He left 4 children. All deceased except Charles W., the 2nd son and Sarah T., wife of Thomas Paul Esq, of Germantown. Caleb Taylor, Sr., married in 1814 Lydia William, a descendant of Roger Williams family, who was driven from CT on account of their religious belief, settledd in Shrewsbury, NJ.

I am looking for information on Andreas Wolf. The only concrete record I have of him is from his son, Jacob's christening. This took place in 1804 at Christ Church in Schoenersville. He is listed with his wife, Luise. I think Luise (their spelling) is Rebecca Louise Hasse. Any help would be appreciated. Thanks, Lori

Ref: Town and Country Newspaper Pennsburg, Montgomery County, PA Saturday - October 22, 1904 NEW PASTOR OF ST. MARK'S LUTHERAN CHURCH WILL BE INSTALLED TOMORROW The recently elected Pastor Rev. W.U. KISTLER (picture) of the Pennsburg Lutheran charge, composed of St. Marks Congregation, of Pennsburg and St. John's Church, of Spinnerstown, will be installed with appropriate ceremonies in St. Marks church tomorrow forenoon. The services will be conducted by Rev. Prof. C.C. BOYER, Ph. D., of Kutztown, who will deliver the charge to the Congregation and Rev. C.E. KISTLER, brother of the Pastor and Pastor of the Alsace and Blandon charge, of near Reading, who will deliver the charge to the Pastor. Brief Sketch of His Life. Rev. William Ulysses KISTLER was born on a farm in Kistler's Valley, one and one-half miles west of Lynnville, Lehigh County. His preliminary education was received in the public schools at home and in what was then known as Lynnville Adademy, being taught a term by Rev. Prof. C.C. BOYER, supply for Pennsburg Parish during its vacancy. Rev. KISTLER himself began teaching at the age of 17 years and taught 4 terms. Having had a desire for higher education and greater usefulness, he prepared for college and was entered at Muhlenberg in 1890, graduating in 1894. In the spring of 1893 Rev. KISTLER won the Junior Oratorical prize of $25, in gold, for the best English oration as to matter and manner of delivery in his class. Judge TREXLER of the Lehigh Courts was one of the judges. After graduation at college he received a State Teacher's Permanent Certificate, and with his brother, Rev. Charles E. KISTLER, of Reading, taught the above named school, at Lynnville, preparing many young men and women of the community for teaching and for college. Although very successful as a teacher, he never the less felt called to enter the gospel ministry, and thus entered the Theological Seminary at Mt. Airy, Philadelphia, from which he graduated in 1897. In the same year he was ordained at Lancaster, Pa. During Rev. KISTLER's senior vacation at the Seminary he supplied St. Marks Lutheran Church, at Delaware Water Gap, where he had his first experience in preaching. In the Spring of 1897 he was unamiously called to become pastor of the Amityville charge in Berks County, made vacant by the late Rev. U.P. HEILMAN who became the first Supt. of the Orphan's Home, at Topton. In this charge Rev. KISTLER was very successful, increasing the gift of the parish for charity extensively. While serving this charge he officiated at 210 funerals, baptized 366 children, married 97 couples. Confirmed 203, and preached 1036 sermons. His congregation in the Amity charge paid their quota towards Berk's Hall, Muhlenberg College, and were of the best supporters of the Orphan's Home, at Topton of the latter institution. Rev. KISTLER was twice elected to membership in the Board of Trustees. Rev. KISTLER makes a specialty of Botany and has in his possession an almost complete haboriun of the flora of Berks County. He also has some Indian relics which he prizes very highly. Rev. KISTLER is married to Emily E. MILLER, daughter of H.R. MILLER, of Robesonia, a retired merchant. They have one daughter, Naomi. Rev. KISTLER was the unaminous choice of the congregations which he is serving for the past few weeks and fills the charge to the entire satisfaction of all the members of both congregations. COMMUNION AT HUFFS CHURCH Rev. O.R. FRANTZ, Reformed pastor, will administer the holy communion at Huffs Church Oct. 30, at 9.30 a.m. Confirmation of a class of 28 catechumens and preparatory services will be held on the Saturday previous at 1.30 p.m. JUDGE SENTENCED A FORMER CHUM Judge SWARTZ, of Norristown, last week sentenced Romanus B. BECHTEL, of Ambler, who was convicted of illegally selling liquor, to six months in jail and $500 fine. Before the sentence was imposed, Judge SWARTZ read Mr. BECHTEL a severe lecture. The Judge and defendent had been neighbors when boys and attended public school together at Kulpsville and in the course of his remarks the Judge emphasized the fact that from the bringing up of the prisoner one was justified in expecting better things. A RECORD BREAKING CATTLE SALE John F. SEASHOLTZ, the well known horse and cattle dealer of Red Hill, held a record breaking cattle sale on Tuesday afternoon at the Red Hill Hotel. He sold five carloads of cattle in one half day. This beats all previous records in the upper end of the county. Mr. SEASHOLTZ has the reputation of selling nothing but first class stock. STRAY BULLET CUTS MANS SCALP While William KILPATRICK, of Conshohocken, was walking along the street on Tuesday he heard the report of a revolver and the next instant there was a stinging sensation in his head. On making an examination KILPATRICK found a cut across his scalp about six inches in length. It was found that a bullet had passed through his hat and grazed the scalp. The man who fired the revolver could not be located. BRICK FELL SEVEN STORIES AND STRIKES MAN A brick eluded the grasp of a bricklayer on the sixth story of a storage house in course of erection at Allentown and when it landed in the cellar it struck Phaon DIEHL's head, who was in that portion of the building at the time. He suffered a gash of two and one-half inches long.
